When an orange female oompa loompa getting pregnant is national news, then there is little hope WWE can be good. The whole fucking world is gone to shit anyway.

That orange female oompa loompa was able to run the ropes better in a single match than Kelly Kelly has in her ENTIRE SIX YEAR CAREER.

 

[Cagey]

This is factually correct. Hence I must conclude that Kane is a shiny thing.


They even want Teddy Long back in power because he's Teddy Long. They actually think Teddy was good at his job. So funny!

All kidding aside, Vince likes his crowds to be trained sheep and mindless seals who won't object to which musclebound freak he tells them is great and should be over. Problem is, because they're so programmed you have to put concerted effort into telling them what's good and what's not and because Vince is both A) lazy and B) changes his mind all the time to swerve Internet smarks this leads to an uninvested audience that will ONLY respond to the ingrained status quo.

But what's fascinating is this: Daniel Bryan got so over with the fans in terms of live audience reaction that, by extension, he boosted ADR up (SI!). Why? Because the first RAW after WM28 was in front of the best possible crowd imaginable: a loud, vocal, engaged one. Mark or "smart mark" or whatever, if the crowd is electric, it doesn't matter what their classification is. You've got the Lil' Jimmies chanting NO! at Bryan, in large part, because of what happened on the RAW after WM28... and again in London.

A city full of the inbred mongoloids that Keyser fears is fine if they're loud as hell.

You wonder whether the WWE should stack its yearly schedule such that it tours the best cities possible all in a crucial two-three month span (post-WM? I don't know the answer, others would know better than me), then carry the momentum built from playing to loud lively audiences "on the road" to places like Greensboro, NC for two months, and then repeat the cycle.

In essence, crowds training other crowds.

Interesting, King Mo will be wrestling for TNA and fighting for Bellator full time. I'm curious as to how that works out.

 

[RBH]

Spike TV Prez Kevin Kay announce that Lawal will join TNA this summer and Bellator next year when BFC moves to Spike.

Dixie Carter says she has been vocal over the last couple years to get a crossover star like Mo to TNA.

No entrance music for Mo. Sad. He says he's speechless and calls this a "dream come true." If you know Mo, he's being dead serious.

Mo says he isn't all that experienced in wrestling. Had a tryout back in the day and trained at OVW w/ Mark Henry and John Morrison.

Mo says he will enter the 205 tourney, win the tourney and "get that belt." Given the current competition, that's a pretty safe bet.

Mo on a return to Zuffa: The door is closed. I'm not going to wait. The Bellator deal is the best deal you could possibly get.

Bjorn: This is the first of a lot of synergy between TNA and Bellator under the Spike umbrella.

Dixie: We're going to be playing out his real life role on TNA. So when he's preparing for a fight, that'll be a part of the storylines.

Mo non-committal when asked whether he would campaign to get Rampage in Bellator. He reminds us that he could meet him in a TNA ring too.

Mo wouldn't disclose the terms of the deal but says it's for a very long time. He sounds very happy. What a difference a month makes.

Spike prez Kevin Kay says they haven't decided what day Bellator will air on Spike or whether it will air on the same night as TNA.

Kane takes over another part of GAF.

BTW, that's actually really smart by Spike. It'll all be in the execution, but it's one of the few things that I've seen that may actually help TNA.

 

[Kyoufu]

Hahaha

That is the best one.

 

[Kaladin]

Bellator should air the same night as TNA, it's the best way to get both audiences to watch both programs.

"That's too much work. Let's just pre-tape RAW early and pipe in our own crowd reactions."

Listening to the new Bruno WO Radio now, great stuff.

Just a lurker here, but all this brings to mind one question: What happens if TNA builds him up to be a monster.... and then he loses his first fight in Bellator badly?

Not going to matter because he's got enough charisma that he'll get over either way.

John Cena is worth over $18 million.

Well I doubt that Bellator would book him to lose right off the bat.

 

[RBH]

Tampa resident and WWE superstar John Cena has filed for divorce from his high school sweetheart and wife of only 3 years, Liz Huberdeau, saying the marriage is "irretrevably broken." The soon-to-be-ex-Mrs.Cena has armed herself with powerful Miami attorney Raymond Rafool, best known for going head to head with Hulk Hogan in his nasty divorce battle against ex-wife Linda. In that case, Rafool allegedly took Hogan for 70% of his assets. Huberdeau hopes for something similar, but it's not going to be easy. Cena, worth over $18 million, has a 2009 prenup that is said to include the ability to take back all gifts and presents.

That stipulation has forced the soon-to-be-ex to hire Rafool, who told us "Although it is indeed unfortunate that John Cena decided to divorce his high school sweetheart Liz Cena; particularly, after they have come so far in their lives and in his career together, Liz will and really has no choice but to pursue all of her rights and entitlements. Although Mr. Cena pushes a prenuptial agreement and that the parties have only been married for approximately 3 years, Liz Cena has always supported John Cena, even when no one else did, and stood behind him and pushed him forward to achieve their goals for the last 14 years. Sadly, divorce is not the way Liz thought her perfect love story would end."

Another insider warns that this isn't going to be pretty, saying "This is going to dwarf the Hogan divorce in nastiness." Yikes.

From the sound of the press conference, Bellator is putting him in the 205 tournament which he should win easily.

 

[Perspicacity]

I guess she finally saw the footage of him making out with Eve.

Cena getting a divorce?

Maybe he should have taken a few weeks off after Extreme Rules and tried a last ditch attempt to fix things up.


I can see how his inability to take time off could really stress things at home.



The guy hasn't really been off the road since that time he return from injury at the rumble a few years ago.


Edit.


Another insider warns that this isn't going to be pretty, saying "This is going to dwarf the Hogan divorce in nastiness." Yikes.

I wonder what that could mean.......


Damn Cena's home life has been pretty crazy the last few years. His brother gets cancer and I guess his marriage was a mess.

Jesus H Christ. TAKE TIME OFF YOU STUPID MAN.

Smart that Cena got a prenup. Also, wow Linda took 70% of Hulk's money. No wonder the poor guy is still going.

Oh yeah, obligatory.

 

[RBH]

Just a lurker here, but all this brings to mind one question: What happens if TNA builds him up to be a monster.... and then he loses his first fight in Bellator badly?

I thought about that possibility as well. It looks like he'll debut in TNA in the summer and then debut for Bellator in January next year when they move to Spike. I guess the thinking is that they'll build him up between now and January so that a potential loss in his first Bellator fight would not be as damaging as it would be if he debuted in both TNA and Bellator around the same time.

 

[Kyoufu]

That's what happens when you're a workaholic.

He should just marry Eve or someone on the road with him.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Wait, if he's the one that filed for divorce, I wonder what she did.

 

[RBH]

Mo, Dixie and Bjorn will be on MMA Uncensored on Spike tonight and Mo will be on Bellator tomorrow night on MTV2.

http://twitter.com/#!/arielhelwani/status/200662929970970624

 

[Kaladin]

I probably will start watching Bellator regularly when they move to Spike. The main reason I don't watch it now is because I don't get an HD feed of MTV2 and the SD feed is so crappy.

 

[Cagey]

Someone in the locker room.

Nice.

 

[Nocturnowl]

Cena only has time for one mistress now, his one true love, the WWE universe.

Damn that sounds like a Cena promo he would actually do if this was acknowledged on tv for some reason.

 

[funkystudent]

Wait John was the one who filed for the divorce.

So when will the new "NEVER GIVE UP! (expect on your marriage)" shirts be out?

 

[Chamber]

I don't think you're quite grasping the level of competition in Bellator.

We need Jericho to feud with him and call him out on exactly that.

Prenup? He should be fine.

Cena wants to be able to do more than just hug fat girls if you know what I mean.

He wants to have sex with them, like he says he used to.

Get it?

It is hard because there are several storylines in which knowing wtf they are saying would make more sense and in turn, make the show funnier.
