An Irishman Is Wwe Champ !

[spongeman]

Just to let you all know Sheamus from Dublin, Ireland, became the WWE champ defeating John Cena in a tables match last night.

GO ON THE SHEAMUS.

[spongeman]

What are ye going to do when Sheamus runs wild on you

[spongeman]

[spongeman]

And then yesterday he won a slammy award for best impact by a newcomer !

Can anyone halt the unstoppable Sheamus ?

[powderpuff]

Yeah & Rowdy Roddy Piper was Scottish. Only problem was he spoke with a Canadian Accent.

[powderpuff]

Stephen Farrelly

6'6" 280 lbs. This guy is huge. Right up there with Kane Undertaker & Batista.

Is this the first ever wrestling thread in Thaivisa ??

Having lost to Cena at Bragging Rights, Randy Orton was barred from challenging for the title whilst Cena was champion.

So, they give the belt to Sheamus as a transitional champion to bring Orton back into the title picture.

Expect to see Sheamus dropping the belt to Orton at the next PPV.

Just a thought.

Orton vs the Champ ? Bring it on !

As rigged as it is, as bad as the dialogues are and as corny as the acting is, why do I find myself watching it for hours on end at night?

PS. The Undertaker rules! (there's no hope left for me now!)

Yeah Its entertaining and does'nt take itself too seriously.

UT is getting on a bit now.

[spongeman]

Phew Cena won by DQ last night, So Sheamus retains the title !

Rejoice.

I see that Cena has taken to wearing orange wrist and arm bands in the ring.

Coincidence? Or a subtle hint that his feud with the Celtic warrior is going to be lengthy?

Nah! Must be coincidence; nothing the WWE does is subtle!

On another issue; Bret Hart hosting Raw next week. Hart v Michaels?

That would be something else. I note HHH did'nt come out to welcome Hart.........

Change the merchandise, so all the fans want the new stuff.

You are right.......nothing subtle at all !!!!

Royal Rumble = Orton vs The Celtic Warrior.

A Barnstormer for sure.

I note HHH didn't come out to welcome Hart.........

At the time of the Montreal Screw Job, HHH was fairly junior, and subordinate to Michaels.

According to Micheals' book, the screw job was plotted by him and McMahon, with HHH playing a very minor role.

I think the 'burying the hatchet' moment between Hart and Michaels was genuine, as was the reconciliation between Hart and McMahon; with McMahon's low blow and subsequent comments being a work and pure kayfabe.

This seems to be confirmed by this Wikipedia quote

Bret returned on the January 4, 2010 episode of Raw, and, after airing their grievances with each other, he buried the hatchet with Shawn Michaels by shaking hands and embracing in the ring. While many cast doubts on the sincerity of their reconciliation, Hart has confirmed that it was indeed genuine. Later in the night, a storyline between Hart and McMahon began with the two appearing to have their own reconciliation only to have McMahon subsequently kick Hart in the groin: in real life, Hart and McMahon have been on speaking terms since 2006. Hart said of the ongoing storyline with McMahon: "I hate to tell you what's going to happen... I don't want to ruin it for anybody."

Orton v Sheamus at the Royal Rumble; there's a surprise! Sorry, mate, but my money's on Orton.

I agree with ye about the Michaels thing.

It will be tough for Sheamus at the Rumble. Then an Elimination Chamber match......tough.

[7by7]

It is unusual for a relative newcomer to get a push the way Sheamus has without them first having to work there way up the roster via the Intercontinental or USA championship. It is also rare for a championship match to be heel v heel.

So, my thoughts:

Orton wins the WWE Championship at the Rumble; Triple H wins the rumble match, setting up a repeat of last years Wrestlemania where HHH defeated Orton.

It is well known that HHH wants to equal Flair's record of 15 world titles, or even beat it. Whilst recognised that he is one of the best 'sellers' in the business, it is rumoured that his ego is as well developed as his other attributes! Being the boss's son-in-law means that what Hunter wants, Hunter usually gets.

Sheamus, meanwhile, after dropping the title to Orton is returned to ECW for a while. Look what happened to Kozlov.

[spongeman]

Phew i thought he was going to drop the belt at the Rumble. This is a major push.

Elimination chamber next : Sheamus / Orton / Kingston / Dibiase / HHH / Cena.

its going to be tough for the Celtic Warrior.

[TheWalkingMan]

I used to love watching this stuff. I think I saw a torrent was available for this event.

I remember watching Haystack Cowhoon (spelling), going to the Cow Palace in San Francisco and screaming, "We want some juice!!" With juice being blood Gotta love the 80's. Need to stop typing as I am getting a little misty...

Ladders and tables and chairs! The Dudley boys, those were some hard core matches...

The last live match I saw was a few years ago at the Shin-Yokohama Arena. It was alright, but the prices were wayyyy out there for seats.

So much for my predictive powers! Should have guessed that Edge was due back from injury.

its going to be tough for the Celtic Warrior.

Well, as tough as the bookers (writers) decide it's going to be!

My money is still on HHH regaining the belt at Wrestlemania.

Edge v The Deadman should be good.

Still, the infighting that will occour in the wwe chamber match may work to the Champs favour.

Kingston/Orton/Dibiase for starters.

[spongeman]

Elimination chamber tonight.....

My money is on the Ginger powerhouse,

[spongeman]

Drat. He was dethroned last night.

[spongeman]

[spongeman]

The ginger warrior returned to action on Raw this week, sneak attacking HHH with 2 bicycle kicks.

Wrestlemania matchup methinks.......

[spongeman]

Update.....

The Celtic Warrior lost a close match to HHH at WM26.

He however redeemed himself by sneak attacking HHH with a pipe on RAW.

ALL HAIL SHEAMUS

[spongeman]

I know all of you are chomping at the bit for a Sheamus update......

He put HHH on the shelf at extreme rules.

Hurray.

[spongeman]

Rejoice, the Celtic Warrior won the WWE title at the fatal four way PPV.

Why is this historic event not on the Thai Visa breaking news ??????
