THE WRESTLING THREAD: HHH KEEPS DOING HHH THINGS.....

[Rollie_Fingaz]

and i bet she wont be the only one,they probably will start adding more females to the group,like,say,Daffney(since she was in the audience at the Knockouts PPV),as well as maybe even Mickie James and Madison Rayne if she decides to come back after having the kid..

however if they end up having Dixie Carter herself join up

Daffney would make sense because she got fucked over by TNA.

Daffney would make sense because she got fucked over by TNA.

I don't think she can wrestle anymore so that might be why they wouldn't go that way.

There have been discussions about turning Kofi Kingston heel with the idea that he's talented but has been booked in a way where they will never be able to get him over as a babyface without a heel turn and push first.

Just like they can't do face turns, they would screw up a Kofi heel turn. His whole style is high spot based not bump based like a Shawn Michaels. If they want him to get over, stop jobbing him out and put him in a feud with Punk instead wrestling Dolph and Swagger over and over.


-

A new change in WWE developmental is to give the talents bullet points instead of scripts and teaching them to do promos like they used to be done.

Thank God. Some guys will shine and some won't but that used to be how they separated the top guys from the rest. This would probably help a Kofi more than a pointless turn.

CHYNA CHANGES CAREERS, LEAVES THE PORN INDUSTRY FOR....
by Dave Scherer @ 1:04 PM on 3/22/2013


Alivingwonder.com, a website devoted to Chyna, sent us the following.

Chyna's new Vivid video, "She Hulk XXX" is available online today at Vivid.com and in stores April 3,2013.

"She Hulk XXX" will be Chyna's last film with Vivid as she has decided to move out to Japan and is teaching English to Japanese students. She has made a series of web videos teaching English

Can someone explain to me why the crazy bitch didn't do this first? We already know she's fluent in Spanish and now Japanese? And she chose porn? Glad she got her mind right.
Now if she can go behave for a solid year, somebody might give her a wrestling job or at least she might, might, get in the WWE HoF.

i think it was obvious that chyna was doing pornos while either high as fuck or drunk,as evidenced by how she sometimes was slurring her speech in interviews or found passed out at AEE and AVN conventions

Fucked up story and proof that even the most useless moves in wrestling are dangerous.

TMZ has picked up the story regarding Sean "X-Pac" Waltman's surgery that we ran on Sunday. Waltman suffered a torn anus while performing a Bronco Buster during the four-way main event of the Heavy on Wrestling show on Saturday when he overshot the move and landed on an exposed portion of the turnbuckle. You can read their story at TMZ.com.

Powell's POV: Waltman underwent surgery at the Hennepin County Medical Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota on Sunday morning. He was released from the hospital on Monday. I spoke with Waltman a short time ago and he was in good spirits, though he said there is a chance he will need another surgery. This is actually the second time he has torn his anus during a match. You can check out my full report on the Heavy on Wrestling event, which featured Jerry Lynn's final match and post-match speech, on the main page.

Like I said earlier in this thread because Cena going over this time he wasn't going to be the jolly good fellow who fucked up the heat on the first match. He all intense and shit now cause he gonna win. If he doesn't do it the Austin million chair shot way after his speech tonight does it make the Rock look weak??

 

[sturmars]

Wrestling Heads I just wanna know this.. Will STONE COLD ever show his face again?! I dont care if he wrestles I just wanna hear him say "WHAT" one more time and get the crowd chanting that shit.. That shit is EPIC! WWE needs that dude, the Rock is exposing the phonyness of wrestling with his mere presence.. BRING BACK STONE COLD!

 

[dirtyd]

The opening/closing segments saved this ridiculously long show, Jericho & Fandango was a really good segment and shows how a little attention to detail can go a long way. Rock & Cena killed it but i was a little nervous when he started with that whole "Mcnabb" promo I when Rock called Cena out on his "because i have to" answer and he kept his catchphrases down to a minimum. HHH had an okay promo but that shot to Barrett was completely unnecessary.

Yeah, he will, when he wants to. He's got a lot going on now and he's picky about when he comes back and he's not going to fly in to do one of those "walking down the hallway segments" like they do Bret and Mick Foley.

If he doesn't do it the Austin million chair shot way after his speech tonight does it make the Rock look weak??

If Rock worked more often, that might be an issue but just working a two or three matches a year, doing a clean job to Cena when everyone expects him to won't hurt him at all. But I don't see what it does for Cena, who they, as usual, booked so strong most of the past year, this isn't that big of a win.

Ric Flair was originally booked for three weeks of Raws, starting with last week's Pittsburgh, tonight in Philly and next week's in Washington, DC. Not sure why he didn't appear last week but it may have been due to creative plans changing. As noted, he was there this week and was pulled from the show

Ric Flair has returned to Charlotte, NC and is expected to follow up with a doctor today after being sent home from yesterday's Raw taping in Philadelphia.
Flair remained in Philly after being looked at by the local hospital and was actually at the WWE TV hotel bar drinking last night with the wrestlers following the taping. He did not return to Raw after being sent to the hospital.

Booker T filled in for Flair last night.

Damn Naitch Sit down.

The return of Petey Williams and Scorpio Sky next week for TNA. I wasn't a fan of the new X-Division rules but if it means they're going to be bringing in guys to work at least one match, it might be okay.

Adam Pearce in Gutcheck? Impressive. He's like Christian York, he can be thrown right onto the roster.

WWE has announced that Sean "Diddy" Combs will perform at WrestleMania 29 at MetLife Stadium. "WrestleMania is one of the biggest spectacles in the world and I’m looking forward to performing in front of millions on April 7,” Combs said. "I’ve always been a fan of WWE and I’m excited to support these two important causes, Superstars for Sandy Relief and the Be a STAR anti-bullying initiative." Read the official announcement at Corporate.WWE.com.

Makes sense since they're going for the whole NY/NJ vibe.

Richard Reid Fliehr, who wrestled as Reid Flair, is dead at age 24, according to Mike Johnson of PWInsider.com. He was the youngest son of pro wrestling legend Ric Flair. The cause of death has not been revealed.

Reid Flair, son of WWE star Ric Flair, dies at 25


Reid Flair, the 25-year-old son of WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair, died Friday, wrestlingobserver.com is reporting. Details surrounding his death are unknown at this time.
Flair's agent, Melinda Morris Zanoni, released the following statement: "We are heartbroken to confirm that Ric's son, Reid, has passed away today March 29, 2013 in Charlotte, NC. The investigation into the cause of death is ongoing. Reid was an incredible son, brother, friend, and professional wrestler. No words can describe the grief that Ric and his family are experiencing and they do request privacy during this devastating time."
According to wcnc.com, Charlotte-Mecklenburg police received a call around 10:30 a.m. ET that a man was unresponsive in a hotel room. Police identified the man as Reid Flair. Foul play is not suspected at this time.
Reid Flair had been wrestling in Japan occasionally for the last year to improve his skills in the ring. He was in the U.S. and scheduled to tour with his father this weekend.
He was expected to be signed by WWE at some point in the future, as his father has recently rejoined the company.
Reaction by the pro wrestling community on Twitter was immediate.

Roddy Piper:

My heart is with Ric and Reid Flair today! Reid was my son too!

Eric Bischoff:

Heavy heart. Our thoughts, prayers, and sympathy to Ric Flair and family at the passing of Reid Flair. Such a sad day.

Kurt Angle:

To Ric flair and His family, I'm So Sorry for the Loss of Reid, Ric's Son. You Were family to Me. GOD Bless You Ric! I Love U

REID FLAIR PASSES AWAY (UPDATED)
by Mike Johnson @ 12:55 PM on 3/29/2013

Reid Flair, the youngest son of WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair, has passed away, PWInsider.com has sadly confirmed. He was only 25 years old.
Reid was found this morning in Charlotte, North Carolina. He had just returned from working for All Japan.

Reid was seen in the latter days of WCW, where both he and his father had heads shaved as part of an angle where Ric feuded with Vince Russo. Reid later began training as a pro wrestler under Bobby Eaton and George South, but personal issues, including a heroin arrest, sidetracked what was expected to be instant stardom for Reid, who had an excellent amateur pedigree.

At one point, he was slated to debut with Ring of Honor when the promotion was owned by Cary Silkin, but the arrest caused ROH to back off on those plans. That led to the beginning of the end of their relationship with Ric Flair.

Since then, there had been talk of Reid going to WWE developmental and the company had taken a look at him, but didn't sign him to a contract. He had been working in All Japan and was slated to make appearances with Ric this weekend in Maryland.

Our deepest condolences to the Flair family during what can only be described as a tragic, sad day.

Note: The original version of this article listed Flair as 24 years old. That was a typo and has been corrected

CHARLIE HAAS ANNOUNCES RETIREMENT
by Mike Johnson @ 1:52 AM on 3/31/2013

Former WWE star Charlie Haas announced he was officially retired tonight in Asheville, NC following what appeared to have been his farewell match for Ring of Honor.
Haas cut a promo before the match putting over the ROH roster before losing to Jeff Louis Neal, an independent wrestler based out of the Carolinas.

On his Twitter account, Haas wrote, "Officially retired. No match against @Sheltyb803 nxt week NYC. Time to be a full time dad and husband. I've turned my spandex in for scrubs. Thanks to all the fans throughout the years. I love you all. Stay safe and God bless. WGTT will always be a top Tag Team, forever."

 

[dirtyd]

Haas sounded like he was drunk/high and let his feelings get the best of him, my friend here in Dallas used to make his gear for him and said he was always cool.

After hearing Cena go on about how he had Rock beat, it sounds like they are turning him. I just don't see him winning clean? What do ya'll think?

I think the only thing worse than Cena as a face would be Cena as a heel, especially with the current creative team.

Re-watching the promo this past Monday and it did have that pre Wrestlemania X7 promo vibe to it, SCSA kept saying he needed to beat Rock & that's when he turned and joined Vince.

As much as I like the rock I still scratch my head at why Austin was so hell bent on beating him (storyline wise) Austin at that time was damn near undefeated against the Rock. I get the storyline but I always wondered that as a kid. It was like if I beat your ass in Madden everytime we play what would make me hellbent on beating you the next time we play??

They're not going to turn him. First of all, they are obviously playing this redemption crap even though the only clean loss Cena had last year was to Rock. And secondly, it's not like when Austin turned. When he turned they had people like Rock, Kane, Taker, Jericho and Benoit for him to feud with. Right now the company is lacking in faces so there is not much for him to go against after Rock.

 

[Johnny_2_Clips]

I'm more curious about Punk/Taker. Are they going to boost Punk to that level by him beating the Undertaker or will they carry on the streak and have Taker face Lesnar next year..?

Y2J
Orton
Punk could flip in a clean Taker win
HHH-If he beats Lesnar then they could feud since Cena is screwing the company over
The Rock could get a rematch
Sheamus
Ryback
Daniel Bryan

They have faces, and now's the time to boost them up. Hell I'd love to see Kofi take the next step with someone like Punk or Cena doing it. Kofi is the black Jeff Hardy I never saw Jeff as a main eventer til he fought Taker on TV in that ladder match for the WWE title. That match made Jeff a main eventer




PUSH KOFI!!!!!

Taker can barely move, he isn't fighting Lesnar's stiff ass. Lesnar would prolly snap his neck by mistake.

Well that's just the rumor that I've heard. I would rather Punk end the streak and just became even more the ultimate heel. But I'm not sure who he could feud with afterwards. Orton? Del Rio? Sheamus?

I'd enjoy a Punk/Orton 2 but you know he's fighting Cena ASAP, barring a turn that's when WWE will act like Cena and Punk don't even know eachother exist and Punk will care less about the chip

I said this on another board. Cena should lose this match, snap and go the AJ Styles route. He can get his win at Extreme rules, but Cena should NOT win at Wrestlemania.

It looks like Y2J will be taking another hiatus.
Orton is much better as a heel and he has 2 strikes so the company can only push him so much.
HHH is only a part timer. And if Cena cheats to beat Rock how exactly is he screwing the company over? Rock is a part timer who only showed up maybe half of the time during the Road to Wrestlemania.
Rock is a part timer and him and Cena don't like each other so it doesn't matter what Cena's status is he's automatically the heel.
Sheamus is Cena lite and too jokey
Bryan is comedic right now and would have to transition
I could see Ryback and Cena feuding but considering that Cena voluntarily passed up a title shot so that Ryback could have it that wouldn't make sense either. And Ryback's promo work and ring work needs improvement. Cena is at his best being led thru a match not being the leader.

I've heard that they're thinking of turning Kofi. Even with that ladder match it was years before Jeff Hardy was a legit main eventer. I could see Punk working with Kofi but it seems like the company doesn't want to push him and he'd have to completely adjust his style to being a heel.
