Enigma

Very loud "BOR-RING" and "T-N-A" chants for Khali vs. Show

Did JR just call Tazz "The Tazz"? Opening bout: MVP vs. Hardy Miz & Morrison beat Yang & Moore in the dark match

I agree this is how they should explain the move. Regal is KotR and a full time wrestler, so Raw needed a GM. I don't mind Coach as a PBP guy, but he's not a color commentator. Or you could just keep him off television until they get fed up with Adamle (or Adamle quits). Adamle's not qutting and they aren't going to shitcan him either. Adamle's not going to piss away a $300,000 salary and likewise WWE won't pay that for someone to sit at home.

Might as well make Coach the Raw GM. Not much is being done with that role these days, especially since William Regal is reportedly about to get pushed and thus will wrestle more.

WWE.Com announced that Mick Foley will begin his Smackdown color commentary job tonight at Backlash.

WWE.Com has announced that Mick Foley has accepted the position to become Smackdown's color commentator and will begin his duties tonight at Backlash.

How can you honestly use that show as a critique? That show was all about ECW memories. I seriously doubt Foley would constantly pine about his battles with the Undertaker other than a simple "I've been in the ring with him and he's..." stuff to pump him up.

For what it's worth, I remember the original PPV feed caught Diana Smith getting into the ring after the match and cut to the ringside cameraman a little too soon, going right up her dress. She was either going commando or wearing a very skimpy g-string.

Venk isn't American.

Mike Adamle, Coach, and Tazz would be a total trainwreck.

It's about to be. He was signed in May 2006.

Who would have thought that Balls Mahoney would have lasted two years in WWE, especially given Axl Rotten's drama which led to him never even being signed?

A censor filter? Fuck.

The reason they called the police is that someone was posting a pornographic YouTube video on the message board that was presumably viewed by a child. Microsoft has done the same thing about the people with the Xbox 360 webcam sending obscene pictures and videos to accounts they aren't aware are minors.

Jason Powell of ProWrestling.net is reporting that at least three "FIRE MIKE ADAMLE" signs were confiscated at the Greensboro, NC Smackdown/ECW taping.

Former WWE Champion Rob Van Dam posted a sad blog on his website today, revealing that his wife, Sonya Szatkowski, has been diagnosed with colon cancer.

Mike Adamle's second week on ECW saw the rating drop from 1.3 to 1.1, so there were no curiosity viewers this week to see the commentary trainwreck.

Another spoiler update. Whoever sent in Meltzer's spoilers claimed they are now referring to Natalya Neidhart as just "Natalya".

Just posted more detailed spoilers along with more humorous Mike Adamle hijinx.

More Mike Adamle hijinx. After the ECW taping concluded, Mike Adamle remained seated at the announcers desk for several minutes. He appeared to have no idea that he was supposed to leave the ringside area. Michael Cole and Jonathan Coachman were walking to the ring by the time Adamle got up to head backstage. He was so late leaving that Edge's entrance music was playing for his appearance on Smackdown while Adamle was still walking to the backstage area.

DARK MATCHES Funaki defeated Stu Stiggs (sp?) After the match, Chuck Palumbo came out and made fun of the fans for cheering Funaki's win like he won the World Heavyweight Title. Palumbo offered his bike to Funaki if he could beat him. Palumbo squashed Funaki. SMACKDOWN The show begins with Edge, GM Vickie Guerrero, Teddy Long, Chavo Guerrero, Bam Neely, and the Edgeheads in the ring. Vickie announces that tonight's Undertaker/Batista World Title match is now a no disqualification match. CM Punk interrupts. He brags about his Money in the Bank briefcase. He tells Vickie to make a match with him vs. Edge tonight. Vickie obliges. Shannon Moore (w/ Jimmy Wang Yang) defeated the Miz with John Morrison on commentary. Moore pinned Miz with a backslide after Miz missed a kick. Natalya (w/ Victoria) defeated Cherry (w/ Michelle McCool) with the sharpshooter. She was only announced as "Natalya" so it seems she's no longer a Neidhart in WWE land. Michael Cole is in the ring for an interview with Matt Hardy. Hardy proclaims himself 100% and ready to take the U.S. Title at Backlash. MVP comes out and they talk trash to each other about the match at Backlash. MVP tries to talk Hardy out of the match and ends up smacking him with the microphone. He then lays him out with the U.S. Title belt. Edge defeated CM Punk. Punk was distracted by Hawkins and Ryder, which lead to a spear from Edge for the win. Vladimir Kozlov squashed local jobber, Marty Garner. You may remember Garner as MVP's debut jobber opponent at No Mercy 2006. In the main event, the Undertaker defeated Batista to retain the World Heavyweight Title. Shawn Michaels did a run-in from the crowd and hit Batista with a superkick. Michaels high-tailed it back through the crowd as Taker tombstoned him for the win. End of show. Notes: Mike Adamle brought out a monstrous notebook with him along with a photobook. After the ECW taping finished, Adamle goofed and stayed at ringside until Michael Cole & Jonathan Coachman came out. Adamle was so late getting out of ringside that he was still in the aisle walking backstage when Edge's theme music played at the start of Smackdown.

I can't believe they got Barack to say that.

Warrior's not stupid. He's not going to go all super saiyan right now. He's saving that.

That Dave Meltzer poster needs to post WON notes every week on WWE.Com.

Message board posting is currently not enabled. That didn't last long. Wow. That forum is nothing but gimmick posters now. It's hilarious.
