Steve mcMicheals works on a sports radio show in Chicago, but was banned from getting a press pass by the WWE. Huh? Did I miss something? What problems does the WWE have with Mongo?

Guest wildpegasus Report post Posted April 15, 2006 Best quote ever!! read in a recent fitness magazine interview with Randy Orton that Benoit doesn't even use a cup for protein shakes, he puts the powder in his mouth dry, then puts water in his mouth and shakes his head around. He does this because he doesn't like traveling with a stinky cup. Benoit is hardcore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest J0bber Report post Posted April 15, 2006 I don't know if you can take this as fact, but according to his Wikipedia profile, Rene Dupree has been arrested: Rene Dupree Profile On April 13th, 2005, dupree was pulled over for a busted headlight, but the cop thought he was acting suspicious, so he searches the car. During the search, a bag of marajuana was found. Rene did one night in the county jail and posted bond the next day. This will eventually lead to Dupree's release from his WWE Contract. This could be a joke because I haven't heard it on any other wrestling website. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Team Angle Pusher 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2006 That would kind of suck because Dupree is still very young and he's a average to good wrestler. He has charisma and he knows how to play a crowd. He just needs the chance to shine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Si82 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2006 I was just reading the Figure Four Weekly flashback at the Observer site and was wondering did New Jack ever have any actual dealings or meeting with WWE in earyl 2005? I remember him claiming to have been signed and that the plan was to reveal him as the guy who stabbed John Cena. However, was there any truth to it at all?

Si82 0 Report post Posted April 17, 2006 Am I the only one who would prefere a Triple H/Edge feud to the John Cena/Triple H/Edge one that is currently going on? I mean, Cena just seems like a third wheel in the whole thing and that he's only there because he has the title. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spaceman Spiff 0 Report post Posted April 17, 2006 Nah, the 3-way feud is more entertaining, IMO. Every night gets a different reaction because the crowd doesn't know who to back, making for a fun atmosphere. And it's not really fair to call Cena a 3rd wheel, because he's the guy supplying the heat. Take away Cena, and whom is HHH going to leech heat off of? HHH/Edge would be pretty boring, and I really couldn't see the feud sustaining heat for any real length of time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mean, Cena just seems like a third wheel in the whole thing and that he's only there because he has the title. To me, Edge has been the third wheel. They have both made him look really stupid on the mic and sorry, but I'm not even seeing where Edge is that great of a worker or a heel. Edge is just out there to be the Cena/HHH joke punching bag and his desperate stutter to get a funny in is getting pathetic to watch. Edge should have to beat someone important to get back into the main event scene. Let me see, he beat Mick Foley so the next logical step up is Victoria. Then he can face someone really skilled, like Goldust. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Obviously, its because his brother is one of the heads of talent relations. Fuck you Johnny Ace! Oh yeah, fuck you too, Road Warrior! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Obviously, its because his brother is one of the heads of talent relations. Fuck you Johnny Ace! Oh yeah, fuck you too, Road Warrior! Amen. I attended GAB 2k5 (unfourt.) and we were all just expecting new "LOD" to job there. After winning relatively fast, we comforted ourselves in the fact that since we had tickets to the Smackdown! taping that Tuesday as well, that there's no way we'd have to see Animal wrestle again because he would be too winded. Unfourtunatley, we were wrong again; and had to see him wrestle; albit. in a very short squash match. Since then, Animal has been the most hated wrestler of mine, and the Johnny Ace's brother shit just makes it worse. I dread that they push him as a threat in the US division eventually, over Finlay or JBL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
