RingbellesOnline.com reports Thursday that Natalie Osman (a/k/a Buggy Nova), who signed a WWE developmental contract a few months ago, checked into a rehabilitation center to resolve a substance-related dependency matter. This would explain her profile being removed from the official NXT website last month and her absence from social media and NXT events in recent weeks. Her status with rehabilitation and WWE remains unclear.

This week's edition of Impact was much better than last week's. The Aces and Eights storyline has finally moved forward since No Surrender. Seeing Hulk Hogan and Sting together in action is like seeing Superman and Batman. If they bring in Chyna, she'd be wrestling's equivalent of Wonder Woman, and the three of them would be wrestling's trinity.

Two Gutcheck rejections in a row. So far, three have been accepted and three have been rejected. The judges did a good job in playing against predictions. The things that went against Evan Markopoulos are his match with Doug Williams and his age.

Congrats to Samoa Joe for winning the TV title. He's becoming another of TNA's Grand Slam Champion besides AJ Styles and perhaps Abyss.

I like the way the Hogans are running TNA Impact.

do you know what chyna's doing now?

 

[NDX]

do you know what chyna's doing now?

She might still be able to play Wonder Woman...

 

[Team Andino]

She might still be able to play Wonder Woman...

Only if it's a porno, even then I'd cast someone else.

[TX85]

Knockouts are leaving TNA and now more Divas are leaving WWE,I can understand why though with the way the women's divisions are right now&have been for a while in both companies

It's a bad time for women wrestlers,Even in ROH they are just used as managers,Their only chance is much smaller indy promotions/Japan or AAA in Mexico

i cant put benoit matches up but i honestly think the wrestlemania 17 match was better than RR 03

 

[Darkness Falls]

tough one but if i had to choose

10: Rock Vs Austin II - WM17
09: Chris Benoit Vs Kurt Angle - Ultimate submission match Backlash 01
08: HBK vs HHH (Hell in a cell) - BB 04
07: Macho Man Vs Ricky Steamboat - Wm3
06: Cm Punk Vs Daniel Bryan - Over the Limit 12
05: HBK vs Kurt Angle - WM21
04: HBK vs The Undertaker - WM25
03: Rock Vs hhh (iron man match) JD00
02: HHH vs Cactus Jack - RR2000
01: HBK vs Bret Hart - WM12

 

[DarthSkywalker]

I honestly don't think it is close. Forget the botched finish of the Wrestlemania match, the Rumble match is like the climax of all their matches. Everything they ever did together put into one perfect moment. It was the best Angle we ever saw and Benoit was his usual great self. The second Benoit dropped Angle on the apron with the DDT you knew it was on. Also, Benoit and Angle probably had 5 better matches then their WM match. I honestly don't think it was close to their best. Their 2002 Unforgiven match and Raw Cage match were infinitely better.

I also suggest anyone who hasn't seen the Eddi/JBL match from JD to give it a look. Beautiful combination of styles.

 

[E-Man]

I have so many matches to name that I can't think of a top ten. Most of them do involve HBK though since the man was straight legendary. I'll just list 10 that I really love in no order.

Taz vs. Bam Bam Bigelow with that classic finish they had
Eddie Guerrero vs. Kurt Angle-doesn't matter which one because they were always magic in the ring together
Macho Man vs. Steamboat oooohhhhh yeahhhhhh!!!!!
Rock vs. Hulk Hogan at Wrestlemania
Any Rock vs. Stone Cold match at Wrestlemania- all three were classics
Shawn Michaels vs. Razor Ramon at Wrestlemania
Shawn Michaels vs. Bret Hart at Wrestlemania
Bret Hart vs. Stone Cold at Wrestlemania- Easily one of the best finishes in wrestling history. Perfect way to do a turn for both characters in a reasonable fashion while making them both look strong.
Undertaker vs. Mankind in the Hell in a Cell- Bah gawd! They killed him!
Shawn Michaels vs. Kurt Angle at Wrestlemania- That match is hands down my favorite because it had everything I ever wanted in a wrestling match. It was so hard to root for either guy! Plus there were rumors of Kurt Angle retiring after the match because of his neck issues, and with HBK I always worried because he was out so long due to the back injury. About the only thing they could have done for me as a fan in that match is make it a draw since I love both guys, but somebody's gotta win.

Hopefully this will be the end of it. God help us if she wins.

The best career move Linda can make right now is to acrimoniously divorce from Vince.

 

[Dr. Evil]

It's a bad time for women wrestlers,Even in ROH they are just used as managers,Their only chance is much smaller indy promotions/Japan or AAA in Mexico

Or they can work their ass off for a year and go into Mixed Martial Arts.

Also, please WWE do not do this as it would be bad publicity for the WWE and it would give their critics much needed ammo:

- Former Major League Baseball star Jose Canseco looks to be desperately seeking a job in professional wrestling. We noted a while back that he had been in contact with TNA President Dixie Carter about working there. Canseco also recently reached out to WWE about being a Social Media Ambassador.

It would be a terrible idea, even worse then the *****ebag from the Jersey Shore or the no talent hack of a Kardashian.

 

[MMMMM...Pancakes]

My favorite match is Chris Jericho vs. Shawn Michaels at Wrestlemania XIX, I'd really have to sit down and think about the rest of the top 10.

She seems like Hilary to his Clinton. I'm not sure which diva/divas are Monica.
