Maybe James Bryan Hellwig wasn't that crazy to legally change his name to The Ultimate Warrior?

They don't have any more of an ideal what they're going to do with Triple H/Batista then we do. They tested the waters with Batista and it surprised them by the reaction he's getting. But, with their dicks so far up Orton's ass it's hard to tell. There are a few different ways they could go here. People are waiting for Batista to either tell Triple H to fuck off and go out on his own or for Triple H to finally turn on Batista. Plus, you have Edge who's getting pretty big heat for his heel quest for the title. If this was April, May or later they could have a good six months worth of storylines and feuds around these guys and others, but with Wrestlemania around the corner they're probably blow it and stick with what Vince and Triple H has wanted from the start.

Is there also a new Road Rules being filmed?

Obviously Good Charlotte are morons when the guitarist does an interview with Guitar World magazine and says.... "I just don't see the influence that guys like Hendrix and Clapton supposedly have on people. I think the guitarist for Pennywise, and the guy from Rancid are a million times better, those guys have their own particular style. You know a Rancid song when you hear it"

What wrestling needs in the womens department is some second generation female wrestlers. What's Bret Hart's daughters up too? I remember his oldest being pretty tall. She has to be in her early 20's by now? Brooke Hogan can stay home and sing in her bedroom.

Until Steph or Triple H swips it off the table.

At this point, I could careless if Brock could draw and the business stayed in it's current condition. I want to be entertained and Brock always did that for me. I have no stock in the company and as long as it doesn't go out of business, I, myself, want to be entertained. I shouldn't compare the two, but Bret Hart's return at Survivor Series '96 didn't turn the business around but I was happy as Hell as a fan to see him return. Same with Brock now.

It wouldn't be the first time, and won't be the last time, that Vince has thrown away a money angle just for the sake of ego. And people wonder where Steph and Triple H get it from?

I wouldn't write back neither if someone sent me a written correspondence in crayon with smiley faces and hearts.

I been a fan of the JBL character from the start. I always thought it would be a good mid/upper card character. Kind of like Carlito at the moment. Never thought JBL should be in the main event spot. But, damn, I've eatin' some crow.

First off, Velvet Revolver didn't make a great album, but either did Evanescence in my opinion. The difference being, STP and GNR have made great albums and songs that have lasted over time while Amy Lee and her hired studio musicians have yet to prove themselves. Plus, VR has more talent in that band then Evanescence ever will. Second, Slash is far from being just some "celebrity." Third, why is anyone asking Amy Lee how the industry has changed since she's only been around a few years at best?

They'd be stupid not to take Brock back if he could help business. They took people back like Hogan, Nash, Hall and even Brock's women Sable who were past their physical prime who burned Vince a lot more then Brock going to the NFL. Does/did Brock mean as much to wrestling as Hogan, Nash and Hall? No. But a lot of people were saying Brock was on his way to being one of the greats before he walked out. Triple H had it out for Brock well before he left because Brock was a better heel and was having much better matches then Triple H around that time.

Did he really call Brock a "big gorilla?"

I have no answer for being put over Steph, but she became Vince's bitch after Brock walked and that was Vince's ego saying "ha ha, motherfucker!" Also, didn't matter if Hogan was jobbed out because he made Vince a shit load of money in merchandise sales alone. Originally, Vince must have thought he could make a profit off Sable's return as well.

Just for kicks,,,

I never heard of Sable being a slut.

I could deal with Sable on TV if it means Brock would return. I could also deal with all you guys ripping into Brock's work rate from being out of the ring for so long until he gets better.

Thinking of those two fighting is almost as funny as...

I've been out of it the last month since I've moved. Why has the Raw thread been neutered? P.S. Nice to see the Disabled feature is still in full effect.

Take this for what it is....... rumor for now. Link forum

from Blabbermouth: As has been widely reported in the media, Elektra/Atlantic recording group DAMAGEPLAN suffered a horrible tragedy at their show in Columbus, Ohio on Wednesday night. Guitarist Dimebag Darrell was shot and killed, as was the band's head of security, Jeffrey "Mayhem" Thompson, an employee of the club, Erin Halk, and a member of the audience, Nathan Bray. Chris Paluska, a member of the band's management team who was serving as tour manager, was shot and is in critical but stable condition. John "Kat" Brooks, the band's drum tech, was also shot and is being released from the hospital today. DAMAGEPLAN drummer Vinnie Paul issued the following statement: "With all his greatness and accomplishments on the guitar, Dime will be missed more for his giving personality, charisma, caring for others, love and most of all his HEART!! Twice as big as the state of TEXAS!!!!!!!!!!!! Dime gave it all every day to each and every one of us and our lives have forever been hollowed without him...Thanks to all of you for reaching out to us in this time of our immeasurable loss. REST IN PEACE BROTHER DIME!!!!!!" The surviving members of DAMAGEPLAN issued the following joint statement: "Jeffrey 'Mayhem' Thompson was not just a true part of the DAMAGEPLAN family, but part of the whole Dallas music scene. He was friend to all, with a great personality. He bent over backward to help us all with his trademark phrases like 'What can I do for you sir?' and 'Coming up!' He also stated his willingness to protect us, saying 'I'd take a bullet for ya,' and unfortunately did in defense of our lives. He truly lived and died for his friends and made the ultimate sacrifice, giving his life to save ours. For this we will never forget. You will be missed big man."

I'm shocked at the amount of people saying "how could security and the club let this happen?" I've gone to more then a few clubs where bands are playing over the years and never get checked at the doors for weapons. The usual is check for ID, tear my ticket stub or pay for the ticket at the door. Then you walk in after you get the bracelet saying you're over 21. Next to never do I get checked for weapons unless I go to arena's. Not even the large out door shed shows do I get checked.. And On that note... Some tributes... ..

People on the Damageplan board are saying Vinnie is dead too.
