Former WWE Ref Holding Seminar, Foley Comedy Review, WWE 2K14 Trends Worldwide

-The Dallas Observer website recently published a review of the recent comedy performance by WWE Hall Of Famer Mick Foley in their city. Fans interested in checking out that article can do so online at DallasObserver.com.

-The term “#WWE2K14” trended number one overall on Twitter for a decent amount of time on Monday afternoon.

SESCOOPS.COM reader Joe Dombrowski sent along the following:

REFEREE SEMINAR SCHEDULED WITH FORMER WWE OFFICIAL JIMMY KORDERAS!

The professional wrestling referee is sometimes a lost or overlooked art in our industry. With the attention and spotlight firmly on the athletes performing in-ring, oftentimes its easy to dismiss the importance of an announcer, manager, or especially a referee in regards to the overall puzzle being put together. However, a bad referee can make a good match stink and make an ok match great just by knowing what to do, when, why, and how.

Now, in a very rare opportunity, legendary WWE referee Jimmy Korderas will open up about the ins and outs, rights and wrongs, subtleties and nuances of being a professional wrestling referee in a special seminar on Saturday afternoon, October 19 at 2pm at the IWC’s Iron City Wrestling Acadamy, just south of Pittsburgh, PA. Cost for the seminar is only $20 and is open to both current independent wrestling referees and referees in training.

Jimmy Korderas’ WWE career spans 22 years and thousands of marquee matches viewed by millions of people. Starting on the bottom in the 1980s, officiating WWF Live Events in the Ontario region, through hard work and perseverance, Jimmy worked his way up to the main event of WrestleMania, and was even specifically requested by both The Undertaker and Edge to officiate their main event World Championship match at WrestleMania 24. Whether it was being nearly set on fire by Kane, or “crossing the picket lines” during the infamous WWF referees strike angle of 1999, Korderas has seen, experienced, and taken part in nearly every wild and memorable scenario possible during his lengthy WWE tenure, and performed his job with dignity and honor through all the chaos.

During this seminar, you’ll be able to work out in-ring with, as well as speak to Jimmy, as he will stress referee psychology, what to do, and more importantly what not to do. You’ll learn proper conduct, what your role actually is in the course of a match, the correct way to interact with the in-ring talent (both in the ring and in the locker room), proper ring positioning, relaying information to the talent, how to recognize serious and legitimate injuries, what WWE looks for when scouting potential referee hirees, a Q&A session to address any specific concerns or queries and much more! There are so few opportunites for independent wrestling referees to learn from someone who has done it in any of the top companies, but now you can learn how to do things like the best of the best do! This is the first time Jimmy has done anything like this in the United States, and who knows when you’ll get this opportunity again!

TNA star Austin Aries was recently interviewed by Mike Mooneyham of The Post and Courier and spoke about never getting the opportunity to work for WWE:

“I don’t worry about that. They’ve had opportunities to sign me, and for whatever reason or measuring stick they were using, they didn’t see fit to give me an opportunity. I don’t know all the ins and outs of those decisions, and I don’t really dwell on it.”

He also commented on Hulk Hogan’s departure from TNA:

“Hogan is doing whatever’s good for Hogan … just like he’s done his whole career and just like he should continue to do. And if that means staying with TNA, great. If that means going to some other venture, then I wish him all the luck.”

Jim Ross Blog: The Finish To Orton vs. Bryan, Rhodes Family vs. The Shield

WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross has updated his blog at JRsBarBQ.com with his thoughts on last night’s WWE Battleground pay-per-view. Here are some highlights of what JR wrote about

The Main Event Finish: Controversy abounds following the WWE PPV Battle Ground Sunday night in Buffalo. Many fans hitting me on Twitter @JRsBBQ with ample venom regarding the finish of the show. Obviously, it was a way to continue a storyline between Bryan and Orton. Pro wrestling creative is more subjective today that ever in my lifetime. Like most theatrical productions that I watch, I enjoyed some aspects of the PPV and wasn’t as enthralled with some of the other content.

The Rhodes Family vs. The Shield The payoff on the personal issue involving the Rhodes clan and the Shield, representing the establishment, was spot on in my view. The spotlight was on Cody Rhodes as it should have been. Now, let’s see where it goes from here and if Cody evolves into the main event level superstar that many feel he is capable of doing.

Loved the post match nuance of the stars, both old and new, congratulating the Rhodes family. Plus, I got the one, Bionic Elbow that I was hoping for from the Dream. There is no doubt that Goldust can still contribute in today’s WWE at least for the short term IE through WM30.

-Former WWE Diva Torrie Wilson has officially signed a new endorsement deal with Phenix Salon Products. The following is the official press release with more details on the deal:

Phenix Salon Products Signs Celebrity Spokesperson, Model and Entertainer, Torrie Wilson

Phenix Salon Products is pleased to announce a new endorsement deal with former WWE Wrestling Diva, fitness model and spokesperson, Torrie Wilson. Phenix Salon Suites is the fastest growing “Salon Suite” company in the beauty industry, with over 1500 Salon Professionals nationwide. The company works in 43 existing locations now, with an additional 65 locations that are planned to open in 2014. The founders of Phenix Salon Suites, Jason and Gina Rivera, are releasing their new Phenix Salon products in early 2014.

According to the CEO of Phenix Salon Products, Jason Rivera, Wilson’s background in modeling, fitness and the entertainment industry provides the perfect blend for promoting the company’s product line and culture. Wilson, who began her career as a Miss Galaxy winner and model, went on to become one of the most well-known wrestling divas in the history of the WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment). For nine years, Wilson appeared regularly on shows such as Smackdown, Monday Night Raw and Wrestlemania. Her name and image have graced thousands of posters, shirts and promotional items created by the WWE.

Wilson has also appeared on multiple magazine covers including Maxim, FHM, Raw, Muscle & Fitness, Curves, Ironman, Divas, Pump and Muscle Planet. In 2007 Wilson was listed on FHM’s “100 Sexiest Women in the World” list.

“I am so excited to be teaming up with Phenix! As the ultimate beauty junkie, joining forces with a company who represents the hair and beauty industry with such class and cutting-edge sophistication is quite an honor,” said Wilson. “I am also honored to be representing this fantastic new line of products that is going to blow people away!”

Wilson was featured in music videos including Timbaland’s video, “Throw It On Me,” and Lilian Garcia’s music video, “U Drive Me Loca.” Beyond the WWE, she appeared on Project Runway, and in the NBC reality show, I’m a Celebrity…Get Me out of Here!, where she won second place.

“We are honored to have Torrie Wilson as part of the Phenix Family! Torrie embodies the Phenix Culture and what our company is about,” said Rivera. “Her enthusiasm for beauty and style parallels the strong family tradition of the Phenix brand that has spanned over 84 years.”

“We are excited to release our signature product, “Ash by Phenix,” in the next few months, and Torrie will be a great spokesperson for this product!”

Phenix Salon Products was founded by a family with more than two dozen hair stylists in the immediate family tree. Since 1929, Phenix has created salons that are home for thousands of salon professionals across the country.

On every Phenix Salon Product, there is a small ribbon with the caption “Love You Mom.” A portion of the proceeds from each product sold goes to cancer research in honor of the mother of co-founder Gina Rivera, who passed away of pancreatic cancer.

The much anticipated release of “Ash by Phenix is scheduled for January, 2014. The Vintage Volume Lifter is a specifically formulated, dry volume lifter that is pumped into the hair shaft by an atomizer for complete distribution. The scientific formula creates a tremendous amount of volume in the hair. This product has been years in the making and will be the first of its kind in the United States. “We have tested Ash by Phenix in some of our salons across the US and the buzz and excitement is out. We have customers who can’t wait for this product, which is currently in production,” said Rivera.

Phenix Salon Products has set up a temporary site at Shoplocket to take pre-orders of “Ash by Phenix.” For more information, please visit https://www.shoplocket.com/products/AevBH-phenix-salon-products

Mickie James Speaks On Her TNA Status, Pay Issues In TNA, Total Divas & More

Matt Boone

The following are highlights from a recent RVA Magazine interview with former TNA Knockout and WWE Diva Mickie James:

On her TNA Impact Wrestling status: “I can’t really speak on my status right now. Honestly though, I’m not technically under contract with them right now. As far as TNA itself, I wasn’t at the last TV so I can’t speak on that. The company is in the midst of change obviously and that process of changing over.”

On recent changes and pay issues in TNA: “They’ve gone live on the road and they just brought in this new head of talent [John Gaburick] who was with WWE for twenty years or so. I feel like there’s good energy around it, but in the midst of change, people get scared and there’s a bit of that as well. It’s hard to really say. There were rumors and speculation about late paychecks, but my paycheck was never late. It’s not untrue though; I do know that was an issue with some of the people.”

On how the WWE Divas division has changed over the years: “Honestly, when I came in, there was still that Golden Era of Women’s wrestling for WWE. There was Trish [Stratus] and Lita there to legitimately pass that torch of credibility. They were genuine wrestling athletes. They weren’t just characters or beautiful women. They could go in there, wrestle like the men, kick serious ass, and hold that spot. I was very fortunate to have that coming in and be in that transitional phase. As they were leaving, it was myself, Melina, Beth Phoenix; all the girls that kind of grew up on the Indy scene. We all kind of came in that same way, that grass roots kind of way. We fought and clawed our way up the Indy scene to try and make a name for ourselves and build credibility just so WWE would take a look at us in the first place.”

On the WWE Total Divas reality show: “I don’t think that there’s anyone there who legitimately has had that torch passed to them in a way so that’s the main difference to me. There are obviously legit wrestlers like Nattie and I think Alicia Fox is great. I think it’d be great for someone to come in and take that division to a whole new level. I’m not sitting here burying those girls though because obviously they’re on TV, doing a great job, and they have the Divas reality show. I think that show is awesome because it’s giving depth to those characters that you wouldn’t necessarily know anything about other than they are great wrestlers. You don’t know anything about their personal lives and it’s kind of opening that door to get people more emotional invested into them. But yeah, I think having someone pass the torch would be great for those girls.”

The infamous Reddit user, Dolphins1925, again had an impressive series of predictions for Sunday’s WWE Battleground event. Dolphins predicted victories for Dolph Ziggler, Alberto Del Rio, Curtis Axel, AJ Lee, The Rhodes Family, Bray Wyatt and CM Punk, all of whom won their matches at Sunday’s pay-per-view.

Where things got interesting was the WWE Championship main event between Randy Orton and Daniel Bryan. Dolphins predicted Orton would win, but also noted that there would be a “twist to the match.”

According to one source, WWE may have swerved their employees on the finish of the match specifically because of the recent gambling situation and PPV leaks issue, informing them only of the storyline plan for Big Show to knockout Bryan to assist Orton in victory.

What happened after that is anyone’s guess, but some claim WWE only informed a select few who were actually going to be physically involved in the match that Big Show would also be knocking out Orton, leading to the non-finish everyone saw at the end of the show.
