The New (Spam Free) Never Ending Wrestling Thread

And now for your lulz of the day:

WWE officials are scrambling to come up with an idea for Christian upon his return from injury. Initially, Christian was to come back as an assistant to VP John Laurinaitis, but that has been nixed as a number of civil rights groups have already complained based on a rejected script. "The WWE is attempting to bring slavery into their brand", stated Jonah Gonzalez of the ASU (Anti-Slavery Union). "It's widely known that Jay Reso is a big supporter of slavery, but his employer does not have to perpetuate this." Christian, whose real name is Jay Reso, made headlines last year while trying to bring home a slave purchashed during a WWE sanctioned trip to Malaysia in early 2011.

WTF

[demolition23]

thought the rumble was really bad. not one "holy shit moment". together with the 2010 RR this was the worst one I can remember.

that handstand gimmick was pretty cool.

Yep. But that was just a variation on JoMo's parcour jump to the barrier last year.
Otherwise, Kharma's moment was the only real surprise (to me anyhow).

But the match itself had no real flow or interesting subplots. It just kinda happened.

- As noted before, Natalya's farting gimmick is scheduled to continue on SmackDown. Sources report that the angle is being done to get Natalya over, believe it or not, and provide entertainment.

What the fuck? Pro Wrestling dot net as far as I know isn't one of those copy and paste bullshit sites (rajah.com anyone?) and I assume this whole story is a joke but I wonder why they'd publish it.

[LAglamrocker]

no its done so Vince can laugh at the Bret Hart family once again.

Sounds about right. There is no way any of the family could be happy about it ?!?!

Can you explain this please? There must be more than I know about.

Sting is just a little bitch, and a scared bitch also

Sting would rather be the dude talk forever "what if Taker vs Sting at Mania"
he talks the talk but when he has a chance he runs away

I hope WWE stops calling him

I was wondering why the crowd was so interested in Eve's corner after she tagged out...

Eve Torres was rushed backstage as soon as she tagged out of the ring during the eight Divas tag match on Raw. Torres was drilled hard by a Beth Phoenix clothesline. She was severely bleeding from her nose and the immediate word we are getting is that she suffered a broken nose.

HHH and a lot of others backstage are said to be very down on the Miz after his big fuck-up last night in which R-Truth got hurt.

R-Truth is not seriously injured but is reported to be very sore both from the head bump as well as the way his tail-end hit the outside mat.

[MetalDad72]

While making the media rounds last week promoting TNA Impact from London, Sting revealed he was "very, very close" to jumping to WWE last year. He also said during an interview with CNY KISS FM that he's undecided on whether it was the right decision.

Asked if he regrets not going to WWE, Sting said, "Yes and no. Who wouldn't want to say they did at least one WrestleMania? I'd like to be able to say I did at least one of those, and that would be it.

"I've had great conversations with him (Vince McMahon) over the years and been real close on probably three or four different occasions of going up there. But, there was always a need met or a desire of mine met with WCW and now with TNA, so I stay."

The topic was brought up when Sting stressed that a match with The Undertaker is at the top of his list of remaining dream matches his career.

"I'd have to say the top one, and it's all over Twitter, I might as well just comment on it - Undertaker. Wrestling fans have wanted to see Sting vs. Undertaker for years. And, I think between his gimmick and mine, it could be pretty cool," Sting said.

Sting also addressed the yearly retirement discussions and being year-to-year with TNA. "Every year, I say, 'I think this will be the last year,'" he said. "Nostalgia is huge. For me, it's huge." He added that wrestling fans keep drawing him back in to wrestling every year.

Also in the interview, Sting discussed his routines with pain medication and warm-ups, picked the New England Patriots to win the Super Bowl, and noted he is currently living on a ranch in the Dallas, Texas area.

Audio: Sting's nine-minute interview can be heard at CNYKiss.com or in the player below.

Betcha Sting kicks himself in the ass everyday for passing on that match last year. Talk about missed opportunities. In ten years when somebody interviews him he will say not going to the WWE for that match will be his biggest regret in his career.

[eddie lee roth]

Its like New York its so good you have to say it twice.

New York New York there I feel better now.

[ParaDime77]

no its done so Vince can laugh at the Bret Hart family once again.

Can you explain this please? There must be more than I know about.

It's common place for Vince and his staff to humiliate wrestlers/announcers/Divas in their hometowns for his own laughs. Vince has always had an up and down relationship with the Hart family and loves to "humble" them whenever he gets the chance to do so. You could blame this on Bret jumping ship back in 1997 or you could also blame it on Diana Hart-Smith blaming Vince somewhat for the eventual death of her late husband, British Bulldog, Davey Boy Smith.

[WolfgangVonPage]

Thanks Para. I am aware of the Vince Hart problems. I thought there was maybe a link to the Harts via the slave angle and Christian.

I know the Harts are not all innocent, but Vince is the worst imo.

[MetalDad72]

I'll bet Bret loves the Natalia farting angle.

John Morrison new WWF Champion its true! or WWFX
Main Event: John Hennigan vs. Shelton Benjamin for the vacant WWFX World Championship

- Colt introduced the World Championship first. Benjamin then came out to cheers, then finally Hennigan. A lot of stalling in the beginning, with both men locking up and Benjamin attempting to walk out of the match. Hennigan eventually pulled him back in to really get it underway.

Momentum went back and forth. Referee Rudy Charles took a bump after Hennigan ducked a big boot from Shelton Benjamin. Hennigan hit the Shining Wizard on Shelton, but couldn't seal the win due to Charles still down. This left John open for the Paydirt, but Shelton also couldn't capitalize. A second referee went down to make the count for Shelton, but only got to two, so he ate a superkick from Shelton. Hennigan managed to recover and hit the Starship Pain, by which point Charles managed to get up and count the pin and win.

Winner, and FIRST WWFX World Champion: John Hennigan

So Johnny Nitro decided to go with his real name?

Meanwhile, Batista is sexy and he knows it:

[FullDJacket]

Jobber Batista was a fun wrestler but as soon as he reached that top level he was boring.

All I can tell you is that I was a casual WWF fan back in the day and I never heard of Sting. I heard of Hogan, I heard of Goldberg and even Ric Flair but not Sting.

Of course Sting was a main eventer in WCW but I think you guys are playing it up a little bit

I'd heard of Sting in New Zealand in 1989 as a 12 year old in a country that didn't even show NWA. Dude was on the covers of all those wrestling mags all the time.

Look how often he shows up on this page, especially the 'Most Popular Wrestler of the Year' award.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pro_Wrestl ... ted_awards

Samoa Joe was the most popular wrestler in the world?

I'm not lying, I never knew who Sting was. I probably did see him on the cover of some video game or something but I never took notice of him.

[ParaDime77]

So Johnny Nitro decided to go with his real name?

Meanwhile, Batista is sexy and he knows it:

The WWE owns the rights to the name John Morrison and I'm sure Johnny Nitro as well, very strategic move on their behalf as it kills the drawing ability for the guys when they are forced to use their real name.

Yeah, that's standard operating procedure. I'm sure that's why many guys come in with a new name, such as Brian Danielson/Daniel Byran.

[Monty610]

Gotta love the prescription bottles in the bottom of the Batista photo.

Roids, or painkillers?

Poor Bob, everywhere he goes marks just ask him about his son.

before its asked, no-one watched TNA pay per view last night!



i bet more were at WWEBakersfield house show at 5pm then ordered the Sting ref garbage

[SebastianLeeDanzig]

I watched it and saw Jesse Sorensen being turned into a paraplegic. When's the last time your precious WWE showed you something like that? Maybe they'll sign Hayabusa now to fight TNA for the compassion market shares.

Heard about that, what exactly happened?

[SebastianLeeDanzig]

About two minutes in, Zema Ion backflip-kneed him in the head outside the ring, causing him to immediately collapse like a sack of shit. It quickly became obvious he couldn't move whatsoever, so he was counted out. I guess it was more bad luck and lack of experience than a botched move on either one's part.

The show kicked ass besides that. Roode keeps retaining the title in the most bullshit ways! He's doin a great job though. Hope sorrenson is ok

[Lardbucket]

Broken neck for Sorensen:
(this is from Lords of Pain)

- The following comes from TNA and President Dixie Carter regarding Jesse Sorensen's status:

"Jesse Sorensen has sustained a C1 vertebrae fracture with spinal cord edema. He is slowly regaining feeling and movement in his arms and legs. He wants to thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. Once we speak to the neurosurgeon, we will pass on more details."

[Captain Morgan]

Apparently Angle's saying that he's looking at about a year of recovery...

How about RAW last night? I'd say even if they never "officially" turn Cena heel, enough people will think he's a total douchebag. This would be a great chance to push Ryder even stronger after he "heals" up.
