Well right away, the WWE has announced that it has hired long time fan and actor Freddie Prinze Jr. as part of the creative staff. While on the surface this seems to be Vince puckering up for Hollywood to e a feeling that hmove. I mean that they call it sports entertainment and what it really is in my mind is a very unique form of live action theatre where the stage is in the middle. Having an actor helping with the storylines and giving a fresh fans perspective to the creative staff can only help overall. And the other part of this story is that one of the number of sports entertainment websites said that they may be talking to Prinze's wife about working an angle on the show. Being a big “Buffy” fan from way back in the day I think that this could be really good.
From the completion down south. TNA parted company with two fairly big names today when Black Reign's profile was taken off its website . Dustin Rhodes was working on an appearance basis and hadn't been on TV in three months. I have a feeling that he's headed to FCW to help his dad whip the “ minor league” into shape. Dustins many issues with his dad hopefully have healed enough for them to pass along their collective wisdom to the up and coming talent . Tomko on the other hand is a different story. Tyson Tomko has had some issues with TNA manegment for a little while and is now seeking his fortune in the land of the rising son.
On the tragically comic side of life , the Sandman finally made bail after showing both cheeks of his ass at Captain Lou Albano's 75thBirthday party. The tape of this little incident is somewhere on you tube and is tragically comical to say the least. It was almost as bad as a few months ago at an Indy show where he was supposed to come out and save Spike Dudly from a beat down and he was so drunk that it took him several minutes to get to the ring. On the more tragic side, Kevin Nash walked out early on a TNA taping Tuesday because he didn't like the way it was suppose to end. At the present time there isn't much detail on what happened and given the fact that they're playing this Kaz is leaving angle so close to the vest , this whole thing might just be a big job. The longest reigning IC champ nearly lost a finger a few days ago outside of a Boston Pizza joint when he and a fan were going to smash guitars together and the fan missed and caught his finger in the strings. He took eight stitches and will recover.
The newest issue of the “ Globe” there is an extremely negative article going so far as to say that there is a fear that he would become the next Chris Benoit. I know the whole Hogan Family saga has been big checkout line news but saying something that stupid is still a really big stretch.
And know lets talk about the women . Why on gods green earth are they doing this angle with Beth Phoenix and Santino Marella . No disrespect to Mickie James, the Glamazon is the best in ring woman they have and she doesn't need to be wasting her time on a throw away storyline like this. TNA found a credible foe for Kong and also found a way to sell it so once again. So once again, the knockouts are one upping the Diva's and a second title belt isn't going to help this situation.
Taking a look at Smack Down's spoilers , I wont say what happens, but I really didn't see any thing that earth shaking either. The whole focus seems to be when the Undertaker is coming back and where is he going to be. The rub is going to be , he has apparently struck up a little thing with new Diva champ Michelle McCool and he more then likely wont want to change shows . But can he and HHH co exist on the same show. We shall see soon enough.
And finally the subject of Mike Adamlie must be addressed. I said this in my last article , Dick Ebersole most have something bad on Vince to get Vince to give this Hack a job. And know this idiot is going to be the on air face that is in charge of Raw. This guy who from day one has done nothing right and even Monday night he tipped the whole thing off by getting up before Shane announced he was the new GM. I have no idea what the plan is but from my mind the best thing about this whole thing is he's off the announcer table on ECW.
Well that's all for know , I'll be talking to you soon.
