    Sadly for my enjoyment this isn't a real public addressing down but seemingly a start of an angle.

    Jericho probably returning for another Mania payoff, what an amazing coincidence.

    In fairness this is the week WWE in order to have enough depth on house shows they brought Swagger, Riley and Fandagoo out of the moth balls. As well as bring back New Age Outlaws and a pot bellied Jamie Noble. As well flying Ryback, Bryan, Kane and the Shield to open a house show in Detriot to Chicago to close another house show. I think Jericho has leverage don't you! ;)

    Jaysus the poor 6 lads who had to do that, its pure desperate. I never read the house reports but Heyman was in 'action' too or was at least to be booked vs Ryback. Not to mention my friends Flair and Mankind resurfacing. WWE must of had to make the call to him this year.
    On another note Fandangoo has turned up.

    Woah, I didn't understand what rovert said there, they had the New Age Outlaws wrestling on a house show, and Jamie Noble? Sounds nostalgic. I wouldn't have minded seeing them, really. As for Jack Swagger and Alex Riley, they should be permanent fixtures on the road I think.

    There is no excuse for having guys doing double duty in different cities. They have easily 60 odd wrestlers on the roster. Taking injuries and whatnot into account, they should still be at least around the 40 mark. Have the shield wrestle three singles matches, that's nearly half the card done already. House shows don't mean anything, just stick a babyface against a heel, there doesn't need to be a reason.

    Its not that simple though, people will stop going to house shows if they don't see 'star' names. Especially Smackdown who are missing both Orton and Rey while Henry and Christian are long term missing.

    Cena, Punk, Sheamus, Big Show, Bryan, Kane, Del Rio, Ryback, Ziggler, no shortage of big names and thats without Orton, Mysterio, Henry and Christian and probably forgetting a few.

    Punk is injured as well.

    So that leaves RAW with Cena, Bryan, Kane (People expect to see them as a duo), Ryback and Ziggler. One Heel.

    Smackdown with Sheamus, Big Show, Del Rio and Miz. Again one heel.

    So I see why they moved the big heel names around. They probably shouldn't have turned Miz and Del Rio so close together in time.

    If they did Cena v Random unimportant Heel the paying public wouldn't be impressed.

    Anyhow, this isn't the thread for this, so i won't derail anymore.

    Jeff is happy in TNA i think.


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,478 ✭✭✭✭gnfnrhead


    Jeff says he is staying in TNA. Basically he said he felt more wanted.

    WWE rejected Aries for Tough Enough. Doubt he'd even consider them after that.

    They had their chance but bafflingly turned him down for Tough Enough.... Andy? or was it Adam? Levine was a great winner though.

    I know that and I hope he stays but i'm suprised wwe hasn't been knocking his door down.

    Matt Fowler of Showrenirty.com recently quoted The Rock regarding his match at WrestleMania 29.

    “The storyline will be that starting this coming Monday [for RAW], I’m gonna go back, and it’s going to be a big return. That will lead to, hopefully, what will be the biggest WrestleMania of all time at Giants Stadium. I will headline that show, with someone who I can’t say right now. We’ve got an amazing four months lined up and planned out that will culminate in the biggest WrestleMania of all time. It’s going to be a hell of a thing.”

    Fowler got the quote from Rock while he was at the Television Critics Association Winter Press Tour to promote The Hero.

    Hyped for Undertaker's gong interrupting a Rock Concert.

    January 7th seems way too early for Taker to return.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,418 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Don't think they'll tease Rock's Mania match until after he's dealt with Punk and the Rumble match...

    Doomed when TNA turned him heel, his in ring work was never up to scratch either.

    Good now I can take a shot at Pope when I tell my brother he's gone. After I remind him he was still under contract.
    Anyway if the Smackdown results on ProWrestling.net are to be believed a big result went down on the show
