I'm sorry but they must be promising Jamie Noble something big to have him put up with this humiliation. Freaking retarded.

[size=7]Not so Noble in defeat[/size]
By Louie Dee
Written: July 27, 2007To our fans, new Cruiserweight Champion Hornswoggle is an entertaining leprechaun who lives under the ring and is most often seen helping fellow Irishman Finlay during his matches. To Jamie Noble, however, the little guy is nothing more than a big nuisance and the reason for quite possibly the worst week of Noble’s life.

But, based on how the pint-sized pugilist won the Cruiserweight Championship at The Great American Bash, his given name is actually eerily accurate. Much like new entry SmackDown, “hornswoggle” is in the English lexicon; according to Merriam-Webster, the word is a verb meaning “to bamboozle, deceive, swindle or cheat.”

When the leprechaun…well, hornswoggled his way to the gold last Sunday, he beat five men in the Cruiserweight Open but specifically pinned Noble to do it. Since then, Noble has heard nothing but snickers and whispers aimed toward him, and while Irish eyes may be smiling on the new champion, WWE Superstars are glancing disapprovingly in Jamie’s direction. He has become the butt of a joke he wants nothing to do with; it is even rumored that a fellow Cruiserweight suggested that Noble might have better luck against the “purple horseshoes and yellow moons.”

While Hornswoggle may not stay crunchy in milk like the Lucky Charms he’s being compared to, he has stayed on Noble’s mind non-stop since Sunday night. The snickering certainly doesn’t help that, and it’s something Noble vows to stop.

“Do you know what it’s like? It’s horrible!” Noble screamed. “You think I like going down hallways and seeing people pointing and whispering? I know what they’re talking about! It’s embarrassing!”

While it’s true that the WWE locker room can sometimes sound like something out of the movie Mean Girls, it’s not like Hornswoggle was just some random interloper. If you don’t think Hornswoggle is tough, you might need to put down the Guinness and take a closer look; after all, this is a guy who gets abused by Finlay, his supposed good friend, on a regular basis, and who took the brunt of Mr. Kennedy’s signature rolling senton slam at WrestleMania — off a 15-foot ladder, no less.

Noble, a former Cruiserweight Champion himself, is still far from impressed.

“I’m Jamie Noble, one of the best wrestlers in the world. I have credentials that will stand the test of time,” he reminded WWE.com in a less-than-casual way. “That little troll, he slid in and stole the title from me. He shouldn’t have even been in the match. He slides in out of nowhere and takes advantage of the opportunity? I was single-handedly mopping the floor with four other WWE Superstars. He attacks me while I’m down, from behind, and they want to call him champion? That’s going to go down in the history books as a title win?”

In short…yes. Hornswoggle was officially in the ring when the Cruiserweight Open started, making him a legal participant. In fact, taking advantage of the loophole in the rules like he did is actually quite smart. That is, unless you were the one who came out on the short end of the stick, like Noble.

Not to worry, Noble says, because he’s not going to overlook his opponent ever again.

“I’m going to get revenge on Hornswoggle and restore dignity to the Noble name,” the former champion vowed. “Hornswoggle better enjoy it while it lasts, because there’s a price to be paid. He may have found his pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, but I will have my revenge.”

At the very least, Noble can take solace in the fact that he won’t have to face The Rainbow Express or Ken Shamrock anytime soon.

I am watching Cryme Tyme and actually booing the TV screen. Too disgusted to turn the channel but feeling sick and insulted at the same time. It is like watching a train wreak. I couldn't turn away.



I know it is just a parody of In Living Color, but man...




I really find them sickening!
I hate them!

The fact that Jamie Noble is the sacrificial lamb to the Hornswoggle gimmick (which, by the way, annoys me regardless of who is doing the job to him, because it has taken away what little dignity the Cruiserweight Title had left) is just tragic. Jame Noble is quite possibly one of the ten best in-ring performers in the company (seriously, go check out his ROH stuff if you get the chance, the guy is amazing)...and while Great Khali is holding the belt on that show, you've got poor Jamie Noble jobbing to a joke character. I think my main issue is that I feel like Noble is never going to be allowed to get any sort of retribution for this. Hopefully I'm wrong, but it seems to me that this isn't going to end with Jamie Noble beating the snot out of Hornswoggle and getting a rad Cruiserweight Title run.

Another thing that's annoying to me about this is how much I actually do dig Hornswoggle. I think he's really fun, and I think there's an entertaining contrast between him and the super-tough, super-serious Finlay. But this is just like...what the hell?

Anyway, some news bits for those who may not have heard.

The reason they did the Lashley-Kennedy angle on Raw is because Bobby's shoulder is hurt and is most likely going to need surgery. No timetable for how long he's out for, could be weeks, could be months.

The reason for the weird Umaga face turn/Santino heel turn segment was because Jeff Hardy no-showed. That's actually not quite accurate, as he did call in to say he wouldn't be there, but regardless of what reason he gave, WWE has suspended him for a month.

And...good lord, I don't even want to type this next one. I imagine by now you've all actually heard about it anyway. TNA has signed Pacman Jones. Yes, that's right...at a time when wrestling is under more scrutiny than its ever been, TNA went and made the most mind-boggling, stupid signing they possibly could have. I'm sure the next thing we'll find out is that they've signed Michael Vick...

Okay, this post needs some positive in it. Or at least some non-negative, since I'm admittedly having a hard time coming up with something really super happy to say. So I'll just point out something that I think is really cool. The new tag team on SmackDown, Jesse and Festus (yes, it's a stupid gimmick, but stick with me here) has some roundabout coolness in it. The dude playing Jesse, the smaller of the two, is actually Ray Gordy, son of Terry "Bam Bam" Gordy, former tag team partner and close friend of current head of the SmackDown creative team, Michael P.S. Hayes. I just think that's really cool.

Oh! And more coolness. Down in OVW, Harry Smith (son of British Bulldog Davey Boy Smith), Nattie Neidhart (daughter of Jim Neidhart), and Teddy Hart (nephew of Bret and Owen Hart) have been put together as a unit called The New Hart Foundation. Or...actually, I don't know if they're using that name, but that's the basic concept behind it. Pretty sweet...I'd love to see it get brought up to WWE TV, assuming Teddy stays on his good behavior.
Once upon a time, a man lived. This man was a man who really lived. He was the best there was at what he did, living. Living is what he did, and he did it well. In fact, he did it too well. He lived so well that he made other people stop living. That is why he had to be stopped. To stop him, they sent Rimo.

Jamie Noble should be happy... Because I had totally forgotten all about him until last week.

I love Hornswoggle!

Everything happens for a reason, but sometimes the reason is that you're stupid and make bad decisions.

I'm interested to see what McMann has up his sleeve tonight. The commercials make it look like he's takin' names and kicking ass tonight.

BTW, I know Ric Flair likes to be the 'Nature Boy' and not go in for the Roids etc but that man needs a titty lift or something. :puke:

So what's the story with Coach? Is he going on vacation? Oh and hey, I thought when Coach took over, Bischoff was just going on vacation also but he never came back. Did he really get fired?

I didn't realize the IRS and Congress were looking into the WWE. Interesting.
