True enough and in that case Jericho is still a good choice as he can carry almost anyone to a decent match. Jericho can probably even lose without losing too much heat even. Rourke's background as a boxer and an actor might actually make this match not terribly painful to watch.

Yeah I think a Mickey vs Jericho match would be pretty awesome!

Floyd Mayweather Vs Big show match sucks at WM24. :laugh:

Even though show was heel yet crowds were supporting him. :p

Yeah, the celeb matches always suck. I don't remember who the heel was supposed to be in that match. And if no one can tell who the heel is supposed to be that is another indication that the match isn't going well.

I hold out some hope for Jericho and Rourke. Jericho is a better worker than Show, especially for carrying a limited opponent and being able to look weak. I think Rourke will be better than Mayweather. Rourke knows how to take a punch and knows how to act; he should be able to act like he got punched.

Mickey Rourke won't rumble with WWE superstar

HOUSTON (AP) — A spokeswoman for actor Mickey Rourke says he won't be taking his role as a professional wrestler into a real-life ring after all.

Paula Woods told The Associated Press on Wednesday night that Rourke will not wrestle WWE superstar Chris Jericho at Wrestlemania 25 in April at Houston's Reliant Stadium.

Woods wrote in an e-mail that the Oscar-nominated actor "will not be participating in Wrestlemania. He is focusing entirely on his acting career."

Rourke portrays professional wrestler Randy the Ram in the acclaimed movie "The Wrestler." He made a surprise announcement about the wrestling event Sunday night on the red carpet before the Screen Actors Guild Awards in Los Angeles.

Rourke had said he was going to toss Jericho "around the ring like tossed salad."

a ploy?

Yeah we can forgive him for that. Did you also see Ron Killings completely miss his spinning dive thing on HHH?

Ha i just watched it back and it made me laugh. This is why I'm so disappointed with WWE at times...

It's bad enough i know it's not real, But if they can't even make it look real then what's the point of watching?

He was face in that match

From Wikipedia:

Wight returned to World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) under his last used ring name (The) Big Show, at No Way Out, stating that he had lost 108 pounds, previously weighing at least 500 pounds when he took time off from injuries. He then attempted to attack Rey Mysterio after his World Heavyweight Championship match with then champion Edge but got into a physical confrontation with boxer Floyd Mayweather, Jr. after Mayweather came from the crowd to defend his friend Rey. The confrontation ended with Mayweather breaking Wight's nose with a punching combination. Big Show was then assigned to work on the SmackDown brand, although he has often appeared on Raw as well. In the following weeks, Big Show was portrayed as a heel, yet fan majority continued to support him over his rich, boastful adversary.

Shane was awesome on Raw. Good to see him take revenge.

For the first time in a long time I can say I am looking forward to seeing a PPV, I feel the card is quite good especially the Shane vs Orton match.

      Any decent ITSM will A) have a web form that allows a user to raise a ticket, if you're writing an email you can write a ticket. B) Monitor a mailbox and auto-generate tickets based on inbound mails for those users that really can't get their heads around the concept that if you have an issue you go to support.mycompany.com and fill in the box. From your description you're having users email the desk, and then having a human read each one and manually raise a ticket on behalf of the user.

      Fixing things? Have you ever tried linux? Everything works out of the box nowadays in most common hardware. This includes Wifi and Bluetooth. If anything, if they return back to windows is because they haven't found an equivalent program which often used on windows.
