One Useless Wrestler for Another

NEWS/RUMOR: |WWE WO| Super Crazy quit WWE at the recent Smackdown tapings. He abruptly told management that he quits because WWE has not pushed him after they promised they would. Crazy will not be under the 90-day no compete clause and will not go to TNA either. It’s expected he’ll go to Mexico to continue wrestling.

Low Ki got a WWE tryout and both Rey Mysterio & MVP are pushing for the company to sign him. Mysterio even went as far to suggest a future storyline between the two where Low Ki would be a fake Mysterio and feud with him on RAW.

Chuck Palumbo’s contract is about to expire and it appears WWE will not re-sign him.

November 8th, 2008: Palumbo Fired


Super Crazy is the man, but he’s not the man in WWE. He was the man in ECW, but not in WWE. I guess there are still wrestlers who put their passion for the business ahead of money.

I don’t get why so many people like Low Ki. All of his matches in TNA were pretty solid, but is he a breakout star? I don’t think he is. He has a unique style of wrestling but I don’t see anything special about him. But if Mysterio believes in him then there must be something about him. I just don’t see it. Anyway, it looks like we’ll be seeing him in WWE because having Mysterio back you is a pretty big thing.

RAW (11.03.08)

NEWS: |WWE| Last night was RAW’s 800th episode. Here’s a quick recap of the three hour show…

The Hardy Boys beat MVP & Brian Kendrick.

William Regal beat Cryme Tyme, Jamie Noble, Snitsky and Priceless in a Battle Royal to earn an IC Title shot.

Shane & Stephanie McMahon fired Mike Adamle as GM of RAW.

Kozlov beat beat Charlie Haas

DX beat Miz & Morrison

Beth Phoenix, Layla, Kati Lea Burchill, Jillian, Maryse, Natalya, Victoria & Lena Yada beat Mae Young, Divas Champion Michelle McCool, Mickie James, Kelly Kelly, Candice Michelle, Eve, Brie Bella & Tiffany with Phoenix pinning Mae.

CM Punk beat Randy Orton by DQ when Priceless interferred.

Undertaker beat JBL by DQ when JBL walked out of the match. However HBK threw JBL back in and Taker delivered the Tombstone.

Kane & Mark Henry beat Rey Mysterio & Kofi Kingston. After the match, The Great Khali came to the aid of Kingston & Mysterio.

Chris Jericho beat Batista in a Steel Cage to become the new World Heavyweight Champion.

November 6th, 2008: Adamle Done with WWE


I was expecting RAW to be a “fun” show where the matches didn’t really matter, but I think we got a good balance between fun and actual storylines. The wrestling was good and a lot of big things happened: Adamle is out, a DX appearance and the biggest of all, Jericho regains the title.

It doesn’t make much sense for Batista to win and then lose the title, but I don’t care these days because it keeps things interesting. If we have to sacrifice some logic for swerves & new ideas then so be it.

With a three hour show, WWE should have had two or three Women’s matches. At least they used all the women, but I think they should have broken it up.

I wasn’t expecting much and I still thought it was a good show. However I do not want to see Jericho vs Cena as SummerSlam because I have a bad feeling that Cena will win. Cena becoming champion again is too soon.

Smackdown (10.31.08)

NEWS: |WWE| Last night was Friday Night Smackdown. Here’s a quick recap of the show…

Jimmy Wang Yang beat Brian Kendrick by DQ when Kendrick’s associate pulled him out of the match

Matt Hardy, Jeff Hardy & Rey Mysterio beat Kane, Mark Henry & MVP with Jeff getting the pin on MVP with the Swanton Bomb

Michelle McCool, Maria & Brie Bella beat Maryse, Natalya & Victoria with Maria pinning Victoria via a crossbody

Miz & Morrison beat Primo & Carlito in a non-title match

Kozlov wanted a title shot at HHH’s title, but GM Guerrero said he’ll get his title shot if he beats Undertaker next week

Undertaker beat Chavo Guerrero in a Casket Match despite interference from Big Show

Grounded

RUMOR: |WZ| Bill Behrens is reporting that Evan Bourne suffered torn ligaments in in his ankle last night on ECW. It looks like he’ll be out for 4 months, but that’s an estimate.


That sucks for all the ECW & Bourne fans. But ECW should respond like ECW should and that means bringing in a fresh face or pushing someone to fill in the void. Bourne will be back in no time anyway, but ECW will suffer because of this. I would suggest pushing Ricky Ortiz but I cannot stand the guy.

ECW (10.28.08)

NEWS: |WWE| These are the quick results of last night’s ECW…

Miz & Morrison hosted The Dirt Sheet and mocked DX. Then they beat up a fake HHH & fake HBK.

Mark Henry, Chavo Guerrero & Bam Neely beat Matt Hardy, Evan Bourne & Finlay. Chavo got the win for his team by Frog Splashing Hardy after a huge brawl broke out.

Jack Swagger beat Tommy Dreamer with the gutwrench powerbomb.

NEWS/RUMOR: |WWE WO| Vince McMahon is reportedly upset with the RAW announce team. He is specifically mad at Michael Cole and is reportedly yelling at him a lot more through the headset.

This Friday’s Smackdown will feature a Casket Match between Undertaker and an unknown opponent.

Ric Flair is under the impression that his son, Reid Flair, will be in WWE within a year. However Reid is said to be immature and has had a number of “behavioral issues” which is keeping him back.


Reid Flair will still be called up to WWE TV despite his “issues.” I mean look at Randy Orton, he throws a baby fit every 6 months and WWE continues to push him.

A Casket Match on TV is pretty cool since we haven’t seen one in a while. But since it’s TV I don’t think we’ll get a PPV quality match. But still cool.

RAW (10.27.08)

NEWS: |WWE| Here are your quick results for last night’s RAW. For a more detailed report, click the source to read WWE’s official report…

CM Punk & Kofi Kingston beat Priceless to become the new Tag Champions

Charlie Haas (dressed as Beth Phoenix) vs Santino ended in a No Contest when Goldust, Honky Tonk Man & Roddy Piper stormed the ring and attacked Santino

Mickie James, Kelly Kelly & Candice Michelle beat Layla, Katie Lea & Jillian Hall

Rey Mysterio beat Evan Bourne, but afterwards Mark Henry & Kane attacked both men

Miz & Morrison announced that they will face DX next week in honor of the 800th episode of RAW

Cyber Sunday

NEWS: |WWE| WWE presented Cyber Sunday last night. Here are the results of the fan-driven PPV…

HHH beat Jeff Hardy

Undertaker beat Big Show in a Last Man Standing Match

Batista beat Chris Jericho to become the new World Heavyweight Champion with Stone Cold as special guest ref

Rey Mysterio beat Kane in a No Holds Barred Match

Shelton Benjamin beat R-Truth to retain the United States Title

Matt Hardy beat Evan Bourne to retain the ECW Title

Honky Tonk Man beat Santino by DQ

The Miz & Morrison beat beat Cryme Tyme


The fans picked Honky Tonk Man!? This proves that Vince can manipulate the fans to a certain extent.

Why would any fan pay to see the Honky Tonk Man wrestle? I mean does that sound like a good match to anyone? I’m bewildered.

I’m also surprised that Batista won the title. But it makes me happy because the title is changing hands quickly which is a lot better than having 6 or 8 month long title reigns. I thank WWE for that because wrestling needs excitement.
