Checked my facebook before bed & this is what I see from Sunny: “Not worried about your response” | Refreshes page over & over responding to fan-girls & posts multiple times | ::facepalm Look, the internet can implode & tell me I have no right to my own opinion, but I’m not backing down from anything I’ve said. There aren’t “sides” here, but if there were, SOLELY based on what my issue with Sid was – which was no-showing / disappointing fans / not keeping his word on bookings – and you “hate” me because of what I said, you’re implying it’s OK to do those things, the reason being, because he’s a “legend”. Don’t be a mark. There are plenty of “legends” who are pieces of sh*t. Being a “legend” doesn’t make you a good person. Moreover, I don’t need to be 900 years old or employed by any particular company to be able to have/voice an opinion. And the bigger question is, WHO CARES what I have to say ? Ran out of people to pick on, Sunny ? I stand by my friends through thick & thin but when they’ve done something undeniably wrong I’m not going to justify it when its criticized & that’s exactly what Sunny has done. You’re buddies. Good for you. But your “buddy” has been screwing over a whole lot of fans & promotors – You’re going to back THAT up ? The last shred of respect I tried to hold on to having for you (after discovering you literally sucked Sabu’s dick for somas) is gone. If people dislike me for some other reason, then by all means, continue to rant on and on about it; You deserve the right to express your opinion as much as I do (although today, people seem to have forgotten I have a right to my own) … but if you’re going to hate me because I said people NO-SHOWING makes me sick then you’re just as bad as he is.”

That’s why she’s number one” “brian won’t screw nobody unless I tell him too I am in control” “the only way to shut u up obviously is to put a D*** in ur mouth” “if you could make the money I make youd be a millionaire and get off food stamps ….. b—h” (When asked which Knockout he’d like to screw) “I’ve screwed them all!… I am the master at screw jobs!!!”

Please tell us again how much u LOVE ‘the business…Guess he managed not to ‘lose his wallet’ this time. Sad thing is, now that he got 10 more mins of fame he’ll get more bookings to NO-SHOW…*CK people like that. You f*ck with peoples’ time, money & professional integrity because you’re too much of a douche to keep your word…I’m all for hustlin, but BLACKMAILING promotors into giving you more $ after threatening not to show then STILL not showing after they do.” Sunny Responded in defence of the former WWF Champion... “WOW! Just read something about Reby Sky, who is only known for being Matt Hardy’s girlfriend going off about my good friend Sid Vicious…Like she has room to talk? Who is she? NO ONE! And she was completely disrespectful to the locker room at a show I was on with her… OOOHH just WAIT til I see her again..sh*t’s gonna fly! One thing I’ve always stood by, you always show respect for those who have seniority in this business.. she’s too dumb and ignorant to know that…I was raised Old-school by the right people, and she deserves an Old school ass whipping…. she disrespected me and the entire locker room on the show I was on with Matt… I’ll never say I was on a show with HER. Matt and I have been friends for years….I’m surprised she hasn’t learned a little bit…Regardless if he no-shows or not, someone like her has no right to disrespect someone like him! Sid likes to play his softball…everyone knows it.” Shannon Moore, chimed in... “Sid is great. He worked with 3 Count in WCW and worked hard. If you have been in the biz for 3 min your opinion don’t fn count. Thanks Sid!!, Why do people that have done nothing in the biz want to trash legends. Karma is a bitch.Shut up if you trying to actually make it !, @WWEHOFerSunny You proved your point and made a big impact for the chicks.They have no clue what being a Pro is.” Reby Sky, then wrote to Sunny on her Facebook... “So the fact that I don’t agree with how someone conducts themselves professionally gives another a right to threaten me ? Everyone has a “Sunny story”, but no one can ever say I’m anything but professional & respectful to everyone I’ve ever worked with / beside … unless they’re mad. YOU MAD ? In any case, I believe I owe you a thank you, Sunny, as I was recently offered a movie role that was written for you – but since you were too unreliable – was passed on to me. Perhaps if you weren’t more concerned with doing things that landed you in H*zelden that would have never happened, but I guess reliability isn’t a priority for you. Or Sid. It’s a small world, and if you’re that anxious to see me again I’m sure there are plenty out there who would be more than happy to arrange that. If you can manage to show up, that is.” Sid then thanked Sunny for her support... “Reby Sky can say whatever she wants. I don’t mind. Since when has her opinion on me mattered?I’m not going argue or stoop to her level.Sorry” “@WWEHOFerSunny Do not worry about her. Not worth out time. Thank you though. Thank you and I understand. Doesn’t matter what people say though. I loved being on RAW. Bottom line.”
Maria Kanellis:
She wrote on Twitter that she was working for the best company in the world (Ring Of Honour) and did not want to go back to WWE, but when she was told WWE.Com were featuring her she thanked them, and said she deserved the spotlight.

But the guy in the front row that grabbed my bum, I will have you thrown out next time. You are a pervert!!” The former WWE Diva continued, “I am not to be touched, ever, by a fan weather I am working or not. It’s gross. I am not a toy. You pay to watch, so watch. Don’t touch.

Eddie’s been so mad that I’ve seen Eddie throw a f****ing pool cue across a bar for just about no reason. I’ve seen Dean twice scream at somebody. I’ve never seen Chris do that. All those times I went out every night partying – because that’s what I did – and on occasion I was able to drag these guys out with me. Chris told me on day one – and it never changed – that he didn’t cheat on Nancy. Chris was a faithful husband and loving father. I have no idea what happened. I could never explain it and it blows my mind – the whole thing.”

But regardless once John calmed down I asked him what that was all about he ranted and other crap saying people need to hold their own weight around here and some how he got to Randy being suspended saying he is trying for Randy’s release to send a message to everyone that they can all be fired just as easily. As for now I don’t know if John is trying for Randy’s release or not but if I had to guess I would say he is due to the fact that he told me he was before. This assumption could be wrong however John telling me in the past he did want Randy fired is true”.

Super Diva:
AJ Lee has been to Marvel Headquarters for an interview.
Randy Orton:
Despite his future with WWE still not sorted, Randy is making demands, he is frustrated with his role as a Face, feeling he works better heel, and he also wants his Punt Kick back. He should have thought of that before he almost caved Cody's skull in.

Brock Lesnar:
Brock will next appear on WWE TV on August 13.
WWE star on Reality show:

He also revealed that Ric wanted to follow Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard to WWE in 1988, that Macho Man suffered a stroke during their feud in 1992, and that Flair was due to face Hulk Hogan at WrestleMania 8 that year, but the two guys ego's stopped the match from happening.
Cena's divorce:
John Cena's estranged wife has promised to dish the dirt, she is convinced he cheated on her, and she is determined to find out with who.
Chris Jericho:
As predicted WWE have confirmed that Y2J is booked for a SummerSlam story line, but has no dates advertised post the hottest event of the Summer. Countdown (Day 4)... “The Beatles were the Fab 4. I like them better than the Fantastic 4, the 4 Horsemen, the 4 Tops and 4 Non Blondes…”
Rey Mysterio:
His 60 day drugs ban ends on Monday, but WWE have not booked him for any events as of yet.
John Lauriniatis: (From WWE.Com).
Despite being fired by Vince McMahon, the WWE board of directors have decided that he must fulfil his contractual obligations, and will wrestle with Big Show vs John Cena on next weeks Raw.
WWE recycle entrance music:
Either Jim Johnston is losing his MoJo or WWE are too tight to create new themes, current Diva's Champion Layla is using the 2009 - 2010 theme for former star Tiffany as her ring music.
Randy Orton:
He will work a dark World Heavyweight title match on August 28 (if they decide to keep him on). After announcing 4 dates for Orton just yesterday, WWE have pulled one of the July dates today.
WWE vs Twitter:
WWE have gotten two Twitter accounts closed, one mocking their creative product immediately returned under a slightly different name, the other is more controversial, it was called CrankyVince and mocked the boss, but also revealed inside news and gossip, so it is thought to owned be a current employee, which breaches Twitter's T&C's, but the social media site has refused to reveal the name, due to confidentiality. WWE believe it is an insider because the account revealed the next potentially huge story.
Alberto Del Rio:
The former WWE Champion threatened to quit the WWE last week after being left furious that WWE insiders questioned the severity of his concussion after he missed No Way Out but worked Raw the very next night, he is also frustrated with his position on the roster. He has no issues with money, and could return to Mexico where he is kin to the great Dos Caras, and could also earn extra bank, by being an ex-WWE star. The above Twitter account claimed that he was pulled from the PPV, because of this spat, not because of an injury.
SPOILER!!!:
Vickie Guerrero will announce on this weeks SmackDown that she will be next weeks GM and Great Khali will be her assistant.
Cena / Orton feud:
A WWE source has claimed that the hatred between the two came about because John Cena tried to become a hard A-Doub in the back, trying to ''Coach'' the younger and newer roster members as The Undertaker and JBL did in the past, Randy Orton did not appreciate Cena's behaviour and stood up to him, feeling that his friendship with Triple H would protect him from any repercussions. Cena didn't like having his Alpha male status challenged.
