I wish I was given a dollar whenever people say things like, "Taker should get one more title run before retiring. Taker should return to the "Deadman" gimmick before retiring. Taker should win at Wrestlemania and retire undefeated."

I might as well stop watching wrestling if I have to put up with these storylines for years to come.

Brian Christopher was released from WWE last night following RAW. WWE had just brought Christopher back but was upset when he showed up late to a RAW house show over the weekend. Christopher was originally released from WWE back in 2001 due to drug problems. Credit: 1wrestling.com I know my heart is broken.

Report – Goldberg/Austin interview @ Lakers/Spurs Game Tonight at halftime of Game 4, LA Fox Sports anchor Larry Burnett interviewed Goldberg and Steve Austin. Here are the highlights: · Burnett referred to Austin as “Stone Cold” but was quickly cut of by Austin who reminded Burnett that he is now only Steve Austin because Vince McMahon owns the name Stone Cold. Austin said it didn’t matter though because Steve Austin still has the same attitude & demeanor and it’s not about the name, it's about the person. · Goldberg said they were at the game because of his friendship w/ Karl Malone. Goldberg is clearly a Lakers fan. Austin reminded both Burnett and Goldberg that he is from San Antonio, but never came right out and said he was a Spurs fan. · Goldberg stated he is still very good friends with both Malone and Shaq. · Burnett then jokingly asked Goldberg if he owned his own name and, in Steve Austin fashion, said “Hell Yeah”. · Burnett asked Goldberg if and when he was going to go back to wrestling for the WWE. Goldberg said, “I’m done – Vince McMahon can kiss my tuchhus”. Burnett then asked Austin and he more congenially said, “never say never”. Burnett then asked Austin about going back even though he’s suffered many injuries and he said you never know what could happen in that business. Burnett must have thought Goldberg was kidding so he asked him again and Goldberg said, “I’ll be back approximately 50 yrs after Steve Austin returns”. · Burnett then asked Goldberg about his movie project “Santa Sleigh”. Goldberg said he enjoys acting, especially when you consider that a 6’4”, 280 crazy Jewish guy can play Santa Claus. (Hilarious) · Burnett wrapped up the segment by thanking both of them & to enjoy the rest of the game. Austin intervened and thanked Goldberg for showing him around LA and how much he really enjoys it here. Overall, both Austin and Goldberg came across great, except Goldberg is seemingly very bitter towards McMahon. I think we’ve seen the last of Goldberg based on his comments. Most of all I was impressed with Burnett, who is a mainstream sports anchor here in LA who came across as exceptionally knowledgeable about Austin, Goldberg, WWE and even went on to say how he finds it interesting how many pro sports athletes enjoy and look up to pro wrestlers. All in all, an excellent segment. Credit: 411mania.com

Ripper, I don't think any of us are Clay fans. Just saying he won the battle. Actually, I think Clay is pretty funny. I saw his video last week and he had skaters and punk looking kids in it. Gives me another reason to mess with pop punk fans.

Kimberley Locke. But the judges were fixated on Clay/Ruben and basically gave them gimmicks from the get-go that she didn't have a chance. Maybe that's why people aren't voting who the judges are telling them to this year.

Hasn't Clay been more successful then Ruben? And that's all that matters in the world of POP music.

If that vanilla sounding, over weight slob, wannabe Luther Vandross can win American Idol then Diana's 16 y/o baby fat shouldn't be a problem. Isn't it a singing contest? Or is that just what they want you to believe?

I also want to point out Kelly is in her 20's which gives her the edge. That Diana girl is only 16 you pervs.

Sorry for being completely out of the loop, but why a 6 sided ring? Is it a one time thing for a special match on the first show? Shock value? Is it permanent? Will they begin using it on PPV's as well? It just doesn't make sense. Or sound like a good idea.

What the bloody Hell is this crap?

I love that the crowds on Raw don't even seem to give a shit Austin is gone. Besides a few "What" chants, I haven't heard any "AUSTIN" chants.

Fridays. 1 or 2 hours?

Man, screw you guys. Honkin' On Bobo is the best Aerosmith album since Rocks, arguably PUMP. I'm going with Brides of Destruction. I finally heard the new song "Shut The Fuck Up" and it's the worst thing I've heard since, well, the last Crue album.

So America is voting off the more talented singers? Who ever could of seen that coming? Shows America's awful taste in music. TRL and top 40 radio should prove that. Talent doesn't sell in America, which ironically, American Idol proves.

So do I.... But it's still not worth $35. I'm not getting JD on my own, but if my uncle and brother want to get together and split it 3 ways then I'll probably watch it.

You know, some storylines take a few weeks to evolve. Continue watching, grasshopper. As for the people who are saying, "It's a flash in the pan gimmick that will never lead anywhere." Who cares? Enjoy it in the moment.

Yup, Eddie gets arrested. New, fresh and entertaining, folks.

I had the same exact thought! But who will they bring in for it? Eugene!!!!!! Screw Kane! Let Eugene be the monster of the battle royal.

"He has never come across any other wrestlers who are skilled in Karate." Doesn't RVD have multible black belts?

I posted this in the Raw thread.. Tonight on Raw, it was announced that next week's show will feature a singles match between Trish Stratus and Lita, as well as a 20-man battle royal, with the winner getting a title match with World Champion Chris Benoit at the Bad Blood Pay-per-view in June. Here are the advertised participants for the battle royal: 1. Rhyno 2. Sylvan Grenier 3. Rob Conway 4. Steven Richards 5. Grandmaster Sexay 6. Johnny Nitro 7. Garrison Cade 8. Shelton Benjamin 9. Rosey 10. Hurricane Helms 11. Christian 12. Val Venis 13. Batista 14. Kane 15. Matt Hardy 16. Ric Flair 17. Triple H 18. Randy Orton 19. Edge 20. Chris Jericho Credit: PWinsider Just so I'm clear, the Benoit/Triple H match was canceled for this?

Anyone else I would expect a run in and a screw job. But this is the The Undertaker so he beats Booker T clean and then gets attacked by Mordecai post match.

Did the title match get changed or cenceled?

Okay, did I miss something? Is Triple H getting a title shot next and in the battle royal?
