How can their be a Lawsuit when Vince owns like 90% of the voting share. When you buy that stock, you know what you're getting into(re no voice). You only buy it for the dividend.
Also:
-- During one of the video packages that aired during Raw and after the show concluded, Lillian Garcia announced how WWE is handling the refunds for people who attended last night's RAW. If you paid by credit card, you be refunded automatically and it will appear on your next statement. If you paid in cash, you could get a refund either last night at the arena or sometime this week at the Resch Center Box Office
So the WWE is giving the scalpers the refund:lol

I didnt know living to be 50 was such a big deal or something to be despised or ridiculed. Of course, not many former WWF, or even todays WWE, wrestlers hang around alive long enough to celebrate their 50th birthday.

Wow.
They could have at least let Donald throw in a line about thinking about selling the show to his billionaire friend Ted, which would have at least made McMahon bidding against himself makes sense.

Really? Other than having used steroids he seems like a guy who lives clean and stays in shape, kinda like Steamboat. And it's not like wrestling took much of a toll on his body since he barely took any bumps.

He says Angle doesn't owe him an explanation..but he owes Sting one and Joe owes AJ one, but what Angle does owe him is a rematch at Victory Road. Angle wants Foley to cry, says he is a disgrace and has no power. Angle says he can choose his opponent at Victory Road according to his contract. Foley says at Victory Road, this crybaby is gonna kick his ass. Angle says, if you want something from the MEM, you have to give something back..how about we go back to Foley's office and talk about things.

They offer Team 3D their rematch anytime, but Scott Steiner & Booker T come out.

*Scott Steiner defeated Robert Roode.
JB is backstage with Kurt Angle, we learn that Sting is on his way and he wants answers.
AJ Styles comes to the ring to discuss what happened and calls Samoa Joe out to the ring. AJ asks if it was the money and says they had a plan. He said he turned his back on him, the company & the fans and screwed himself when he gave Angle the TNA Title. He wants to know who got in his head, who made him think it was all worth it. Joe says he can ask himself at Victory Road. Matt Morgan comes down and helps Joe beat down on Styles until Daniels makes the save. Nash, Booker & Steiner come down and beat down on Daniels & Styles...but then Sting walks down and the mafia leave the ring. Sting looks down at Styles & Daniels who are helped out by Security before taking the mic. MEM slowly start making their way back into the ring and Angle restrains Joe from Sting.

Morgan says Kurt had everything to do with this. Sting confronts the remaining members. He tells Nash he expected more from him, Nash basically says he went to bat for Sting in every instance. Nash says Sting's plan isn't working,but Angle's is...this honor, dignity and respect is bullsh**, and its all about money. You can make friends and you can make money but you can't do both in this business. Sting says this isn't about Oz, Big D or Big Sexy but the heart of Kevin Nash..he offers him the bat to take him out to get his place in the mafia, Sting turns his back and pulls out second bat and attacks Nash before he can attack him, fends off the majority of the Mafia until Joe picked up the second bat and attacks Sting with it. The MEM then all beat down on Sting helplessly.

Postmatch, Scott Steiner, Booker T and Kevin Nash come down to celebrate with Joe and Angle. Styles grabs his Legends Title and goes to chase off MEM. He eventually hits Samoa Joe but the remaining Mafia members come back into the ring and beat down Styles gangland style while Jarrett was still unconscious.

Sting takes out the members of the Mafia and grabs the TNA World Title. The lights go back out and not only has Sting disappeared but so has Angle's TNA World Title.

Smackdown spoilers:
Credit: Pwinsider.com
* Show opens with Justin Roberts announcing the chairman, Mr. McMahon. Comes down, starts off kind of like a babyface, then starts complaining about the stench. Talks about cheeseheads, cutting the cheese. Then he figures out what it is: the stench of fear. Runs down the fans, says most would get fired if they were graded solely on performance. Brought out General Manager Teddy Long, asked him what was planned for the show. Teddy said there was a tag match, Jeff/Rey against Edge/Jericho.
* McMahon said that wasn't good enough, Teddy said it's a cage match, and the ref will be CM Punk. McMahon decided to put Teddy on probation.
* Opening match saw R Truth beat Shelton Benjamin in 8:52. Pre-match, Shelton cut a promo talking down to Truth for not getting a proper education, making fun of the lyrics in Truth's song ("You can be..."). Looked like they headed to commercial around the 2 minute mark. At one point, Truth seemed to botch a jawbreaker on Shelton, and they re-did it better. Furthermore, Shelton did the old German-Suplex-into-a-near fall combo, but he didn't bridge it. As a result, both of 'em had their shoulders down. *shrug*
* Backstage, they did a segment with Vince, Teddy and Rey Mysterio. Vince talked about the mask and Rey's match with Jericho, Rey responded in Spanish. Vince was mad, asked Teddy what Rey said, and said Smackdown would be English-only.
* Later tonight: Punk vs. Morrison
* Next match was Divas tag action, Alicia Fox and Michelle McCool defeat Gail Kim and Melina in maybe 6 or 7 minutes (forgot to time this one) Melina got kicked in the mouth early, and sold it for a little while. Gail finally got the hot tag after at least 5 minutes, and had a pretty good counter while on the apron; Fox (I think) went for a shoulder to the gut from inside the ring, Gail jumped it and came down on her back. Gail hit a cross body block off the top after that, but then McCool got a blind tag and hit the Styles Clash (or whatever it is she calls it) for the pin and the win.
* To the back, with Punk, Teddy and Vince. They talk Money in the Bank and Straight Edge. Vince talks down to Teddy some more.
* Dolph Ziggler/Great Khali at The Bash, No DQ.
* For the top of the hour main event, John Morrison beat world champion CM Punk in 14:36. Morrison made his entrance, then I think they'll take a break, as he posed for a while, and even pointed out a "Shaman of Veggies" sign in my section. First 3 minutes were quite slow, but it picked up after that. Punk hit a German into a bridge pin on Morrison for 2 (unlike Shelton, Punk actually DID bridge), and John seemed to be shaken up from landing high on the German. Punk tried a sunset flip powerbomb to the outside, Morrison countered by dropping a knee across Punk's neck. Back in the ring, Punk countered an attempted running knee from John into a single-leg Boston Crab. After escaping from that, Morrison hit his springboard kick for a VERY long 2 count, then went up top for what seemed to be a moonsault. Punk cut him off first, and hit a second-rope reverse suplex for a 2 count. Morrison rolled Punk up for 2, Punk countered for a 2 count of his own, then Morrison countered back into another pinning combination for the 3 count and victory. Crowd was surprised by the suddenness of the finish. Post-match, Punk offered Morrison a handshake, then got him up and hit the GTS.
* Josh Matthews interviewed Jericho in back, who said he knows what's best for Rey. Pretty typical Jericho promo, and not half-bad in my view.
* Then, time for the typical "stand in the ring and go over the PPV card" segment. Whee.
* They played the cage lowering music, then went to the back where Teddy and Vince were with Jeff Hardy. Vince said he didn't want Jeff to win because of his past... doesn't want Jeff to be representing the show. Now time for the main event, Jeff and Rey against Jericho and Edge in a tag-team cage match, with special guest ref CM Punk.
Punk came out first in his ref shirt, and was booed. Both Jeff and Rey got big pops for coming out. Jeff, after coming out first, climbed up on top of the cage and hung out up there while Rey made his entrance. The two did some posing on top together, then climbed down while Jericho was coming down. Bunch of loud pyro for this match. Jeff and Rey hit Poetry in Motion early, eventually Rey went for an escape. He was stopped, so hit a cross body block from the top rope.
At one point, Jericho was sitting on the top turnbuckle, and Jeff and Rey knocked Edge's head right into his crotch. By my count, there were 3 crotch shots this match; one low dropkick by Rey, the head-to-crotch one, and one more that I didn't see very well, but I certainly saw Edge's face afterward. Right after that, Rey hit a hurancanrana from the top. Jericho regained control, tried to rip of Rey's mask while on the top rope. Rey pushed him off, then jumped at him. Y2J countered with a dropkick.
Rey finally got the hot tag to Jeff at the 12:30 mark in the match. Edge went for a spear on Jeff, but he moved and Edge speared CM Punk instead. A couple near-falls later, the finish came about. Jeff went for a Twist of Fate, Edge pushed him away, towards Punk. The two glared at each other, and Jeff turned around into a spear from Edge. 1-2-3, it's over.
* Post-match (and post-show, I believe), Punk got on the mic and told us to give it up for Jeff, before saying that he's still better. He got in the ring, then Jeff hit a Twist of Fate and Swanton to send the crowd home happy. After Jeff left and the cage was raised, Punk was left in the ring alone. For some reason, there ended up being a replica world title belt put in the ring, and Punk kicked it onto the floor, looking angry. Kind of weird.

Must not highlight Smackdown spoilers. I used to read the spoilers all the time since I could rarely catch it, but now I can actually watch the show so old habits die hard.
People were talking about the Attitude era the last few pages so I found this:
Rock vs. Austin at WM X-Seven
The last match of the Attitude era. It's actually kind of haunting to watch it now, especially JR's last line. The video is a bit grainy, but look at the insane amount of flashes that go off when Austin and Rock both do their poses. When I was a kid I watched this PPV with my dad and we had a ton of food and snacks like it was the Super Bowl.

Anyone else think that there's going to be some sort of Vince and Punk alliance. I get the feeling after reading Vince's comments on Jeff, and him talking straight edge with Punk.
Aww man that takes me back. WM 17 was the first PPV I ever watched. The whole thing delivered, but that last match was so awesome. I watched it with my aunt and my cousins, and they marked out like crazy when Austin won, while little ol Rock-loving me was mad as hell.:lolForkball said:
Another favorite from that one was Angle and Benoit, though that goes without saying as most of their matches were awesome.

Angle v Benoit: Ultimate Submission
6/24 Impact Tapings spoilers-
ay Lethal defeated Johnny Gordado during Lethal's entrance, he handed his headband & robe to SoCal Val, but threw it in her face, she threw them down, turned her back and walked away..leaving them at ringside.
*The Main Event Mafia comes out to the ring
. Kurt says he knows Sting is home licking his wounds, but it wasn't personal it was all business. He calls out Mick Foley who comes to the ring with his security team. Kurt immediately cuts off Foley who tries to speak and says he's crossed the line. He says he went over his head and lied to the Godfather. Rocco & Sally Boy stand in front of Foley, he says do your best. Steiner & Joe attack them & take them out. Foley says to just let him wrestle at Victory Road. Lets make a deal...Kurt says, door #1 he kicks his ass, door 2 its Booker 2. Nash is 3 and behind the curtain he unleashes Samoa Joe. He says he picks #1 and immediately hits Angle..the Mafia beat him down until Jeff Jarrett makes his way to the ring with his guitar. The Mafia runs off and heads away from ringside, Foley gets to his feet and Jarrett nails him with his guitar. The Mafia begin smiling as Jeff goes up the ramp through them, Angle slaps his chest..and Jarrett looks back at him with disgust before heading back down the babyface tunnel. The Mafia look confused and try to look for Jarrett.
*TNA Tag Team Champions, Beer Money come out to join West & Tenay for the following match. Scott Steiner & Booker T def Team 3D. Halfway through the match, Kiyoshi & Bashir come out & attack Beer Money at the commentary table. It looked like 3D was about to get the win. Rob Terry & Doug Williams attacked Devon at ringside, Brother Ray was left alone in the ring.. Brutus Magnus attacked him with the briefcase allowing Booker T to get the pin. Post match, Steiner attacked a fan at ringside and pulled him over the guardrail.

*Sting comes out to the ring with the TNA title. He says he knows Kurt is watching and he has his belt..you want it, come get it. But in the meantime, he wants to talk to Joe, who comes out to the top of the ramp and makes his way to the ring. Sting tells him that he is the reason why wrestling and this company are as bad as they are right now. He's not willing to work for anything and expect things handed to him. He said he can fight this fight alone. Joe said, fortunately for Sting, he's been told to keep his temper. Sting asks who is in his ear, who's telling him, who is pulling his strings. Joe says he's going to say it one last time and you'll find out at Victory Road. Sting says he's going to find him tonight..pull him from the shadows bring him to the ring..tear him apart and feed him to the fans.
