Makes you wonder how Vince could give Bischoff of all people a job after everything he did yet cant make up with Ultimate Warrior after all these years & releases an insulting burial DVD when he drew huge money for him.
$ Money $

Bischoff brought in the money as well as the Ultimate Warriors DVD.

RAW is live this coming Monday from the former Fleet Center in Boston.
It's now known as the TD Banknorth Garden. Talk about cheesy! That arena has NO BUSINESS being called "the Garden". :throwup:
 
Why would Vince want to bring the Ultimate Warrior back anyway? It was proven that he was a hero for a past age when he came into WCW. Sad as it makes me, he's done and there isn't much in the way of him coming back.

Member, you member...
I want to see more Stephanie. So, American Harley, if you can use your pull, she could be the new GM for RAW and SmackDown, and maybe get her into some bra and panties matches. See what you can do, okay?

Ahhh...Steph, boy do I doubt that, but you never know. I found it hilarious how last Monday Vince introduced Steph and HHH. They acted as if they never even met before:rofl:

For now the Raw Gm is up in the air as far as those who aren't within Vince's office. There have been some big names thrown around but speculation is that the names are just to keep interest. The one name I have heard a lot for the postion is Dusty Rhodes:eek:

I agree but look at all the profitable comebacks the aging Hogan makes every year? I think he deserves better respect than he gets. Warrior is getting a raw fucking deal cause of this DVD with current performers ripping on him. And when you see lousy 'talent' like Koko B Ware & Hillbilly Jim as 'Legends' when the real legends like Warrior, Randy Savage & Brunno Sammartino are nowhere to be seem..Its a shame, i like Vince but hes an asshole without a doubt.

I read Warrior was going to make the DVD with co-operation with WW(e), all he wanted was flyers for his own DVD to be put in their product & vice versa. Vince said no, then went ahead & made the burial.

Bret Hart's DVD was going to be called 'Bret Hart-Screwed' until Hart burried the hatchet fearing the same treatment. Vince needs to pay some dues sometimes, how can canyone work for him when this is what happens down the line? Money i guess.
 
I was watching a Bret Hart interview (joys of living in Calgary, everything even slightly related to him gets aired) and he mentioned that the reason behind the release of the DVD was because he owned none of his own footage from WWE and wanted it to be released for the fans who never got to see all his fights. Basically, as Bret put it, he was in a dentist/doctor office and this lil kid recongized him and commented on how he wished he could see his matches. Also, on the interview he slammed Shawn Michaels when the mention of Micahel's new book and his first public confession on him knowing about the Montreal incident before it happened.

I haven't seen the Ultimate Warrior trash-talk DVD but you'd think they'd have better things to do than bash on someone who really has no say anymore.

Your correct. WWE owns all of Bret Hart's footage and the only way for him to get it out on DVD was to work with WWE. And yes there was and still is bickering/arguing between Bret and HBK:fight:

-- Right now it is unknown whether WWE will renew Paul Heyman’s contract. It’s likely that they could sign him just in order to keep him away from competition, however they may not have the money to do so. Heyman has a screenplay he’s shopping around, a TV show idea, he’s been approached by an MMA company, and there is also talk of him doing some sort of internet show.

If his contract does not get renewed, it’s almost a sure thing that he will get a call from TNA. Whether he would want to go or not, and whether certain people within TNA would want him there or not, is a different story.


IMO the WWE needs to keep Heyman, not just to keep him away from TNA, but because he is a creative genius who is getting pushed out of the WWE by Steph McMahon.

Warrior notes:

-- Cena and Batista are the first people since The Ultimate Warrior in 1990 to hold their titles from WrestleMania through after Survivor Series.

-- Speaking of Ultimate Warrior, the WWE DVD on him is currently ranked #2 for sales on the Billboard charts for pro wrestling/MMA.

Monday Night Raw Results





WWE Champion John Cena def. Daivari (You Can't See Me Match)
Kurt Angle def. Ric Flair (Elimination Chamber qualifier)
Shawn Michaels def. Big Show (Elimination Chamber qualifier, DQ)
Kane def. Triple H (Elimination Chamber qualifier)
Carlito def. Shelton Benjamin (Elimination Chamber qualifier)
Chris Masters def. Viscera (Elimination Chamber qualifier)
Mickie James def. Victoria (No. 1 Contender's Match)



Well I geussed right for 4 of the 5 elimination matches, which now makes me wonder what HHH will do, if he works the pay per view, and what Show will do w/o Kane.
 
While watching Raw last night, the discussion of preforming and how a single mistake can cost you a career. Not talking about injuries or accidents more like screw-ups that ruin you as a respectable performer. So anyway, my buddy mentions this WCW wrestled named "The Shockmaster", aka Tugboat from his WWF days and the mockery that was his introduction.

Only thing that can begin to describe this is a clip of it: http://www.ebaumsworld.com/shockmaster.html

lol dreadful..remember when Tugboat reappeared in the Gimmick battle royal at WM17?

Who can forget Earthquake as The Shark or under a hood in the Oddities?? How about Terry Taylor as the Red Rooster? Vince also made fun of Dusty Roads of course putting him in poka dots during his WWF run...theres many more i guess. Pure wrestlecrap at its best..

Orlando Jordan attacked a fan last night on his way to the ring at the Smackdown show in Bangor. Apparently, the fan made some kind of racial slur and Jordan saw red and slapped the guy.


Happy Birthday Rey Mysterio:glugglug:

Also at the show they had a birthday celebration in the ring for Rey Mysterio who turned 31. The Mexicools brought out a cake which Rey tried to land on Tony Chimmel, missed, and hit some unlucky guy in the front row.
 
:1orglaugh Sounds like a bad night for the fans. I hope Orlando doesn't get in trouble for slapping the fan. I hate when fans interfere in any way at sporting/entertainment events, especially when it gets down to racial slurs. The fan got off the hook easy with just a slap. I don't think a professional that's used to people booing him all day is going to slap a fan unless there is a good reason. Just my :2 cents:
