New HQ Videos Of CM Punk Attacking A Fan On RAW

WWE told TMZ.com:

“WWE security was unfortunately not in the appropriate place at the time. Given CM Punk’s persona as a ‘bad guy’ fans were naturally heckling him, but unfortunately a few fans began shoving him and one struck him in the kidney and on the back.”

“WWE regrets that proper security measures were not in place, and CM Punk apologizes for reacting in the heat of the moment.”

WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross has posted a new blog entry, which you can read in its entirety at JRsBarBQ.com. Here are some highlights of what Ross said about:

CM Punk vs. Vince McMahon: “Closing moments of Raw felt like some of the great moments during the Attitude Era. Table destroyed, monitors out, bodies hitting the floor, stiff shots, and a crazed crowd. Great nite at the office .. Mr McMahon was amazing especially at his age and lack of recent ring time. I’m not kissing butt but just stating a fact. @cmpunk is special. Controversial? Yes…but damn special.”

Sheamus vs. Wade Barrett: “Sheamus and Wade a arrest literally beat the hell out of each other much like I’ll see in Dallas Saturday when OU battles Texas .. Second week in a row that Wold Champ Sheamus rose to the occasion, last week it was against Damien Sandow .. Barrett has returned from injury a different man as it relates to aggression & physicality. That mindset will get one places.”

WWE Tag Team Division Picking Up: “WWE tag team biz is becoming viably relevant. Opportunity awaits several duos. Will they realize such and seize the fleeting moment?”

WWE Labels Tensai An “Overhyped Disappointment”, Melina Suffers Injury, Eve Torres Featured, Mick Foley In NJ

– After bursting onto the WWE scene with a monster push in April, the sports-entertainment organization is now publicly tagging Tensai as an “overhyped disappointment.” The veteran wrestler is being labeled as such on his updated WWE.com bio in regards to his multiple losses to Tyson Kidd after going toe-to-toe with John Cena and CM Punk.

WWE states, “Over the following months, Tensai quickly went from intimidating behemoth to overhyped disappointment. Despite impressive outings against John Cena and CM Punk, several frustrating losses to underdog Tyson Kidd led to Tensai assaulting his own associate Sakamoto on the July 30, 2012 edition of Raw. Is this beginning of a new, more focused Tensai? One can only assume that disaster will follow for his opponents until this star from multiple continents fulfills his destiny.”

– Former WWE Diva Melina noted on Twitter Monday that she recently suffered an injury that is preventing her from competing. She did not add further details on the injury.

– WWE Divas Champion Eve is featured in today’s “Superstar Spotlight” on WWE.com.

– Mick Foley will be signing copies of his new children’s book, “A Most Mizerable Christmas,” at Barnes & Noble 425 Marketplace Blvd. Hamilton, New Jersey, today beginning at 6:30 p.m.

As we reported on Monday night just before RAW went on the air, Vince McMahon held a meeting backstage at RAW and removed Brian Gewirtz as the head writer of the show (“Senior Vice President of Creative Writing”). He had held the role for more than a decade.

The new Senior VP of Creative Writing will be Eric Pankowski, who was hired back in February and has been working closely with Stephanie McMahon in recent months.

RAW’s head writer is now David Kapoor, formerly known as Ranjin Singh on WWE television.

SmackDown’s head writer is Ed Koskey. Koskey will be taken off the road to work more from WWE headquarters in Stamford. There has been some negative feedback about Koskey being taken off the road, because he worked very closely with WWE talent and was viewed as “very approachable” for wrestlers looking to share their ideas.

TNA star Hulk Hogan appeared on the Howard Stern radio show on Tuesday morning and as you can imagine, the topic of Hogan’s sex tape came up.

In response to rumors that the woman in the tape was Heather Clem (Bubba The Love Sponge’s estranged wife), Hogan confirmed that it was indeed her.

Hulk said that the tape was filmed 6 years ago, when Hulk’s marriage to Linda was falling apart. After Hulk was getting verbally and emotionally abused by his now ex-wife, Bubba gave Hulk his blessing to “sleep” with Clem.

Hulk admitted that he was an emotional wreck at the time and that his “performance” wasn’t up to par.

Hogan says he’s working with police to find out who released the tape, because he swears he didn’t know he was being recorded.

Hulk vows to press charges against the perpetrator and is working to block the tape’s sale/release.
