Today's News

Bob Holly vs Heidenreich:


Bob Holly has talked about his real world feud with Ex WWE man Heidenreich, he says their issues started when Heidenreich turned up 6 hours late for a show, and threatened to beat John Laurinaitis and Vince McMahon up for admonishing him for his tardiness, the incident led to his release...

"The reason he lost his job was because of him, the biggest downfall was he was supposed to be at TV at 1pm and he shows up at 7pm. They had big plans for him and Animal. He shows up at 7pm and then threatens to beat up Johnny (Ace) then threatens to beat up Vince so they got rid of him."

Heidenreich has accused Holly of taking liberties in the ring, and says he was close to taking vengeance in the back after Holly's abuse of Rene Dupree one night, Holly responded...

"He's had the opportunity so many times to bash my head in. When that thing happened with me and Rene Dupree he was nowhere to be found, he had nothing to say about it. He was there at the time that stuff went down, he never said anything to me. He's just talking tough from a million miles away."

Sting talks his future:


He was asked about his future plans, and how much longer he will continue to wrestle...

"I've learned not to give a time, I can't go on wrestling much longer. I'm taking it, literally, one month at a time. I'm under contract until January of next year, so we'll see what's happening. I do want to do more movies. I'm looking at a few different things, reality shows being one of them. I'm just trying to move onto the next season of my life. As far as wrestling goes, I've stayed away from the creative part of it all these years, I just don't want to sit in on the meetings and babysit wrestlers and personalities and all that. But, there are things I'd like to see happen in pro wrestling and I may try to make it materialize. I don't know."


Rob Van Dam:


WWE have been in contact with RVD since the night before WrestleMania, when he appeared at the Hall Of Fame ceremony, however the deal, which is now done, for him to return to WWE almost fell through due to Triple H's slowness in completing the paperwork. RVD became convinced that the lack of movement from Hunter's office meant they were not interested on a return, and he started taking on Indy bookings, and non wrestling roles. HHH however was on board for an RVD return, he just had so many other irons in the fire, with his in ring stories, the post WrestleMania fallout, Getting the Performance Center off the ground, and more. So it seems RVD's contract got lost in the shuffle for a while. As soon as HHH made the call however the deal was done extremely quickly and RVD will return on a part time basis at Money In The Bank.

He has also took a shot at TNA, on his podcast...

"I read this yesterday on some story. It said, 'With one 48-second video, WWE can make RVD mean more than he's meant in the last several years.' I think it's true. The reason I think that's true is because like over the last several years I've had so many people say, 'RVD, you got to get back in the ring. What did you do, retire?' You know, and I'm always promoting, 'No, no, Thursday nights on Spike every week.' And I've done that for three years. I don't know about you, but I get that all the time. All the time. And that's the difference between this and this."


NXT:


Steve (Skinner) Keirn has been told he will likely not be involved in the future of NXT after the Performance Center opens it's doors. He has been responsible for the day to day running of the WWE feeder league. He is not going to be the only release however, more are expected in the coming weeks.

Also on NXT, WWE have deleted the groups website, and have completed the transfer of all details over to their own site WWE.Com.

However that means that the stars (Including Conor O'Brian) that did not get a WWE.Com profile added are now no longer recognized by the company as rostered talent.

WWE also plan on a fly on the wall documentary to coincide with the opening of the Performance center.

This is the new NXT home page.
