    Is Danielson banging one of the Bella twins?

    Storyline I'd say. It'll probably come up before Mania and lead to AJ inevitably costing him the title.

    I love it when two of my favourite things randomly come together!

    Keith Apicary is played by Nathan Barnatt, video game reviewer addicted to old consoles, particularly SEGA and the Neo Geo.

    And since you brought up the subject, Barnatt is also part of one of my favorite music videos of all time :D

    WWE officials notified Bright House Network Monday that they have opted to cease their affiliation with the Florida based sports network as they are shutting down Florida
    Championship Wrestling effective
    immediately. Florida Championship Wrestling programming, which was taped last Thursday in Tampa, Florida, will cease to air on the network in three weeks. Everyone involved with Florida Championship Wrestling will relocate to WWE's homebase in Stamford, Connecticut until a further decision regarding the developmental program
    is made. WWE employees were given the impression that a developmental promotion will ultimately open in Connecticut with the possibility of a second at an undetermined location. The promotion was started by former
    wrestler Steve Keirn in 2007 to be WWE's second developmental promotion when they ended their
    relationship with the Georgia-based Deep South Wrestling in early 2007. It became their sole developmental promotion in early 2008 when they ceased affiliation with Ohio Valley Wrestling.

    From PWInsider:

    Sources within WWE are stating that there are no plans to shut down WWE developmental Florida Championship Wrestling.
    As we wrote earlier, the TV series on Brighthouse Sports Network in Florida is coming to an end, but there have been discussions to move tapings to another location and network.

    All FCW training is ongoing as scheduled today. Talents have been told there is nothing to worry about. All currently booked FCW events are still on as scheduled.

    I reckon it'll end up on the WWE Network if it ever gets going.

    Happy to see FCW retained for developmental. They've invested quite a bit of money in facilities down there so you'd imagine their committed to Florida for the long haul.

    Post-WrestleMania advertisements for the April 12th and 13th shows in Dublin Ireland and also Belfast Northern Ireland are featuring Daniel Bryan vs Sheamus vs Christian for the World Championship. This could be an indication that Christian will be thrown back into the world title scene again.

    In a period of tremondous economic, political, social and technological change it is heartening to know Low Ki is still Low Ki. Below is a recap of his interview on the F4W site
    Came across like an asshole to me throughout the entire interview with Bryan. Threatening to shoot on people if they were green. Talking about how NOW it's easier to be a pro wrestler as anyone could just take a few classes, pretending like 1998 was a different world in regards to wrestling schools. ****ting on FCW guys apart from Sheamus. Calling Punk & Bryan NON-Champions because they're not headlining Wrestlemania (obviously not understanding that Rock is the draw this year).

    We get it, you throw SHOOT kicks in a WORKED environment, GOOD FOR YOU.

    I miss Layla,Kaval not so much.


  • Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 12,013 Mod ✭✭✭✭jaykhunter


    Senshi is one of my favourite wrestlers but unfortunately he doesn't seem to grasp pro wrestling. I can't believe he'd rather toil on the indy circuit, killing his body 'being real' or whatever than spending a while in FCW and getting a break down the line. D-Bryan isn't doing too bad for himself; if Kaval got half the opportunity it'd be great for all of us. :(

    I wish TNA stuck Senshi in with Angle, they'd batter/shoot on each other and have amazing matches.

    Wasn't his reason for leaving WWE due to the fact that he asked and they told him they had no idea what to do with him? Can hardly blame him for looking to leave if he got told they don't know what to do with him. Add in the fact that he was losing almost every time and it wasn't looking likely they were ever going to do much with him.

    He came clean on that a while ago. He was actually fired and wanted to be in WWE for the most part. WWE felt he was hurting locker room morale moping around the place being miserable as he was losing all the time and WWE having no proper plan for him. But you know yourself the key with WWE is to hang around until WWE notices, get a push, get a depushed, lose every match, win the World title, get depushed again. :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,469 ✭✭✭✭GTR63


    I can't blame him for leaving wwe the place is a bit odd & not for everybody. You could be given a WWE Title if Vince likes you for even a brief period. Then they have these tests where they try to break you more or less testing your resolve. I have to kinda agree that Punk & Bryan are champs going into Mania but aren't doing the normal role of having the truly big matches on the card but Rock vs Cena was always taking going to take the spotlight whether anybody outside or in wwe like it or not.

    Kaval strikes me as a very proud man. From what i've read and seen of him. He takes wrestling seriously. Maybe he feels that losing means that WWE dosen't appreciate him or something. But still what did Kaval expect when he went there? That he'd be wrestling for the United States/I.C championship as soon as he got into WWE, and would be main eventing within two years? Kaval should have been content enough with what he had. Yet apparently he was moping around because he was losing all the time and that was effect lockerroom morale. I'd consider it paying my dues to be honest.

    If he has such a problem with losing, he should compete in a legitimate sport where his wins are important. Plus as he puts so much emphasis into looking 'real', surely a 'real' sport would suit him better?

    I don't get it - wrestling is entertainment. You don't hear of Brad Pitt getting pissy because his character didn't fare so well at the end of Se7en. You didn't read about Arnold moaning about the end of Terminator. I do not like this attitude shown by the likes of Low Ki. It's not the result of the match that matters - it's what happens in the match that matters, as that's what people remember.

    Hornswoggle posted a photo of "I'm sorry" written on his wrist this afternoon and said he just had a talk with The Rock. This was his way of apologizing after he made the following comments back on March 12th:

    "Glad @TheRock needs to sing karaoke to get his $hit in. @JohnCena will always be a true professional, doesn't need scripted lines, bullet points, or #stupidsrxualinuendos like @TheRock"

    The Rock wrote the following today, in response to Hornswoggle's apology:

    "@wwehornswoggle Thank U but not needed. Its what friends do - talk it out. Plus, if U took a swing at me you'd hit my balls. #NoBallShots"
