The Dudleyz may be coming back :)
Matt wants a singles push so he dosn't want to do tag team with jeff
so this run with tag now will not last long probs.
Jericho has just been offered a bigger contract in like the last 24 hours
I want him back now!
WWE do need some new superstars that can be part of major storylines and make a big impact on their debuts or returns becuase of the suspensions
I think they are hoping to revisit the old times.
You know Rock v HHH and Jericho and the McMahon-Helmsley Era and just basically trying to relive the glory years when WWE was really at its best. HHH last week sat all the roster down and said that the company is under threat so there is going to be alot of passion now.
I really hope the dudleyz do come back and i'd like to see Kurt Angle come back aswell! That'd be so cool. I still think getting rid of Cryme Tyme and Eugene was a bad move but there's a mixed opinion there.
I just love the WWE and I really hope they can get themselves scandal-free very soon!
I dont think itll ever be as good as the attitude era again :(.
I think that they need to stop trying to hire these young stars like Cody Rhodes and stick to the more old-school stuff from the Attitude era. I think now that the whole mcmahon family are back its going to get great.
They made cody crap LOLQuote:

I still prefer kane with his mask though! They should've kept him masked for a while longer imo.
Becuase the WWE is under treat by a smaller promotion that will make them step up there game. And with Soma Joe turning down a new contract with Tna who knows where he will end up?
TNA TNA TNA!
Triple H meant under threat by the scandal. The US Government and investigating them heavily in real life with the whole Benoit thing and now with this steroids scandal.
I miss the days when we could just have something fun and entertaining without it being screwed up. :(
In the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer reports that Robert Huffman (King Booker) quit WWE when he was told that he was to be suspended for 60 days, as a punishment to the Signature Pharmacy bust. He was believed to have failed a Wellness Program test before, hence the 60 days suspension instead of 30.
While WWE is still trying to negotiate Huffman's staying with them, they're going on under the impression he's done. The two sides had been having troubles recently, with a major setback being John Laurinaitis' call to go with Florida for a developmental territory - where WWE would start from scratch - instead of going with Booker's already established PWA, which WWE had been loaning wrestlers to. After they made the call to stop that, Booker went to his friends at TNA and booked them for his shows instead, which didn't sit so well with anyone backstage, but they couldn't say much having pulled WWE talent from PWA.
Booker is pretty much set financially and has wanted out of wrestling for a while. At age 42, he's accomplished a lot, and thanks to his hip hop store doing well in Houston, and his two wrestling schools up and running, there's really no need for him to stick around.
I hope he does go! I have never been a fan really. Doesn't excite me.
Starting October 4th
Tna will have a two hour time slot. That now means that WWE will have to step up there game. Overal its great for wrestling
ECW/SD! Tapings.
No they won't..Quote:

Tna better storylines
The deal was confirmed last night at the no surender ppv.
Why watch Cena is a main event when you could see the likes of Angle or Abyss?
WWe's highest rating this year was 4.3 which is almost 4 times better than tna's (1.1), so they have nothing to worry about yet.
Victoria jobbing to Michelle is absolutely disgraceful. I couldn't care less for the rest of the results.Quote:

lmao, hornswoggle McMahons son :]
That has to be the most STUPID and IRRITATING result of any storyline ever. All that bloomin' build up for that. What an outrage.Quote:

Not like theyre missing much..

Huge let down
waste of a storyline putting hornswoggle as vinces son
Terrible, terrible. If Kennedy was the son as planned the build would've been worth it.
Exactly!Quote:

Also , for the new game what if Hornswoggle is still champ? Does that mean that they'd have to put him in the game?!
He'd have like noone to fight!
They could do that, say Swoggle tampered with the DNA or somethingQuote:

WWE news and notes
According to one source, Vince has scheduled a Board of Directors meeting to specifically address which international territories they should open up and get the green light to start as soon as possible. It is believed that Vince feels with everything that is going down involving Congress and a potential wrongful death lawsuit, wrestling may be in for a rough haul domestically, and thus it is important to solidify operations elsewhere.
The feeling is that while WWE may be at its lowest point in history as it regards perception in the United States, they'll continue to be embraced overseas. It is believed the four territories they are looking at most strongly are UK (wheels are already very much in motion), the UK, Asia and Mexico.
Regarding the illegitimate son deal, I would be stunned if this wasn't just a way to prolong the storyline until Kennedy returns from suspension. The whole deal with Kennedy may have been axed, but my feeling from watching Raw is that it has not. I base this mostly on the original plans, which would have seen Kennedy and Vince team up to try to wrest control of the company from the rest of the family, and Hunter coming out as the husband of Steph and siding with her, Linda and Shane.
It makes no sense to continue the Hunter/Steph deal like they subtly did on Raw if that's not the direction they're going. I think that there is a good three-to-four weeks of fun stuff you can do with Hornswaggle as the child, and then by the time it runs its course Kennedy will be back and they can move forward as scheduled. I know that Vince was irate that word of future plans leaked out, and he and Stephanie both gave stern lectures to the writing crew about it. They were so paranoid that they didn't tell anyone who the son was going to be on Raw and flew in all the wrestlers from all the brands to make sure nobody could rule anyone out by process of elimination. Kennedy was at the show backstage for this reason. They're also being very tight-lipped about where this goes from here, which also suggests that Hornswaggle as the child isn't the end of this whole thing.
Rosie was at OVW training this week. The feeling is he'll be offered a deal.
Ric Flair is denying that he quit WWE. Well, we did merely report that he gave notice. There are definitely issues between the two sides, but, as noted last week, I do expect him to return at some point. He was asked about it on a radio show this week and said, "That is not true. That is not true. I don't know how that got started. What would the WWE do without me? I'm the only guy to go to work every day and have for 34 1/2 years".
King Booker is likely done for now. He was the 60 day suspension and was outraged. He was ****** because he'd already been suspended once (I believe around the time where he and Sharmell had the supposed break-up on Smackdown and he vanished) and then got the 60-day suspension just because his name showed up on the Signature list. He was very close to signing a new long-term contract but was constantly holding out. We mentioned many of his demands in the newsletter several weeks back, including a desire to sit in on production meetings during his feud with Hunter to make sure that he wasn't buried. He had no contract going into SummerSlam and was constantly telling the office that he would sign it as soon as his attorney finished looking it over for the final time.
It is believed that he was dragging it out so that he could see how he was taken care of in the SummerSlam match. He was also upset that Orton had showed up on the list, but because he'd served his time or come clean or whatever the deal was, he wasn't hit with a 60-day. As noted many times, Booker had been wanting to get out of the business for some time, often citing that he was going to retire at 40. He has a hip-hop store in Houston and his wrestling school/promotion, and he saved enough money to not have to worry about the bullcrap.
He'd made it clear that if he'd been drafted to ECW earlier this year, he'd have quit right then and there. Basically, he's another example of a guy who doesn't need the business and got out because he wasn't happy with how things were going down. He'd also stated many times that he didn't want to be like the other guys who died on the road in some hotel.
Shawn and HHH were at Ohio Valley last week for a closed door meeting with talent. I believe they were there largely for a pep talk meeting and training session. Shawn can't go all out yet, but they were both there answering questions and giving advice. The belief within the company is that when Vince McMahon is no longer in charge, Steph will run the corporate end, Shane will run global media and licensing, and Hunter and Shawn will be in charge of developmental.
Regarding testing in developmental, while discussions are ongoing about how to incorporate it into the current Wellness policy, the fact is that there has always been some form of testing. Guys were tested when they first came in and then tested randomly from that point forward. One source said the only person he'd ever heard of failing was Ryan Reeves, and that the loopholes were very well known. In fact, this source claimed that he was specifically told by a member of WWE management that is no longer with the company that the way around the test was to get a prescription for whatever you were taking.
He noted that another wrestler was always bragging about how he got a prescription and was buying all of his stuff online. As it turns out, this guy ended up on the Signature list. Oops. This wrestler used to brag about how he'd go home, get drunk, and then go out in the snow and inject himself so that his parents wouldn't see it. Apparently, this fell under the category of therapeutic usage under a physician's care.
London & Kendrick beat Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch in Cape Town, South Africa to win the WWE Tag Team Titles, then lost them back a few days later. This was mentioned on WWE.com and Raw.
We're told that Matt Sydal has signed his WWE developmental contract and will be heading to OVW.
Hope that happens, that would be really worth it.Quote:
