Bruiser Chong Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 They're talking to Bill Apter on Fox News right now and for some reason, they're showing clips of Luger and Liz.
StrapFinlay Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 Why do they keep showing footage of Luger? One wrestler who kills their partner is the same as any other to the mainstream news...
2GOLD Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 They're talking to Bill Apter on Fox News right now and for some reason, they're showing clips of Luger and Liz. It's apparent they think Liz IS Nancy
Perfxion Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 They were talking about steroid use and who better than one of the more popular steroid freaks of the last 20 years.
LaParkaMarka Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 Last night when I turned on CNN, they were showing clips of Richard Lugar, the Republican Senator from Indiana. Apparently he was criticizing Bush or something. Maybe they got Lugar/Luger confused.
2GOLD Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 They were talking about steroid use and who better than one of the more popular steroid freaks of the last 20 years. Well unless George "The Animal" Steele was into steroid abuse as well, I'm not sure what the hell they were doing since they showed him as well. I'm still going with my guess that they believed Liz was Nancy.

Youth N Asia Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 Chris Benoit, the newest member of the Netherworld Order
JimmyHendricks Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 For those of you who keep debating the removal/re-appearing of Benoit on WWE.com and ShopZone, I think it's just the webmasters tweaking the site to remove all references of him. Things will probably re-appear and disappear until they get it right. I just saw an ad on ShopZone for the Vince "I Did It Shirt", then clicked on it and it was no longer valid. I believe the WWE will distance themselves from Benoit as quickly as possible. I mean, there's no way they can right now, but the only mention of him is via the frontpage of WWE.com. I'm sure that's only there for the curious who are wondering what is going on. Both the RAW and ECW TV pages make references to Vengeance. I think that the removal of Benoit's name from DVD descriptions is just so they don't advertise/profit from his name. I'm sure the DVD's themselves will still have everything involving him intact, but they just don't want to advertise it. They could go all they way and delete him entirely from all DVD's he was on (just removing the matches entirely), but that would be a hassle, with him being in the WM XX main event, the first MITB match, and Royal Rumbles, among others. So, I don't think they'll blur out his entire body or anything, just not advertise him as part of the purchase. I'm sure future compilation DVD's of Best of's (like the Ladder/Cage/WWE Title) won't have any of his matches, either.
k thx Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 Chris Benoit, the newest member of the Netherworld Order Oh, Shannon.
Downhome Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 In case you can't get to a TV, you can watch the 3PM press conference here: http://media.myfoxatlanta.com/live/index.html
Youth N Asia Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 I'll likely hang out here with yous guys and have the press conference playing in the background
Downhome Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 CNN is talking about fans going to the net and forums to vent about all of this, the Vince storyline, a list of all of the wrestlers who have died, and other stuff like that.

Ultra Violence Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 BBC now has an article up since I emailed them suggesting they cover developments. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/6242806.stm
Youth N Asia Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 Canada loves their wrestlers. I wonder how the news is covering it there
Pegasus Kid Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 AP confirms he strangled Nancy and smothered Daniel. I can't believe I'm this disgusted with a man I've respected for so many years.
Vern Gagne Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 CNN is talking about fans going to the net and forums to vent about all of this, the Vince storyline, a list of all of the wrestlers who have died, and other stuff like that. Hey mom! No, Hulk Hogan does not wrestle anymore.
dubq Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 Canada loves their wrestlers. I wonder how the news is covering it there It's pretty buried on TSN.ca. But http://www.citynews.ca/ has it as the top story of their sport section. Ironically enough, there's a double murder suicide in the city here as well that's top news on the site.
Youth N Asia Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 If anyone had a wife and children worth killing it was Hulk Hogan
Guest Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 AP confirms he strangled Nancy and smothered Daniel. I can't believe I'm this disgusted with a man I've respected for so many years. What a sick bastard.
art_vandelay Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 Canada loves their wrestlers. I wonder how the news is covering it there Quite the same as everywhere else... just with "Canadian wrestler" off the top... Edmonton has been a bit unique... It seemed like Benoit was never a mainstream Canadian name outside of Alberta.
Youth N Asia Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 press conference should be any minute now
USC Wuz Robbed! Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 So what were the instruments of death? A cord and pillow?
Vern Gagne Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 Do they know if he strangled her from behind, or was it from the front?
