Boxer 0 Report post Posted June 12, 2008 The more I think about it, I feel that the million dollar giveaway thing on Raw is just a decoy. Decoy for what you ask? It's getting ever closer to the 1 year anniversary of something that happened last year. Maybe all this money talk will try to make everyone forget what happened last year?

Thanks for the Fish 0 Report post Posted June 12, 2008 Also it seems like Elijah is calling himself "The Black Pope". Basically it was reported that he worked a dark match this week and had a different look and judging by this new blog of his - http://www.wwe.com/shows/ecw/superstars/el...xperience060908 - he might be going that rumored route. I wonder if he'll get his own Deacon Batista... He's been calling himself that forever. But did he look like this - (pics stolen from http://www.idiotsrunningawebsite.net/ ) Hell, he's more like the Black Gangrel... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for the Fish 0 Report post Posted June 13, 2008 Maybe he could be the street preacher type of character - it would definitely be different and give him something to run with other than the played out cocky, over-confident black man character. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No. That is Spirit Squad member Mitch (Nick Mitchell). Mikey was the smallest of the bunch and I believe begged into the Spirit Squad when Elijah Burke asked to be excluded.

Thanks for the Fish 0 Report post Posted June 13, 2008 Speak of the devil, developmental diva Victoria Crawford is debuting on SD! tonight. She is introduced in a backstage skit as Alicia Fox, Vicki and Edges wedding planner. Now it could be a one and done spot (like Melina used as a Halloween episode extra - or was it Thanksgiving), but there was the Kristal/Edge storyline that Hayes wanted to go with that Kristal objected to that led to her firing - could Victoria/Alicia be getting that spot? There is bad news though as Victoria/Alicia has an outie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Downhome 0 Report post Posted June 13, 2008 So, how 'bout that Carlito? WWE STAR TAKES PUBLIC AIM AT TRIPLE H AND HIS MARRIAGE TO STEPHANIE MCMAHON AT PRESS CONFERENCE TODAY by Mike Johnson @ 6:08 PM on 6/13/2008 During a press conference today in Santiago, Chile, promoting a 7/2 Raw house show, Carlito took aim at Triple H's place in World Wrestling Entertainment, specifically his marriage to Stephanie McMahon-Levesque. When asked about their marriage, Carlito commented, "I may get in trouble, but that's why I'm here. My opinion is that it was a smart move by [HHH]. I think that's why he's champion now and has been champion in the past, it's easier to him. We, the real wrestlers, don't depend on people in the business. We don't have that benefit. We have to deliver the maximum in the ring. Others are given championships in a plate of gold or platinum, I'm happy for him." Carlito, who claimed he had been discriminated against in WWE because he was Latin (but did not specify any instance), saying his heritage makes it harder for him, but he doesn't regret being Latino. He also commented that he never sees Triple H going overseas to promote the company, stating, "I don't see him coming to Chile or Paraguay, places like that. He's always comfortable." As mentioned yesterday on PWInsider.com, Carlito is again unhappy with his WWE push and status. In a sign that he wasn't just playing a heel role during the conference, Carlito put over babyface John Cena's work ethic and criticized wrestling fans for not supporting him. The McMahon-Levesque marriage has always been pretty much considered "out of bounds" for anyone to discuss publicly for the obvious political reasons. Ken Kennedy also took part in the press conference, remaining in character before the local media. Announced for the Santiago event was WWE champ Triple H vs. John Cena, WWE Intercontinental champ Chris Jericho vs. JBL, Shawn Michaels & Jeff Hardy vs. Umaga & Snitsky and Ken Kennedy vs. Carlito.
