| #1 Posted on 26.6.02 1609.24 | There are some Smackdown spoilers here, so beware! BEWAAAARE!!
Now that's over with, let's examine the RAW & Smackdown rosters: Brock Lesnar [RAW] Chris Nowinski [RAW] Jazz [RAW] Deacon Batista [SD] Jamie Noble [SD] Maven [SD] Nidia [SD] Randy Orton [SD] Rico [SD] John Cesa (formerly known as Prototype) [SD]
All these competitors have either debuted or come into their own during the past year. Is the WWF trying to FINALLY build up new blood after seeing The Rock and Stone Cold gone for a while? And which of these new guys are good? WHY? Let's hype up the HOT YOUNG TALENT, instead of bitching about the UnderSeller or anything else.
Personally, I love Maven. He's the man.

I think he's a "can't miss" prospect. Cornette and the rest of the OVW training staff are doing a bang-up job in Kentuckiana.

No, it's this Sunday. So we'll find out then.
And also, you can add Rob Conway to the SmackDown list.

| #7 Posted on 26.6.02 2009.05 | I'm liking Chris Nowinski so far (much better than on TE1,) but Randy Orton's got some major league potential.

Hey the whole Newblood vs. Millionares could have really kicked ass. Of course the old guys would actually have to have lost half the matches and sold for the young guys. I really wanted to watch Kidman pin Hogan. And how did WCW mess up having the current ECW champ in their roster? At least they should have had Awesome throw the title in the trash. Looking back WCW had some good ideas they just never followed through with them. Good thing the WWE has that laser like focus.

I kind of liked the Stone Cold Terry Bollea gimmick. His match with Kidman at Uncensored was top notch.
FUNB, Brother!

| #13 Posted on 27.6.02 2105.03 | The new guys really did well on Smackdown.
Cena was AMAZING in the ring with Kurt Angle - I actually believed he might have won. Orton continued to improve in that tag match...but Deacon Batista....oh my god! He is HUGE!!! And that clothesline on Orton was insane!
