WWE actually gives a warning to the live audience before the show to not throw anything in the ring, otherwise they would sue you to the fullest extent of the law.

Do they?
Always wondered why we never saw as much garbage tossing in WWE than we did in WCW / TNA / ECW and pretty much every wrestling organisation ever.

Kazuki Hashimoto's one of my favourite young wrestlers in Japan at the moment - he's far from the complete package as of yet, but shows a TON of fire and attitude and, much like Shibata, is a pretty brutal striker;

He's not a perfect replacement for the much more experienced and travelled Daisuke, but Kim Ray should be a good opponent for Kazuki. I imagine it'll be a fairly hard-hitting sort of match. Here's a good highlight video of some his stuff;

I was there for the Christmas taping last month, and that's pretty much what they said over the mic. I was surprised myself.
I have no idea for how long they've been giving these warnings though.

Opinion:
The Diva Search has given far more to the WWE in terms of talent than Tough Enough

Now that I think about it maybe the accident with Droz probably got WWE to have a zero tolerance policy to fans tossing anything into the ring.
I really cant think of many cases of people tossing stuff at someone in WWF/E.

So this weeks Impact was pretty much just a set up for next week... Not cool. I was actually looking forward for Roode vs Angle, I'll have to wait I guess.
But as far as teases go it wasn't that bad, the ending promo was cool and there are some seeds to future storylines.
The matches themselves were not good, Anderson is out of shape and EC3 vs Sting was only passable.
Next week should be better.

Tough Enough gave us former and future world champions Mike "The Miz" Mizanin and Ryan "The Ryback" Reeves
So yeah you're right
Ok that does looks promising. It will be interesting to see what other card changes there will be tomorrow. They already said they will change some stuff around and we will learn about it at the show.
Lol, I did the same thing even after the egg was pointed out. Took until this post before I saw it.
Tough Enough gave us Puder submitting Angle tho.
Glad I'm not alone.
For anyone who follows me on Twitter, and you really shouldn't, I've been going through old Rumbles (currently finishing 2008)
And just dawned on me that Big Show vs Brock Lesnar is a rematch from Royal Rumble that we had 11 years ago... even has Paul Heyman.
And... why does Big Show have such longevity!

I am pretty sure that has been pointed out before. I don#t know why anyone would want to see that again.

Those crowds put WWE to shame, they were so special. I went to 4-5 live events during its hayday, and I can tell you It was some of the best times I ever had. It was like being in a mob.

Big Show was the first person to beat Brockaw Lesnar
No one wants to see it again
Not even sure why wasting a costly Brock appearance on this feud.
I think Mark Henry vs Brock Lesnar would have at least been new.
This is really a card being held together by the Rumble... which isn't that intriguing right now
Watching some old Raw matches, and came across this promo again: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4sxQ5N-lag
This was to hype Triple H's return after his injury in 2001. WWE made some good hype videos back then. Now that I think about it, it's such a strange way to hype a heel's return, but then he was extremely over as a face when he initially returned. And jacked. This was best Triple H. 2000-2001 Triple H. Jimmy Hit me with that Triple H, Triple H.
I also just saw this Batista return video. I'm now 100% sure Batista is winning the Royal Rumble to face Lesnar for the title at Wrestlemania. If this turns out wrong, I will take my shovel to everyone. No mercy.

Not only would it have been new but might have also been entertaining. Hell I would have taken a David vs Goliath booking. But Bryan in there with Lesnar. No title would be on the line, it's interesting and you would have two over guys in a match. if you give me some time I could probably come with lots of other stuff that would be more interesting that booking Lesnar with Big Show.

I just don't want Lesnar jobbing to crapTista. We all know that match is bound to happen at mania and they will job Brock out again.
Can you blame them? He does so few dates that you can#t really have him end a feud with a win. At least not as a heel.

They literally did that with him for HHH and Punk, no?
He's 3-2.
He needs to be 3-3. Balance must be restored. It's how the universe operates.

Uh except they've done that before?
I still think they should just give him the title. It'd be refreshing to have a champion refuse to even go on Smackdown and only show up to Raw whenever he feels like it because hes the champion and he can do whatever the fuck he wants.
I don#t know. Started watching again int he Summer, but if I was responsible for the booking it's what I would do.

Brock needs to win the title and rename the WWE universe to WWE Brockverse
I don't want that loser Batista anywhere near a Mania main event, I kinda wanna see Bryan vs Lesnar but there's no way they'd do that
Really, it should have been Lesnar vs. Orton at the Royal Rumble. This is where Lesnar could win the title. Cena should have been in the Royal Rumble match. Then at Elimination Chamber, we could've had Lesnar defend his title against Cena, Orton, Bryan, Punk and Kane/Big Show/Henry.
At least Lesnar vs. Orton would be interesting just to see how they mesh in the ring. Cena vs. Orton has happened so many times. I don't think I remember Lesnar and Orton ever facing off. Orton was even more of a curtain jerker back during the time of Lesnar Prime.
I will take this all back if Lesnar is in the actual Royal Rumble match. His only match at the PPV can't be with Big Show. I refuse to believe that could be the case.

Lol Trips using that best for....I dig his Ken Masters look!!!
Also Bautista shoulda listened to Teddy Long. His career would have sky rocketed
That would come with the added bonus of more Paul Heyman every week. Just have Brock say he won't accept someone as a challenger unless they can put together a string of 10 wins or something. That might at least make it look like there is some competition to get to the top of the card.

Kofi's 1/5 of the way there . Once in a life time. !!!
He ended up winning over H's at Extreme Rules, so he "got his win back". And the Punk feud was really between Heyman and Punk, so that was dumb.
Thank Godzilla because it would be terrible for Wrestlemania. Maybe at another PPV. If not Batista at Wrestlemania, they should put Lesnar in there with Undertaker.
I just checked my Chinese calendar. I can confirm: 2014 Year of the Wildcat.
Lesnar vs Taker would be interesting, except for the fact that Lesnar is way too physical and would probably kill him
Nowinski?
That's part of why it's interesting to me. I want to see how Undertaker copes with the physicality. It could create an awesome match.

Tough Enough gave us the Miz and that was awesome.
Bring back King of the Ring, let the King give up his crown for a title shot or something.
Comes off as too MITB-ish though.

wasting Lesnar with Taker would be a mistake. they won't even come close to topping their HIAC match.

Sting vs john cena. Can't wait for sting to pass the toarch via baseball bat
John Morrison won Season 3.
He did?
