Today's News

Jim Ross vs TNA:


Jim Ross has mockingly poured cold water on Dixie Carter's idea of a joint WWE / TNA PPV...

''WWE is about as likely to work w/ Impact Wrestling on an event as I am wearing burnt orange to the Oklahoma-Texass Red River Rivalry Game. Ain't gonna happen. WWE has zero to gain by this and I'm surprised that some fans actually think that it "could" happen. TNA Owner Dixie Carter is a bright lady and made a timely sound byte that many fans, I'm sure, were excited to read but let's be honest...it's not going to happen''

Extreme Rules:


Mick Foley was the special guest panelist on the pre and post shows.

Results and notes...

The Miz bt Cody Rhodes

Chris Jericho bt Fandango

Dean Ambrose bt Kofi Kingston to become the new US Champion.

Sheamus bt Mark Henry

Alberto Del Rio bt Jack Swagger and is now #1 Contender for the World Title.

Roman Reigns & Seth Rollins bt Kane & Daniel Bryan to win the Tag Team Titles.

Randy Orton bt Big Show...

Note, he used his previously banned finisher the Punt Kick.

John Cena vs Ryback ended in a No-Contest.

Brock Lesnar bt Triple H...

Note, WWE introduced a new look steel cage.

Hall Of Famer Harley Race was backstage at the show.

Renee Young was highly praised for her presenting of the pre and post shows.

The action replay feature is something WWE have had waiting for a while, and WWE liked what they did with it, so expect to see it more often.

There was some issues, Verizon were having problems with the ordering system for the show, meaning people had to phone the company to order the event manually.

Rey Mysterio:


Rey Mysterio is on his way to Florida to work with the WWE medical team, he hopes to back by the Summer.

Raw official tease:


* Will Dolph Ziggler return to face Alberto Del Rio?

* How will The Shield begin their three-pronged reign of terror on RAW?

* Will Ryback make another play for the WWE Title before Payback?

* What does the future hold for Brock Lesnar?

* Does Fandango have another twist in mind for Chris Jericho?

AJ Lee vs Kaitlyn for the Diva's Title is also penciled in.

The Jonas Brothers (???) will be guests on the show.

Marc Mero starts new career:


Former WWE star Mero has been ordained as a vicar this week.

Smash talks wrestling's future:


Demolition Smash was talking at a Demolition reunion event this weekend about his Son's struggle to get noticed, and says having a famous dad makes it much harder to succeed...

"It's just my opinion, but I think being a second generation wrestler hurts him a little bit," Darsow said. "Companies can only have so many second or third generation wrestlers on the roster, you have to have different kind of characters. For every Randy Orton, there is a Von Erich, a Neidhart or a Rotunda looking to break out."

He was talking about his Son Dakota.
