it's inevitable batista will go in the hof, it would be stupid to think otherwise. my question is will brock lesnar ever be in the hof? it.s also a shame that macho, stu hart , bulldog ,and others have been passed over

I dont expect him to. He screwed WWE over and its not like he ever came back, so its not like any situation with a veteran that Vince may of had problems with in the past. Brock's hot right now thanks to UFC but by the time he would be a normal age to make into the HOF he'll be a outta the limelight an long forgotten in the world of wrestling.

Brock Lesnar wasn't in the wrestling business long enough to warrant a Hall of Fame spot.

Stu Hart never wrestled in the WWE, and I'm not sure if his popularity spanned organizations as Ric Flair's did enough to warrant a spot. But I think he could get in from creating the Hart Dungeon that spawned many famous stars.

I'm surprised Bulldog hasn't been inducted yet and I think it'll happen eventually.

Macho Man is another story entirely. But who knows, Vince is putting out a DVD on the guy, so who knows.

Big Dave is such a sneaky bastard.

Big Dave is such a sneaky bastard.

For a sec I thought that was real.

 

[Team Andino]

Big Dave is such a sneaky bastard.

Looks like a game of Batista sex lottery or something, hes the free space an he marks all the girls hes been with for the win

 

[Dr. Evil]

I guess it just goes to show you that fighting in a cage with rules and fighting outside of it where there are no rules are a completely different thing.

And where did you find this news? I cannot find it on any of the mma news sites or anyplace else.

I find this funny since I have never liked Tim anyways and find him cocky, despite the fact he really isn't that great of a fighter.

I got it off a wrestling message board who claims to have gotten off some MMA site called Ninjashoes.net.

Ha, I don't think Brock will ever make it in. Especially not after his last match w/ Goldberg. Bill will never get in either

 

[Eric Draven]

Any hall of fame that will let in Koko B. Ware will surely let in Batista

There was a story going around saying TNA Knockouts Roxxi and Rhaka Khan were involved in a backstage altercation in which Khan gave Roxxi a black eye. However, the story has since been changed to Khan stiffing Roxxi in a match recently taped for Impact, so apparently that's how Roxxi suffered the black eye, and not during the backstage argument the two women had.

According to several people in the organization, Rhaka Khan is not liked backstage and has a really bad attitude. She doesn't want to train to improve in the ring and carries herself like she's a huge star, which rubs a lot of people the wrong way. Since she's dating Kurt Angle, however, no one says anything to her face, since Angle has a lot of political stroke in the company. Khan is in a secure spot since TNA isn't going to release her due to her relationship with Angle.

Thank goodness that they are coming out with a Randy Savage DVD that is legit and not anything like the Warrior DVD.

There won't be any commentary though, so it will be a lot like The Rock's DVD.

A little more detailed SD spoilers for next week

Spoiler

SmackDown (Airing Next Week)
* Kane, Christian Cage, Shelton Benjamin and Finlay defeated MVP, Mark Henry, CM Punk and Kofi Kingston. This match was a bit better than the six-man match they had on TV the other night. Kane got the win after a chokeslam on Punk.

* Big Show defeated Jesse and Festus in a Handicap match. It was good to see Jesse and Festus back but this was an obvious show to make Big Show look good for Wrestlemania. Show got the win after his knockout punch.

* Carlito, Primo Colon and Brie Bella defeated The Miz, John Morrison and Nikki Bella. Good match here considering everything, made me want to see their match at WrestleMania. Colons and Brie got the win with the Backstabber.

* Matt Hardy defeated R-Truth with a Twist of Fate.

* Maryse defended her Divas Championship against Michelle McCool. The match ended in DQ when Gail Kim made her return and hit Michelle with a missile dropkick before attacking Maryse. Gail has definitely arrived.

* Rey Mysterio defeated Chavo Guerrero with the 619. JBL came out after the match and dropped Rey with the big boot. They did show a graphic on the big screen that JBL will defend the IC Title against Rey Mysterio at Wrestlemania.

* Shawn Michaels came out to cut a promo on The Undertaker. Shawn was dressed in white mocking Taker and said he represented the light while Taker represents the shadows. Shawn quoted scripture from the Bible and talked about he will be Mr. Wrestlemania and end Taker's streak.

Dark Main Event:
* The advertised World Title match with Edge and Jeff Hardy happened actually. Edge got the win after spearing Jeff with interference from Matt Hardy.

What happens to her if Angle decides to have one last run in the WWE?

Batista will be going into the HOF, HHH will make sure of that since he went out of his way to make him and hell, Koko is in now so it is open season.

lol I was about to mention that. I HATED when Angle went from serious competitor to serious pervert in a month. From fighting HBK at WM21 to wanting "Gutter sl*ts" and being into Beastiality.:facepalm

I think maybe that was the beginning of the end of the Kurt Angle I knew an loved...

Except the Hogan promo was funny. Loved the Larry King one. "Well I'm guess I'm gonna have go in the back and do some politicking with Vince McMahon...BRUTHA!"

-- A week or two back, photos were leaked online regarding Chris Jericho and RAW diva Kelly Kelly partying together. It was then assumed that the two were going out even though the last we heard was that Jericho had a wife and three children. Since then, a new photo has been leaked online of Jericho and Kelly clearly sharing a kiss. For those of you who want to view it, click here.

-- Mike Johnson of PWInsider.com is reporting that another three-hour RAW is set to air on June 15th. Johnson points out that it could be a King of the Ring-themed show.
