WWE Thread

[Matt B.]

thought itd be good to start another wwe thread cause the other was almost dead
i enjoyed smackdown tonight jbl vs. matt hardy was good
mnm vs. batista and rey was excellent overall it was good

[bauer]

You can use this one, but I am closing the last one. The Undertaker has made his choice!

By the way, when the hell is Cena going to lose that damn belt? What a fucking disgrace.

[Matt B.]

i dont know i guess it will be wrestlemania since its been the #1 contender winning lately

[bauer]

I'm all for guys that can't really wrestle being the champion as long as they have a good gimmick. Yes, you are a white rapper. We get it. Your gimmick stinks.

[Matt B.]

i still kinda like him but its gettin stupid hes like eminem now first time was great but now hes washed up

[Andy]

I'm all for guys that can't really wrestle being the champion as long as they have a good gimmick. Yes, you are a white rapper. We get it. Your gimmick stinks.
john cena's probably one of the main reasons i don't watch wrestling anymore. :-\

[Matt B.]

i think wwe just put in ceana as champion was to promote his album and once salses slip hes gone

[bauer]

john cena's probably one of the main reasons i don't watch wrestling anymore. :-\
I've been watching TNA Wrestling lately. Despite some of its obvious negatives....its not that bad. Although, I've always been a fan of the wrestling alternatives. I was pretty much the biggest ECW fan you could find a few years ago.

[Matt B.]

isnt tna extending to 2 hours

[bauer]

I'm still trying to get over Shark Boy. Ask me details in a few weeks.

[Matt B.]

who or what the hell s shark boy

[bauer]

who or what the hell s shark boy
You don't want to know.

[Matt B.]

sounds like that shitty 3d movie

[Voodoo Monkey]

No, but he sued them.

[Larson Something]

I kind of liked Cena as a heel. I particularly remember getting a kick out of a Dynamite Kid reference he made before a Benoit match. But yeah, this'll be the one time HHH getting the title back will actually be kind of a relief.

Smackdown is a disaster right now. Any show that's desperate enough to put Mark Henry in a world title program is in huge trouble. And as far as the Boogeyman goes, they might have been better off bringing back Papa Shango.

TNA has promise, but a lot will depend on how they use Sting. He can be useful, but if he becomes too much of the focus of the show at the expense of guys like Christian and Samoa Joe, it won't help much in the long run.

[Matt B.]

the boogyeman guy is unusual but interesting as for cena the only thing i still kinda like is his rap before his matches

[Dr Zaius]

Check out this picture. That looks just like Peter Griffin in the front row.

"I see boobage... Uh-oh!"

[Matt B.]

how strange

[Matt B.]

the old belt is back cena lost and that damn belt is good as burned

[Dr. Horrible]

i thoguht NYR was a very hot hsow last nite, the boos in the arena for cena were defeaning

[bauer]

Thank GOD Cena lost his title. I fucking hated him as champ. Mikel, how was that Main Event? The ending reminds me of when Hogan won the belt at WM8 against Yokozuna.

Well, they got me tuning in tonight. I can feel the wrestling bug digging itself back into my brain.

[Matt B.]

the boos in the arena for cena were defeaning
cena got booed?

[Dr. Horrible]

the amin event was hot, cena got the msot heat of the night there were almost chants for carlito.......when cena won i thought the place was gonna riot then i saw the cameras pointed at the entrance i knew somethin was up

when edge ran down edge got the biggest ovation ive heard live since trips tapped to benoit

[bauer]

Cena got a mixed reaction again tonight to open the show.

I am guaranteeing this "Live Sex Celebration" is cringe worthy bad.

[Matt B.]

i hope edge isnt gonna keep the belt and go back to the classic

[Dr Zaius]

NYR was the first of any WWE I've seen in months. What the fuck is the deal with Shelton's momma? Who thought that up?
Bit surprised with Cena getting booed, last time I was watching he was red hot.
Live sex sounds pathetic. Almost as pathetic as Katie Vick or HLA.

[Curtis]

the Live sex thing was funny because of how dumb the whole thing was, plus the fact that Edge got a huge boner that million of people saw was pretty funny. Raw was OK.. last night, I hate Cena so its good more people are booing him.

[Dr. Horrible]

litas boobies..............

[thecapecoddah]

oh my god a boobie on TV - http://wwtdd.com/index.php?type=one&i=482

I didn't see the nipslip, but I was pretty surprised how far they went with the whole thing. They went under the covers and Edge went down on Lita, coming back up with her panties in his mouth, and Lita went down on him....this was until the 16 time World Champ came out and ruined the fun. WOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

[Matt B.]

i saw the sex thing surprised the got far with edge pulling lita hair and pulling noff the panties

[bauer]

not if there flairs and old and floppy....
Take that back! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

[Matt B.]

the battle royal was good and the the us title match was excellent
overall it was good

[George]

doesw anybody realize how pathetic the whole "pro" wrestling business is?
it's nothing but crappy, desperate actors talking what is supposedly "trash talk" (stupid trash talk) and pretending to fight.

[sikkbones]

The "Live Sex Celebration" on RAW last week featuring new WWE Champion Edge and Lita was something that neither were especially comfortable with according to some new reports. It should be noted that there are no indications that they put up any kind of resistance to going forward with the segment.

What might have made things a little uncomfortable however is that Adam "Edge" Copeland recently reconciled with his wife, whom he cheated on with Amy "Lita" Dumas early last year. After a very public breakup between the two took place, including some very powerful words about Copeland from his wife that hit the internet where she accused him of taking steroids, they have since worked to rebuild their relationship in the last few months.

Many people close to the situation both in WWE and close friends have stated that the relationship between Copeland and Dumas never fully continued because of the stress that took place after it was made public all over the internet. The combination of Matt Hardy making the story public, getting released by WWE (which did bother Dumas) and the "whispering" in the workplace every week caused the relationship to not last very long.

It is no secret that Lita has a reputation for being a very private person. Says one WWE source, "She knows she's got a great character who can be a successful heel for a long time to come. The problem is, to cash in she has to play into being a slut, and so she has mixed emotions about it." Based on those around him, Edge appears to be more willing to go along with more "raunchy angles" and do what he is told. However, the segment this past week may have caused some awkwardness for him and his wife. "Adam will do whatever is asked of him," said a close friend of Edge. "He's not the type to put up a stink about it. But he had to limit how far they went with it, so they found a happy medium to keep the company happy." A picture of Lita's exposed left breast during the segment has no doubt made the rounds this week on the internet and probably didn't help matters much either.

[Curtis]

aw man Angle stoped the live sex :(

[Matt B.]

no big deal

[Dr. Horrible]

..........that's what she said

giggidy

[Matt B.]

damn edge won

[sikkbones]

As noted last week, World Wrestling Entertainment and Juventud Guerrera agreed to terms on his release from the company recently. To many, this release was no surprise and only a matter of time as he had a reputation for being late to shows, being disruptive, unreliable and carrying an unbearable presence backstage since his arrival into the company in late 2005.

One of the "final straws" so to speak regarding his status in WWE had to due with his SmackDown TV match taped on January 3 (airing January 6) against Kid Kash for the WWE Cruiserweight Title. When he was told he was losing the match, he then attempted to take a number of key moves out of the match so that Kash wouldn't kick out of them. During the match, Juventud ended up sandbagging (meaning being uncooperative and was dead-weight for Kash's moves) and even gave Kash a few stiff shots that many of the WWE agents noticed. When the WWE agents took this up with him, he claimed to be injured. Less than 48 hours later, Vince McMahon made the decision to fire him as he was already down on his attitude and in-ring psychology.

The Torch reports that many in WWE described Juventud as an almost delusional egotistical superstar. It is no secret he has always had a big ego, as those who were around him noted that he always referred to himself in the third person, always wore dark sunglasses and acted as if he was on the same level of wrestling stars such as Steve Austin or The Undertaker. To make matters even funnier to some, he felt he was always above some of the newer top stars like Batista and John Cena. His notorious actions caused both Psicosis and Super Crazy to ask WWE management to separate them because they feared they may lose their jobs being associated with him. It should be noted that Psicosis hasn't gotten along with Juventud for years.

Some other highlights from his short WWE career included stories that he was overheard telling some passengers on airplanes that recognized him that he was "The Rock of Mexico" and that he is now as big as The Rock in the United States. It is no secret The Rock was upset with Juventud using his gestures and moves while he was in WCW. Juventud's response was that he had a right to use them since he was as big as The Rock. One report has stated that Vince McMahon could have pushed Juventud's ego even more based on one story during The Mexicools first day in the WWE locker room. During a speech addressing the entire roster, McMahon pointed them out stating that they looked eager and hungry to be there and that others should take a cue from their enthusiasm. As a joke, McMahon added something in the lines of, "Who knows, maybe some day I'll make Juventud the World Champion." Even though it was meant as a joke, Juventud clearly took it to heart not realizing McMahon's tone in that he was saying a good attitude and eagerness could take you far. Says one WWE wrestler about his release, "He probably thinks Triple H or Batista felt threatened by him, and that's why he was fired. He'll never change."

WWE releases Heidenreich
SmackDown loses another member of the roster. I remember reading on WWE.com at the time of Hurricane Katrina that he couldn't find all of his family members in that area... I hope everything is okay now w/ him & the family.


WWE.com:

Heidenreich released
Jan. 17, 2006

World Wrestling Entertainment has come to terms with Heidenreich on his release from the company. WWE wishes Heidenreich the best in all his future endeavors.


More on the Release of Heidenreich

More details have become available on the release of John Heidenreich. He apparently checked himself into a hospital a few weeks back due to an ear infection and when WWE finally came to get him, assuming he was fine by then, he told them he could no longer handle being on the road and flew himself home.

Word backstage is that Heidenreich was dealing with some family issues and WWE may have released him so that he could be free to take care of those things and could possibly return in the future.

Animal is now expected to be repackaged as a singles wrestler.


Good riddance to bad wrestler..

i fuckin hated HeidenWipe.

Best news I've heard all day. WWE will not truly be great again until VKM loses his devotion to oversized dolts that can neither work the mic nor wrestle.

[Nebuchanezzar]

Ah the wrestling. I suppose you yanks haven't got Smackdown yet, I've watched it (thanls to the time difference), and it sucked. Don't waste your time. RAW was much better.

Even with Orton and Orlando having a good match together, it was all kinda boring.

[Matt B.]

damn rey lost

[sikkbones]

Orlando Jordan sucks dick.. literally...

WWE is committed to moving forward with Orlando Jordan's new bisexual character, reports PWInsider.com.

In fact, WWE has already determined who will play Jordan's male and female love interests. Former TNA Knockout Trinity, who recently signed with WWE, will be playing the female, while Jordan's friend Erik, a non-wrestler, will assume the role of the male lover.

Being that Jordan appears on UPN's SmackDown, it should be interesting to see how extreme WWE takes the storyline

[sikkbones]

Taken from Chris Hyatte's monday blog)
SUNDAY, BLOODY SUNDAY

Ohhhh, something BIG is brewing.

How big? SO big that the "heavyweight" reporters (Meltzer, Scherer, Keller) are quietly checking and re-checking the facts before reporting on this.

HOW BIG? Well, IF it's true it might cause a mainstream uproar that SHOULD be on the level of Eddie's death and the subsequent Drug Testing announcement

HOW BIG?? Big enough that the Undertaker could potentially have a MAJOR lawsuit against the WWE...

I'm sure you know the story, but let me recap it a bit...

Rumor has it... that "Cowboy" Bob Orton Jr has Hepatitus. A pretty nasty, permenant disease that lives in his blood. In varying degrees, it could be fatal. It's also easily transmitted through mixing of body fluids. It just wipes out your liver.

Rumor has it... that Orton has had this for a while.

Rumor has it... Orton only told John Laurenitius. Probably the McMahons too.

Rumor has it... Laurenitus didn't bother to tell anyone else other than, (and this isn't for sure, just possible/probable) the McMahons and.or anyone higher on the management chain

Rumor has it... Orton got to work with this disease that IS EASILY PASSED ON THROUGH MIXING BLOOD in an environment where he sometimes is called to get physical with others and bleed.

Rumor has it... FACT... Orton bled like a stuck pig during his son's Armageddon "Hell in the Cell" match against the Undertaker

Rumor has it... FACT... Orton bled all over the Undertaker

Rumor has it... FACT Undertaker was bleeding too

Rumor has it... FACT Randy Orton was bleeding as well. All three ended up covered in each other's blood.

Rumor has it... Laurenitius saw this and said, "Uh oh".

Rumor has it... Laurentitius waited until it was too late, and until he had a load of muscle behind him, to break the news to the Undertaker

Rumor has it... The Undertaker is infuriated.

FACT Neither Cowboy Bob or the Undertaker have been seen since

And there you have it.

Do you understand what the ramifications are if any of this is true?

First of all, to ignorantly expose the Undertaker, the most loyal dog the WWE has ever had, to this is... is just mind blowing. Years... over a decade of service... of money generating fan appeal, to just callously let him work with a guy WITH A LIVER DESTROYING DISEASE IN HIS BLOOD and allow them to bleed all over each other. Without a warning... without a single heads up.

And the LEGAL ramifications. Mark Calloway, if any of this is true, could possible destroy the WWE. I mean, the irresponsible behavior here is just... it's worse than their ongoing drug problem. At least with drugs and 'roids, the WWE can say, "Hey, we didn't know!" In this situation, management (Laurenitius at least... and he WILL be the fall guy if this is as bad as it looks) DID know... and willfully withheld the information.

If this is true, the reign of John Laurenitius is over. You can't hide this. You can't sweep this under the rug. You can't throw a ton of money at the Undertaker and tell him to shut up.

[Curtis]

wow this is huge... and bad.

[Dr. Horrible]

....................or just lies

[Curtis]

Is it??

[bauer]

Is it??
Did you read the story, idiot? It said it is all rumor right now, but if these rumors are true, it could be very bad for the WWE.

[Dr. Horrible]

technically that would mean randy orton had contracted it to since they bled all over each other as well and considering he's still been working on smakcdown...........

[Voodoo Monkey]

Well, I've heard this story from far more credible places, including Meltzer.

[sikkbones]

Lots of interesting WWE/TNA news/rumors.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Credit: Wrestling Observer-Jan 24th

Shelton B. is expected to beat Flair for the IC title

Raven is having severe health problems as it relates to his past abuses of recreational and performance enhancing drugs. His thyroid is all messed up.

The reason TNA had their unopposed Monday night show canceled the week that the dog show is preempting RAW, is because TNA was told by Spike to sign another marquee talent (ala Sting) and failed to do so.

Jeff Jarrett contacted The Rock recently asking about product advice.

TNA and the UFC are sharing much the same audience on Spike. This was not the case when UFC and WWE were both on the network. Dave suggests that TNA is more appealing to a “sports” fan than the WWE is then based on those stats.

Armageddon did roughly 290,000 buys – highest SD! PPV since July 2003 (Vince vs Gowen and Brock vs Big Show vs Angle)

Mexico’s Roberto Rangel, a ref full time for 53 YEARS, went into shock on Dec 24th and his career is now over.

In the it can always be worse category: Former WWE “star” Kenzo Suzuki is part of a Hustle storyline where his wife is GM so he is Main eventing all the shows. (Razor Ramon Hard Gay is one of his opponents)

WWE is avoiding Dome shows because it costs 2 million dollars before you can even open the doors on such an event.

Antonio Inoki continues his trend of weekly outrageous claims: This week he claimed the Bankrupt New Japan promotion was going to split into 2 brands. One would tour Japan and the other foreign countries.

The “Hart House” in Calgary is expected to be preserved as a centerpiece for a new townhouse development.

An obscure Mexican wrestler died recently, which led to Dave telling a story about how this guy teamed with wrestling legend Danny Hodge and the 2 of them went over Stan Hansen and Bruiser Brody in 1975. Brody and Hansen weren’t happy jobbing to small guys, so Hodge got to stretch Brody a little bit.

April Hunter’s ex boyfriend (who she still lived with due to $$$ restraints) recently beat the tar out of her and claimed he was going to cut her love pillows of since that’s all she had going for her.

Dave reveals that Kimmel wanted the “It’s still real to me Damnit!” fan to be on his show, but once they located him and found out he was (gasp) normal and lost interest in him. Dave said he was approached by NBC in the 80’s to be featured in a show on Pro Wrestling as “Wrestling’s biggest fan” after the producers saw how clean cut he was they went with a “barely coherent, drooling Louisiana Jim Duggan fan” as the Biggest fan instead.

The legends PPV coming on March 3rd will be called World Wrestling legends and will be mostly 80’s stars.

Chris Jericho has his own 2 hour XM radio show, a UK Fozzy tour coming up and has a book deal for his bio. Plus he’s still doing auditions and taking acting classes.

Jim Cornette fell down his stairs at home and got a deep hip bruise. He said it was more painful than the Starcade Scaffold bump that messed up his knee permanently.

Chris Jericho cited interest in TNA if he could get “Sting money” . It seems unlikely.

Jarrett visited Bret Hart recently and believes he can convince Bret to do some TNA shots.

Vince wanted Sting for 2002’s Wrestlemania but negotiations didn’t go fast enough and Sting felt he wouldn’t be in good enough shape to go. Vince called him when the TNA deal came close to fruition, but the WWE wanted him to work 12-15 days a month and Sting wouldn’t do that.

Dave Hebner has opened up a wrestling promotion with NASCAR”S Hermie Sadler. He will use mostly TNA talent as a TNA house show dry run. His 1st show had a Dusty finish for the main event which just makes for a wonderful precedent. Al Snow refereed at the event. WWE theme music was used and Spike Dudley used that name which WWE owns.

TNA will be doing another PPV of all cage matches this year.

The guy who financed Randy Savage’s rap CD made an offer to buy TNA

When Skandor Akbar did his recent MMA cornerman duty, he did so while in full turban and Sheik’s clothing (Think World Class 1987)

SummerSlam is now up to roughly 640,000 buys the 2nd biggest SSlam buyrate in history (98 Taker vs Austin = no. 1)

Antonio Inoki (yeah he’s still lying) claimed Lesner won his court case vs WWE and is now free to go anywhere to work

HHH was mad that WWE.com broke kayfabe about he and Steffi having a lil Demon brewing in her womb.

The 1st SNME will air March 18th and be on a 3 hour tape delay

Kurt Angle’s lower back and his neck are both very bad but now with the belt Angle’s going to go harder than ever.

Cole and Tazz both complained that Ken Kennedy was added to their announcing team (Cole more than Tazz)

Bob Orton caught hepatitis as a teen and forgot he had it (35+ years) Taker was so pissed off by the whole situation Johnny Ace had to fly to a house show and sooth things over with him. Bob Orton was sent home.

Jim Ross has been offered a new contract. No word on whether he wants to resign or not though.

Flair said in a recent interview he wants to run for North Carolina Governor

Dave confirms that Animal can’t wrestle in 0ne on one matches due to his Lloyd’s of London deal.

Al Snow claimed in a recent interview that Vince once called him about his European Champ gimmick while Vince was in the middle of screwing Linda.

Billy Graham will be working WWE TV in February to promote the DVD and book

Awesome WWE logic: OVW requested Mac Johnson be returned to them from Deep South since he’s over in OVW and not really being used in Deep South. Talent relations denied the request because OVW is seen by the writers and the writers will see Mac has “no body” week after week and thus have no ideas for him and he will be fired. If he stays in Deep South no one will see him and his job is safe. So by being in a place where he’s not over, he has a better chance to keep his job!

The Wrestlemania tour bus which is to go city to city promoting the show was broken into recently and half the stuff was stolen.

Thank You God for someone picking up on the dual reference, i said that exact same thing at 2 or 3 wrestling forums and no one picked up on it


in other news, thank god for rey rey....i jsut hope he actually makes it to wrestlemania preferably with orton and angle in a triple threat

cruiserweight match was superb and ashley is actually coming along better than i thought, and vince's adlibs with the divas were short and fun

it's a shame edge's title run ended so soon, i thought he did quite well but the wwe still followed cardinal rule number 1: if you have a sentimental/gimmicky entrance you will always win your match

[sikkbones]

kevin nash needs to come back just to throw rey-rey out of the ring like a dart-dart.

[bauer]

Are they really going to have Rey vs Cena at wrestlemania? What a shitty match. Why is Rey getting such a big push anyhow?

[Dr. Horrible]

i personally hope they go with rey vs orton vs angle

for raw theyre probab;ly gonna go with cena vs hhh or edge vs hhh if he wins it back tonite

[HellKat666]

The booking committee of the WWE never fails to confuse me. Why did they have Cena win the belt back? Don't they realize that he's much more popular as a contender than as a champion? Remember about a month ago how he was getting booed almost as much as he was getting cheered? I almost wish he and Edge could have had a feud that lasted until Wrestlemania (where Cena winning the belt back would seem like a bigger deal), but the fact that their rivalry degenerated into slut and dick jokes makes me kind of glad that it appears to be ending.

I also think that if they wanted Cena as champion again, couldn't they have had Triple H win the Rumble? At least then you would have Wrestlemania main event. I know this is probably an unpopular opinion, but I believe that Triple H could carry Cena to a very good match.

Mysterio winning the Rumble will probably lead to him having a good match with Angle, but I wish he would have gotten a title shot some other way. In all honesty, does anyone really believe that Rey Mysterio could be the World Heavyweight Champion? Besides, he's already feuded with Kurt. Remember a few years ago, with Angle making all those short jokes and calling Mysterio a twelve year old? It wasn't a really memorable feud, but still.

However, it looks like they're already starting a feud between Angle and the Undertaker. Will they trade Mysterio to Raw so he doesn't get lost in the mix? I can't see what a match between Cena and Mysterio would accomplish. I wonder if something will happen to cause Mysterio to lose his Wrestlemania title shot, or if they'll use his winning the Rumble sort of like Edge's "Money in the Bank" thing.

Of course, this is all assuming Cena will even have the title come Wrestlemania. Actually, there's only one plausible outcome I can think of with Mysterio winning the Rumble. I know fantasy booking sucks, but here it is: Mysterio is traded over to Raw. Cena loses the title to Triple H at No Way Out. Mysterio fights Triple H at Wrestlemania. It's a fresh new match, one nobody has seen before. Whether or not it would turn out any good, I can't say for sure. I also don't know where this would leave Cena.

It looks like Mickie James will be fighting Trish at Wrestlemania. I hate to say this, but maybe they should think about eliminating the Women's Title. Besides the two women mentioned above, the only other credible person in the division is Victoria. Three people cannot support a division, even one as insignificant as the women's division.

It's nice to see Gregory Helms finally getting somewhat of a push. I've liked him ever since his WCW days, even though I got tired of the Hurricane character. Seeing all the participants in the Cruiserweight Invitational (and remembering that not all of the cruiserweights under WWE contract were in the match) made me realize how strong of a division it could be if the company only gave a damn about them.

What was the point of the JBL/Boogeyman match?

Seeing Matt Hardy being eliminated by Viscera depresses me. I can't believe how badly the WWE misuses him. He should at least be involved in the US Title scene.

Masters and Carlito appear to be starting a feud. Meh.

RVD returned. Hopefully he'll be traded over to Smackdown in place of Mysterio since there's really nothing new for him to do on Raw. Angle vs. RVD could be interesting (can't remember if it's been done before).

Well, it doesn't look like I missed much by skipping the Royal Rumble this year. It's too bad, really, since it used to be my favorite PPV of the year. With the way WWE is now, I just can't get excited for anything they do.

Foley is Blog: Cheap heat?
By Mick Foley
February 8, 2006

I know I promised to share some thoughts on Ric Flair this week, but I honestly feel that I need to address a subject that is more urgent. Like a lot of you, I had some strong feelings about last Friday’s “Eddie’s in Hell” episode of SmackDown, Apparently, some of my fellow WWE performers feel like I have a certain amount of “juice” in the company, and I feel like my thoughts will probably echo, to some degree, what is on their minds.

To a large degree, I am enjoying writing “Foley is Blog.” I hope you’ve enjoyed it as well. But, in a certain sense, I regret trying to manufacture controversy in order to get people interested in my web log. To be honest with you, the Flair piece was going to be a classic case of bait and switch, as I would bait the reader with the prospect for juicy Foley rebuttal to Flair’s criticisms of me and then switch to a largely complimentary analysis of Ric’s recent in-ring performance. So, for those of you who are interested in such an article, I will try to deliver it next week.

I also wonder if my following concerns might be more appropriately expressed in a personal phone call to Vince McMahon.

Before last Friday Night’s SmackDown, the Rey Mysterio/Eddie Guerrero stuff made me feel a little … weird. And not “weird in a good way,” either. More like weird in an uncomfortable way. Weird in an “I’m not sure this should really be on a wrestling show” way.

I know there has been a lot of talk since Eddie’s death about what Eddie would have wanted. I really don’t know. I didn’t truly know Eddie well enough to make that call. I had known Eddie for more than 10 years, though. I considered him a friend, and deep down, like most people who knew him, I genuinely liked him a lot. I can’t say with any certainty whether Eddie would have wanted his memory to be such a large part of the current SmackDown product.

I was truly blessed to have been Eddie’s roommate on the December 2004 SmackDown tour of Iraq. It had been quite a while since I’d had a roommate in WWE. Sure, I’ve been a notorious cheapskate on the road for many years — and many of the legendary tales of my thriftiness are not altogether undeserved. I will confess to sleeping on the cot at the Red Roof while representing the WWE as world champion, and I am the proud initiator of “Foley’s Four Hour Doctrine,” which settles the hotel vs. airport debate at a strict four hour limit. More than four hours before a wake up call for an early flight: hotel. Less than four hours: airport. You can read a book, listen to music, watch a DVD, (although I never owned a DVD player when traveling), and catch a nap. Just don’t waste hard-earned money on such a short hotel stay.

I’ve mellowed over the years. Father Time seemed to release the vice-like grip I’d had on my wallet for so many years. I traveled less, learned to love the tranquility of solitary, 200-mile drives, and learned that sleep was far more fruitful when not accompanied by drunken voices, loud sex, police sirens and the occasional gunshot. So, over the years, I grew out of the habit of rooming with anyone — to the point where I actually feared the potential of such an occurrence.

Such an occurrence was inevitable in Iraq. I shudder to think of the sounds that would come out of Big Show’s body. I shuddered as well at the prospect of the words that would come out of JBL’s mouth. Fortunately, I got Eddie. I may not have known Eddie as well as I might have, but I remember breathing a sigh of relief when “Foley and Guererro” was announced. For Eddie Guerrero was respected and admired not only for his incredible in-ring abilities, but also for his kindness, soft-spoken demeanor and deep faith.

We stayed up late the first night talking not only of wrestling, but of God and family as well. Actually, I’m not sure we talked about wrestling at all.
So often in life, we fail to tell people who are important to us just how we feel about them until it’s too late. Upon hearing of Eddie’s death, my sole source of comfort (other than firmly believing that Eddie Guerrero is in a better place) was that I had not been a victim of that failure. I had been able to tell Eddie how much I had enjoyed spending time with him and getting to know him better.

No, I didn’t know Eddie as well as some. And, as I mentioned earlier, I’m not an expert on what Eddie would have wanted. But, I have to believe that what Eddie would have wanted — and what we gave him last Friday on SmackDown — are two very different things.

I do not believe that Eddie’s wife appreciated the “Eddie’s in Hell” declaration. She just lost her husband. Mourning his loss is difficult enough.

I do not believe that Randy Orton needs this type of cheap heat to be effective. No one knows better than I that Randy is an incredible talent. He can wrestle, he can talk, and he exudes an extreme brand of cockiness in the ring that makes him a natural bad guy. He doesn’t need this.

I’m not against having Eddie’s memory as an enduring legacy of SmackDown. I was touched by Batista’s recent heartfelt words, and I don’t doubt for a moment that Rey Mysterio feels genuinely motivated by his late mentor’s spirit. And as I’ve told Chavo on a few different occasions, I considered the frog splash a tribute to Eddie on the night of his death to be one WWE’s truly great moments.

But the recent SmackDown episode did not honor his legacy, it exploited his death. I hope it will end, and the sooner the better. For by exploiting his death we achieve what I thought wouldn’t be possible: We cheapen his life.

I do however think his time in the spotlight should be just about up, and it should be time to realise that there are other people more deserving to win the title.

I agree with everything Foley said about the whole Eddie Angle. "Cheap heat" is exactly what that is, and Orton doesn't need that shit. It just isn't right.

I don't know if anyone's heard, but Tough Enough 3 winner and OVW Champion Matt "I'm the flavor baby!" Capotelli had to drop the title recently due to a level 2 brain tumor. There's a video of him on WWE.com addressing the fans and OVW wrestlers as he hands over the belt.

I always wondered what happened to that guy, and it sucks to find out something like this has happened. I hope he gets better.

So everyone else is allowed to break the rules whereas the new guy who actually posts in the Simpsons areas of the forum gets punished?

As for Matt Capotelli, it's absolutely tragic, especially considering what a splended wrestler he was. I sincerely hope he does get better.

And it is true, as Foley said, Orton can cope extremely well without having to reference a dead wrestler. I doubt it's Vince that's doing this, I'd say it's probably the crappy writing team that he's got, headed by his no brained daughter and her huge nosed husband.

Inside Wrestling News (Goldberg related)


i have Sirius Radio and i listen to Bubba the Love Sponge on Howard 101. He is best friends with Hulk Hogan and good friends to many other wreslters.

Wed night he had Bill Goldberg on the show for an interview. during this interview Goldberg stated he was upset with how is stint in the WWE went. he felt he was misused because he wasnt a Vince creation. He thought the Goldberg vs Lesnar match at WM should have been a legandary match but it got pushed under the rug.

the biggest news from the interview is Goldberg said if TNA and Spike TV push hard enough and put a good deal together for him he would be interested. But only if the are going to put serious time and money into the company and compete vs Vince.

Goldberg has a good relationship with Spike TV and he knows a lot of the TNA stars and management.

So look for Goldberg to possibly be the next big name to join TNA. If he doesnt then TNA isnt serious about competing vs the WWE


btw Goldberg sucks.... jack@ss ruined Bret Harts career because he doesnt have an ounce of ability in the ring

He also mentions that he finally decided to sit down and actually watch the DVD that WWE produced about him. Warrior is wasn’t too thrilled about the DVD. He has instructed his attorney to slap Vince with a lawsuit and he also has another suit pending against video game makers THQ for allegedly "stealing" his intellectual property. He also finds space to knock his ex-wife in a bizarre outburst.

http://tinypic.com/k06old.jpg

The saying used to be, "The more things change, the more they stay the same." Well, that might be true in other aspects of life, but when it comes to World Wrestling Entertainment, this cliché cannot be used.

I have been watching the WWE for about 21 years now. I started just after WrestleMania I and have never looked back... until now. Sure, it's the in thing to bag on the WWE and their current state of wrestling. But to call this stuff wrestling is an insult to... well wrestling.

At some point in the fairly recent past Vince McMahon and Co. had decided to completely downplay the physical aspect of the sport (yes, I still feel it's a sport) that I loved. Replacing well-paced matches with creatively written and often excellent storylines with silly, over-the-top, adolescent skits, and some flat out stupid angles, gimmicks and storylines, all of which have really turned me off lately.

I have been revisiting many old Raw and Smackdown episodes lately, some as recent as 2001. I have to say that even the difference four years makes is astonishing.

Wrestling was and should be the renegade sport, sort of like Punk Rock of the sporting world. Currently it's a parody of professional wrestling and Vince has been giving in to every bad idea that will always make the haters be able to point and laugh. The creative team is not letting guys go out there and do what they do. If Shelton Benjamin is a good wrestler, let his wrestling be his personality. If Big Show is a great Giant, let him be that. If your gimmick is "The Legend Killer" why do you need to have lines about a dead wrestler being in hell? This notion that every wrestler has to be Jim Carrey or Nicholas Cage is crazy. Allowing Shelton to do this Step ’n’ Fetchit routine is insulting to not only black people but anyone that watches this stuff.

Since Vince has no competition he has gotten very lazy. He's upset that thus far for WrestleMania there is no Rock, Hogan, Austin, Bret Hart, etc. He's getting Mick Foley. Foley is great, but it going to start bordering on embarrassing for Mick, especially with that weight situation. Vince used to be great at creating new stars. But the problem is now he's looking for actors to wrestle, it should be the other way around. Too much emphasis on the acting and "Entertainment," Dammit... I want the days of a good 30 minute match for the title one on one with a feud that has been building for months.

With that I have compiled a list of things that have gone drastically wrong in my option as a fan.

1) Titles no longer mean anything, personality is bigger than the title.

2) Vince not stepping down to get a fresh perspective from Shane.

3) Hiring TV writers and allowing them to create sitcom-like angles.

4) Female interviewers

5) Adolescent interviewers (Todd, I speak of you)

6) Making Triple H the focus

7) Not allowing Tag teams interview time

8) Placing no importance on tag teams

9) Not allowing tag teams to stay together for a decent amount of time. (2,3,4, years)

10) To much wrestling per week. Scale each show back to 90 minutes

11) Push guys with skills- Shelton, Chavo, Benoit, Edge, Rey Mysterio, RVD

12) Champions on fight on PPV or really hyped TV matches

13) Give high profile TV matches at least two weeks to advertise.

14) Too Many Pay-Per-Views

15) Save gimmick matches for PPVs

16) Allowing Ric Flair to wrestle TLC matches

17) Allowing Ric Flair to wrestle

18) Shoving guys down our throats (i.e. Cena, Masters, Carlito)

19) Making angles to reality based (Eddie Guerrero's death)
20) Not doing anything with Kane

21) Thinking that HBK vs. Vince is going to sell WM buys

22) Not letting Rey Mysterio have a title match this year at WM

23) Not letting guys get genuine heat

24) Too many female managers

25) Not giving guys that can't talk aggressive male managers

26) Not letting Kurt Angle retire at WM this year

27) Too many house shows

28) McMahons thinking they need to be on TV all the time

29) Not taking time with storylines

30) Taking the belt off Edge after only two weeks.

Wrestler comes out of the closet.
who'd have thought a guy that likes grappling with greasy oily men would be gay?



The following is from wrestlingnewsworld.com

At the recent Blood, Sweat, and Ears wrestling and music festival in Ontario, Canada, Chris Kanyon shocked the crowd by revealing he is gay. Below is an excerpt from the official BSE website where he bashes WWE and calls Vince McMahon "Satan McMahon":

At this time Chris Kanyon requested a few minutes to speak to the crowd. In an emotional delivery, Chris Kanyon said that he believes that the reason he was fired from WWE was not because of cutbacks, not because they didn't have a storyline for him, or any other reason you might have heard. Following some very nasty words for WWE and Satan McMahon, Kanyon revealed to the crowd that he believes that he was fired because the higher ups in WWE found out that he is gay. Kanyon then said he was tired of living in the closet and announced to the awestruck crowd that he was in fact a homosexual. He said he couldn't live another day living the lie. He then pronounced himself as the first openly gay professional wrestler in the industry. He then went on to say that he chose to be the real Chris Kanyon, and the fans had to chose whether they wanted to boo him or cheer him. Either way it was their choice and life is about choices. He was finally happy that he made his. Tonight would be the first time that Chris Kanyon wrestled with the weight off his shoulders.

1) Titles no longer mean anything, personality is bigger than the title.


Totally agree on that. I don't feel anything when there's a new champ nowadays, not even when Benoit and Eddie finally got their run. It doesn't mean shit when there's two belts to win (one of them once Arquette's) and they give it to every young pup who comes along.

Why don't you people quit complaining about wrestling and just watch it? It's so damn annoying when losers like that go on forums about bitch their little faces off. Either watch the damn shows (SD & RAW) and like it or don't watch it at all!

By the way..I think 2004 and was a notsogood year for SD but the past two years its been doing partially better. admit it.

Why don't you people quit complaining about wrestling and just watch it? It's so damn annoying when losers like that go on forums about bitch their little faces off. Either watch the damn shows (SD & RAW) and like it or don't watch it at all!
I know you are new, so I'll let you in on a little secret. This is a sports discussion forum. In this sports discussion forum, we not only root for certain sports, but we bitch/complain/cry/fight about certain sports as well. Feel free to join in, but if it isn't your type of thing, feel free to leave.

Anyway, I got tickets to Raw on Monday through work. It is in the Soverign Bank Arena in Trenton. This place is about 5 min away from my house and is SMALL. I can't believe they are having a RAW there, but hell, I can't wait. Look for me...I'll be the naked one with the Hogan mask challenging John Cena with a bud light in hand.

[duffless89]

Some of you guys have to be at Wrestlecrap, don't you? Cos I've seen those pictures there as well.

I'm Excellence Of Execution there by the way.

i was sikkbones there a long time ago before i got banned for starting a flame war with the guy giving head to hogan in that pic at his forum... not wrestlecraps.

[Maxxmuscle]

Has anyone been on a site called Obsessed with Wrestling? I go on that site a lot.

[bauer]

Yeah, I do. The wrestler profiles alone are worth checking out the site.

[duffless89]

Yeah, I do. The wrestler profiles alone are worth checking out the site.

Wikipedia is actually surprisingly good in this department as well.

Some news on an old WWF'r:

The W365 newsletter is reporting that former WWF and Pacific Northwest
wrestling star Billy Jack Haynes suffered a severe beating when he was
attacked outside a Portland Body shop last month. Haynes was attacked
with brass knucles and suffered a broken jaw, cheek and eye socket.
This has been an on going story in Phil Stanford's "On The Town" column
in the Portland Tribune.

Pieces of the story can be found here:

[Maxxmuscle]

I hope that Billy Jack Haynes will be alright.

[bauer]

Wikipedia is actually surprisingly good in this department as well.
Yeah, but with Wikipedia, you have to actually search for a name, right? With Obsessed with Wrestling, you can just look through pages of wrestlers and see guys you haven't even thought about in 15 years.

RIP Johnny Grunge

*waves arms side to side*

[sikkbones]

2/16/2006
Former ECW star Johnny Grunge passes away
Wrestlemag.com @ 2:08 pm
Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer is reporting that Mike “Johnny Grunge” Durham of ECW’s Public Enemy tag team was pronounced dead on arrival earlier this morning at a hospital in Atlanta, GA.

The only details available at this time are that he was at a friend’s house in Peachtree City, GA and was reportedly gasping for air and then rushed to the hospital. The early word based on the preliminary diagnosis from the Atlanta hospital was that his passing was said to have had to do with complications from sleep apnea.

Grunge was one half of the Public Enemy tag team with Rocco Rock, aka Teddy Petty, who passed away in 2002 following a heart attack. Public Enemy were first created in ECW and became subject to a bidding war between both WCW and WWF where unfortunately they never recreated the success they had had during their time in ECW.

Argh...I met both Rocco Rock and Johnny Grunge. They both seemed like great guys the times I met them. Such a shame.

[Maxxmuscle]

Thats too bad. Now both members of Public Enemy are dead. I will miss them.
I saw them in WCW. They were great. I liked when they brought down the
table to the ring.

[Ray Magini]

I think they should've brought back Brock Lesnar when they had the chance. He would be a great asset to Smackdown and a main contender for the World Title.

[bauer]

I think they should've brought back Brock Lesnar when they had the chance. He would be a great asset to Smackdown and a main contender for the World Title.
But.....an awful, awful wrestler.

[Ray Magini]

Haha......bullshit! Brock Lesnar was an all-american wrestler in the NCAA and was the greatest athlete on Smackdown. You know it and everyone else knows it, gravymaster. (whatever the hell that means)

[bauer]

There is a difference between an all american wrestler and a exciting, entertaining, skilled professional wrestler. Kurt Angle is a perfect example of someone who crosses over brilliantly.....Lesnar was the complete opposite. Looked awkward in the ring, hurt other wrestlers on many occasions from fucking up moves and couldn't work the mic to save his life.

[Ray Magini]

He looked great in the ring...he had a bunch of great matches. Mic work isn't everything...Brock had some excellent matches with Undertaker, Angle, Big Show, and a bunch of other people and was a fan favorite for awhile. He was great.

[Maxxmuscle]

He looked great in the ring...he had a bunch of great matches. Mic work isn't everything...Brock had some excellent matches with Undertaker, Angle, Big Show, and a bunch of other people and was a fan favorite for awhile. He was great.
He also had a great match with Goldberg too.

[Voodoo Monkey]

If you can ignore the crowd, lack of build, and absence of half-decent wrestling.

[Dr Zaius]

Where is Jericho nowadays anyway?

[Ray Magini]

Is he is in TNA?

[Maxxmuscle]

Chris Jericho is now wrestling at TNA.

[Ray Magini]

WWE needs to stop releasing so many superstars or else they're all going to go to TNA...tisk tisk tisk.

[Lizard Queen]

Jericho is at TNA - I didn't know that! Does anybody know what happened to Test? - not that I was a fan; I was thinking last night about the Stephanie/HHH saga and remembered that Test was a part of that. Is he on Smackdown - 'cause I don't watch that.

[Maxxmuscle]

Bob Orton got released just a little while ago.

[Ray Magini]

Test isn't even in the WWE anymore.

[bauer]

Brock had some excellent matches with Undertaker, Angle, Big Show, and a bunch of other people and was a fan favorite for awhile. He was great.
Why, cause they put him over? His wrestling ability was shit. Same goes for Goldberg, but at least he brought some intensity.

[Ray Magini]

He had great wrestling ability. Watch some of his old matches and you'll see.

[bauer]

You aren't ever going to convince me of that.

[Ray Magini]

Haha...well you aren't very observant. Did you even watch Smackdown in 2003?

[Maxxmuscle]

I remember back in June 2003 when Brock Lesner and The Big Show both fell
down and the whole ring broke.

[bauer]

Haha...well you aren't very observant. Did you even watch Smackdown in 2003?
Yes I did, he stinks. Never liked him.

[Ray Magini]

Whatever. You're entitled to an opinion.

**Yeah. That show where the ring broke was amazing.

[Curtis]

That show was in Orlando, my wrestling fan friend went and took a picture as it happened, I didnt go though :(

[Ray Magini]

Haha...I think the ref fell too when it broke.

[Dr. Horrible]

Chris Jericho is not wrestling at TNA.

fixed it for you, you might have been thinking of christian

also with brock lesnar, he had wrestling ability but had the personality of a brick, he needed a mouthpiece like heyman to take him to the top and good mike workers to keep him there (i.e. angle, early cena, taker)

[Ray Magini]

But the main point is that Brock had great wrestling ability.

[Dr. Horrible]

no the main point is that he was not a great pro wrestler

[Ray Magini]

Why, just because he couldn't work the mic the best? He had great matches.

[Lardlad Donuts]

Brock was an ass.
I agree he did have some good matches, though. The Goldberg match was snoresville, but the WM 19 match with Kurt Angle was absolutely amazing.

[bauer]

I was just checking out some Wrestlemania previews and there seems to be a lot of talk on a Austin vs Hogan match. Anyone else hear this?

[Lardlad Donuts]

Yeah...they were talking about that earlier in the year also. I think Hogan actually said something about it on RAW, too.

[bauer]

Yeah...they were talking about that earlier in the year also. I think Hogan actually said something about it on RAW, too.
Oh, yeah, I remember that now. I thought Austin had a bad enough injury that he couldn't wrestle anymore. But oh well, I'd like to see it if it happened.

Can't wait for Raw tonight. Not only will I be seeing the 3 way dance, but Flair vs Benjamin for the strap. Nice.

[Lardlad Donuts]

Hogan vs. Austin would be a hell of a match.

[Voodoo Monkey]

There are no plans for Austin to be at Mania in any form, and Hogan will only do it if he gets a big name opponent, which won't happen.

[sikkbones]

Brock was an ass.
I agree he did have some good matches, though. The Goldberg match was snoresville, but the WM 19 match with Kurt Angle was absolutely amazing.
u mean the one where he farked up the shooting star press and landed on his head?
great match.. cuz angle carried him...

his best matches were the ones with eddie where he lost the belt... ediie not only carried him he outclassed him 100% i'm kinda hoping 2 years from now that Brock lesnar is a toronto Argonaunt playing to a crowd of less than 100 people in the CFL.

[duffless89]

No Way Out

Gregory Helms won a 9-Man Cruiserweight Match to retain
JBL defeated Bobby Lashley
Matt Hardy and Tatanka (Mystery Partner) defeated MNM
Chris Benoit defeated Booker T (new US Champ)
Randy Orton defeated Rey Mysterio (new No. 1 contender)
Kurt Angle defeated The Undertaker to retain WHC

[sikkbones]

they better get rey back in world title contention this week or i will personally see to it that the talentless hack known as randy orton get's shot in the leg at wrestlemaina.

[bauer]

I still don't understand why they had Rey win the Royal Rumble if they were just going to have him lose his shot to Orton.

They are saying that the Angle/Taker match last night is not only a serious "match of the year" candidate, but probably Undertaker's best match of all time.

[Dr. Horrible]

i think theyre gonna go with the whole randy cheated to win so theyre gonna sldie rey rey in to make it a triple threat, which will be absolutely stellar

[Matt B.]

I still don't understand why they had Rey win the Royal Rumble if they were just going to have him lose his shot to Orton.

This proves the wwe has been running badly lately

[thecapecoddah]

hacksaw! the rockers!

you were the one holding the "fat guy in a lil' coat" sign, weren't you bauer

[Dr Zaius]

I still don't understand why they had Rey win the Royal Rumble if they were just going to have him lose his shot to Orton.


It was just so they could somehow utilate Eddie's death into an angle.

[The Chosen One]

Damn Triple H. RVD should've won that match last night. Triple H can't win unless he cheats.

[The Chosen One]

gravymaster, I think that's dumb too. Why would they have such a great thing happen (Rey winning the Royal Rumble and dedicating it to Eddie) if they were just going to have him lose the opportunity to Randy Orton? I thought we finally found out that WWE had the guts to give Rey a WHC shot and be in the main event, but I guess they don't after all.

Another thing...I think it's pathetic how they used Eddie's tragic death as a storyline they way they did. Having Orton say those things about Eddie is really wrong in my opinion.

[Maxxmuscle]

Eddie G's name is being inducted into the 2006 Hall of Fame this year.

[bauer]

hacksaw! the rockers!

you were the one holding the "fat guy in a lil' coat" sign, weren't you bauer
I was the drunk one in a box suite with free food and beers. Woooooo! Loved the show, had a fucking blast.

[duffless89]

Mean Gene Okerlund is going into the Hall Of Fame this year.

Oh, and HBK kissed some ass.

[Dr. Horrible]

not to mention saturday nites main event is going to kick some major ass

they pretty much destroyed what was left of cenas credibility though, damn shame no one can stop the seed of mcmahon

[Maxxmuscle]

Hulk Hogan is inducting Mean Gene Okerlund into the Hall of Fame.
They have been together since the days of the AWA promotion.

[sikkbones]

anyone think rey has achance of winning the belt at WM??

[Matt B.]

I think he has a chance

[Dr. Horrible]

if rey doesn't win i will eat my hat

[duffless89]

if rey doesn't win i will eat my hat

Butter it up now, SJM, because WWE is pushing Randy to the stars.

[Dr. Horrible]

i somehow doubt it considering the chavo/randy thing thats been goin on

i think a kurt/rey fued is on the horizon post-wm

[Maxxmuscle]

Edge is taking on Mick Foley at WM 22.

[Dr Zaius]

Has "retired" ever meant "retired" in wrestling?

[sikkbones]

if rey doesn't win i will eat my hat

want some gravy with that hat?

[Dr. Horrible]

sig bet anyone?

[sikkbones]

sig bet anyone?
your on.

[Maxxmuscle]

Does anyone care that Kurt Angle is a great wrestler or not?

[sikkbones]

Does anyone care that Kurt Angle is a great wrestler or not?

before or after brokenneck mountain?

[bauer]

Does anyone care that Kurt Angle is a great wrestler or not?
I do. His great wrestling was a good base for his character, which he has grew to what he is now. He gets over big time with the crowd and I love his psychopathic attitude. Good stuff, that Angle is.

[sikkbones]

Stacy has a meeting with the president of ABC tomorrow to discuss future roles on the network. It's known that Stacy had been trying to get into acting for years now, along with Torrie Wilson.

When AskMen.com did their Top 99 Most Desirable Women of 2006, they said that Torrie Wilson was the most likely to cross over from wrestling. However, the way things are looking right now, Stacy Keibler is much more likely to start getting more movie and TV roles.

This past Dancing With The Stars competition got much more media coverage than the previous one, with Stacy Keibler usually being one of the centerpieces.

There have been a couple indications of tension between Keibler and WWE, including her talking negatively about WWE in interview and WWE removing all coverage of her from their website for a short period of time.

Stacy’s contract with WWE expires in July.

Reason For The Dicks' Release From WWE

Credit: Pro Wrestling Torch

Last week it was being reported on WWE’s website that they had released Tank Tolland and Chad Wicks (The Dicks). It’s being said that the main reason they were released was because of a fight between Tolland and Wicks.

Reports indicate that Wicks were being constantly ribbed and hazed by a number of SmackDown! wrestlers including JBL, Chris Benoit and The Undertaker. Wicks handled the ribbing poorly, and he'd often complain about it, which lead to even more ribbing.

Tolland felt that Wicks' constant complaining would put their jobs in jeopardy. Just recently, the tag team partners had a physical altercation as Tolland punched Wicks. The fight put WWE management in a sticky situation because they couldn't possibly justify firing the wrestler who was punched and not the wrestler who did the punching. And thus, WWE decided to just release the both of them.

Tolland and Wicks will be going their separate ways on the indy scene.


PWInsider reports that Scott Steiner is in talks with TNA Wrestling about coming in for the promotion's impending jump to Spike TV's Thursday night primetime lineup.

No deal has yet been made, but the discussions are believed to be serious.

This news comes on the heels of reports that TNA was looking to secure as many as five top "Monday Night Wars" era pro wrestlers not currently attached to WWE.
