Immortality Has a Price, brother!
On August 21, 2005 WWE presents Summerslam live from Washington D.C. You know the hometown of the “Beasta” Batista! There’s no way he’d lose in his hometown, right? Anyway, the show looks promising, as lots of titles to be decided, (not the Cruiserweight, World Tag, Women’s, Intercontinental, or WWE Tag though). But seriously what’s the point of having all these titles if they’re never defended on a PPV? It makes no sense. WWE is in a grudge match mode (you can see that by looking at the card of Wrestlemania 21). What gives?
Regardless, as you can see the game has evolved, somewhat. There are no subtime submissions. Just make your picks in the thread. The person with the most correct picks will receive an unopened Shawn Michaels: Boyhood Dream DVD. This is due to subtime being borderline worthless these days. I went out and bought a few budget WWE DVDs just for this. Nice, huh? For those not familiar with the DVD here’s a picture. In the event of a tie, the names will be placed in a hat, and the winner receives the DVD.
Now onto the game

United States Championship
Chris Benoit vs. Orlando Jordan
Does anybody care about this match? I sure as hell don’t. I’m going to put as much effort into this match description as the WWE did with this feud/match. There I’m finished.
As you can see in the picture, Kurt Angle is quite angry. Furthermore, you can also tell that Eugene is quite retarded. Seriously though, this feud (one of Raw’s most entertaining), started when Eugene won Kurt Angle’s Gold medal Invitational, not to be confused with the Eugene invitational, the Masterlock Invitational, or the Heidenreich/Animal Invitational (the go and beat a few jobbers every week on SD). It will be an entertaining match that will likely open up the show.
What does RKO + IP - KO equal. RIP if you did that right. Undertaker has been showing us his mathematical skills week in and week out on SD, by one-upping the Legend Killer round every turn. This feud began when Orton put an “unidentified foreign object” in Undertaker’s gym-bag backstage. Needless to say the Prince of Darkness got pretty pissed. He began chasing Orton everywhere on WWE TV with his portable fog machine. Even when Orton was having a high-octane encounter with Kamala, Undertaker is that determined. It’s obvious this match will be good. But with the boring “even-steven” booking style the WWE has been utilizing lately (One wrestler wins a match at a big PPV, then they have a rematch at another PPV only to have the other wrestler win), it seems slightly predictable.
Rey Mysterio w/o Dominick vs. Eddie Guerrero w/ a six match losing streak
No this is not the Maury show, this is for real! It was revealed that Eddie is actually Dominick’s father, and Eddie now wants custody. The court system has decided to hold off on a verdict as to who will get custody of Dominick. They just couldn’t decide. The official verdict was:
We’re just not sure who to give little Dom to, so how about you two have a match at Summerslam to determine his fate? I’d personally like to see a ladder match with these here custody papers, don’t worry I’ll give them to a referee, hanging in the balance. By the way, why are you always wearing a mask, Rey?
So there it was. Our judicial system, decided to determine a boy’s path through life in a wrestling match. As you can tell this storyline is insane, but just to throw in another laugh, here’s from the preview on WWE.com
“In the meantime, Dominick is in foster care until these two Superstars and former friends and tag team partners settle their differences.” I wonder who Dominick’s foster parents are rooting for? Better yet, they should have a camera set up in Dominick’s foster home, showing Dominick, his “brothers” and “sisters” watching Summerslam. That would be great. But seriously, how did Rey father his daughter? Did Rey steal another baby? Here’s to hoping my favorite little 8-year old bleach blonde haired Mexican goes home to his real dad…
Matt Hardy =/= Kane anymore. Matt Hardy is back, and he’s pissed at Adam “Edge” Copeland, something about Adam having raunchy sex with Matt’s girlfriend. Somewhere, Kane sheds a single tear, as Matt Hardy took his place. Expect this match to only set the stage for another encounter at the next PPV (double DQ anyone?).
JBL vs. Batista
This may be the worst storyline on any brand in the WWE right now. And with Eddie/Rey being present, that’s saying a lot. This is the most boring feud involving a World Title in quite some time. I guess this storyline is basically about JBL being a bully or something. But take it from me, Batista, if you’re 300 pounds of solid muscle, am I really supposed to believe you’re being bullied around by JBL? That is a question we must get past for me to not crap on this “storyline,” Dave. Basically every SD ends with JBL or Batista mindlessly interfering in a match involving the other. It’s fudging boring. I hate you Stephanie!!
Hogan no-showed my photo shoot! It wasn’t a big enough payoff 
Hulk Hogan vs. Shawn Michaels
This match obviously has the most buildup. In Hulk’s aging body though, I doubt it’s possible to pull off a classic, regardless of HBK being in his prime. But just for fun, let’s see what Kevin Nash thinks about the match. This was taken from an interview with WWE.com
”WWE.com: What do you think we can expect from this match?
Nash: I just pray the young guys sit around the monitors and keep their mouths shut and watch how it’s done. If they want to see how to work and not do high spots and Chinese Firedrill and just want to see how it’s done – sit down and watch Shakespeare.”
Kevin Nash believes this will be a 5-star classic, but I just can’t take his word seriously. The way he’s talking, I’d think he’s referring to HBK/Angle or Flair/Steamboat, but HBK/Hogan?!?! Come on, big Kev. You’ve lost even more credibility in my book. I just refuse to believe Hogan can pull off another classic, especially after gauging his performance in the last few tag matches. Let’s face it, brother, the Hulkster’s tank is running on empty.
Chris Jericho vs. John Cena**
I love Chris Jericho. I’m just beginning to like John Cena a little. I believe this will be the best match at Summerslam. The only negative thing about this match is that it’s so damn predictable. For those who don’t know, it’s been widely reported that Chris Jericho is taking a much-deserved break from wrestling following Summerslam. Secondly, the Unforgiven poster has already been released advertising Kurt Angle vs. John Cena for the WWE Title. Why do that WWE? Why? I can understand the fact that Jericho’s leave of absence getting leaked, it’s only natural. But with the Unforgiven poster already being released, it kills any credibility Jericho once had. I guess that’s why they’re going with the Hogan/Michaels as the “premier” match of the night. What threat does Jericho pose to the title? Absolutely none, I say. But what do I know? The good thing is Jericho has had a highly entertaining title program, it’s the only one he’s gotten since losing the title at Wrestlemania 18 in 2002. I sincerely hope that Jericho/Cena steal the show, as the Title match always deserves top billing in my opinion.

Chris Benoit vs. Orlando Jordan
If Benoit loses 2 months in a row to this guy, his career is oficially dead.
Kurt Angle vs Eugene
Should be a good match.
Randy Orton vs The Undertaker
Rey Mysterio vs Eddie Guerrero
Matt Hardy vs Edge
I'm expecting a draw, so I won't choose either of them.
Batista vs Bradshaw
Shawn Michaels vs Hulk Hogan
Time for Hulkamania to job.
John Cena vs Y2J
Should be a damn good match.

The stakes have risen....(dum dum DUUMM)
I'm thinking of getting this PPV. I haven't bought one since New Years Crap-olution.....
Ok, me picks:
Chris Benoit vs. Orlando Jordan
Eugene vs. Kurt Angle
Randy Orton vs. The Undertaker
Rey Mysterio vs. Eddie Guerrero
Edge vs. Matt Hardy(If Matt doesn't win, it'll be a no contest. I don't think they brought Matt back just so he can lose, and I don't think they are going to waste Edge's push as of late, so...)
Batista vs. JBL
John Cena vs. Chris Jericho
HBK vs. Hulk Hogan

That's mighty nice of you scrotch. If I had more preparation, I'd do something similar for the upcoming UFC event. In any case, here are my picks:
Chris Benoit over Orlando Jordan
Eugene over Kurt Angle
Undertaker over Randy Orton
Rey Mysterio over Eddie Guerrero
Matt Hardy over Edge
Batista over JBL
John Cena over Chris Jericho
Shawn Michaels over Hulk Hogan
I'll probably have most of these wrong, as I only have one real "upset." That's the way I'd like to see it go, though.

Taken from Bill's major announcement:
"I did manage to make several significant improvements in that time, but the income I got was quite low. It saddens me that I wasn't able to make this work. But, life goes on. I'm still dedicated to trading and keeping the site going. But, it will need to be a hobby for me, not a

I gladly paid $20 a year to use this site and will continue to do so. The bottom-line is, most others weren't willing to do so. I've got a ton of trades and I've made plenty of traders happy, so I'd say I'm a decent contributor of the site. Seems to me like your the one with the crapty attitude that helps no one.

Alas, perhaps you should have contributed to the site more then and purchased enough subtime to pay off sportbettor in a timely fashion then. The site would have thrived!

I just hope that they don't make Batista job to JBL, and the Rey and Eddie story got old, quick. And I really don't believe that if Kurt Angle worked his ass off to win a gold medal, with "a broken freakin' neck" that they'll let Eugene keep it.

If they do this, I will not watch Smackdown. I really can't stand JBL. He's a boring wrestler and his act is overdone. Hell, I'd rather see a Batista/Randy Orton feud.

That it did. Not quite sure where they'll go after this, but let's hope that storyline gets axed.

I can definitely see him losing. I don't know if you watched wrestling back in the day, but there was a character named Barry Harrowitz (Something like that) who defeated some fitness freak on several occasions. I believe that fitness freak was Hardcore Holly, but don't quote me on that. In any case, I can see Eugene winning just to keep the feud alive.

If subtime wasn't borderline worthless, then we'd still be subscriber only. In trying to draw people into a competition, subtime doesn't have the pull it once did. It's not being ungrateful, it's telling the truth. I'm not sure why it offends you to no end if I say subtime is borderline worthless these days....it is.
