I've been a member of this forum for over 10 years and only have 1,100 some posts Despite that fact I'm on this site every day I'm addicted to facebook and twitter Anyone who says that aren't addicted to the sites mentioned above is a liar I developed an obsession with Jersey Shore despite hating reality television before that I think zombie movies are all the same and boring, but I enjoy the TV show The Walking Dead I have seen the Gameplan and The Tooth Fairy and enjoy both movies I still use my VCR and buy and use recording VHS tapes I'm straightedge and enjoy hanging out in bars on almost a daily basis I'm a lifelong wrestling fan yet I've never met a wrestler I prefer Pepsi over Coke, yet I'm drinking a can of Coke right now I just laughed at the irony in some of the things I wrote in this post

Amazing promo, still don't want to see a rematch though.

The ending was funnier when DX did it to the McMahons and the Spirit Squad. I feel bad that Dolph got covered in human waste again.

With many posts lately about Wrestlemania, and the possibly of a Rock vs Cena rematch, I got to thinking about the reasons why, in my opinion, having a rematch between them is a bad business decision.
1. Last years match was promoted as "Once in a Lifetime" meaning its only going to happen once. A rematch will throw away that significance and possibly the importance of any future "Once in a Lifetime" matches, because fans may just assume a rematch will take place.
2. People believe "Cena needs to get his win." No, Cena doesn't "need" to beat The Rock. I know some people are upset that The Rock won, but just because he did, doesn't mean they need to have a rematch with Cena going over. The loss to The Rock was good for business because it sent the hometown crowd home happy and proved that "Super Cena" is beatable, giving hope to others that they have a chance to beat Cena and ad a huge boost to their career.
3. Unpredictability will not exist this time. With the WM28 match, you had no idea who was going to win, if a rematch is booked, everyone will expect Cena to win, and he most likely will. That could hurt business because not as many people are going to order a PPV to watch a match they saw a year ago with most likely a predictable outcome.
I said even before last years match that I didn't want to see a rematch and am sticking to that statement. I don't know what WWE has planned for Rock and Cena at Wrestlemania, but I hope that they make a smart business decision, in my opinion, and book them against other opponents.

Not a bad idea, they could say it's an injustice that The Undertaker only shows up at Wrestlemania. It would make three stars in one match, Taker would obviously go to 21-0. It's a fresh idea, and WWE could always use those.

I'm going to the Supershow tomorrow in Pittsburgh, and have a question. WWE advertised a Super Smackdown live tomorrow, which will be the first ever commericial free Smackdown. I have also heard they will tape Raw for the 24th as well. That would be around 5 hours of footage give or take (2 hours for commericial free Smackdown, plus 3 more for Raw). How are they going to pull this off?

Two questions regarding the Miz TV segment
What were they chanting about Cody's mustache? I heard them say "_____ mustache" what was the word I didn't catch?
Did anyone tell the writers that the term "pink and stink" refers to a very non-pg activity?

As long as we don't have a Rock vs. Cena rematch at Wrestlemania, I'm fine with whatever the card is

I feel most 3 hours Raws drag, but have become used to them and feel a jump back to two hours would make the show seem rushed now. If the network is happy with them, I don't see it going back to two hours anytime soon.

Has anyone here ever dealt with the company American Income Life? I am asking this because I interviewed with them yesterday for a position and have heard some shady things about the company.
The position is a Benefits Rep selling life insurance to the customers of American Income Life. The position pays weekly on pre-paid weekly salary, weekly bonuses, and weekly advances. On average you can start at $1,200 a week, not to bad, especially starting out.
The catch is, they want you pay $175 before you start training to take a class and pass a test to earn the selling license, (cost covers the material and hours of the class they said). Then, they want you to enter a training program after passing the test, which I have heard by looking at company reviews online, is 12-hours a day and UNPAID.
My understanding is that they expect you to pay $175 up front for a class and test, then spend about two weeks in UNPAID training before you even go to work? It sounds like a easy decision to turn down an offer. The conflicting part is that I have been out of work for almost four months and my bank account is shrinking dangerously low. I have to consider any offer I have at this point, but I'm not sure this is worth it with all the possible shadiness up front.

Just read this, I call BS. How do you injure your knee getting powerbombed through a table? Also, WWE has mentioned several times in the past Dr. Andrews is located in Birmingham, Al. not Pensacola, FL.
Does anyone else find it a strange coincidence that this happens on the day he ties John Cena as the 6th longest raining WWE Champion in history?

Torrie Wilson was on Smackdown for most of her career and Smackdown didn't have a Women's or Divas' championship until 2008, after she left. They may be a factor into why she never had a title run.

Vegas Employer: Obama Won, So I Fired 22 Employees lasvegas.cbslocal.com/2012/11/07/vegas-employer-obama-won-so-i-fired-22-employees/This is an article about an employer in Las Vegas getting rid of 22 employees because of Obama being re-elected. I'm no expert by any means, but isn't it illegal, on the grounds of wrongful termination, to fire employees in this circumstance? The article goes on about Obamacare and its cost, which the owner uses to cover up his actions as best he can.
