Although WWE cannot officially make it a rule for fear of a discrimination lawsuit, WWE talent relations has the opinion that new wrestlers must be 6 feet/225 lbs to have a chance in the company; the taller and heavier the better. Considering WWE's best workers tend to be right around that minimum, many worry that WWE is risking not hiring the Benoits and Angles of the future. Credit: PWInsider No surprise here, but what does that say for the cruiserweight division? And if a guy is 5-11 they won't hire him? Stupid.

What about using human growth hormones? Brock Lesnar was arrested in 2001 (and released) for what police originally thought were steroids, but I guess they were human growth hormone pills. Are those still really dangerous to take? Side effects?

What/when was this?

How long were Ian and Axl Rotten in ECW? I know Ian started IWA-MS in 1996, so did he have a falling out with Heyman and if so, over what? Were there ever any plans to put the world title on Tommy Dreamer at Barely Legal instead of Terry Funk? It just seems that would have been the perfect place for Dreamer to finally beat Raven. Why did New Jack never get in any real trouble for the Mass Transit incident? Because Kulas falsified documents and had asked New Jack to cut him? When did Corino debut in ECW? What happened between Mind Games in September of 96 where Sandman spit beer on Savio Vega and the ECW Invades RAW show in February 97? Did they build up ECW at all over those few months?
-
Oh, I have a question. How/when did Sabu come back after no-showing that show in 1995 where Heyman buried him publicly?
-
How long was Abdullah the Butcher with WCW? What was the time period of Bill Watts' control in WCW?

You think Cena will be at Armageddon? I'm thinking US title tournament. At least that's what I'd LIKE to see.
-
Cena's chain is like Taker trying to get his urn back.

Just got back from class...how has the show been?
-
Just curious if anyone is going to pick this up when it's released in December. I know I'm kind of interested in it. Also, was R.D Reynold's Wrestlecrap book any good, or should I just stick to the website?

Watch the interview. Heyman doesn't bash TNA like you guys say he is. Josh Matthews asks him if they are competition to the WWE, and he says no. He says that Jerry Jarrett is a brilliant business man though, because they've probably lost 10, 12, maybe 15 million dollars, but it was Panda's money, not theirs. He says short answer, no, they're not competition, but he wishes they were because the business needs it, but right now they're not.

I was just watching the tape of tonight's RAW where HHH tells Batista that nothing good can come of him thinking, he's joking, lighten up, etc. My quesiton is this...if Batista turned face now, they canned the mega Orton push, and gave Batista the push towards a Wrestlemania main event with HHH, could he get over more than Orton would? I really think he could.

All reviews I have seen have said that Bischoff comes off as a total asshole on the DVD. I'm getting it in the mail tomorrow, can't wait to see it.

Just got done watching Byte This, you guys really need to watch this. Just to see Heyman beaming when he talks about Tazz or RVD or Dreamer is great stuff. Brings back a lot of memories and the passion these guys all had/have for ECW is just amazing. It just shows how ECW had HEART and EMOTION, something the WWE is sorely lacking these days. Heyman telling the Super Crazy story where the fans counted "uno, dos, tres" was just fantastic. So much cool stuff on this episode, I really wish it could have gone longer. When Heyman leaves the WWE, I really want to see a shoot video of his.
-
Who do you think it is?
-
This is utterly hilarious. At least TNA actually pays there talent unlike Heyman was for the last year or so of ECW's existence. He's the last person that should talk about a company losing money. That's actually not what he says in the interview. He says Jerry Jarrett is brilliant because he's losing someone elses money, but he still thinks they aren't competition. He says he WISHES they were competition and that the WWE NEEDS competition right now, but he doesn't think they are.

Tommy Dreamer, as they joke about why he and Heyman can never be in the same room together: "We think alike, and if we get together then something good might happen in wrestling, and we can't have that."
-
Paul goes off on how Taz with one Z would have been fired from the WWE because he says Taz told him the truth back in the ECW days and argued about the product because they cared. Heyman says today people couldn't handle it if you told them that they should go a different direction and that what they are doing is the wrong way to go. Awesome.
-
Heyman talks about King Mabel and the crowd chanting ECW during the coronation. He talks about all the cartoonish characters back in the day and how ECW provided a different product. I wonder what Paul thinks of things today... EDIT: I guess this really isn't about Heyman bashing TNA, my fault.
-
This is really good stuff, you people really should watch this interview.
-
Anyone know why I can see Byte This but can't hear the show? EDIT: Nevermind. I'll watch the show and see what I think.
-
Yep, pretty much.
-
This is a weird ass South Park.

I think Jimmy's funny. I always laugh at "orange you glad I didn't say ban-nee-nee" Yeah, I caught the 6-0 slide too. I think it's good so far, but we'll see how they finish it.
