Anyone going to be in Altoona tonight?

I thought they tore down the Jaffa Mosque?

(Quoting myself due to page bump)

Wrong mosque. Somehow confused Syria Mosque with Jaffa Mosque .

And now, for your enjoyment, my friend was kind enough to catch this fortunate picture of Jim Neidhart being caught in the act:

[steve784]

Haha I totally would've went to that in Altoona. What exactly encompasses an "Altoona Street Fight"?

[DudeMan2766]

haha. I didnt go but the last house show here Jericho and Punk had a "Wheeling Street Fight" We had a great time comming up with stories of what that involves.

[skullman80]

so I broke down and bought tickets the the WWE show here in the 18th. They say it's a televised Supershow, but with Raw being the night before, I'm assuming they are taping for Christmas Eve's Raw? I dunno, but should be a fun time, haven't been to one in a while... and taking my little brother to his first wrestling show, and my fiance as her birthday present.

Thought I saw somebody say that they were taping for RAW and Smackdown that night.

I'm in 204. Forget which row... Row G I think.

Sheamus the charterer sucks, but Sheamus the worker is awesome.

Him and Ziggler just had a PPV quality match on TV.

The ending sucked and made Ziggler look like a *****, but the match itself was awesome.

[SolidSnake]

The crowd doesn't care about Del Rio lol

[Cagsjr724]

The crowd doesn't care about Del Rio lol

No one does lol

[Cagsjr724]

WTF! What a lame ending.

[JS©]

Very WCW-like. The only thing missing was Tony Schiavone yelling "WE'RE OUT OF TIME. SEE YOU NEXT MOND....."

[Cagsjr724]

Rant time! How bad does it suck to be a pro wrestling fan these days?? WWE and TNA are both so predictable. Tonight I spent more time on my laptop on twitter, Facebook, and other threads on LGP than I did watching RAW. I see the shield, Cena, Shemus, Big Show, ect. brawling to end the show and that's it. That ending was awesome 10 years ago when you had no idea where the storyline was going. I'm just mas at myself for wasting my time watching this crap. I always say I'm done watching but still every week here I am watching the same predicable crap again.

[Sam's Drunk Dog]

I quit watching in earnest a while ago. Now I'll flip to it during commercial breaks of other shows and I definitely don't stay up to watch anymore.

[DelPen]

Why was the camera zooming in and out constantly at the end? No clue who the guys in black were, nor do I care, but the video made me want to vomit.

[shafnutz05]

Is the Shield a ripoff of Aces and Eights the Nexus the nWo?

[JS©]

no but realistically yes.

Supposedly they're not affiliated with anybody, but they've only attacked Cena, Bryan/Kane, Orton, and Sheamus.

[since1970]

I'm the strange wrestling fan. I don't care about what goes on in the ring. I enjoy storylines. I like to see how they get to what happens in the ring, but I'm at the point where this product is unwatchable, has there ever been so many performers so weak on the mic ? I appreciate their athleticism in the ring, that just doesn't excite me enough to sit thru a 5 or 10 minute match. I need the soap opera to stay interested.

[nocera]

Billy Gunn hired as developmental trainer. All of DX is now under a WWE contract. Except of course Chyna. And Rude. I'm sure it's no coincidence that HHH is a high up and DX is still being paid.

[TheHammer24]

What are they doing with Ziegler, Cena, Show, Sheamus, Kane, and Bryan? Are they really going to have Cena go after the World Heavyweight Title.

[DudeMan2766]

I have no idea. And not in a good way. It really is a mess. And with the Shield having to wrestle so soon because of Punks injury it just screams of the Nexus where its this big story then they quickly get annihilated in a main event and thats the end of that. Just when you think Dolph is moving up, he jobs AGAIN. I will say at least the Rock should be involved leading up to the Rumble and Lesnar up to WM to at least breath a tiny bit of fresh air into this. Although after Sunday it'll be 4 weeks of 30 minute Rock promo's that say the same thing over and over and over

[skullman80]

I always wondered if when the Shield said in their interview that " you can bring table, ladder, chairs, and we will bring a sword" line, was in reference to Lesnar. Probably not, but would be an interesting segway, since Lesnar has that knife/sword tattooed on his chest.

[DudeMan2766]

I may have to go into the office on Tuesday and if thats the case, since I'll be in Pittsburgh I may buy a ticket and go to the show. Taping both SmackDown and the Christmas Eve RAW. If anyone looking to unload extra tickets, please let me know
