What I find most hilarious about the whole Andy Levine thing is that Tough Enough, a reality TV-style competition that is designed to produce the next top star and provide a personal insight into the eventual winner so that the audience connects to them before they've even debuted on the main shows, results in the winner getting slapped by Vince, pedigree'd by Hunter and sent to FCW for a few months before being unceremoniously released.
I'm not saying Andy Levine was ever worth shit, but you have to wonder if WWE even want to make new stars when they seem to show so much contempt for the process by repeatedly squandering opportunities to do so.
It's still leading to Ambrose debut - Mick saying he feels he has one good match, one big bump left in him, but not wanting to use that to put over Ambrose, that just forces Ambrose to take matters into his own hands. Next time Mick is in the ring on WWE TV, I'll be fully expecting Ambrose to attack and try and goad Mick into a feud.

When does Mick's next book come out?
Either that, or take Mick's one big bump away from him, "ending his in ring career".
Also....there aren't enough LOLs in the world for WWE releasing Levine.

No shots of Hogan on his back. I'm not surprised.
In other news, I finally got to see the Bret/Shawn Rivalry DVD via Netflix. Wow, really good stuff on there.
holy shit it's on there!?
add to que*
oh wow the new Stone Cold, Rock dvds are on there too.
Ladders Matches and King of the Ring also added.

I'm using my hour-long lunch breaks to watch all the new WWE content on Netflix. It's great to have it all so close. WWE's documentary team is REALLY good, too - I love their work. The Orton doc was actually a lot better than I expected. Good stuff.
Yup, they just added these to Netflix:
-Bret vs. Shawn
-Orton documentary
-New Rock documentary
-New Stone Cold documentary
-King of the Ring
-Ladder Match II

If you were a big wrestling fan back then, you'll shed a tear at the end of it as well. Especially once Bret gets into detail about how much shit he had happen in his life from Montreal until he finally reconciled with Vince and Shawn. Really eye opening stuff.
Yeah I'm going through his book now. Going to take some time for me to finish it.

Matches signed for EVOLVE 12 & EVOLVE 13!
EVOLVE 12 - May 11th
Evolution's End
AR Fox (2-1) vs. Sami Callihan (3-4)
The Challenge Has Been Answered
Fit Finlay (2-0) vs. Jon Davis (1-1)
Pick Your Partner Tag Team Match
Johnny Gargano & Samuray Del Sol vs. Chuck Taylor & Silas Young
EVOLVE 13 - May 12th
Open The Freedom Gate Title Match
Johnny Gargano defends vs. winner of Three-Way Match
Three-Way Match - Winner Gets Title Match That Night
AR Fox (2-1) vs. Jigsaw (1-0) vs. Samuray Del Sol (0-1)
Bonus Main Event
EVOLVE Wins & Best Record Leader Chuck Taylor (7-3) vs. Sami Callihan (3-4)
The 'Evolution Ends' match is a new concept and, like ROH's 'Fight Without Honor', is meant to be the end to a feud - wins and losses will still count to the competitors records, and inside the ring all normal EVOLVE rules will apply, however; outside of the ring there are no rules and before the match the opponents are allowed to place weapons around the ring for their use.
Fox vs Callihan, Finlay vs Davis & Callihan vs Taylor should all be awesome, definitely in for both these shows (although I'll probably be watching ROH's show live on the 12th).
This Christmas it seems;
“Yes, @mikethemiz you ARE awesome…as a character in my new children’s book, in which The Miz learns a valuable holiday lesson from @CMPunk”
“Tentative title is “A Most Miz-erable Christmas”. Here’s a sneak peek”

The only thing Hogan's tape is good for is to see how small his balls must be, shake your head, and congratulate yourself on your good decisions in life.

LOL @ Goldberg's theme entrance. It sounded like a song off of the Link to the Past soundtrack.
Years of steroids reduced it to 1.5 inch.
OK, this is really impressive. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLU61kbWl4k

Your liberal use of impressive worries me half as much as these videos.

Those are masks he made! Come on, those look better than what the WWE could do.
Rarely really.

SoulPlaya is boarding on PopGAF levels of stanning. It was funny the few days, but now I'm starting to worry.

Hopefully they're smart enough to give Punk the ending slot on the show for once.
Not gonna happen, unless he's teaming with Cena... Fuck

Along with HHH, who has inserted himself into this feud for no real reason and will beat both Punk/Y2J at Extreme Rules
Basically HHH will beat both Jericho and Punk in the same night, to become the undisputed Best in the World champion/coo/wrestler/dx member/at anything he does.

I'd forgotten that we haven't gotten the requisite "HHH beats Jericho for no raisin" yet during the current Jericho run.

I'm trying to think of what else is as terrible and predictable as a contract signing in a ring. Aside from Raw itself.

From the last tough enough, which contestants are wrestling? As far in any company? I often see Eric in NWA HOllywood as a heel..
Would watch a cartoon movie of this. Cena must retain elf.This Christmas it seems;

Matt Capiccioni, who was eliminated on the first show iirc, despite being the most experienced wrestler there, still wrestles as Matt Cross or M-Dogg 20 on the indies.
It's like a spit in the face of wrestling, really.

Yeah, it's dumb - but, his 'Very European' gimmick of a suave and cultured Swiss millionaire, is pretty much a European version of Alberto del Rio. The Rugby thing differentiates him, and also allows him to get heat for saying how much better Rugby is than American Football.

I will never understand why you guys hate on Hulk so much. The man has meant so much to the business.
I wish their was a bounty on Cena from Brock to put him put legit.

Hulk is the man, but you're weird so I cant say I can mark out on Hulkster with you
