Soxfest Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 From Booker T website Announcement We want to begin by thanking the many wonderful WWE fans that we have had the privilege of entertaining over the last eight years. Sharmell and I have enjoyed the opportunity to put smiles on your faces night after night. We also want to thank everyone in the wrestling community for their support of our very own P.W.A. (Pro Wrestling Alliance). The dream of bringing professional wrestling back to my home town of Houston, Texas is coming to fruition, and we have you to thank for it. I want to address something that has been on my mind for quite some time now in regards to my recent suspension from WWE. I want to state for the record that I was not taking any illegal substance, or anything outside of my physician's care, and that the suspension was unwarranted. However, rather than fight the suspension or publicly voice my discontent, I used this recent hiatus to rest, work with the P.W.A., and reflect on the direction of my career as a professional wrestler. I also, for the record, have never at any time ordered anything from "Signature Pharmacy". This allegation is upsetting, and the careless and slanderous reporting of this matter is currently being addressed by my legal counsel. I would like to also address any possible rumors or misinformation regarding our release from WWE. I had been unhappy for quite some time with the direction that the Company was going in. In fact, I asked for my release back in July for that very reason. However, after further contemplation, I decided to continue on with WWE because of my passion for this industry and my desire to entertain the fans. Unfortunately, it quickly became apparent that my unhappiness with my work environment was beginning to take a great toll on other aspects of my life. I knew that it was time to make some extremely tough decisions. Therefore, in the interest of my mental, physical, and spiritual well being, I along with my wife, asked for our release from World Wrestling Entertainment for the second time within months. We were graciously granted our release and we have since amicably parted ways. While the business relationship between ourselves and the WWE has ended, we will continue to be involved in Professional Wrestling. We hope that our loyal fans will follow us as we make this transition. Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts, and we will see you soon!

longshot7 Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 QUOTE(The Critic @ Oct 16, 2007 -> 03:18 PM) Somebody PLEASE stop Vince Russo. David Arquette Returning to Wrestling? Date Added: October 16, 2007 Story By: Marc Middleton Partial source: Wrestling Observer - TNA is in talks with former WCW World Champion and actor David Arquette about making his TNA debut. Apparently Arquette has contacted Johnny Fairplay to be his manager. In other bad news, Booker and Sharmell's WWE release is official. Hahahahahahahahahahaha!!! Is Marc Middleton a pen name for David Arquette? Love it. btw, Batista & Melina WERE screwing around - that's why they moved MNM to Raw. They aren't anymore, supposedly she's still with Nitro. Have you read the book or are you summarizing what some crappy website recaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you read the book or are you summarizing what some crappy website recaps? Supposedly there are exerts from the book online. Said they were just friends until they got divorced and than got physical and are friends. Who the hell would buy a book from Batista? I just finished the Chris Jericho book. He has a way with words, similar to how Foley wrote his first two books. Funny stuff about how Goldberg thought Jericho was legit mocking him and Goldberg didn't even know they were in an angle. Jericho had every intention of putting Goldberg over and making him look good and was suppose to happen at World War 3 that year, but Goldberg was promised the PPV off and they dropped it.

The Critic Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 SPOILER ALERT!!!!!! Highlight the text below if ya wanna know: Kurt Angle is once again the TNA champion. Typical, stupid two-referee "double decision" followed by Cornette having to decide which decision stands. UGH. Nice "Tommy Rich Title Reign" they gave Sting this time... Worth it, huh???

Kyyle23 Posted October 20, 2007 Share Posted October 20, 2007 You know, MVP really grew on me. His heel qualities and sort of babyface turn really has shown me a much more developed character.
