The Critic Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 30, 2009 -> 06:15 AM) Lacey Von Erich seems like she has pissed off pretty much everyone Yeah, apparently she walks around backstage like she owns the place and doesn't take anyone's advice. Which is a bad thing when you can't wrestle or speak. She's real cute, but that ain't gonna save her from the unemployment line for long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, that was another Dr. D., David Schultz. Schultz was off his f***ing rocker. Dr. Death was a good friend of Jim Ross, yet agreed (to keep his job, I'm sure) to hang around with Ed Ferrara's awful "Oklahoma" character in WCW, who was basically mocking Ross' Bell's Palsy. And it was John Stossel who took the open hand to the ear, messing up his hearing legit. Edited December 30, 2009 by The Critic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 thats right, John Stossel. he was such a condescending prick, and he thought being a journalist was going to make him immune to what happened. he may have sued and won, but i enjoyed watching the replay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember hearing Jim Cornette tell a story how the Gunn/Williams fight was set up for Williams to win & to be set up in a main card feud with Stone Cold.

Wasn't that Brawl 4 All booked as legit boxing matches and they were ending in decisions and no knockouts then Bart Gunn knocked out Dr Death and they started pre-determining Bart Gunn knocking guys out...than threw him to the wolves at WM 15 against Butterbean. I don't think anyone thought Bart Gunn would have a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Critic Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 Okay, if this is true......NOW color me interested!! http://bleacherreport.com/articles/31801...e-creative In a most interesting article posted by The Sports Courier, it is speculated TNA Wrestling will blast out during its first unopposed hour this Monday January 4th during the 1st Monday Night Wrestling Wars in 9 years. Vince McMahon's WWE will be challenged by a new version of TNA, lead by former WCW President Eric Bischoff, WWE Wrestlemania and All Time Legend Hulk Hogan, TNA President Dixie Carter, and surprises they will unveil on Monday Night. According to the article, which was written by Fred Richani there is a 95% that former WWE superstar Ken "Mr. Kennedy" Anderson will make his TNA debut this Monday night. Before you discredit this source, think about it. Anderson has been relatively quiet. He took some Nu-Wrestling Evolution and Hulkamania Tour international bookings, but has not popped up much, if at all stateside in a wrestling capacity. Anderson even said on his Twitter that he wasn't a free agent. This was in response to a fan mentioning he was “the hottest free agent in wrestling.” Now here comes the big surprise. From the article: Here's the real bombshell. We are told there is a 75% chance, if not better, that former ECW owner, WWE manager/commentator, and creative genius Paul Heyman will debut for TNA on Monday night. In fact, it is believed that he may be the first person you see on your television screen, assuming the now non-WWE contracted Shane McMahon doesn't decide to take a stroll (now that would freeze hell over) to Orlando, Florida. On a side note, if Heyman does debut for TNA on Monday night, it further pieces everything together. RVD and Anderson did the Hulkamania Tour. RVD is tight with Hogan. Heyman is loyal to Anderson and RVD. Heyman can provide the creativity and sense that has been lacking in TNA's booking for quite some time. And here's some food for thought. Tommy Dreamer left WWE's ECW brand. He is actually not contracted by WWE anymore. In fact, he can't appear on television for a major promotion until a designated 90-day period ends. I ask you readers this. Who said Dreamer would go to TNA as a wrestler? If Heyman shocks the world Monday night, expect Dreamer to be backstage and involved in some creative/road agent capacity in the very near future (aka a non-televised/non-active wrestling role). Lastly, we were told that none of us should be surprised if Booker T returns to Raw this Monday night for WWE, as a way of Vince McMahon letting TNA know “I won't acknowledge you, but I know you're there.” Hulk Hogan seems to be doing what he's said since joining TNA: shaking things up.

Kyyle23 Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 Heyman would be interesting, but the powers that be never seem to let Heyman do his thing. When he is creative control, he is at his best, but I really cannot see Bischoff or Hogan allowing that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's basically moved on from wrestling, although he has kept his ear to the ground. I think Heyman, Hogan and Bischoff would be highly motivated to challenge VKM, so anything is possible. If it meant Russo got the boot, even better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyyle23 Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 My buddy was telling me he heard a Hogan quote where Hulk was saying that he wants to do away with the 6 sided ring ASAP. I havent found it yet, but if so I would agree with that decision, although it does remove a bit of brand identity from TNA. That 6 sided ring just doesnt work when I watch it though, the wrestlers look like their moves are inhibited by the ring, they are used to more space between posts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think anyone thought Bart Gunn would have a shot. IIRC, it was set up for Dr. Death to win the entire thing until Gunn knocked him out. Then they decided to throw him in there against Butterbean thinking that he actually had a chance. That was the last we heard of Bart Gunn. As for tomorrow night. Yep, I'll be watching my first TNA show, that is until 8 when my favorite wrestler makes his return & hopefully it won't suck. I just hope TNA realizes that they can bring in all the star power they want, they still have to put out a quality product. Even though growing up on the original ECW, RVD & Heyman excite me. Same with Kennedy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
