I'll always remember WrestleMania XX for the Goldberg/Brock match. Much like Hogan & The Rock, the crowd made it. Watching it now, the moment is somewhat lost, but Live it was something very special indeed.

I earned that half poster damn it! :x

Take your time though, no rush. :lol:


I get the honour of ripping it in half :twisted:

Just watching Raw. Orton is now getting cheered for threatening Linda and her grandchildren :lol: Orton is now approaching being an anti-hero. What a strawberry float up.

Just to gauge opinion but would anyone be up for a year long GRAPL? From now to Wrestlemania next year. Covering a full wrestling year would be interesting I think.

Austin was a badass heel that got cheered for it and eventually became megaface, Orton can't pull that off imo

Edge sure as strawberry float can though! :mrgreen:

I'd be up for participating in such an epic contest.

Aye, I was going to suggest this earlier, in fact. I think it spreads it out well, and would reward those on the money more often than not, rather than luckboxes like Corazon who do well in one event.

Is it the only one you've seen? :?

We should start it at Backlash and build up to the final at Mania 26. This serves the dual purpose of having a lengthy contest and giving Zellery a year long reign as World GRAPL Champion, meaning that when he is finally beaten it will actually mean something.

I'll pretened you put it towards a good game Jim ;)

Miz and Morrison losing title shots cleanly two days in a row on the biggest show of the year and the biggest Raw. The future is glowing.

Hopefully this means Morrison is about to get a mega-push as a singles wrestler with the annual Draft around the corner.

It has to. WWE knows Morrison and Punk work well together so push the two of them in a lengthy(ish) feud with Punk coming out on top and heading on to Orton, cashing in MITB and winning the title at Summerslam. Morrison wont look bad after a long feud with a former and soon-to-be world champ and could go on to feud with Shawn Michaels or something.

Definitely. Even if there are no prizes involved it certainly makes me more interested than I normally am in the current product. The most I've ever been into the product since the end of the Attitude era was when WWE ran that Fantasy game on their website and we had a GR league going.

Well you'll get your chance to put your faith in him in GRAPL 2!

Details later. There's going to be a new addition and a couple of minor changes.

Is there any point to this draft, any more? Last time I checked Edge & Triple H were on Smackdown, yet matches for Backlash were made on Raw last night; Vickie is now practically in control of the entire company; Chavo is on every programme going; people seem to be popping up on ECW willy nilly...I'm hoping for a shock announcement next Monday saying they're combining the brands again.

I've spent mine already too, thanks a whole heap to Rog again. :wub:

I spent mine on something slightly better than Jim though, it went towards Dexter Season 2 on DVD, I only had to pay £9 with the voucher so thanks again Rog. <3

The GRAPL Champion approves of more GRAPL! We don't even have to win prizes as I enjoy the whole taking part a lot more and it's not really fair to expect Rog to keep shelling out, he's already been more than over generous.

If we're carrying on I'll have to lose the 2009 in my title? :( Or if it resolves in Mania 26 I guess they'll be crowned 2010?

Technically you never had the title, I like to think it was a tournament to see who would win said title at the end. You were close, got to the final but ultimately got Rock-Bottomed through the announce table. 8-)

Sorry Rog - I'm ok without the half Cena poster, worried what my parents would think if they seen a half poster of a naked muscle-freak come through the door while I'm at college. Thanks anyway. :lol:
