I know it's an old thread..

You know something everyone, I'm really getting sick and tired of people like Vinny Mac stealing our concepts and ideas and using them himself. For example, Pete Russo AKA "Total Elimination" Eli Flair had the whole "Team Extreme" concept a good two years before Vince had the Hardy's use it and as much as I like the Hardy Boyz, I have to say Pete as Eli did a hell of a lot better job of being Extreme than Matt, Jeff and Lita ever could!

Sorry, I just saw this off the WWE site to see what the preview for Smackdown was this week and then I checked the boards to see what every one here thought about it. But that's my rant and I'm sticking to it.

It actually just makes me happy that I didn't follow-through on the 'stat-based' FWrestling idea I was gonna put on the site just before WCW folded -- it's basically exactly the same game that WWE has put out -- getting points around what happens on shows. I'd probably be getting sued right now if I had!
