    World Title Update

    Edge gave his retirement speech on RAW and on Smackdown this week he will vacate the title. I assume that Christian vs. Alberto Del Rio will be announced for the title in a ladder match at Extreme Rules.

    Larry Sweeney Passes Away

    This is terrible news. I heard so many great things about Sweeney from his time in ROH and CHIKARA and you never want anyone to do this. He did have bi-polar and he had some bad moments with it but you never expect anyone to take their own life. He was only 29 years old and had so much more to...

    Edge Retires

    On RAW this week Edge cut a promo saying that he has retired. This is in fact legitimate and here is the reason why. It is sad to hear that he is suffering badly again but it is great that Edge has immediately made the decision to retire. There is no point risking his body so that he has to...

This month we had our first giveaway and we plan to have many more in the future. Coming up in a couple of months is...

    Scott Hall in bad shape again

    Sad that Hall has again succombed to his demons. It is a shame that he did this again especially after he seemed so responsible when he didn't go to the HOF because he didn't want to be tempted. There doesn't seem to be much hope for Hall which is a shame.

    WWE to tape TV in Mexico for the first time

    It is about time they did this. It is a huge market for them and with the recent addition of Del Rio and Sin Cara this is the perfect time to do it. This should become an annual thing like WWE do in England every year. Hopefully they will eventually do a taping in Australia.

    Pets

    I finally figured out how to use photobucket so I can now post pictures of my dog in this thread rather than just talk about her. I have a dog, breed German Sheperd, called Lucy. I wanted to call her Sparta so that whenever someone asked me what her name was I could do my best 300 impression...

    What next for HHH and Undertaker?

    Triple H and the Undertaker put everything into their match at WrestleMania and after the match Undertaker had to be helped out to the back. Whether that was just great selling it doesn't matter since it would indicate that Undertaker is going to miss some time in the near future. Triple H on...

    WWE Divas Upset With Trish Getting a Mania Spot

    Trish Stratus deserves a spot on the card because of what she has done in the past. She is the greatest Diva of all time and yet these new diva's are bitching about it. Plus Trish was there to promote WWE's newest show so it was important for her to plan a role so that fans could see that she...

    UFC Releases Sean McCorkle

    It is a bit of a surprise that he has been released so soon since he was 9-0 before UFC and is 1-2 in the UFC. The UFC heavyweight division has plenty of top contenders and they need guys to face when they drop out of contention. However Strikeforce is packed full of heavyweights so maybe UFC is...

    The Future of WWE Superstars

    Once the international deals expire they will drop this right away. I assume they will do the same with NXT. Hopefully there isn't long left on the deals so that the focus can be on RAW, Smackdown and Tough Enough.

    More 3 Hour RAW's Planned

    Very odd that there are two three hour RAWs in consecutive weeks. The Capitol Punishment PPV is June 19th so we get one either side of it. Normally WWE like to give these longer shows a theme so maybe for the June 20th show it will be a draft.

    Member of the Month: Dademo Best Writer: Deezy Best Wrestling Poster: Deezy Best Non-Wrestling: Dademo I just want to note as well that for most of the categories it was very tough to choose winners. There was a lot of great posting in March and if you missed out don't feel disappointed...

    World Wrestling Entertainment Officially Becomes WWE

    Some key points in that press release. WWE are really focussing on expanding in the entertainment business rather than trying to succeed in other areas outside their expertise which is smart. WWE Network should be good, considering the huge video library WWE have, when it is launched in 2012...

    30 Rock to end next season

    I think that 30 Rock is a great show but I understand why season six will be the final season. The ratings have never been huge and six seasons is a great effort for a comedy show these days. Like Baldwin said Tina Fey has so many bigger opportunities out there, she has already written and acted...

    Vince McMahon Talks About Eliminating The Word Wrestling and More

    Do have a read of the article, it is a very good read. Reading that I can understand why Vince wants to remove the word wrestling especially as he wants to expand more into the live events business. I did like the comment at the end when XFL and the Times Square restaurant are mentioned, Vince...

    ROH Announces Four New Signings

    Good to see ROH securing these names for the future. ROH has constantly lost a stream of talent to both WWE and TNA and it is good to see them locking in names like this.
