    The WWE is running house shows in Mexico for the next 4 days and it will be the first time Sin Cara has performed in Mexico since signing with the WWE.
    The card for the house show on Saturday in Monterrey, Mexico, has been released. Sin Cara will fight CM Punk in a "RAW vs SmackDown Challenge" match. It is not certain but likely the WWE will keep the cards and matchups similar if not the same each night while touring Mexico.

    that was on the infamous "flight from hell" henning challenged lesnar to full on amatuer wrestling match on the plane - and heyman advised lesnar to just humour him and then sit back down as he'd never live it down otherwise as far as i remember. also scott hall was absolutely **** faced on the plane and many of the wrestlers thought he was dead. goldust started singing love songs to marlena/ terri even though they'd been divorced for years. and finally if i'm not forgetting anything jbl or bardshaw as he was at the time cut off hayes' ponytail when he was asleep - and when he woke up and found out what happened he went ape****.

    jesus i remember when that happened it was like when i finally came to the realisation that they really are just overgrown children.

    http://www.bet.com/news/celebrities/2011/05/02/dwayne-johnson-to-play-charlie-pride-in-biopic.html

    Dwayne Johnson will be taking some country pride to the silver screen. The actor formerly known as The Rock will top-line and produce a biopic on Black country music legend Charlie Pride.
    Terrence Howard was originally supposed to play Pride when the project was announced in 2006. But since then, for unknown reasons, the film was shelved. But in an interview with the Telegraph-Journal, Pride revealed that not only was the movie back on track, with Hustle & Flow director Craig Brewer to helm, but Johnson will be portraying him.
    “It startled me a little at first,” Pride admitted to the Telegraph-Journal “But he flew down to Dallas and spent a day with me just sitting, talking recently. And when he left it was like parting with an old friend. We had such similar views on so many things."
    Johnson will produce the project along with Dany Garcia, Randy Jackson and Pride's manager John Daines in association with Sony ATV Music Publishing.
    Pride, who is a Country Music Hall of Famer, rose from an impoverished childhood in Mississippi to become one of the few Black country music singers to have phenomenal success in the mostly white music genre. He has charted more than three dozen No. 1 singles and has sold more than 70 million records.

    No no no. JBL punched Micheal Hayes out on the flight, and Sean Waltman cut off Haye's ponytail. Sean says it in this interview.

    In a new interview with WrestlingVoice.net, Chris Jericho talked about returning to WWE, or not returning to WWE. Here are some quotes:
    "If the time comes for me to come back, I will. Until then, it's fun to watch. I have plenty of other stuff going on, too, so it's not like I'm at a loss for work at this point."
    "Everybody asks, 'When are you coming back, when are you coming back?' and I don't know if I'll ever come back, I have no plans of it as of it right now. I still love WWE, I love watching it, but I don't know if and when I'll ever come back at this point."

    :(

    Didn't he say a near exact same thing before he returned a few years ago?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,013 ✭✭✭✭jaykhunter


    Jericho's a smart lad, he's just keeping his name in the dirtsheets. He said the opposite a few months ago (that his deal was 90% done) and again when he was fawning for dancing votes.

    Basically he'll come when he comes and he'll never tell u the truth and ruin the surprise.

    http://www.totalfilm.com/news/cannes-2011-dwayne-johnson-is-a-snitch
    Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson is set to star in upcoming action thriller Snitch, the latest film to be snapped up for distribution on the Croisette.

    The film follows a suburban pop (Johnson) whose son is hit with a 10-year jail stint for drug offences. In order to reduce his son's sentence, the father goes undercover to expose a senior drug dealer.

    Written by Revolutionary Road scribe Justin Haythe and inspired by a 1999 US TV documentary, the film has been one of the buzz titles of the festival's market.

    Summit Entertainment - the independant studio that rose to power with the Twilight franchise - has bought the US distribution rights for the movie, while international sales are still ongoing.

    Snitch will begin shooting in June for a 2012 release.

    WWE has changed the name of the October 23 pay per view in San Antonio, Texas once again. It was renamed a few weeks ago from "Bragging Rights" to "WWE Uprising." The name has changed again and the event will now be called "Vengeance."

    Former WWE talent Taryn Terrell (a/k/a Tiffany) announced Tuesday that she has separated from husband Drew Galloway, better known as Drew McIntyre in WWE.

    "With great sadness, I announce the end of my marriage," she wrote on her Twitter account. "I wish Drew only happiness and continued success."

    On August 8, 2010, Terrell was arrested in Los Angeles County, California for domestic assault, a misdemeanor, after an alleged argument with Galloway. She was released later that day on $20,000 bail. It was announced on September 26 that all charges against Terrell had been dropped.

    Terrell was suspended by WWE due to the altercation. She was released from her contract on November 19, 2010.

    Can't say I'm surprised.
