Stevo-O (of MTV's Jackass fame) admitted to making a mistake by laughing at Umaga during the segment on Monday Night Raw when he was supposed to be selling the attack. It was explained to him later that by laughing, it was a sign of disrespect. He claims to have remembered nothing from the point Umaga hit him hard in the ring until he was examined later by a doctor backstage.

That shit was funny when umaga started kicking his ass for real. Steve-O got exactly what he deserved.

Bubba squeezed one more story out of Hogan, but Hogan had to go last second."

UH OH!24wrestling reports the following:
"As reported earlier, Torrie Wilson posted a blog entry on her MySpace page regarding her impending divorce from Peter Gruner (Billy Kidman). However, it seems as though that Torrie pulled the blog entry just after she initially posted it as the entry is no longer on her MySpace page. It was on the page at least past 8:00 PM EST tonight as I personally saw it myself. Also, if you notice on the comments portion of the page, there are several people leaving comments regarding her divorce"

Vince McMahon was said to be "freaked out" after last week's "Ortiz vs. Shamrock 3" UFC special on SpikeTV drew a 3.1 overall rating and a 4.3 for the final quarter hour featuring the actual Ortiz vs. Shamrock fight. Vince went as far as to tell his writers to start coming up for ideas for Shamrock if they brought him in to WWE.

-- Supoosedly Paul Heyman had to explain to Vince that the UFC special's huge rating wasn't drawn just by Ken Shamrock, but that it was the whole Ortiz vs. Shamrock rivalry dating back years.

-- As of now, there's no word on whether the two sides are talking yet but WWE, namely Vince McMahon, is interested in the 42 year old "World's Most Dangerous Man". Shamrock is a former WWE Intercontinental champion who worked with the company during the Attitude era.

 

[blackmetal]

Sounds interesting...but i think it's not gonna happen because:1.Shamrock is too old
2.I don't see any reason for Shamrock to come to wwe
3.He's time has passed

Although i wouldn't mind seeing Shamrock do a couple of matches again for the wwe....

To update you on Ric Flair confronting Kanyon on the Howard Stern Shot this morning, Flair never said that he was “paid” to go on the air. Gary said that he called WWE and asked for someone from WWE to come on the show and with Vince and Triple H in Japan, Flair seemed like a good option. Flair told Kanyon that he no longer had “it” and he should not blame his release from WWE as a result of “coming out of the closet.” Kanyon asked Flair if he asked him to train his son David Flair, where Flair responded “no.” Kanyon told Flair that was a lie. It should be noted that this was all done in a very calm manner with no actual animosity.

According to an article by The Monroe, PA Times Express, WWE has hired 24 year old local broadcaster Jack Korpela. Apparently he will be an on air talent, most likely as an announcer. Korpela told the newspaper, "Even people that don't watch pro wrestling have to respect what (WWE owner) Vince McMahon and his family have done. He rescued a company that was almost out of business

When Too Cold Scorpio makes his return to WWE (probably next month), it will be under the dancing Flash Funk persona - which is quite similar to The Godfather's gimmick. No word yet if he will have some "Funkettes" in tow. Also, this pretty much confirms that he won't be a part of ECW.

Umaga has issued an open challenge for any ECW or Smackdown star to face him at the Cyber Sunday PPV.

As reported earlier, Marty "The Boogeyman" Wright was rehired after previously being fired a few weeks ago. Booker T was the individual who pushed for his re-hiring. The Boogeyman is supposed to be a "Booker project" as he will be training mid-week, every week at Booker's wrestling school in Houston. Also, one company source is saying that there was an implied race card used in Wright's rehiring, and the company felt vulnerable to it right now due to the Cryme Tyme act getting negative publicity.

Apparently, there were some websites reporting that Harry Smith had failed a drug test. Those reports have been confirmed to be false. However, Smith has been off the road since early September as it is believed that the WWE creative team has nothing for him.

After several months, Joey Mercury is finally out of rehab and is currently training for a WWE return down in Ohio Valley Wrestling. Although, without Melina and Johnny Nitro by his side, things will more than likely be difficult for him upon his return.

OVW wrestlers Jon Bolen and "Silverback" Ryan Reeves have been put together as a tag team called "High Dosage." Several years ago, there was a similar tag team in WCW called High Voltage (Kenny Kaos and Robbie Rage) and their inside joke nickname was High Dosage. Reeves in particular looks the part as he is one of the most muscular guys - if not the most muscular guy - under WWE contract. Also, back in July, Reeves was suspended for 30 days due to failing a drugs test.

Both Moolah and Mae Young were originally intended to have much larger roles on the 10/9 RAW. In fact, Moolah was supposed to wrestle Melina on the show in the women's tournament (Torrie ended up wrestling Melina instead). The scripted idea was for Moolah to wrestle (and lose), have a woman interfere, and Mae would give that woman a bronco buster. The match would have been short, but Moolah still has an old-school mentality where she wouldn't be happy losing a short TV match. Anyways, both women had recent falls and the match was nixed. Mae recently fell on her hip while in the bathroom when she went to weigh herself on a scale. Her hip wasn't broken, but she was very sore. Mae used a walker backstage but is expected to get rid of it soon. As for Moolah, she fell two weeks ago when she was in New Jersey for an autograph signing. She was hurt, but did not break her hip either.

Former WWE Superstar Thomas Spear, professionally known as Corporal Kirchner, passed away of natural causes Sunday in his home in White Marsh, Md. He is survived by his two sons, daughter and step-daughter, as well as two grandchildren.

A Vietnam veteran, Kirchner is known for defending his country in the ring as well as out. He is not only revered as one of sports-entertainment’s toughest competitors, but also one of its greatest patriots.

In the early 1980s, Kirchner was a close protégé of another patriot, former WWE Champion and Hall of Famer Sgt. Slaughter. Perhaps one of Kirchner’s most celebrated victories took place at WrestleMania 2 where he defeated WWE Hall of Famer Nikolai Volkoff in a Flag Match.

In what was an expected moved, The Wrestling Observer Newsletter is reporting that WWE has released Dionicio Castellanos (Psicosis) last week. The decision was made to fire him two Fridays ago on October 13th, although the actual official firing is expected to be announced later in the week by WWE. WWE is awaiting all the details of his recent arrest so that they can have them on file before they actually let him go for legal reasons. His profile page still remains on WWE.com at the moment.

Psicosis is expected to go back to AAA and feud with another wrestler named Psicosis - the feud he was involved in prior to signing with WWE in 2005.

Those close to the situation say that he's recently had problems with his wife. Psicosis had been staying at home far too much since WWE wasn't using him and he was depressed about that, especially considering that the downside of his contract only paid him $500 a week when he wasn't working. Psicosis' last WWE appearance occurred at the 7/18 SmackDown tapings in a loss to Super Crazy.

Prior to his termination, Psicosis was told that he was going to be brought back to WWE with a new gimmick. WWE officials asked him to a grow a mustache like a stereotypical Mexican Revolution general from a century ago (think Pancho Villa) and he would come to the ring with a gun belt.

HOLLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!*SPOILER*on smackdown Teddy Long anounced a Kennedy&MVP/Undertaker&Kane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!The brothers of destruction reunite!!!!!!!

 

[Dillon]

Slam! Wrestling recently conducted an interview with Mike "Cpl." Kirchner. Kirchner talks about not being dead (as was reported by WWE.com), his career and more.That's funny.

 

[phynix]

So I just heard from wrestlingexposed.com that Sky Sports has "No Plans" to show Cyber Sunday on November 5th. Ok So we all know that CS isn't gonna be a big winner when it comes toPPV's but I've voted for matches dam it and I want to see if my votes actually counted? I've sent Sky Sports an email asking them why? I mean they show every other PPV even Saturday night main event and the last two Taboo Tuesday's so why stop now? Hell 5 of the yearly PPV's are on Sky Box Office which means I have to fork out another 15 quid just ses them. I'm pissed off now!

 

[blackmetal]

I hear your pain......btw. Brothers of Destruction reunite next smacjdown....Good or Bad is gonna last long...is it gonna be a short cooperation so they feud against each other and make another Undertaker vs Kane at wrestlemania?

 

[saeko nogami]

I hope the writers get fresh ideas because this kane/undertaker angle has been used so many times already.WWE needs some fresh giants in their prime, such a shame nathan jones has left.

 

[blackmetal]

You are absolutley correct...but 'taker and kane are legends they drew crowds.And as no matter how many times they reunite BOD and feud them...they are still undertaker and kane the 2 biggest names in pro wrestling today.And you have to admit you want to see them fight side by side one more time.....

 

[phynix]

Dam right we do we all remember how much fun the summer of 2001 was which was the last time these two giants were side by side as a tag team. If I remeber rightly they picked up all the gold including thee WWF and the WCW tag team titles. Lets be honest here we've all enjoyed see London and Kendrick flying around the right with their titles but we'd all enjoy see Kane & 'Taker destroy them as well....Wait hold the phone I got it...They should turn them Heel, C'Mon Kane & 'Taker as Heel just ruling Smackdown! - Thats got money written all over it!

 

[blackmetal]

So damn true!
