The Lyrical Fix - The Whole F'N Champ
    Submitted by Chad Brown on Thursday, May 23, 2002 at 8:02 AM EST

    Back again, disturbing the peace
    Like I just got my prison release
    Call a friend, wake a nieghbor
    A lyrical stunt is about to occur
    Finally lighting up this mic
    Step back, I’m about to recite

    Judging Judgment Day

    I feel for anyone that plunked
    Cash to see a PPV that flunked
    30 dollars.....why?
    So I can see Hulkamania die?
    Of course, there’s no doubt
    The Hair vs. Hair bout
    Was better than the rest
    Followed by HIAC, second best
    Then we had Mr. Eddy G
    Squaring off against R-V-D
    Better than last month, at Backlash
    Where I think both guys had some whiplash
    But Sunday, I think it dissapeared
    Bad build-up, good match.....weird
    It’s now official, and I might be late
    But the Tag division isn’t great
    Right now, it’s blowing a few nuts
    And got more than a few ruts
    That needed to be worked out
    Before we see an entertaining bout
    Cause Rico, Billy and Chuck
    Certainly won’t earn my buck
    To see them on Pay-Per-View
    Oh, and get some new champs, too
    Anyway, back to Sunday
    I’m glad I didn’t pay
    Show of the year, according to Tito
    Can’t exactly agree with him though
    However, on some parts I agree
    So I’ll go ahead and give it a B

    Keeping Things Fresh: The Whole F'N Champ

    So Taker now holds gold
    Well, the writers suddenly got bold
    Putting the title on a guy
    Who can’t sell properly
    I have a feeling, however
    That Taker as champ was better
    But he still won’t aide
    The ratings that are beginning to fade
    The Taker/Hogan match
    Was almost 12 minutes flat
    12 minutes title match, on PPV?
    What is this, free TV?
    But that’s because the two old men
    Could only last so long before fatigue set in
    But the point being,
    Putting Undertaker in the ring
    Isn’t going to do squat,
    World Title or not
    Taker and Hogan aren’t the answer
    They’re just another form of cancer
    That’s why at the PPV in June
    We need to fix that bleeding wound

    Hogan, Taker, Triple H
    Have all had their phase
    With the gold the past few months
    However, I have a wild hunch
    That there is one man
    Who’s shown that he can
    Lead the WWE,
    And I’m not talking about RVD
    A guy who’s stolen the show
    The last two PPV’s in a row
    Not Kurt Angle, he’s elevated
    It’s been long enough, we’ve all waited
    Edge has shown he’s past
    Being ready to break that glass
    The glass ceiling, of couse
    The same one that’s forced
    Y2J and Chris Benoit
    Back down to mid-level draws
    Edge has so many
    Matches; the options are plenty
    Austin, HHH, Benoit, RVD
    Can all work matches properly
    Can you imagine the possibilities
    The matches would be hot; 150 degrees
    Or, on a similar note
    You could shove RVD down our throat
    Not that it’s a bad thing at all
    Don’t make him to be a little rag doll
    I think that was done Monday Night,
    He certainly put up an excellent fight
    Made into a hard-working star
    Especially when he nailed the 5-star
    KOTR: Taker taking on R-V-D
    To determine the champ of WWE
    I don’t know about you
    But when their RAW match was through
    Before Flair decided to come down
    The pop for Rob was rather loud
    That simply tells me
    The fans see a champ in RVD
    So many ways things could go
    Don’t keep the title on Taker, though

    QUESTION OF THE WEEK

    (Note: I’d like to give out a personal thank you for
    the overwhelming amoung of feedback I received after
    the last column, especially for the Q of the week.
    Thank you!)

    Last week’s question: Should WWE sign Goldberg?

    This week’s winner comes from Rob:
    Wusup this is rob, the R-O-B
    And im here to tell you what i'd like to see
    Before i get the F out of the WWE
    The question is who will be the next signee?
    Will it be another ratings dropper?
    Or bring on a bout of slobberknockers
    Hopefully not ending up like Hennig and Hall
    With length of careers ending up real small
    Who's gonna sign? Who will it be?
    Hopefully Bill Goldberg, thats who i see
    Walkin down the ramp, beating his head
    Hopefully he will spear Hogan dead
    Becoming the Champ in the process
    and ending all this poor ratings mess
    He'll pack arenas, filled to the seams
    But maybe that's just one of my dreams
    It would be a nice change for wrestling indeed
    Cuz that's exactly what the WWE needs
    It would not be a tragedy
    To see Goldberg win the belt cleanly, 1-2-3
    Then keep it going, push him to the top
    The ratings droppings just might stop
    Like Edge and Rhyno, spearing foes
    I know he'd put on quite the show
    To give a final thought by me
    Put him on RAW, I'd like to see
    Something for me to tune in on Monday
    Cuz what I've seen so far is to my dismay
    So sign bill goldberg, give him a contract
    Cuz he'd definitely make quite an impact
    And here's one of my final rants
    Who the hell starts those "Goldberg" chants?

    Runner-up from Scotty:

    Did anyone see UPN last night,
    you would think Vince and Bret were about to fight.
    The crowd roared for nearly half an hour,
    Until it suddenly turned sour
    Vince came out to screw the show up,
    as if Stephanie’s writing wasn’t enough.
    Hogan built this sport into an empire,
    And 20 years later, he’s still on fire
    So when you ask if the sport is in need of a star,
    You want Bill Goldberg.....don’t look so far.
    Don’t get me wrong, this guy is great,
    his power and size make the perfect mate.
    But don’t you remember how he was made
    a streak of perfection, and WCW was saved.
    Fans would come just to see his passion,
    even for 2 minutes was worth the price of admission.
    So when you ask if the World is in need of ol’ Bill,
    I say why not, another career for Steph to kill.
    Because I’ve been watching for about 20 years,
    Seeing Rikishi is brining me to tears
    Why not push a wrestler with some spunk,
    Watch some old ECW, and quit airing this junk.
    WRESTLING is what fans want to watch,
    But pushing B & C?, just kick me in the crotch.
    About this free agent you think is “the one,”
    What happens when he breaks something, and he’s done?

    Runner Up from Rick Scapulla:

    Well it’s that time of season again were the WWE,
    Could make me puke, with everything that I see.
    Dear Vince what the hell
    Can’t you see how bad the ratings smell?
    Your fans can’t take it any more
    Everything has become such a bore.
    I don’t know what’s worse that crap on TNN
    Or that other pile of junk you put on UPN
    For the love of god Vince we need something new
    And please consider your options cause you have quite a few
    Let's look at what you have right under your nose
    A man that would send a shockwave through the rows.
    If you cant think of his name let me help u a bit,
    The first grand slam winner, you getting it Vince?
    As they say in shreck, there’s nothing better than par fey
    Well guess what Vince there is….H. B. K.
    Vince this man is the shit, and its friggin sick,
    That we haven’t seen him dish out sweet chin music
    In a WWE match in over 4 damn years
    Vince please open up your goddamn ears,
    The WWE fans want him back badly cant' you see?
    I't would be bigger than last years return of his airness number 23.

    Well then their is option two
    One that’s slightly harder to do
    But it’s still possible,
    If you fill his pockets full.
    An entry into the WWE will definitely send a surge
    Because his mans name is Bill Goldberg
    You talk about having dream matches,
    Well Austin-Goldberg has been one since they invented Sandwiches.
    There are other opponents people would like to see
    Like Rock Triple H and Brock Lesner, that man-beast.
    So Vince why don’t you give that idea a flirt
    Cause trust me Vince it definitely couldn’t hurt
