Didn't even know he had one out either. Thanks to you Silvervision will be up one sale!

It only came out a few months ago, back in November I think.

Get in.

I'm not doing too badly. Rog, did I miss any PPVs at all?

Some bad news if you were looking forward to more Best of Raw DVDs:

WWE has cancelled its planned RAW: The Best of Seasons 3 & 4 DVD set due to low sales of RAW"The Beginning": The Best of Seasons 1 & 2

1995 & 1996 was gooseberry fool anyway, so you're not missing much.

Thankfully for the UK, SilverVision still have Best of WWF Raw Volume's 1 to 13 sitting around, so they'll probably release that again at some point.

In similar news, the Nitro DVD is out in the US on the 7th June (so probably around August/September for us) & will be a 3 disc set. Would have liked an extra disc, but what can you do. Maybe Silvervision will get a bonus like they did with the 15th Anniversary Raw, & give us the 1st episode of Nitro.

I'm looking forward to that Nitro DVD more than I was the Raw one. Can't wait.

As SmackDown is coming from Sacramento this week, I thought it'd be a good excuse to repost this...

I actually think Rock was at his very best as a heel in 2003.

Rock was awesome as a heel.

Ignoring his original debut in WWF below, Rock obviously spent quite a while as a top heel before going face, he truely could play both parts and remain at the top of his game.

Pell drops a few points over his rivals with his risks not paying off. He had more than enough of a lead to chance it though. Drumstick wins the PPV by managing that one point more than what seemed like everyone.

Thanks to the newcomers we now have our 50th GRAPL entrant So no surprises. Pell is still top but now his lead is only 7 points. given that the final round has 27 points available he still has plenty of room to throw it away. Looks like the big feud is for third place. Only the top three get prizes remember.

Cock it - had Edge, Rey and CM all right (and proof of it saved) but switched just in case. Argh! Then again, I switched to Miz so can't complain too much.

Oh dear- what a terrible debut for me in GRAPL :lol:

TBH some of my predictions were based on my dislike of some wrestlers but expect a much better round from me next time! (maybe

)

If anyones interested, E (Channel 151 on sky) are showing documentary Wrestling with Demons: Robin Ethics. Seems very interesting. Been on since 11pm though.

Raw did a 3.9 rating, & 5.8 million viewers.

That's a strong rating. I wonder how many of them thought The Rock would be on it and now won't tune in next week as they feel lied to.

Oh yeah, i have heard about him and read a couple of interviews with him but never looked at his blog.

Only 7 points in it between me and Pell. Cena/Miz is going to be crucial and right now I'm tempted to risk going for Miz
