Thanks for the Fish

Mickie is horrid in skits.

Definitely got the vibe that Cody is going to turn on Bob and side with Dibiase Jr in their eventual match-up.

I agree - everybody hates nepotism unless they are the ones directly benefiting from it. I think it would be a solid way to debut Ted Jr. I also agree that DH Smith and TJ Wilson(who is in FCW) should definitely debut as the Canadian Bulldogs Smith proved he wasn't ready for prime time as a singles wrestler, but there is money to be made as a tag team. Canadian Bulldogs vs Spanky/London would be money, as would a feud with Miz and Morrison. Afa Jr could have real problems in the lockerroom given he was the developmental caught trying to use the Whizzinator fake penis to beat a drug test. As a result there was the new testing procedures implemented that has the wrestlers having to be completely naked from the chest to the knees and the tester stands and watches them urinate into the cup - no privacy at all. Many of the wrestlers were less than pleased with this new testing procedure.

His license plate was an acronym for something about running from cops...

According to one of the in-the-know sites the wwe is planning on a new heel stable made up of youngsters with a veteran manager - the plan could include a bunch of second generation wrestlers - Teddy Dibiase Jr, DH Smith, Cody Rhodes, Afa Jr, were the names mentioned, as well as Carlity possibly being the mouthpiece if a vet manager wasn't used. It wouldn't have to be only legacy wrestlers, as CM Punk and Chris Harris was mentioned as well. Of course they'd probably be jobbed out to HHH like the Spirit Squad was. Something like this would probably work better on SD! where the youngster heels could work off of Undertaker and Batista. Of course it would make Edge's faction look weak, though it's pretty much played out these days.

Sounds like the book Jason Sensation was talking about writing, though of his own horror stories. http://www.lordsofpain.net/news/2007_/arti.../1188911450.php

Sounds like there is some old school wrestling carny talk in there.

Probably to hide her "non-Diva" body...

Best part of the new Dirt Sheet was Miz paying homage to Sgt. Moses Hightower...

Interesting point. They'll probably be traded to SD! for Mark Henry. And then Henry can join Boogeyman, Big Daddy V, Benjamin, Burke, Kofi and Armando Estrada away from the soon to be returning Michael Hayes.

MVP is coming off quite the push/run with the US title so a little job duty is probably to be expected. He'll probably land on Raw should there be a draft as well, so many SD is getting any rub he has to give. I HATE the firing stipulation because it gives away the match - the TLC match was enough of a sell for just about anybody. They should have just booked it as the last meeting between UT and Edge meaning no return match for the loser.

(yeah I meant when he got back from the suspension, not that it would get over-turned) Also I don't think Regal was ever going to get the title put on him, so it's not as much an an issue as it is with Hardy because Jeff could have carried the title at one point and with two strikes on him, you can't put the title on him and risk having to fire your champion (even if the wwe could have him work one last show before the firing to drop the title).

If it is an innocent mistake of taking the wrong supplements, I think HHH will make sure it's not really held against him. He seemed really excited in interviews about getting back in the ring and was pestering McMahon for awhile about doing so. I am hoping it was an innocent mistake of trying to get in better shape and not the bumps of the ring causing need for pain killers or long days on the road leading to recreational drugs.

I get the feeling that Hayes will never be brought back. Wwe is just opening themselves up to a huge lawsuit now and tons of bad publicity if there is another incident after he gets re-hired.

Just fire him. He's getting the push of his career and he can't stay clean. I hope it was at least PED's and he was trying to get in better shape rather than hitting recreational drugs...

It's so obvious that both Orton/HHH and Edge/UT are buying time until the draft, especially the latter. I fully expect Edge, MVP and Punk to head to Raw and Orton, Jericho and Umaga to head to SD!

Hardy is such garbage.

...The double backbreaker by Beth on Melina and Mickie. It was a solid match overall - Thank TNA's pushing if their women for that.

Wow - that was a solid spot...

I'd rather just have a Melina vs Beth singles match - Mickie is a botch fest

Vince McMahon thinks tag wrestling is a waste of money because you have to pay both wrestlers/teams to fill a time slot that a solo match could be filling. With TNA supposedly going to focus on tag wrestling again, maybe Vince will change his tune - I mean the recent re-push of the womens division has to be because of the rating the TNA women pull on a regular basis. I think the idea that you can reinvent a wrestler when splitting them is a positive in most instances. I mean would HBK be where he is today without first cutting his teeth as a Rocker and then being paired with a manager like Sherri? However both tag teams and managers are looked down upon.

FCW has sorta updated their superstar section. Looks like a lot of generic muscled up pretty boys to me.

WWE needs to give it's tag-teams "team names". I understand that they believe all teams are made to eventually be broken up and that team names kill the individuality of the wrestlers and thus the wwe would then have to re-introduce/establish a new singles identity but there is certain marketability with team names. Today you have Cade and Murdoch, London and Kendrick, Yang and Moore, Miz and Morrison (with seperate entrances), Ryder and Hawkins, Rhodes and Holly, Jesse and Festus, Deuce and Domino, Santino and Carlito - the only team names you have are Cryme Tyme and The Highlanders. What was wrong with Killer Bees, Hart Foundation, British Bulldogs, Road Warriors, Strike Force, Hardy Boyz, Dudley Boyz, APA, New Age Outlaws, Los Guerreros, Worlds Greatest Tag Team, MNM etc? FCW has the Canadian Bulldogs, The Empire, The Puerto Rican Nightmares. Should they ever get the call up as a team will they become "DH Smith and TJ Wilson", "Stu Saunders and Drew Galloway", and "Eric Perez and Eddie Colon" respectively?

Dirt sheets have her being eventually being grouped with Jimmy Wang Yang and Shannon Moore. Chavo and Bam Neely quit Edge's faction? Chavo can't hold any interest on his own. Bam Neely doesn't really fit well with Chavo either.

Thank TNA for the increased emphasis/exposure of the fightin' Divas.
