Some of Todays Wrestling News and Rumours (Possible spoilers) ***NO CHAT***

Rock on twitter answering questions

Between Vince, Brock & myself our Wrestlemania 30 plan was ROCK vs BROCK. No plans now for 30 but possibly WM 31.

Saw this on the news sites earlier

The Ultimate Warrior has reportedly been going after people on eBay that are selling his merchandise. Warrior is asking for 30% of the total sale of each Warrior item sold or he's threatening legal action and to have the item removed from eBay.

Warrior has responded :P

Recent stories about Warrior attempting to swindle 30% royalties from eBayers auctioning Ultimate Warrior items are ridiculously inaccurate. The actual royalty demand is 110%, 100% of money made from the sale plus a 10% service fee for handling the hassle of informing others of their no-nos.

Sorry, but ALL unlicensed goods and ALL counterfeit merchandise using the Ultimate Warrior Intellectual Property will be removed without warning from all auctions sites, websites or similar.

It’s MY gimmick. I OWN it. If you want one, do the work it takes to create one for yourself.

Always Believe,

Warrior

Haha fair ****s to him, as long as he isn't going after people selling the likes of action figures that they bought themselves.

Various movie news...

Rock has apparently accepted a role in a DC Movie. From his Twitter...

We just had a big meeting w/ Warner Bros CEO re: @DCComics 2014 we will partner up and create the cool bad assery. #RockTalk @ActionTilson

Also, Disney and Marvel have released an offical picture of the Guardians of the Galaxy crew, including the return bound Batista as Drax the Destroyer.



For those interested, left to right it's Zoe Saldana, Chris Pratt, Bradley Cooper's CGI character, Batista and Vin Diseal's CGI character.

Rockets easily the best thing about the comics, so if they do it right we certainly will all be talking about him

Only 27

WWE NXT talent Mickey Keegan, formerly known as Max Bauer, has been diagnosed with spinal stenosis and has been forced to retire from in-ring competition. Keegan is now working as a creative assistant for NXT.

Keegan was just signed to a WWE developmental deal back in August of 2012.

Jesus. Is it injury related? I see blunt trauma is a factor in causing it.
I checked it on the WHO there too - 96% of people suffer from pain while standing alone. Sounds like a horrible condition.

SimonQuinlank

I have no idea,same thing that retired Edge IIRC.

There has been about half of dozen people with it in Developmental the past year or so. Plays into the Bill DeMott rumours about him being too harsh on people Army Drill Sargent style.

6 people which is enough to fill an Elimination Chamber with.

DM_7

That would be one of the best Chamber lineups they ever had and actually live up to the epic tag.

Yeah I'd be all over that.

So sad we won't get the Smackdown one of Hornswoggle, Santino, The Great Khali, R-Truth, El Torito and Alberto Del Rio this year.

Mokuba

The Smackdown Chamber with Bryan, Santino, Cody and Wade was brilliant I thought. I'd have that before most of the ones with all the stars that have gone on in recent years.

And then the Smackdown one turns out to be 10x better cause thats what always happens even when it shouldn`t, it still does.
"Who saw Hornswoggle & Tortito hitting Great Khali with a KRS One"

The main event promo by Brodus is better than you would expect but the pull apart with Tensai is hilarious:

That won't be the 6 tho as Lesnar is the default number one contender for the Elimination Chamber.

If they only have one title and rumble winner gets a mania shot, what will the chamber match be for though?

I know that. But like DM-ICE said, things are wide open in terms of what the Mania matches are and it is WWE!

Yep excellent point! I wonder how EC will work this year. If it's a EC for the title. It dilutes Lesnars title shot claim. And as you pointed out the rumble winner will be the no 1 contender for the title at WM.

I'd say it could be a stable war games type match. Wyatt's v the shield maybe?

Precedent was set last year so something like that is possible alright.

Unfortunately WWE's current philosophy is less is more gimmick wise. Just look at the TLC PPV last month that just had one weapons oriented match. So I would presume we are getting one Chamber match this year. Which is a shame as having one Chamber at the start of the show and one at the end worked really well.

Less is more is better imo.

When every match is a stipulation match it REALLY waters down the gimmick imo.

Also known as the "Vince Russo Effect" :pac:

WWE passed on Richards and Edwards,

Please Don't Benoit At Home?

--WWE has sent out a memo that Chris Benoit footage will be allowed on its new network broadcasts. There will be an advisory played before every show he appears on
