Today's News

Angle accuses WWE of plagiarism:


Kurt Angle has used his Twitter to accuse WWE of stealing the AJ Styles / Claire Lynch story and using it for their current AJ / John Cena angle, he tweeted to TNA President Dixie Carter...

“Staged “affair” between AJ Lee & @JohnCena, w/date pic & hotel video? WWE outright lifting TNA concepts?”

He also had a dig at a backstage segment featuring Three Man Band...

“WWE production team using @EBischoff’s innovative multi-camera backstage filming technique with OneManBand segment?”

IMO TNA's backstage camera work is shocking... It certainly is nothing to be proud of.


WWE Confirm Flair no show:


WWE have confirmed that Ric Flair was not at Raw this week, as initially planned, they say he watched the show from home. Still not confirmed why he wasn't there, I thought travel issues initially, but then remembered that the show was in his home town, so maybe WWE want his return to be a surprise, and were P*ssed that the story broke on the net, so pulled the angle.


Goldberg Q&A:


Bill Goldberg did a Twitter Q&A earlier, Highlights...

Could we see him in a wrestling ring again?
“Yes..”

Does he like Brock Lesnar?
“1 of the few I still communicate with. Awesome dude.”

“Funniest question all day…”

Will he and Triple H ever make peace?
“We’re from 2 different planets….”

With others performing in their 40′s, does he think it’s wise to get back in the ring?
“Tough call I’m struggling with”

Is he friends with Shawn Michaels?
“NO”
