Random News 2014

[Guest HH-Evolution]

Apparently JR Recently signed a contract for Fox...so that's something, I suppose!

[Guest Dave7g]

It's for foxsports.com, just a writing gig.

[Guest John Hancock]

Boo.

[Guest Ciaran The King]

Didn't JR always aspire to be in Sport Broadcasting??

[Omega 354]

Regal can insert a screwdriver into his sinuses...

 

[Maxximus 353]

That's news? :lol

[Guest Jimmy Redman]

Well, it's random.

 

Speaking of which, sign that Lance Storm is insane:

 

(On Cena vs Hunter at WM22) "The crowd did not seem into the match much.."

[Guest Ciaran The King]

Lance Storm is obviously on drugs

[Guest John Hancock]

...

[Kam 243]

This is what Hacksaw said about Lance in his interview with W101:

 

I would be wrestling with Lance Storm and he’s as vanilla as they come and I’m behind him being ‘Hacksaw’. They called me into the office and said that they were trying to showcase the kids and asked if I could turn my stuff down a little bit. I was like turn my stuff down, tell the boy to turn his shit up, this is the big leagues.

 

Oh and some WWE news from the Wrestling-Online Newsletter:

 

NBCU OFFERING HALL OF FAME PROPERTY IN BID TO KEEP WWE

 

- In a bid to keep all WWE programming, NBC Universal is out in full force, even offering a space at their Universal Studios property to host a physical WWE Hall of Fame according to the New York Post. The Post reports in an article published yesterday that NBCU top execs are putting together a final pitch to present WWE for all WWE television shows before their exclusive negotiating period expires on February 1. After February 1, WWE can talk to other television networks with rumors flying that Viacom is once again interested in taking WWE back. If the exclusive window closes without a deal, NBC Universal have a matching rights clause according to the New York Post so even if let’s say Viacom offer more money, NBCU can match it and keep the shows. Currently NBCU pays around $140 million a year for RAW and Smackdown and WWE is looking to increase that significantly to match other sports.

There is talk of Russo coming back to TNA in some role.

[Guest Fatherof10minis]

TMZ.com has an article up, an interview with Seth Rollins where Seth admits to urinating in a water bottle under the ring mid match at a live event. Makes me wonder what Lawler was drinking through the Royal Rumble 1996 match to keep hydrated.

[Guest Magic]

I watched that interview, thought Rollins came across like a really good dude.

[Guest Ciaran The King]

Rollins is a top guy

[Guest Fatherof10minis]

Yeah i thought the same too, down to earth type of personality.

[GENE 86]

I know this is old news but I see AJ Styles has left TNA and wrestled in ROH, has he really left or is this a work?

[ViciousPrism 177]

Yes, he's done.

[Guest John Hancock]

He's out, and he's probably waiting for Jeff Jarrett to start his new company.

[Guest Jayfunk]
