This, This and This.

I thought it was good until I realized no one (say Randy Orton), was coming out to save Edge. They pulled the trigger way too quick on bringing back the Authority.

Sounds like Macho Man will be announced as this year's first HOF inductee. About time.

I am for it. I actually watched his documentary this past weekend. It was pretty good. It danced around things predictably and highlighted his good qualities of course. Overall, not terrible.

USA Network President Chris McCumber announced eariler today that the USA Network will be bringing back Tough Enough.

The show will have live elements and interactive element.

The plan is to start filming after WrestleMania and the format will be wrestlers under contract to WWE, but not yet having appeared on television.

Hope Austin comes back but how is this going to work with people already under contract. I want more Arianes and Miss Universes.

So, what will the payoff for Tough Enough be? Don't get me wrong, I've enjoyed every season of Tough Enough so far, but since the participants are already under contract (meaning that they must be developmental talent that are not established characters on NXT), what will they win?

So they just added Nash, Billy Gunn and Sean Waltman to the list of people going to be on Raw "Reunion". If they play their cards right they could finally do a nWo/DX segment. 14 years too late, but nonetheless.

WALTMAN!!!!

SPOILERS:





* Bad News Barrett vs. R-Truth is next with Dean Ambrose on commentary. Truth rolled Barrett up for the non-title win after Barrett was distracted, talking trash to Ambrose, who was ignoring him.

Thoughts Swarley?

I mean why would this surprise me?

Thank you Solomonster Sounds Off.

Summer Slam sold out in like 10 seconds.

Just wanted to say shit like this is why WWE never takes complaints about the product seriously. As much as we can all cry and whine about the direction of the company, or someone's push, at the end of the day they sold out a PPV in 10 seconds. It's not like they could have sold it out faster if they tried. So what do they care? Just keep doing business as usual, it's working as far as they can tell.

Yup, all my casual friends wanted to go so I got on at 10am and couldn't even sniff a ticket.

For the record the presale password was SUMMERSLAM so it's possible a LOT of people bought the preorders.

"The Dragon" Tatsumi Fujinami will be announced on Smackdown, they ran a video package at the taping last night. Legendary NJPW & WW(W)F wrestler, 6-time IWGP Heavywight Champion, 2-time WWF International Heavyweight Champion, former NWA World Champion, former WWF World Light Heavyweight Champion, etc.

Currently co-promotes Muga / Dradition in Japan, still wrestling at age 60.

Well deserving induction. 9 time World Champ and inventor of the Dragon Sleeper, Dragon Suplex, Dragon Screw Leg-Whip, and Dragon Backbreaker.

why not?

In never going to happen but why not get your hopes up for a moment news...

Bryan said he approached management about letting him do a match with Shinsuke Nakamura on an upcoming tour of Japan, but they kind of blew him off

to follow up Shinsuke accepted the challenge on twitter

now I don't expect this to ever happen... but could you imagine?

Like fuck Bryan for even bringing this up and getting me thinking about it. NOW I'M MAD ABOUT SOMETHING THAT WON'T HAPPEN!!
