Ricky Steamboat Hospitalized
I know wrestling is a unique business but I feel for Ricky if he was injured this way on the job recourse wise.

He reminded me of Wade Kellter on the Ultimate Insider DVDs both the way he looks and how he fielded questions. I was just expecting someone from the Dixie Carter Youshoot.

Ben Miller doesnt look like what I thought a Ben Miller would look like. Him framing the buyrate prediction for UFC 116 as the big hook for the video really annoyed me for some reason.

Crazy how the world works with his DVD just being released. I hope he makes a full recovery.

There is an amusing and interesting interview with Jerry Jarrett conducted by Kenny Bolin: http://whosslammingwho.podomatic.com/ It is annoyingly spilt into four parts comparing modern Wrestling to classic Memphis, the psychology of K-Mart windbreakers among other things.

Not sure but Russo has been blamed for angles he didnt book. Remember Alex Shelley and others aped Jackass for a few shows beginning the PPV Russo was backstage? Everyone blamed him but he didnt start booking until the next IMPACT! Angle started on the third Impact before that PPV. Russo wasn't even announced as returning to the fold until just before the PPV itself, and it was blown off at that PPV. Nobody blamed him for that at the time. I don't know if he's caught some retroactive blame for it, but nobody thought that was his when it was happening. Im fairly sure that he was blamed initially at the time. You're wrong. Angle begins on the 9/7/06 Impact. Russo is rehired on 9/21/06, and is announced as being rehired shortly thereafter. Angle ends at the No Surrender PPV, held on 9/24/06 People not only wouldn't have known that Russo wasn't to blame, they wouldn't have even known he was around to blame, and the angle ended right after they found out. If you look through what was written at the time, nobody was blaming him for any then-current TNA booking until after they actually knew he was in the company again. Jackass angle was before that. I guess Russo was just blamed for the doll then if anything, damn you and your facts.

He is like Paul London if Paul London was interested in Wrestling.

"He's ambitiously stupid" - Why Scott Keith's new book is scary bad
Here a question I always wanted to ask. Why were the Apter mags 4-6 months behind? Was it because there was only 2-3 people writing them or what?

RAW tonight
The wizork begins: After his match with Eddie Kingston at last night's CHIKARA event in Taylor, MI, Bryan Danielson made his first public statement since leaving WWE. He talks about people bringing ties to shows and says you can go out and mat wrestle hard and it's still PG. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w0btknzcuGs

I can sort of understand her logic here (without the benefit of context of the question asked and her whole answer). "Fire Russo" to her, means that they hate the booking. Shit rolls downhill, always has and always will. So if the fans dislike the booking, then it's going to be the low man on the totem pole who feels the brunt of it. It's no different than last year when the WWE started feeling the impact of the shitty economy. They didn't respond by firing HHH, Orton, Cena, etc. when they headlined PPVs that drew less money than the previous year. They responded by laying off front office staff. Especially when the wrap was that most of segments that got a fire Russo chant were Dutch Mantels.

She has also never did drugs apparently? What about her mythical party house everyone used to go on about?

So he gave his standard answer to that question then. I dont know why but I always feel sorry for Wade when Bryan makes a "unprofessional" attack on poor Wade. WATCH THIS: The trailer for the Dixie Youshoot.

Anyone with a Torch sub here? Can you tell me what Wade said about Alverez in the after show for the June 24th Torchcast?

This very Cageside Seats worthy: http://middleeasy.com/index.php?option=com...4:organizations Some sherdoggers are taking this as proof that UFC are pure evil, while others see for what it is modern marketing to create a buzz.

I sort of chuckled at Maria doing the "back in my day" schtick. A 20-something year old woman, who got a job from the Diva Search is concerned that indy girls in FCW aren't properly paying their dues. God bless pro wres. Oh God. I have to hear that one. Essentially Cornette had her set up the ring in OVW and the divas in FCW never, ever do it.

Oh he is he thinks yawning is a signing of weakness both in himself and others. Ive seen Bret's affect on women at close quarters twice, he isnt so much a desperate, dirty old man or even that he is famous (a la Flair) women just want to mother him.

Not really has anyone had more than two titles devoted to them? Of those people has anyone been duplicitous in those shoots? At least it makes a change from Feinstein's production line approach to shoot interviews.
