    Lilian Garcia announced on her Twitter account yesterday morning that her final day with WWE will take place on Monday, September 21. A Monday Night Raw taping is scheduled to take place at the Verizon Arena at Little Rock, Arkansas that evening. "My last day at WWE is officially Mon, Sept 21st," Garcia wrote. "It will be a bitter sweet night for me."

    I say Vince will deffo have the writing team humiliate her on her way out.

    What do we think they'll come up with?

    DX will be involved, and there'll probably be some sort of sing-off with Jillian. I doubt they'll humilate her though. Bar the occasional slip-up, I thought she did a great job during her 10 years or whatever

    I wouldent think Vince will have her humiliated, she isnt leaving on bad terms afaik. They may not even aknowledge that its her last night but if they do itd prob be just something small like The King saying on commentary that they will all miss her then prob cracking ajoke about how they are stuck with the Fink now or something.

    Is The Fink coming back? Hope so, he rules!

    They will probably pick some hotty from FCW to replace her.

    just checked his wiki to confirm and it was him although its listed as a guest appearance. He could always cover till they replace her though, I remember hearing they were looking for another female announcer who could sing a while back when Lillian first suggested she wanted out.

    currently the fink is filling the following roles according to said wiki:
    Finkel currently supplies the voiceover intro for the WWE.com video show The Dirt Sheet and does behind-the-scenes work for WWE projects, including conducting interviews for various WWE.com programs. He is also WWE's chief statistician.

    WWE put out an ad months ago seeking a latin-American woman to do announcing. I don't know if they hired anyone yet, but there was also talk of them doing an American Idol rip-off where the winner would be Lilian's replacement

    Lillian may not be leaving on bad terms, but look what they did to Lita and Vicky Guerrero on their way out; they weren't leaving on bad terms either but Vince was pissed that they were leaving at all and really stuck it to them.

    I hope instead of a hog-pen match or having Cryme Time present her with sex toys (as was done with Vicky and Lita respectively), they do something more respectfull.

    World Heavyweight Champion, CM Punk, is currently dating former WWE Diva, Lita, reports the UK Sun. WrestleZone.com posted pictures of the two arriving to an event together and sources close to the couple announced to the Sun that they have been dating for nearly a year now. CM Punk apparently told Edge and Matt Hardy face to face as well, although Punk and Lita have kept the relationship quite personal and quiet.

    - TheHill.com has reported that WWE CEO Linda McMahon will make her intentions known in regards to running for Senator for Connecticut by September 16th.

    - WWE has already announced that Linda will resign her position if she decides to run for the Senate. Vince McMahon would then take over her duties.

    Philadelphia Police are investigating the mysterious death of a minor league professional wrestler.

    Matt "Riot" Lowry died at Hahnemann University Hospital Tuesday following a training exercise in South Philadelphia Monday evening.

    Following the exercise at "The Arena" building on Ritner Street Monday, Lowry was rushed to Hahnemann Hospital.

    The 22-year-old passed away Tuesday from what police said was severe head injuries.

    A man who trained Lowry told CBS 3 that the athlete was not injured inside the ring. The man said Lowry suffered an aneurysm while warming up outside the ring.

    Lowry was originally from Ohio, but neighbors said he was living with a friend in Westville, New Jersey.

    An autopsy to determine Lowry's exact cause of death is scheduled for Wednesday.

    RIP

    I hope that Vince takes over Jerry Lawler's duties if he gets elected as mayor. Michael Cole and Vince McMahon would be an interesting team :pac:

    haha, yeah he'd probably think Vince is still talking to him through the headset

    I have to say, I was watching Unforgiven 99 and Stone Cold was doing commentary for most of the main event. He wasn't actually too bad. Doubt he could put up with Vince shouting through the headset, same as Foley

    PWTorch.com is reporting that John Morrison's reputation in the Smackdown locker room has improved drastically, and he said to be very well liked amongst other wrestlers in the company. The same cannot be said about Melina, however, who although has improved slightly, is still looked at by others in WWE as a "Diva." It's also being reported that Morrison and Melina are still dating.

    So Melina is back with Morrison now

    I don't know which way flahavaj means, but she did hold him back in a way when they were together as MNM. Whenever Nitro or Mercury hit a big move Melina would do her big scream and the fans would pay attention to her rather than the guys in the ring

    Imagine Austin doing the Stunner and everytime there'd be someone outside the ring trying to distract you from him

    He did more than that, he accompanied Mayweather to the ring as a part of his entourage. Batista accompanied the Pac Man to the ring for his fight with Hatton too.

    Since they're not together in front of the camera, I would guess he means in the backstage sense though.

    The story has almost went that she's a bit of a nightmare backstage, and disrespectful. Alot of people felt that the negative stigma she carried rubbed off on Morrison, and the two were lumped together as having "an attitude".
    How much is true, is anyone's guess. I mean, Orton felt that not being known by an outsider was disrespectful enough to go potty, so it's impossible to discern who has the actual attitude!

    Both in and out of the ring. Backstage shes never been the most popular and that heat has often transferred inadvertently to Morrison. Plus what Fozzy said. Valets and managers should be helping get someone over, not drawing attention to them selves to the detriment of the wrestler. Julius Smokes is the same.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,510 ✭✭✭Tricity Bendix


    Never heard anything about Melina being disrespectful. I know her self and Mickie James had some problems, but other than that the image Mick Foley painted of her in his wrestling blogs was a polite, quiet young lady.

    She really was a bad valet, tho.

    (From 411mania)

    - Ed Ferrara, who previously worked for TNA and with Vince Russo during Russo's WWE Attitude and WCW runs, is backstage at the TNA No Surrender PPV and looks to be working on the creative team.

    - Jeremy Borash has been asked to return to the TNA creative team, making the current team Vince Russo, Ed Ferrara, Borash and Matt Conway. Borash worked with Russo and Ferrara in WCW.

    - Right now there is a lot of concern regarding the health of The Undertaker. He came back to work in Puerto Rico, as a warm up for his Breaking Point match, and that is when concern started. After WrestleMania, Undertaker had hip surgery, but it was played off as a minor thing. In reality, he had very serious surgery, possibly a hip replacement, and the company wondered if he would return at all. Taker is in a lot of pain, and noticeably slower; this is why the Breaking Point match was booked to be so short. Some are wondering if we will see him retire at WrestleMania 26.

    - Al Sharpton will guest host Raw on September 28th.

    - The View's Sherri Shepard is expected to guest host in October.

    - Vince McMahon made the call for CM Punk to cut a promo on Jeff Hardy at Breaking Point. Punk had already cut a promo, but Vince made the decision to add in the Hardy comments and re-shoot the promo.

    - The creative team has been pushing to give CM Punk a bodyguard. Ezekiel Jackson had been rumored for the role, but the feeling is that working on ECW is the better place to develop him. Another option is Festus. The a
