WWE gives fans 3 new champions.........

I expected Orton to be the new WWE champion because of the direction that will bring a fresh new outlook on the title picture....I didn't think it would end the way it did and I would have hoped that Orton/HHH would have been more of a classic physical encounter to end w/a more dramatic finish...At this point I am very happy that Orton is @ the helm..He is very deserving of that title.... Edge new World Champ & Christian new ECW Champ.....That was an awesome hat trick that was not forscene in one night....congrats to all three men...Edge however is debatable......He is accomplished and has proved that being an opportunist does really pay off....Can't wait to see what these 3 new/old faces will bring to the table...should make it very interesting......RAW tonight should be very intertaining....The taunts in the McMahon's directed by Orton should be awesome TV....Let's all tune in to see....

The 4 factors to tonights main event......

Last posting I focused on the challenger(Orton)and HHH(CHAMP)...I left the other 4 paricipants out of the picture...Why??
Well, The reason is simple...The WWE Title goes only to 2 men...How ever WWE writers chose to go w/this tonight its clear that the athletes in the ring will have to back it up w/pure action....Rhoades & Debiase vs. Batista & Shane is the addition that will allow HHH to drop the Title to Orton without actually getting pined....It takes away from the imposed legitimate finish that could really give Orton the respect he deserves from an athletic perspective......
But here's the kicker...If Orton does win....This will give RAW a complete different perspective...Fresh outlook to matches that in are incomming and the closest thing to a McMahon vs. Stonecold story line to date.....orton has it in him....Lets hope this is delivered.....

HHH vs. Randy Orton...Who will win???

This sunday once again for the WWE Championship Orton vs. HHH will headline the show....

The Champion is a very decorated performer who is a 13 time title holder...He has defeated the best in the business...It is widely known the much of the predetermined success has a lot to do with the fact that he is the chairmans son in law, however the real truth of the matter is that he backs up his good fortune with very good physical development and excellent ring work....

HHH is a true technician weather he is selling a beatdown or he is the deliverer of one....

The challenger on this night will be a 1 time World Champion, savvy, quick as a cat, possibly the finest ring general who's offense is second to none, very crisp, agressive and defiant....

Orton really does pose an incredible challenge to any opponent on any given night...and of course let's not forget his unquestionable ability to be the ultimate heel...His mic work gets the fans attention and his actions, aggresive as they are...always appear to seal the deal.....

I see Orton doing this on sunday night(I BELIEVE) what should have been done @ Wrestlemania 25, closing the deal and walking away with the WWE Chamionship........

Team 3D get the tag titles and the crowd in philly...

Philly wrestling is like no other...There was definite evidence of that by what happened @ Lockdown on sunday night...The estimated 4500 in attendance recieved a special treat when Bubba Ray & Devon stepped thru the curtain to do battle...The crowd was electric for most of the matches, but this one, stole the show.....It appears that the OLD E.C.W. has been gone, but even after a decade has passed, It is certainly not forgotten.....In the midst of the battle that insued in & out of the 6 sides of steele...The crowd chanted E.C.W ...E.C.W. ...E.C.W. ......It appeared that Team 3D embraced it & ran w/it to the fullist extent that was possible....
Let's face it, this was a T.N.A. PPV...Yet the old E.C.W. boys rule the atmosphere and the crowd let them know it...Congrats to Bubba Ray & Devon on their awesome win to combine both the IWGP & TNA Tag Team championships......All philly Wrestling fans thank you both & T.N.A. for the priveledge of seeing this live.....

Foley captures T.N.A. Gold...exclusive picture seconds after the win

Last night in Phila, history was made....My hats off to Mick Foley for the tremendous win displayed @ the Liacouras center in the temple university campus before a capacity crowd and a world wide audience on PPV....
T.N.A. wrestling really delivered BIG time....Mick, I have to say to you what I said to you once before back in the mid 90's @ the E.C.W. arena that you are the true epitemy of what a pro-wrestler is and should be....The risk envolved in just about all the matches that I have been fortunate enough to see envolving you, What you give to every spectator that buys a ticket or a PPV event in simply incredible to watch and certainly to be admired...thank you @ good luck to you...
