WWE Unforgiven Preview and Predictions
WWE UNFORGIVEN: RETURN OF THE DEADMAN
Sunday, September 16, 2007
WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP:
Paul London & Brian Kendrick vs. Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch
London and Kendrick are a fast, exciting team that can awe the audience with their fast pace, high-risk style. Cade and Murdoch are the bigger brawlers, who really work well together and are a classic example of an old-school Southern heel tag team. Put these two teams together, and it's just fun to watch because their styles are so different, yet they complement each other in an exciting way. They swapped the titles around twice during the recent tour of South Africa, so this is the rubber match of their title match series. Cade and Murdoch have pretty much dominated the tag-team scene on RAW for the past few months, but now might be the time to get the titles off of them. The audience will be firmly behind London and Kendrick, and those two really deserve a major push and extending run with the championship. For this match, I'm liking Paul London and Brian Kendrick as the new World Tag Team Champions.
WWE WOMEN'S CHAMPIONSHIP:
Candice Michelle vs. Beth Phoenix
Finally, WWE has built up a monster diva who knows how to wrestle. I'll give Candice all the credit and respect in the world, she's really went above and beyond what was expected of her in an attempt to be a better wrestler. With more time, she could even become a great women's wrestler like Trish Stratus. But, now is not her time. Now is the time that WWE really pushes a woman that knows how to wrestle and can have a great match with Mickie James or Jillian Hall, or another diva of similar skill (like Victoria). The Glamazon has really been impressive, even dominating as of late. The reign of Candice Michelle has come to an end, unless Phoenix just goes crazy and beats the hell out of her to get a DQ. I think the odds are overwhelming that we will see a new Women's Champion in Beth Phoenix.
WWE TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP:
MVP & Matt Hardy vs. Deuce N' Domino
The MVP/Matt Hardy feud is the best storyline in all of mainstream wrestling today, and this match will just be another chapter of that. Realistically, neither man should want to lose the championship and their storyline is progressing along well enough where ending their title run now would probably hurt their competitive feud. I like Deuce N' Domino, their gimmick is awesome and they're pretty good in the ring as well... not to mention Cherry is smoking hott! Right now though, MVP and Matt Hardy are the best Smackdown has to offer, from a storyline and in-ring aspect. Having them lose the titles now wouldn't really make much sense, and would probably cause the feud to lose a little of its steam, unless something major happened to offset the lose. For those reasons, I think we'll be seeing MVP & Matt Hardy retaining the WWE Tag Team Championship.
THE RETURN OF THE DEADMAN:
Mark Henry vs. The Undertaker
After just a few months of being on the injured list, The Undertaker finally returns, and Smackdown could really use him. Mark Henry has been at his best ever recently, which means he's improved from sucking to being okay. I didn't hate their match at WrestleMania a year or two ago, so I assume this one will be a decent "big man" match up, plust Undertaker always makes something out of nothing. As dominant as Henry has been, you know there is no way in hell The Undertaker will lose his return match, it just ain't going to happen. I assume the Deadman will put an end to this feud and begin moving towards a program to get his World Heavyweight Championship back. Your winner, The Undertaker.
NO DQ FOR CARLITO:
Triple H vs. Carlito
Interesting match up here, with the stipulation being that Carlito can do anything he wants to Triple H without being disqualified, while Triple H has to follow the rules. Triple H has been his typical self since coming back. He's a great wrestler and entertainer, but you just can't get anything over on the guy because he's treated like God... which is worse than Super Cena. Carlito has looked good for a while now, and this could be a major break for him. Unfortunately, this match is just something for Triple H to do since Booker quit and Kennedy is suspended. I'm sure we'll see Triple H bleed like a pig in this match, yet never enough damage to pin him. Eventually, he'll get pissed and nail Carlito with a chair or sledgehammer, and thus get disqualified yet still come out on top. Your winner, via DQ, Carlito!
ECW WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP:
CM Punk vs. Elijah Burke
Could be the most exciting match of the night, if they're given more than seven minutes. CM Punk has really become a bonafide superstar since being brought up to the main roster a little over a year ago. Elijah Burke has continuously improved during his stint in ECW to the point where he is now the second most exciting wrestler on the brand. This was my favorite feud of the year earlier, until they brought Morrison over to ECW and dropped it in favor of Punk/Morrison, so these two getting back together is a treat for me, although I won't be watching the event. I still would like to see these two compete in a ladder match for the ECW Championship, and hopefully one day I will get the match (possibly a triple threat with Morrison). Punk just captured the title, and Burke hasn't really done anything, so it's pretty much a given that CM Punk will retain the ECW Championship.
WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP:
The Great Khali vs. Rey Mysterio vs. Batista
I like Mysterio, I dislike Batista and I really dislike Khali. I'm not expecting much of anything from this match, and so I won't write much on it, other than it's likely to be the worst match of the night (and yes, I realize their is a women's match on the card). No one wants to see Khali will the title any longer, in fact he's held it a little too long as is. And no one wants to see Batista get the title back, and he's probably the worse guy in the world to give the title too at the moment anyways. So that leaves Rey Mysterio, who won't really have anyone to defend the title against until Edge gets back. What a horrible main-event scene Smackdown has. Winner and NEW World Heavyweight Champion, Rey Mysterio.
WWE HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP:
John Cena vs. Randy Orton
John Cena has really won me over this year. Yeah, I'm tired of seeing him as champion, but at this point he really is the WWE. You think WWE now, you think John Cena. He really gives 110% every time he goes out there and he's the perfect face for the company... he's a model employee, unlike his opponent. Randy plays the vicious jackass heel perfectly, and has really cemented himself as a legit main-eventer for the first time in his career. Cena is coming into this match pissed off over what Randy did to his father a few weeks ago, and he hasn't really gotten his revenge yet. They like to put over Orton as ruthless, as well as a guy who plays mind games. Well, Cena's anger could well be what causes him to lose the championship if he loses focus in an attempt to get revenge. Of course, this is Super Cena that we're talking about here, so you can NEVER safely assume that he will lose the title. I'm going to go against my gut here and predict that WWE doesn't change things up and that John Cena will retain the WWE Championship.
Overall, this looks like it could be the best pay-per-view WWE has had in a while, it only has one really ugly match and that's the World Championship match. It's not worth 40 bucks, though it should easily be worth the $15-20 on DVD. I'm going to give this PPV a prediction grade of a B. We'll be posting the results (winners only, not detailed match recaps) as they happen.

XtremeGirl's 5 Movies You Have To Rent This Week
1. Perfume- The Story of a Murderer
* Be forewarned, if you don’t like movies that are deep and meaningful and have a somewhat different plot, then this movie isn’t for you. *
Basically, this young boy has an outstanding sense of smell, that causes him to be one of Paris's best perfume makers. And he become obsessed with the scent of women, and tries to capture their scent by killing them.
2. Spaceballs
Think Starwars as it should have been done.
3. 3 Iron
*A Korean film, so there will be subtitles*
Basically, its about a love triangle. But, its deep and meaningful and everyone needs to see it.
4. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 4.
It’s not as good as the old movies used to be, but it’s really fun to watch and it looks amazing to those of you who have a nice TV,.
5. Black Snake Moan
You get to see Samuel L Jackson play an electric guitar in a thunderstorm and sing the blues, and Christina Ricci takes off her top in every other scene.

Movie Review: 300
300
Starring: Gerard Butler, Lena Headey, Dominic West, David Wenham, Vincent Regan
Director: Zack Snyder
Writer(s): Zack Snyder (Screenplay), Kurt Johnstad (Screenplay), Frank Miller (Novel)
Studio: Legendary Pictures (Warner Brothers)
Runtime: 117 minutes
Rated: R for graphic battle sequences throughout, some sexuality and nudity
Official UWF Score: 5 Stars
The Plot:
When the power hungry King Xerxes of Persia invades Greece with his massive army of over 100,000 to extend his vast slave empire, the brave King Leonidas brings his personal body guard army composed of 300 warriors to defend the passage of Thermopylae, the only way by land to reach Greece. Using unmatched courage and the great battle skill of his men, he defends Thermopylae until a treacherous Greek citizen tells King Xerxes a secret goat passage leading to the back of Leonidas's army. Meanwhile, his wife Queen Gorgo of Sparta tries to convince the council to send the Spartan army to fight against the Persians. This story is based off of the legendary battle, and is adapted through the mind of Frank Miller.
My Two Cents:
Just when you thought battle movies had reached as far as they could, 300 takes it to the next level. With new technology, 300 is able to create images of battle not seen before. Butler provides possibly the greatest battle role to date as Leonidas, delivering a fevered and passionate portrayal. The battle seens are incredible, the soundtrack is fantastic, the action non-stop. In my opinion, this is easily on the level of Braveheart and Gladiator. Amazing movie. A war classic.

Stinger's Thoughts on CM Punk's ECW Championship Win
This weeks ECW was good for one thing, CM Punk finally winning the ECW Championship. Sure, he only won it at this time because Morrison is suspended for the whole Signature scandal, but that doesn't matter. The only thing that matters is WWE just made the best decision ever, as it relates to the ECW brand.
The rest of the show was a stinker, same old stuff. But I'm a mark for CM Punk and have been for quite some time, so I'm very pleased with WWE at the moment.
Punk is an extremely talented wrestler, and is just as good as an entertainer. Now, he's a champion in the WWE, becoming the only man in history to hold the ROH and ECW Championship.
If you didn't see the title change, I suggest you go to WWE.com later this week and watch the complete match on the Hardcore Hangover webcast. It was a very good TV match, and I'm not just referring to Punk winning the ECW Championship either.
Way to go Punker!
