Paul Heyman To Make The “Announcement Of A Lifetime” On RAW

8

Paul Heyman posted the following video on Tout on Monday evening, promising the “announcement of a lifetime” at the start of tonight’s WWE RAW:

SmackDown Does A Strong Rating, War Games At Elimination Chamber?

22

– Friday’s 2/8 edition of WWE SmackDown scored a big 2.16 rating with 3.19 million viewers, up approximately 7% from the week before. This was the best overall viewership for a first-run Friday night Smackdown in a full year (2/10/12). SmackDown ranked #3 on cable for the night.

Meanwhile, The Rock’s 2007, “Game Plan,” which went head-to-head with SmackDown on the Disney Channel, drew 4.22 million viewers.

– Following Ryback’s Monday afternoon tweet that The Shield will be serviced justice this Sunday “inside the chamber,” PWInsider.com reports that the match will in fact take place inside the Elimination Chamber. This would be the first time a six-man tag match has taken place inside the Chamber.

The report suggests the match will be held under traditional “War Games” rules, where the match starts with two competitors in the ring and at each interval, a new superstar (from either team) enters the match. This typically results in one of the teams having more men in the ring, which adds to the chaos of the match.

– Daniel Bryan tweeted the following on Monday about WrestleMania 29:

– Ryback tweeted the following about his 6-man tag match at Elimination Chamber this Sunday:

https://twitter.com/Ryback22/status/301056234319134720

Ryback teams up with John Cena & Sheamus against The Shield. Ryback’s comment about being justice being delivered “in the chamber” implies the 6-man tag will be an Elimination Chamber match, a stipulation that we will probably see announced tonight on RAW.

CM Punk Calls The Pope A Nazi On Twitter

104

Not one to back down from making controversial tweets, WWE Superstar CM Punk is at it again. In response to the news that Catholic Pope Benedict XVI is stepping down due to health issues related to his advanced age (85), Punk re-tweeted a message from a fan who wrote, “The pope resigned? I did nazi that coming.” and called the joke “Magic.”

Another fan replied Punk’s tweet, writing, “Ouch. That’s an envelope-pushing tweet for a company employee…” Punk fired back:

https://twitter.com/cmpunk/status/301061459440463872

Punk has since replied to another fan, telling him to “unfollow” him if he takes issue with what he has to say.

Pope Benedict has been criticized for his involvement in the “Hitler Youth” program in Nazi Germany during the late 1930’s. The Pope has defended his participation in the group, saying that all all children growing up in Germany at the time had no choice but to swear their allegiance to the fascist leader.

The historical facts are what they are … but one has to question one of WWE’s top superstars explicitly stating the “Pope was a Nazi” on Twitter ..

Heat On The Miz For CM Punk’s Injury Scare? RAW DVR Issue for Tonight

28

– Several readers have sent in word that their cable providers’ TV guides are listing tonight’s RAW as 3 separate shows (each hour being displayed individually, instead of one 3-hour block). This will cause issues with fans attempting to DVR tonight’s show. So far, we’ve heard Comcast, RCN and Charter are experiencing the issue.

** If you DVR RAW, double check that you have the whole show set to record!

– According to WWE sources, CM Punk was definitely banged up at Saturday night’s WWE live event from Springfield, Missouri when The Miz botched a suplex and nearly dropped Punk directly on his head. It’s not believed that Punk suffered a concussion, but it was a nasty bump that could have aggravated some other issues Punk has been dealing with. He’s expected to work tonight’s RAW and for those wondering, there does not appear to be any heat on The Miz following the incident.

G4 Network Re-Branded & How It Affects WWE, OVW Stars Who Changed WWE

5

WWE.com has launched a photo gallery of “The Kids from OVW that Changed WWE.” Ohio Valley Wrestling, once the developmental territory of WWE, produced some of the industry’s top performers, including John Cena, Brock Lesnar, Randy Orton & Batista. OVW is now the developmental system for TNA.

WWE.com has also published a top 10 list of the most dateable Superstars & Divas.

– NBC Universal announced on Monday that they are partnering with Esquire Magazine to re-brand their G4 cable network. The new “Esquire Channel” will launch soon as “an upscale Bravo for men.” The news is relevant to the wrestling world because as recently as last summer, WWE was interested in purchasing G4 in hopes of re-branding it as the WWE Network. One of WWE’s biggest hurdles in launching the WWE Network has been getting clearances from cable companies – and acquiring G4 would have helped with that.

As noted over the weekend, satellite provider DirecTV is surveying their subscribers regarding the launch of a new premium, subscription-based WWE Network that would run original programming, classic footage and all live WWE pay-per-views except for WrestleMania.

At one point, the UFC was also interested in buying G4 to launch their own network.

Chicago TNA Impact Tickets Selling Well, Latest TNA Reaction Video

10

– With TNA Wrestling gearing up for next month’s March 14h episode of Impact Wrestling from Hoffman Estates, Illinois (just outside of Chicago), ticket sales for the show are going strong. The seats that were going for $73, $43 and $23 are all sold out.

There are still tickets available for $13, as well as VIP Suite seating ($125), which includes a pre-show meet and greet with TNA wrestlers. It’s possible more seats will go on sale as it gets closer to the event, but this is a good sign for TNA.

Impactwrestling.com has announced that TNA is teaming up with Machinima Sports to feature the newly re-launched “TNA Reaction” show as part of the MachinimaSports YouTube channel. The first episode, which you can view below, looks at TNA’s recent UK tour:

Roddy Piper Talks About His Son Joining WWE, Who Would Play Him In A Movie About His Life & More

8

WWE Hall of Famer Roddy Piper was recently interviewed by fan questions on WrestleNewz.com. Here are some highlights of what he said about:

His Son Colt Wrestling & If He’ll Ever Join WWE:

“There’s always the question whether a wrestler has “it.” What “it” is — that’s never defined, because there’s not a better word for it. Call it chemistry, call it charisma: there are different ways to describe it. But whatever “it” is, Colt has it. He’s a natural. Now comes the question of what Colt decides to do with it. I’m trying to mostly stay away from it. His name is Colt Toombs. He is undefeated as an MMA fighter as an amateur, and he always fights under his real name, Toombs. He’s making his own headway, on his own terms, with his own name. And I’m extremely proud of him. He is wrestling in a league called Portland Wrestling Uncut, and various groups. He was supposed to wrestle Daivari in Santiago, Chile, but unfortunately the show got canceled because they couldn’t provide the proper security. He’s doing great, though. I don’t want to give away any of his future plans. But you won’t miss him! He’ll be coming at you, oh yeah.”

WWE Stars With The Most Potential & Who He’d Want To Wrestle:

“Of the current generation? Oh my goodness, they’re all fantastic. Randy Orton, CM Punk, Jericho — I don’t want to leave anybody out. Cody Rhodes is great. So many guys nowadays are fantastic, so I can’t pick just one! But who would I want to have a match with? (Long pause) Brock Lesnar.”

Who Will Play Him In The Movie About His Life?

“Mark Wahlberg. He’s already been approached. I’m telling you, they have a script already. You know, my head’s just not there right now. But there are definitely two scripts that I know of. One is by Sal (Iacono), the head writer for the Jimmy Kimmel show. And there’s another one that I know of, and Mark Wahlberg is the man they were talking about for that. And I think that he’d be a good pick.”

More On Bruno Sammartino Movie In The Works, New SmackDown Theme

5

– Friday’s SmackDown saw the debut of a new theme song for the show, which is “Born 2 Run” by the band 7Lions.

– With Bruno Sammartino back in the fold with WWE, talks have intensified between WWE Studios’ Muchael Luisi and movie producers for theplanned Bruno Sammartino feature film.

While no deal has been finalized, a script, written by Scott Rosenfelt and Paul Guay, has already been completed that spans Bruno’s life from 1943 when the Nazis took over Pizaferato, Italy through 1995.

Another CM Punk Injury Update, Ziggler & AJ Doing Media In Nashville

25

– As noted earlier, CM Punk suffered an injury scare in a spot with The Miz at Saturday’s live event. While Punk insists he’s fine and did wrestle the following night, there is concern within WWE that the situation could be worse than he’s letting on and he could be hiding an injury because he doesn’t want to miss any time during WrestleMania season.

– Dolph Ziggler and AJ Lee are doing media today in Nashville to promote RAW. Ziggler tweeted on Monday morning:

– Rosa Mendes, Primo and Epico will be appearing at the Metro PCS store in Kalamazoo, Michigan on March 2nd at 3pm.

Maybe he’s just a big fan of the Nashville Predators NHL hockey team, but WWE superstar The Undertaker was spotted at last night’s Predator game, the site of tonight’s WWE RAW.

The Undertaker has been off WWE television since the RAW 1,000 special back in July and is rumored to be wrestling CM Punk at WrestleMania 29. There have been conflicting reports as to whether the Dead Man will be able to compete due to his health.

While backstage at the game, Undertaker snapped a picture with the Predators mascot as well as two ladies:

RAW Preview (Nashville, TN): Rock, Jericho, Henry & More

7

Tonight’s episode of WWE RAW takes place from the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee.

WWE Champion The Rock will be at RAW to confront his Elimination Chamber opponent at Sunday’s Elimination Chamber pay-per-view, former champion CM Punk.

Brock Lesnar had been advertised for the show, but was removed from the “superstars scheduled to appear” list in the past week. WWE is still teasing whether anybody can control Lesnar, but that doesn’t mean he’ll be there in person.

After a hard fought loss to CM Punk last week, Chris Jericho will be in the house tonight.

No matches have been announced for the show as of Monday morning.

WWE is focusing on the following points for tonight:

* A final confrontation between The Rock & CM Punk

* Can anyone control Brock Lesnar?

* Mark Henry is back on the scene and ready to dish out pain.

* Which returning Superstar is poised for a big 2013?

* John Cena, Sheamus and Ryback’s struggle with The Shield continues.

The advertised dark match main event will see John Cena and Ryback teaming up against CM Punk and Dolph Ziggler.

Pictures Of The Miz Dumping CM Punk On His Head

87

As noted earlier, CM Punk had an injury scare at Saturday night’s WWE RAW live event from Springfield, Missouri after The Miz botched a stalled suplex and nearly dropped Punk directly on his head. Punk rolled out of the ring where he was checked out by WWE officials for several minutes before finishing the match.

According to a live correspondent who was at Sunday night’s WWE RAW live event from Cape Girardeau, CM Punk wrestled in the tag team main event, showed no signs of injury and even took hard bumps during the match. Thankfully, this looks like Saturday night’s incident was simply a close call for Punk and nothing more.

Here are pictures of the spot that could have gone terribly wrong:

Jim Ross Blogs About Curt Hennig On The 10 Year Anniversary Of His Passing

2

WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross has updated his blog, which you can read in its entirety at JRsBarBQ.com with his thoughts on the late WWE Hall of Famer Curt Hennig on the 10 year anniversary of his passing. Here’s what JR said about Hennig:

“Can’t help but think about Curt Henning aka Mr. Perfect today on the anniversary of his untimely passing. “Perfecto’ was as good a natural athlete as I’ve ever been around in the wrestling biz. Curt starting so young and wrestling so much likely contributed to his lingering back injuries as back ailments are horrific for any performer in the sports entertainment biz. Curt was also one of the funniest guys that I ever worked with on commentary and had legit, natural timing much like a guy he watched while growing up, Bobby ‘The Brain’ Heenan.”

“Curt truly loved life and some could argue that he loved it a little too much at times. Nonetheless I value the relationship that we had and the fun doing WWE voice overs at the Stamford, Ct studios back in the day. Chief Jay Strongbow nicknamed Curt “Dennis the Menace” because of his mischievous demeanor at times.”

“Curt was one of my favorite wrestlers and when he was healthy he could hang with anyone. I am optimistic that his son Joe also know as Michael McGillicutty will be a main event level talent before all is said and done. I’ve seen Joe wrestle a great deal especially down in NXT and he has every thing he needs to be special. It’s all about timing and right place at the right time but I’m confident that Joe will persevere and get to the next level and it could happen in 2013. I’d be surprised if it doesn’t.”

JR also wrote about Bruno Sammartino’s WWE Hall of Fame induction, Mark Henry’s return to WWE television and WWE signing indie talent.

Remembering Mr. Perfect Curt Hennig On The 10th Anniversary Of His Passing

12

WWE Hall of Famer Curt Hennig, best known to many as Mr. Perfect, passed away on this date 10 years ago. A decade later, Hennig is still remembered as one of the most beloved performers of his generation, with his freakish athleticism and rarely-matched technical ability. We’d like to take a moment to acknowledge the the life of Curt Hennig and express gratitude for the many great moments he creative. We also encourage you to comment below and share your favorite memories from his illustrious career.

From his time in the AWA, to the iconic “Mr. Perfect” sports vignettes,  his unforgettable run with the WWF Intercontinental championship, his chemistry with Bobby Heenan and Ric Flair, his “Rap is Crap” antics with WCW’s West Texas Rednecks and his final WWE run that began with a surprise entry in the 2002 Royal Rumble, there was only one Mr. Perfect.

RIP Curt Hennig.

Hennig’s son Joe (WWE superstar Michael McGuillicutty) tweeted the following this afternoon regarding his father:

Here is WWE’s 2007 Hall of Fame induction video for Mr. Perfect:

Tara Talks About Impact Going On The Road, Trish Stratus’ WWE HOF Induction & More

5

TNA Knockout Tara recently spoke to Kevin Kellam of Examiner.com. Here are some highlights of what she said about:

The feeling in TNA with IMPACT going on the road: “Our fans get spoiled and callused. They want to see us draw blood. In Orlando, thank god we are going on the road, our fans in Orlando got a little bit spoiled because they see us every week, but we were out there killing ourselves for entertainment. We are actresses and actors who do our stunts with drama. And when they don’t react to certain things, it’s like my God, what do you want me to do?!”

If it was becoming an issue in Orlando: “Not for like my bosses. It’s just that we feed off the fans, we feed off their reactions. It becomes stale (without those reactions). And now we get to see fresh faces and that’s why it’s nice to go overseas too. I am just excited about going on the road, you have no idea. We don’t want ‘hush hush’ fans. It’s nice to hear everything, I have a problem where I can hear everything in the first couple rows. And if I hear someone cheering for my opponent. I am going to go out there and freaking tell them like it is. I am very fan-interactive. That’s a big part of TNA.”

Trish Stratus being inducted in the WWE Hall of Fame and if she will attend: “Oh she so deserves it! I am going to be honest with you, I wish I could induct her. I was in WWE. I am proud to be a part of WWE history, and now I am with TNA, there is no rivalry between companies for me. I love both companies but I am super proud of her, she deserves it for ‘the Golden era’. She also reached out and called me and said thank you, you helped me be inducted because we had hellacious matches. That’s a true professional, she appreciates who got her there. I would love to be there, but I don’t know how both companies would feel. Honestly, I am super proud. I love her, we are best friends.”

– Independent women’s wrestler “Pryme Tyme” Amy Lee recently did an interview with Kayfabe Wrestling Radio where she criticized WWE for inducting Trish Status into their Hall of Fame before the late Luncha Vachon:

“[Luna] was trained by Moolah, who was someone who’s in your Hall of Fame and you don’t put f–king Luna Vachon in there? God forbid you have her uncle accept on her behalf or her sons to acknowledge her credibility; Oh wait, that’s right, back in 2000 you told her she was a great wrestler but she wasn’t pretty enough for TV, so you fired her. Oh yeah, I forgot that, she wasn’t pretty enough.”

CM Punk Injury Scare At WWE Live Event

53

WWE Superstar CM Punk had an injury scare at Saturday night’s WWE RAW live event from Springfield, Missouri.

Punk wrestled in the tag match main event, teaming up with Antonio Cesaro against The Miz and Ryback. During the match, there was a spot where The Miz delivered a stalling suplex on Punk. Somehow The Miz lost his balance and dropped Punk almost directly on his head. The crowd instantly knew the move did not go as planned, as Punk rolled out of the ring. WWE officials ran over to Punk and checked him out for several minutes.

The match continued and Punk did return to action, but was visibly shaken up and was wrestling at a much slower pace than usual.
