No doubt it was something like biggest HHH's kiss-ass.
But that's cool, i had you down for biggest Cena nuthugger. Or Manic Maria obsessive.

Handsome Bob

Why don't you do a poster award thread yourselves lads? Don't make me take it upon myself!:mad::p

That would probably lead to a bunch of people getting a weeks ban based on worst poster nominations.

Still would remind people of the draft thread and hopefully spark thoughts of ressurecting one for Xmas (crossed fingers after dreaming of booking Sheiky vs. Brian Blair)

Unless orestes or Vince (don't think bombidol would care) starts a thread with the rules in the post to keep it in line. Hell, they could even come up with the nominations and categories. Christ knows Vince himself is on PW long enough to know most of us.

Mightn't be a bad idea lads.

I voted for him too. He just doesn't interest me anymore; In my opinion of course the gimmick has got stale again and I haven't seen a match that he excelled in this year (other than agaiinst Edge at WM). And the gogoplata, whatever it's called, had me despairing for a very long time this year. That and he looks worn out.

He has other pretty good matches with Edge, some great big man matches with Show and made Festus look like a future main event player.

Haven't really caught his matches against Show other than the one at SS so I can't comment. I saw the match against Festus on SD and it was not boring, that's all I can remember.

What do you think, in terms of the entire package, of the character of the Undertaker right now?

How can you say that a wrestler regressed when you havent seen most of his best and high profile matches? Add the Smackdown match with Jeff Hardy two weeks ago to my list.

I fast forward his entrance if that is what you mean. I dont seen where this comes when talking about a regression.

Should this be the boards.ie WWE Slammy awards?

I also quite like the idea of a poster award thing like what is in the soccer forum.

As I suggested, the entire package has me dismayed, not just his matches right now. I have absolutely zero interest in his current storylines, that for me is a regression of a character.

In terms of the character, does it still interest you? What about recent storylines, how do you feel about them?

If I'm being honest his turn back to the dark side, excusing one or two good feuds, has sucked balls for me.:p WM20, and now we are approaching WM25. Five disappointing years, guess I can't blame him though, he doesn't write his storylines after all.:pac:

Pretty much, other highlights from past Slammy Awards

- WWE Superstars perform Land Of A Thousand Dances
- Vince McMahon performs Stand Back
- Undertaker causes some scrub to wet themselves
- Yokozuna nominated for "best buns"

The list goes on and on.
The WWE Hall Of Fame is also a joke too and doesn't mean diddly squat.
