I never liked the blue cage because it was way too easy to climb out of.....if there is a steel cage match you should have to work for it....I demand more Punjabi Prison matches...I need more Flying Dave

About the Million Dollar Mania:

- It's for those living in the United States only and to me that makes sense. With the way our economy is right now, as well as rising gas prices and the home foreclosure crises, something like this will change lives. Whoever wins this will now be able to afford gas and prevent their home from being foreclosed by the American Government due to debt.

Still, I think this is some sort of setup to make Vince McMahon even more hated. There is no way that Vince's on-screen persona is that generous.

More news about Undertaker

Spoiler

The feeling backstage was that Undertaker needed to take some time off to heal a number of nagging injuries, hence the storyline writing him out of WWE programming. There doesn't appear to be an exact time frame on his return, but it isn't expected to be too long. They did a retirement storyline this time around because Vince McMahon didn't want to go with yet another injury angle. Undertaker has been written out of TV a few times in recent years due to real injuries and McMahon didn't want to give the perception that his body is breaking down. When Undertaker returns he is expected to resume his long-term program with Edge.

IMO....Prior to his return...you should see members of La Familia "disappearing" in the couple weeks prior

Anyone know what matches will be on Flair's next DVD?

I may be biased, but I've never seen as ME material. Swing your guitar, call someone 'slapnuts' and go home, Jeff. He should have worked with Eddie. The only interaction that I remember there consisted of Austin locking the other Radicalz in the locker room with a forklift and coming to ring and beating the hell out of Eddie. A rub there would have been good for business.

Jeff was always booked with lame finishes in the WWE and stuck with Debra, he has always been a good worker and character, but JR was head of talent at the time and he had issues with Jerry Jarrett, thus Austin not onlky wouldn't work with him he used to come out randomly and stun him like a jobber.

He put Kurt over that 2001 summer, eventually tapping out at Unforgiven. Of course, it was kinda limited because he disappeared for two weeks, came back with an awful beard and stole the title with Regal's help on a subsequent Raw, but Angle got elevated there. The majority of that woeful chicken**** Austin gimmick made Kurt look good.

The Summerslam match made Angle tough in fans eyes, i agree, but he never tapped clean, if you recall Austin's hand was clearly under the bottom rope before he tapped, and that is how he got the rematch, so he didn't put him dead center over like HBK did at WM21.
I actually liked Chicken **** Austin, he no longer was capable of being the ass whooping machine he'd been at that point, his body was broken down even prior to his first reign that's why in 98 he worked matches that protect him, when he was out with the neck injury that was really the turning point, if you remember after he stopped the chicken **** heel gimmick and went back to being face he was excruciatingly bad, endless "What promos" where he'd list anything he'd eaten or drunk, and dreadful matches that stunk up the PPV's b/c he wasn't suited to working face anymore.

Sexual Allegations Against Arn Anderson - Details Inside

06/09/2008 by Ryan Clark

A recently released wrestling book entitled Ring of Hell: The Story of Chris Benoit and the Fall of the Pro Wrestling Industry has a story on current WWE road agent/producer Arn Anderson from the latter days of World Championship Wrestling. The book alleges that Anderson would trick naïve female talent into having sex with him by saying that he was a booker in the company. At the time, Anderson was a mere road agent who's duty was to act as a liaison between wrestlers & management, as well as help plan matches.

If you recall, WCW brought in a group of fitness models completely new and unaware to the wrestling business to accompany the reincarnated New World Order to ringside in early 2000. Among those brought in were Tylene "Major Gunns" Buck, April Hunter, Kim "Shakira" Kanner, Midajah O'Hearn (former valet of Scott Steiner and ex-wife of current American Gladiator Michael "Titan" O'Hearn) and Pamela Paulshock. According to the author, Anderson deceived at least one of these girls, who is named in the book. Allegedly, Anderson had sexual relations with even more female wrestling talent as well as female front office employee(s), but only one person is actually named. Additionally, former WCW.com staff member and author of a few WCW-produced fan books, Chad Damiani, recalls Anderson's pet term for oral sex, which he used around the workplace.

Here is what was written in the book concerning Anderson:

"Arn Anderson had a well-known reputation for allegedly tricking naïve young female talent like model Tylene Buck into sleeping with him by pretending that he was the booker in control of their career. Chad Damiani remembers speaking with a female office employee when Arn casually intruded on their conversation to ask her, "Would you like a cat bath?" Apparently a "cat bath" was Arn Anderson's pet term for his oral sex services."

Well considering that Tylene Buck is doing adult films now, it seems that Arn convincing her to have sex wasn't a monumental task...I have an adult film that has a scene involving Tylene and Mary Carey

Now, was that before Mary Carey was in Rehab? Because I saw her once in an episode of Celebrity Rehab on VH1.

Yes...its from a couple years ago....Carey seems to have "quit" doing films but is still feature dancing in clubs and such...in the scene with Carey, she even says she was Major Gunns is WCW....towards the end, the only reason I was watching WCW was for the whole MIA/ Team Canada feud
