This show is entertaining, but it's easily the most unrealistic "reality" show ever. What kind of girl puts up with that kind of obsessive nonsense that Hulks son was spewing. Most women I know would take you off their radar and write you off as a sleezeball the second you refer to them as being "hot" let alonge saying that repeatedly.

Honestly, who else is there really left to get rid of? They've essentially purged the Heat and Velocity rosters, and they still need guys to work the House Shows and do TV squashes, unless they start dumping some of the mid-card guys like Snitsky, there's really no one left to get rid of.

To me at least, prior to his death, The British Bulldog was more or less just a has been that never was. He was always a big name in the buisness, and was always popular but it was never really justified. He was never really a draw outside of England, and is only rememberd for one really good match, through which he was carried almost move for move. I think he almost gets unfairly credited as a star in his era when there were other guys who may not have been as popular or successful as him, but were far better workers.

Legally his name is still Terry Bollea, thus making his children legally named Nick and Brooke Bollea, BUT Hogan's whole life is just one big fucking work, and he seems unable to draw the line between professional wrestling and the real world, so if he truely believes his name is Hulk Hogan, well then it's Hulk Hogan.

It was pretty entertaining, but it seemd like Hogan was told to push it way over the top for the sake of entertainment. Why would Hulk, or anyone for that matter approve of a 22 year old guy dating your 16 year old daughter? I could also understand someone of Hulk Hogans stature having to be concerned with the safety and security of his children, but the way Hogan was acting towards his daughter was just completely rediculous, and the fact that she took that kind of overprotective parenting in such stride was completely unrealistic as well. Overall though, it was pretty good. I'll keep watching.

Man, that Pee Wee's Big Adventure gag was gold.

I have my TiVo recording it, I'll watch it tonight when I come home from work.

My buddy and I screened this tonight at work, I went in expecting nothing, but it actually turned out to be pretty damn good. It's definitly more of a "Comic Book" movie with over the top super villainry and what have you compared to Batman which was a more down to earth, dark picture. You can't really fairly compare the two, because they're entirely different films. I really have no complaints overall, as it held up quite well to the original source material.

Clearly with Kenzo gone, the only logical thing for them to do with Hassan is to turn him face and give him Kenzo's old "I Love America" schtick.

Other notes from Scherer: A big reason for these talent cuts is the loss of Heat and Velocity during the move over to USA. WWE is even considering just ditching the shows starting now and just turning them into an all recap format untill they finally do get the ax. Jonathan Coachman being added to the announce position on RAW is being done as a mesage to Jerry Lawler, who may or may not have signed his new agreement yet. Lawler is currently making 250k a year, and does considerably less work then Coachman who is paid substantially less.

According to Scherer, when The Dudleyz signed in 1999, they had a clause in their agreement that when their WWE deal expires, all rights to their names and gimmick revert back to them, so they can be known as Buh Buh Ray and D'Von The Dudley Boyz at Indy Shows and in TNA.

According to PWI: Jannetty was signed with the hopes that they could run a Rockers reuinion on the House Shows over the summer. A series of legal troubles involving a domestic dispute and other problems put an end to that. The Dudleyz were holding out for more money and WWE didn't bite. They'll probobly be back some day, because they are too hot a talent to keep free. They were kept off TV to prevent them from getting any leverage in negotiations. They are considering TNA and Japan as possibilities. Dawn Marie's contract was bought out. WWE doesn't have much use for her in the role in which they normally use women, with her being pregnant. Charlie Haas just wasn't over, and wasn't worth what they were paying him. There's been a running joke int he back that when you're music plays, and you come out, and the crowd just stares blankly at you, you're getting the Haas pop. Unless TNA makes him an offer, he's probobly going to get away from pro wrestling. Jackie Gayda was just another pretty face in the crowd, and she was deemed unescessary. Matt Morgan knew his time was up when Carlito was moved to RAW. Plus, with Brock coming back, they don't want any other big guys doing the F-5. Bit Vito is coming in to team with Nunzio, so Nunzio is safe for now.

Out of all the wrestlers employed by WCW talent at the time of the buyout, only Booker T, Rey Mysterio, Shane Helms, and Kerwin White still have jobs on TV. That's four wrestlers out of the entire roster... and yet Viscera is here. I have a trouble accepting failed potential as an explanation for all the others. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm sure had Visceras Sexual Choclate 2005 gimmick not gotten over with the crowd, he'd be on this list too.

Who would own the rights to the Dudleyz name / gimmick? Vince or Bubba / D'Von / Spike?

Add Spike Dudley and Kevin "Mordecai" Fertig to the list. Poor Spike, I always loved his work. Oh well, at least he got one big run in the top promotion.

Shit, can someone move this to the WWE board

Yeah, for lack of anything better to do with my money, I signed up for a months subscription to PWI Elite, here's the highlights of todays audio update Triple H has been off TV because creative feels he's becoming over exposed, he probobly won't be back in any significant role untill after Summerslam where he'll likely work with Cena. It's also possible that he may take time off to film another movie Summerslam is building up to be Edge vs Cena During the run through before RAW, The Coach, who is a legit athlete, ended up going through the obstacle course in like 18 seconds. Vince said not to do this, and to start bumbling around. The "wardrobe malfunction" was a work made obvious by the fact that Hebner conveniently had the towel ready to cover her up. Danny Doring and Big Guido are both working in OVW right now, Guido will likely appear as a bodyguard for Hassan and Daivari when he gets called up to the main roster.

Blaster Master is one that I keep coming back to, I am going to beat it at least one before I die. For me, the hardest game of all time was always the first TMNT on NES. IF (and that's a big IF) you actually are able to make it past Mecha Turtle, then Shredder just totally fucks you up. That game blew chunks regardless.

I've seen UHF so many fuckin times that I could probobly write the script out on paper if I had to. Stupid! You're so stupiiiiiiiiiid!

That is such a vastly under appreciated match, I would love to have that on DVD, it's one of my all time favorites.

*Double Post*

Usually the wrestlers just have to ask the agents for some compped tickets, WWE always holds back seats for that purpose, that's why it's nearly impossible to purchase Row A Floor Seats from the box office, they just aren't made available most of the time.

They replaced one of the 7 or 8 VH1 / MTV channels on my digital system to this last week, from the little bit of I've seen it's nothing but a bunch of lifetime style made for TV movies about angsty teens coping with having to tell their families that they're really girly men.

If you have any original recordings of WWF Superstars / Challange / Prime Time Wrestling on tape from the 80's / 90's you'll notice that the products advertised back then were essentially the same back then as they are today. M&M / Mars, GNC, ConAgra Foods, Acclaim Entertainment (when they still existed), and JVC have been longtime supporters of the WWE, have been running commercials for their products on WWE since the 80's, and still do today.

The card for me in hell: Undertaker beat Sid Vicious in 17 minutes with a Tombstone after Paul Bearer hits Sid with the Urn. The Outsiders and The Nasty Boys fight to a No Contest after 15 minutes. No moves are sold, and they just brawl to the back and the match is called. Kane defeats Heidenreich in 7 minutes after a fireball to the face Sabu defeats Tiger Jeet Singh in 25 minutes after completely missing a balcony dive which gets sold regardless. Mankind defeats Gene Snitsky in 12 minutes with the mandible claw. Action is completely non-existant and mostly invovles Mankind diving around Triple H wins a cruiserweight battle royal after personally eliminating every single participant, taking no offense, and last eliminating Chris Benoit
