According to Twitter, Gregory Helms taught Piven that spot.

Tonight on ECW it's Tommy Dreamer vs. Christian for the ECW Championship in a hardcore uh I mean EXTREME RULEZ match.

Jeff Hardy vs CM Punk spoilers

*Jeff Hardy vs. CM Punk. Jeff gets in Matt's face but Matt won't even look him in the eye, glaring away. Hardy is outside of ring enforcer. They went back and forth with a solid bout. Hardy went to the top but Punk cut him off. Punk nailed a superplex off the top for a two count. Punk nailed a martial arts combination and went for GTS but Hardy avoided. Punk rolled up Hardy but was kicked out of the ring. Hardy did a dive out onto Punk. The Hardys faced off outside. Punk hit a sliding kick but Jeff moved and Matt got hit. Jeff took Punk down and went for the Swanton. Punk got his knees up and went for the pin but at 2, Matt pulled the referee out of the ring. Punk began screaming at Matt but Jeff rolled him up from behind and Matt counted a fast three. A shocked Punk attacked Jeff and beat his head into the announcing table, then beat him with a chair. He stuck Hardys head in a chair and ran him into the ringpost.

Teddy Long came out and asked Punk if he was proud of himself and Punk said he was because Matt Hardy screwed him. Punk said he was and he wanted his rematch. Long said if Hardy can defend the title by Summerslam, Punk will get it...in a TLC match. Punk was pissed about the stipulation.

*CM Punk comes out and says he will stay the course and teach the fans the difference between right and wrong, even if so far all his work just seems to make the fans love Jeff Hardy more. He said that this is just another obstacle in his life that he will overcome. They showed Punk's attack on Hardy last week. He said the fans love Hardy because he is just like them and none of them have the strength to be straightedge. He said none of them can be strong like him. Punk said they can boo him but the truth sometimes hurts and he will continue to tell it. The crowd was all over Punk. He accused the crowd of gobbling prescription medicine like Pez. He went on and on about all the vices people have that he doesn't do...smoking, marijuana, alcohol. He told the fans that they need a straight World champion...they need CM Punk.

This is the gimmick Mark Henry should have been doing for most of his career.

Has he EVER been over as a heel? "Sexual Chocolate" was by far his most over gimmick. He just seems to fit the comedic face role very well.

Apparently Vince McMahon was seen laughing uncontrollably backstage during some of Dr. Ken's skits on RAW this week. McMahon was said to be pleased with Ken and Piven's performance.

Of course Vince would like a character like Dr. Ken. How in the world did I not see this coming?

Well done New Japan!! Wonder if TNA will be straight with the fans like they should be or will they do some BS storyline to hide this.

http://www.puroresufan.com/njpw/
New Japan today issued a press release to formally invalidate Team 3D’s IWGP Tag Team Title defense against the British Invasion tandem of Doug Williams & Brutus Magnus. They lost the belts in a recent “defense” that New Japan show no acknowledgment of, a vintage tactic of American pro wrestling groups lacking on the moral side going back many years (who can forget the on-the-fly IWGP Heavyweight Title defenses in WCW that New Japan never recognized either?). Team 3D are still the IWGP Tag Team Champions and their next defense will be one -recognized- by the parent company of the belts, New Japan Pro-Wrestling.

I loved that Nitro. But I was a kid a a major NWO mark. I was so happy they were back together and out smarted Goldberg. Now I realise it was a very big money match, both leaders of the NWO facing each other for the belt.
The crowd was so fired up (those were the days...) for this match. But as big of a letdown as it was, Bisschoff is the greatest guest commentator ever. The entire Nitro he didn't speak a word, but when hogan won he was the happiest man alive:lol

Mike Adamle has apparently been contacted for a role as Raw guest host. He's been on the local news here in Chicago covering sports and a couple days ago he announced that WWE has called him with the offer. Adamle only revealed that tidbit and didn't get into details or whether or not he'd accepted.

Please except...I mean accept. Pulled an Adamle. :p

Great read.

But I was 13 at the time of that Nitro and loved every second of it. I wonder how the 13 year old me would enjoy RAW now-a-days....

I liked Adamle :(

I don't know if it's because I grew up watching him on American Gladiators or what, but I still liked him on ECW and Raw. He was great, especially with his fuckups. They should have kept him and ran with that shit. Be so much better than the "guest hosts" they have right now.

I would have bet a billion dollars they would lose them to Bernard and Anderson at DOMINION, but apparently their seemingly interminable 7-month run will carry on. Every defense has been worse than the last.

EDIT: Also NOAH is running a really stupid angle for Shiozaki's V1 defense against Saito.

So, I was thinking. Pepsi contains Caffeine, right? And Caffeine is a psychoactive stimulant drug. So, if CM Punk likes and drinks Pepsi, does that mean he is not Straight Edge?

Quick Jeff jump on this one!!!

Yeah Dudley's need to lose the titles ASAP. I looking forward to the day NJPW end this relationship with TNA.

As for Noah. I am shocked they are doing this.

some dude on Wrestlechan said:
NOAH is holding a memorial show for Misawa. The main event is going to be Go Shiozaki vs Akitoshi Saito (yes, the guy who unintentionally killed Misawa).

>On navi news, Shiozaki demanded backdrop from Saito. "Even if I receive it I'll stand up". And said reason for that match is "revenge".

-Source:SSS
Click to expand...

Bear in mind that, according to rumours, after Misawa died, Saito allegedly tried to commit suicide, and was threatened and even attacked by fans. Even if that's not true, the poor guy can't be in the most robust of mental states right now. Making him wrestle this match - hell, having this match at all - strikes me as NOAH desecrating the fans' memories of Misawa for profit. Whether that's their intent or not, this match is in horrible taste, and should be canceled IMO.

I literally cannot fathom this. Fuck, even Vince wouldn't do this.
