It's being said that some WWE officials have recently made contact with Raod Dogg and Billy Gunn in regards to a possible WWE return. Road Dogg was directly approached about the situation, however Road Dogg and Billy Gunn are both still under contract with TNA. If they did in fact come back to the company, there would have to be a penance to pay due to the inflammatory remarks they've made towards Triple H in interviews in the past.
Another idea would to have two younger wrestlers join the Degeneration X group with Triple H and Shawn Michaels to give them a rub like with The Evolution faction. As this point however, the "DX Reunion" set for June will simply consist of Shawn Michaels and Triple H being a tag team.
Oh, from the looks of things. The CW division is pretty much dead...AGAIN.
Noble and Kash now come to the ring in matching ring gear Red & black with gold bulldogs on them (Kash in long tights, Noble in trunks) and dog collars with long chains.
Oh, overnight there was a new addition to the ECW brand, these guys should ciompliment the show pretty well...

A reliable source has informed us that JAPW Tag Team The SAT, Jose and Joel Maximo have been signed to ECW Contracts. They are the first independent tag team to be signed to the new promotion. They have a booking with JAPW in a "Loser Leaves JAPW" Cage match against the Outcast Killaz on June 17th. It is rumored that SAT will lose this match and then become dedicated members of the ECW Roster which is slated to begin Weekly TV shows as early as the week after One Night Stand.

Not a bad match at all, Chavo Guerrero pushes Rey Mysterio off the ropes and Mysterio loses to Mark Henry with a big splash. Mark Henry left with the World Title belt. The crowd was a little confused because it was not announced as a title match and when the bell rang, they only announced Mark Henry as the winner and he grabbed the belt.

Archie, those are real and confirmed. The previous ones were fake.
While I don't think Henry actually own the belt, he took it anyway. Mirroring what they just did on TNA with Christian and Abyss, where Abyss just took the belt for himself. Seriously, if they put the title on Henry I'm done with Smackdown for a while.

Watching Raw for the first time in a while. I see the crowds are still exploding for Masters.
You meen sheer indifference from the crowd? Yep, pretty much.
There's just nothing interesting about the guy. Great, you look like a balding bodybuilder.... why should we care?
Oh... for thise who want to buy the Wrestlemania 22 set. Wal-mart has a hell of a deal!
You buy the WM22 DVD there and bundled with it for free is the Rey Mysterio 619 DVD. (I have a spare copy if anyone wants it. Pretty good stuff)
They also have WM20 with RAW Homecoming (exclusive to Wally World) for free.
Seems like WWE and Wal Mart have teamed up now. they're doing alot of these bundle deals lately.
my wm22 dvd hasnt arrived yet in the mail, but i think i may go pickup that WM20 dvd with homecoming dvd from walmart tonight.. is WM20 on Vol 4 of the wrestlemanis? that doesnt include 21 right? so the vol1-4 plus 21/22 dvds would give you every wrestlemania?
Ok here's the 100% confirmed and double confirmed spoilers.
What the hell is with pople posting up fake news to the sites and having it spread virally?
CORRECT SPOILERS FROM LAST NIGHT'S SMACKDOWN TAPING - REPLACING BOGUS SETS
by Dave Scherer @ 12:30:00 PM on 5/24/2006
There were a few people sending out bogus spoilers from last night's Smackdown taping (don't ask me why people have nothing better to do than that). Elite member Jared Cheeseman sent this report, which is accurate.
Velocity:
Matt Hardy beat Sylvan.
Gunner Scott beat a jobber.
Gregory Helms beat a jobber.
Kid Kash and Jamie Noble, doing their Pitbull gimmick, beat Scotty 2 Hotty and Funaki.
Smackdown:
Lashley beat JBL to win US Title.
Tatanka beat Simon Dean.
Mark Henry beat Chris Benoit, then destroyed him after the match.
Brian Kendrick and Paul London beat Nunzio and Vito.
Finlay beat Paul Burchill, then Shortstack (the midget wrestler) showed up.
Rey Mysterio beat JBL to retain the World Title.
When Paul Heyman was shown there, there was mostly no reaction, except for me. I marked out big time.
He'll be fine... He got knocked out during Velocity.
SmackDown! Superstar Suffers Concussion At Tapings
Date Added: May 24, 2006
Story By: Ryan Cain
From WWE.com
Tuesday night in Bakersfield, Calif., Funaki, competing in a Velocity match, was knocked out for nearly two minutes. SmackDown head trainer Larry Heck later determined that he suffered a Grade 2 concussion. Funaki was taken to a local medical facility for precautionary X-rays. He will have a 100 percent recovery rate.
Be sure to watch Velocity this Saturday on WWE.com for more on this situation.
Shawn Michaels underwent an MRI today in San Antonio to learn the extent of the injuries to his leg. HBK's physician, Dr. Jacobs, claims that Michaels will need surgery. The only question is when. But at the very least, in the short term, Shawn Michaels will need some degree of convalescing.
These fuckin bums were a black eye on the first couple of years of ROH and even got to stink up a few TNA shows. Now they get to bring their highly contrived(and usually blown)spots to ECW? YAY! They are are bad as Billy Kidman when it comes to messing up their own finsher. And they make London and Spanky look like HBK and Flair on the mic.

If you bought the deluxe box with all the sets, I remember 21 was included because it was inside the lid of the box. But if you buy the individual volumes, they only have 1-5, 6-10, 11-15, 16-20.
heh poor AJ Styles would last a day on this board.

I think he probably injured it back in the beginning of the year when he did his little kip up during a match and it looked like his knee just gave. If that was a work, he sold it perfectly.
