You can tell he's old just by his usage of the term "dearest".

Kurt looks/is crippled up

You can really see how bad Kurt is there.

Dancor

He has that "maybe if I stand like this ill be in less pain" look about him.

Riddle101

I bet Kurt is proberly the happiest he's been in age in the pic. Being with The Rock again, doing a movie. Proberly misses the old days.

Interview with Charlie Haas about WWE's Tag Division and Laurinaitis.

Mike Buda from SportstownChicago.com recently had an interview with Charlie Haas and he talked about ROH’s tag team success, Jim Cornette, John Laurainitis, Team Angle and his thoughts of WWE’s tag team division and how to fix it. Here are a few interesting things he had to say:

On WWE’s tag team division:

“If you look at their tag team division, it sucks. The wrestlers don’t suck, the division sucks. Creative doesn’t know it; I don’t know if it’s creative or the political bull**** Vince McMahon or whoever that don’t like tag team wrestling. They don’t push it and they don’t showcase it like they used to. At one time, it was phenomenal when you had Edge and Christian, the Dudleys, the Hardys and the New Age Outlaws. That was great, but now they just throw two guys together and they put a couple of ****ty belts on them that look terrible. Those belts look like pennies.”

On how to fix WWE’s tag team division:

“You’ve got one of the greatest minds in the business, who was part of one of the greatest tag teams and that’s Arn Anderson. I would go back to the agents and say ‘Arn, you’re in charge of the tag team division. Come up with some tag teams, create tag teams and create story lines.’ Let the agents that have been in the ring and have done their jobs, let them write the business.”

On John Laurainitis’ job:

“He has a hard job. Everyone can say that he should do this or do that, but I guess you really can’t tell until you’re in that position. He’s got a lot of pressure on him and he’s got to show that they’re saving money and that the money they’re putting out towards wrestlers are going to produce to make that money back. It’s a numbers game with him and it’s tough for him. I think he does the best that he can to his capabilities.”

The Rock knew when to get out of the business. He still looks as healthy as an Ox. Kurt on the other hand will be lucky to make 50

Go back and look at Kurt just 10 years ago, he was a machine. He's broken down and frail now and should call it quits. Sign a legends contract with WWE and wrestle 2 or 3 high profile matches and retire, before his body retires on him.

10 years ago Kurt was CLEARLY on steroids though, think people forget that.

Personally I think Angle looks healthier now. He looked like a freak this time ten years ago, his neck was huge.

The Rock looks much bigger these days too. I watched Summerslam 2001 earlier and he looked a good deal smaller than he is now.

Paul Heyman will be heading to WWE headquarters soon to work on the new CM Punk DVD. Last year, Heyman was interviewed for Steve Austin’s most recent DVD set. Both Steve Austin and CM Punk personally requested that Heyman be involved in their projects.

Michael Bay hides it well.

Angle needs a refund if he is still on them too.

He does. He wants to get into boxing now thought. He is a ****ty, less successful Brock Lesnar. Total bust that lad.

Don't even mention him in the same sentence as Brock!

Who are Lawler and Nash wrestling?

We agree on something

jaykhunter

yeah, less successful than Brock is an understatement! Lasher had a rough time with soup cans.

Leave the poor God of Thunder alone.

Lord TSC

lol at the Bella's getting more prominant billing than King, Nash and Lashley

Some former WCW wrestler was added to the WWE superstar page and judging by his Bio, Milestones, and Career Highlights, he retired in 2001 and hasn't been seen since.

Link - TNA doesn't exist.

What's worse is they're not even kind enough to link to his Twitter.

I'd give anything to see Sting have a retirement match at Mania I think he has one big match left in him.

After the omni disaster that was the Wrestlemania weekend shows ROH decided to take the iPPVs in house instead of relying on 3rd party host GoFightLive:

This is probably the making or breaking of the company. Personally, I am extremely pessmistic as the owners Sinclair Boardcasting Group is a very apparently a Low Cost Provider. Joe Koff Michael O'Learyesquely the CFO told angry fans that they got what they paid for. Also the production values of the TV despite improvements is still f*cking ****e.

He certainly deserves one huge pay day before he retires from the business.

Depressing note from Meltzer this morning:

There were also a lot of fingers being pointed at the problems on the PPV including Cena’s promo, Lesnar nearly getting hurt, as well as the timing issues on Raw with the Jericho finish being botched. Vince McMahon now wants more rehearsals and the writers and producers and well as production people were told he wants more communication. One person close to the process expects that the content will be more rigidly scripted and Vince is going to have to approve just about everything.

As if Vince wasnt crazy or overloaded enough

Seriously though, they were stupid botches and better communication would have gotten rid of that (regarding the Jericho one).

Also bullsh*t on the Cena promo, Kevin Dunn is director, if it wasn't meant to happen it would have been cut off, they have the 10 second delay...
