“On behalf of myself, my company, WWE fans and any Connecticut citizen who wants to exercise their constitutional right to vote, I have filed a lawsuit today asserting that Susan Bysiewicz’s directive that allows poll workers to refuse registered voters wearing WWE merchandise the right to vote is a flagrant act of censorship and discrimination.”

IT’S POLITICAL SEASON
Hopefully Linda’s senate bid will shed more mainstream light on the story of Chris Benoit’s death (and the death of his family at his hands). Or Vince will just continue claiming these are lies, slander, and libel toward his company.
“Money … that’s the first concern of the McMahons … Everything they do is all based on public...
as an addendum to my previous entry, I like the editorial in the ProWrestling.Net post:
Can Linda supporters get around the ban by wearing XFL gear? Did anyone buy XFL gear? Does a Nexus shirt count since they are trying to take over WWE?

WWE Fans "Denied" the Right to Vote →
IT’S POLITICAL SEASON
My friend runs a pretty excellent political tumblr blog, and she is better at this sort of thing than I am, but lemme give it a go:
Recently, in Texas, a woman was “denied” her right to vote. The “tea party express,” as I suppose they have come to call themselves, jumped on this case; stating it as another attempt to silence the ever growing...

My dad just brought the paper in (the Richmond.com newspaper, not the Richmond Times-Dispatch newspaper) and on the front of it is a list of the “Top 10 Couples Costumes” for Halloween. Coming in at number 8 was:
8. Andy Kaufman and a Female Wrestler
“No one will know who you are, but you’ll…
hilarious, it has been my plan to be Andy for at least two months now!

Bret Hart Slams Bischoff →
“After being in WCW and being around them, you start to realize that these guys — Bischoff in particular — never understood or knew anything about wrestling… I hope the younger stars get a chance to show what they’ve got rather than coming back to the old dinosaurs like Hulk Hogan or Eric Bischoff with the same old certain babble that he’s been doing for 10...

Not Completely Wrestling Related
This is more just me wanting to share this link (although it has been pretty well documented that he completely loves and supports wrestling):
New Smashing Pumpkins track that isn’t unlistenable!
Actually, I sort of really enjoy it… great mid-90’s-style pop Pumpkins, completely worth the listen / free download (I guess the rest of the EP is free of their website, too, which is...

Additionally, WZ has been told that Vince McMahon doesn’t like MVP as a heel, and given MVP’s past the only way a true heel turn could work for him would be if creative went all the way with the turn and made light of his time spent in prison. Given WWE’s current PG setting, that idea is highly unlikely. While it’s true that...

ouch. … and, while I not only trust Paul E., I also have been reading for roughly four days that “JWoww” is appearing on TNA tonight, which is the furthest thing from cool.

Boiler Room Brawl
I remember reading in Mick Foley’s first book that the Boiler Room Brawl was a very divisive match.. the single camera, no commentary, and length of the match were very difficult hurdles to cross.
As I rewatched the match, I really felt like it was indeed one of the most unique matchups, maybe ever. The Undertaker and Mankind had, in my eyes (and, surely, in the eyes of many others) one of...

NXT
I guess I don’t “get” NXT as a WWE program.
…
so it’s supposed to be an elimination show, part of it is fan based (from what I understand), and part of it is “pro” based, where the established WWE “superstars” rank the rookies. The winner survives elimination, like any reality or game show.
In season 1, Wade Barret won, but in a pretty...

iatemykittycat asked:
Can you do a song called “They Saved Benoit’s Brain”? It’d sample that band that made Benoit’s theme song (that opening guitar riff, you know the one) and it’d be telling a true story. The story of when they saved Chris Benoit’s brain after he murderized his family. Scary, semi-topical, cute, it’s the perfect Halloween song...
Stryker: this is perhaps the biggest disappointment in John Cena’s career, above all, he feels perhaps he’s let down the entire “WWE Universe”
Cole: well, I mean, he has…
King: No, John hasn’t.
Cole: I, I mean, I get that, he hasn’t, but… he has
HA
