I KNEW it was his ass disbelief

The day before Survivor Series, it was on dirt sheet sites that Evan Bourne and another wrestler had smoked some weed at a party and Evan got suspended. All the info had on the other wrestler was that he was in the main event....

I immediately knew it was this muthafucka lol

Oh fuck yeah. My co worker who manages wrestlers in the Southern States Alliance

told me that R.Truth used to smoke weed ever since he worked with him in the minors.

Look at them lips! I don't doubt that shit one bit.

Ya know, I just thought about something regarding Raw last night. What in the hell happened to Jonah Hill last night? He was advertised last week during the 3-hour show to "guest host" for this week. I wonder if he no-showed. I mean, the show had a couple of matches that were unusually long, and this could've been done to fill in for the times Jonah was going to take up.

Anyone know?

I swear, R-Truth is the Eddie King Jr. of the WWE!

BTW, they would've been better off smoking real marijuana since it's a fine and not a suspension. Call themselves being slick and smart and still got got!

Apparently, they ran long on time and couldn't fit him in. Now, he knows how Brodus Clay feels, since he was supposed to be coming to Raw for the past 2 or 3 weeks, but they couldn't find time for him.

Billy Kidman is supposed to be the guy who times matches and segments to make sure they don't run too long. Dude must be asleep in the control room or some shit!

Yeah, but not even just one shot, one backstage vignette? It was like he wasn't even in the building!

And I think Kidman was in the back daydreaming about his previous night and all the fun time dressed in drag as L4OA's boy toy. I told him to check for the adams apple, but homeboy just wouldn't listen. disbelief Cuz of course, those are the only kind of "stellas" he can pull.

Jerkin' everything in sight! YOUNT!

Yeah, you're probably right. He saw how shitty the product has become and decided against it. He was probably like, "This ain't the wrestling I was watching just 10 years ago!!! Fuck that!" lol

Also, was Kevin Nash drunk on Raw or what??? lol Talk about slurring your words. Sheeh!

Yeah, me too. It's like watching a train wreck, wondering what his next fuck-up is gonna be. He's coming out saying the same ol' shit week after week, and I don't think the audience gives two figs about this supposed "feud". Hell, the audience is mostly kids, and you know they have NO idea who Kevin Nash is, not without looking him up on YouTube! lol

I wish all Raws and PPVs could be held in NY (MSG, not Long Island) and Chicago! They are, BY FAR, the best crowds in the country for WWE.

Must pay respect to another fallen wrestler.

Mark "Bison" Smith passed away today in Puerto Rico of a heart attack at 38.

He mostly wrestled in Puerto Rico and Japan (he was the top gaijin in NOAH). I wont pretend he was Stan Hansen or Terry Gordy, but he was a damn good worker and will be missed.

RIP BISONTENNIEL.

Ouch! You go, Gail! Keep it up, and you MIGHT be one of my stellas again, instead of toiling around in the minor leagues with L4OA!

Gail Kim Says WWE Disrespected Her - Details

Gail Kim Says WWE Disrespected Her - Details
Speaking to SLAM! Wrestling, Gail Kim explains why she disobeyed WWE by controversially eliminating herself from the Divas Battle Royal on the August 1 episode of Monday Night Raw. She says it was the culmination of all the disrespect she felt from WWE.

"I don't regret what I did at all. It was a respect thing," Kim says. "I was told to get eliminated as soon as possible, so that's what I did. I saw my decision as a case of either continuing to take their lack of respect or doing something about it.

"Nobody knows what I went through in terms of disrespect during my time there, but that move wasn't just about me it was a culmination of all the disrespect I felt that all the other women and the women's division as a whole had received too, I was taking a stand.

"While a lot of fans watching Raw noticed what I did, nobody from WWE noticed, that just shows how much they didn't care. I went up to Johnny [John Laurinaitis] after and spoke about the Battle Royal and his reaction towards the match was, 'Yeah, I heard it was pretty s--t.' I was amazed and I then told him how I eliminated myself and he just laughed.

"How can fans take the division seriously if the people working for the company aren't? If it had been one of the men who had eliminated themselves they would have been punished, but because it was the women nobody cared, not even after I had told them."

A few days later Kim announced on Twitter that she had quit WWE, however, she was not permitted to bolt. What followed was a standoff between WWE and their former Women's Champion, which saw her forced to sit out the remainder of her contract.

"WWE are notoriously known for being controlling when it comes to your career, that night of the Battle Royal I went to Johnny and told him I quit, I said I don't want your money; I just want to be free. He told me that it shouldn't be a problem, but of course it was," Kim says.

"They didn't want me to work elsewhere, at this time I told him, 'What does it matter if I leave or not? You're not using me, it's not like I'm valuable to you just let me go,' but there was no budging."

After sitting at home for over two months waiting out the remainder of her contract, Kim finally made her much anticipated return to TNA Wrestling on the October 20 episode of Impact Wrestling, when she aligning herself with Madison Rayne and Karen Jarrett. Being a TNA Knockout means everything to her.

"I'm just so excited to be back in the company, I can't speak for anybody in particular but the feeling I got when I came back was that there were no hard feelings about my previous decision to leave. Being back here feels like time has never passed.

"I think everyone kind of expected me to return. I said in my last interview when I was leaving that I would probably be back, everyone has been real welcoming, it's like being a part of a family here at TNA. It's great to see the growth that this company has made since I've been gone, it's nice to see the direction its going and where they want to be heading."

She adds, "I'm just so happy to be here and to now be a part of a company once again that actually cares about wrestling."

R-Truth going Babyface??

More On R-Truth's Suspension & Babyface Turn, IMPACT! Matches

-- Regarding R-Truth's suspension, word is that he was informed he failed the Wellness test around the same time as Evan Bourne but was never told he would be suspended and didn't know he was being suspended until November 22nd, the day WWE announced it.

WWE creative also weren't told about the suspension until it happened. As noted before, Vince is turning R-Truth babyface when he returns in part because he sees great potential in Little Jimmy merchandise. Truth's turn is also being done because Vince feels RAW only has two over babyfaces, John Cena and CM Punk, and if one of them gets hurt then the depth would be worse than it is now.

Truth as a face just will NOT work!! I'm sorry. Him pandering to the crowd is exactly what he said he didn't want back when he initially turned!!! God, this makes ZERO sense!!! All because Vince wants to sell more Lil Jimmy merchandise, which would've happened anyway if they had Truth stay the course!

CM Punk Interview with Hot Clicks Podcast

Source: The Hot Clicks Podcast


CM Punk did a great interview with The Hot Clicks Podcast last week. Punk opened up and talked about Vince McMahon, John Cena, The Rock, his near exit from the WWE and many other topics. Here are some highlights, you can check out the full interview by clicking here.

On not sleeping: "We just did a European tour. I would honestly say on the European tour if you want to average it all out, I slept two hours a night... Eventually it gets to you. I know when I start seeing things that I really need to try… It's not like I'm forcing myself to stay awake. It's a thing. I got in late last night. I met up with my buddies, H20, the band and we went out. I got back to my hotel maybe at two in the morning and I had to meet in the lobby at 6 AM so I got a 5:30 wakeup call and next thing I know it's 3:30. I'm reading comic books in my hotel room."

How hard it is being straight edge: "It's not hard at all. A lot of people ask me that. I almost think it's a really weird question. How hard is it for you to wear glasses? How hard is it for you to have back hair? I was born this way so, no, it's not hard at all.

"I just turned 33 so I'm assuming I'm what you call an SEOG: Straight Edge Old Guy. There are not a lot of us. I know everybody that was straight edge when I first claimed straight edge, when I was like 15-20, everybody fell off; everybody sold out. There's like me and my friend Natalie back in Chicago. It's like you find somebody else who's straight edge and you stick together."

On almost leaving WWE: "The last 12 months… I was leaving, I was out the door. I wasn't quitting. My contract was up and I was like, "You know what, my contract's up. I fulfilled my obligations to you. You have fulfilled your obligations to me and you let me slip through your fingers." That was my attitude and I was leaving. One of the conditions of me resigning, I was like, look, if I resign I'm all in. I'm back to old form CM Punk. I'm not sleepwalking through this. I'm not just going to be a robot. I'm going to get excited about things again. I'm going to
watch all the matches and I'm going to praise people, yell at people, give people my opinions, and help out guys. That's what I've been doing.

If he ended up staying for the money: "No, it's not about money. It's funny; on Twitter I get a lot of hilarious tweets. I'll be crabby and complain about somebody. I'll have my headphones on in the airport and I'm eating. I don't know if anyone knows what it's like to have someone legitimately walk up to you and wave their hand like an inch away from your face because I have headphones on and I can't hear them. I don't know if anyone knows what that's like but that happens to me multiple times a day then I complain about it, and then on Twitter I get, 'Oh, shut up crybaby. That's why you're rich.' I was rich before I had any money. Being rich has nothing to do with anything monetary. No, it wasn't about money. I'm not a money guy.

"I know people who are wealthy and they're miserable. I was miserable. I was coming to work every day and I was like, 'This is ridiculous. I'm seeing all this stuff. Miz is the main event of WrestleMania. What is wrong with this world? Okay, I gave it all.'"

If Miz has a problem with Punk's comments: "No, Miz knows exactly how I feel. I've told him about it... I think Miz doesn't know how to deal with that. It's just my brutal honesty. I think you got to just let it roll of your back or you get confrontational about it.

"I was strictly basing it on the fact that I was the best bad guy. In my world, the best bad guy wrestles the best good guy. I was specifically told, 'Hey, leading up to WrestleMania we don't really know what you're going to do yet but you're going to be John Cena's little TV feud.' I was like, 'I'm nobody's TV feud. That's bullsh-t.' They just continued to piss me off."

What made him re-sign with WWE: "The chance to change this place. One of my best friends in the world is Lars Frederiksen. He plays guitar for a band called Rancid. He told me a story about when the Ramones went into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Marky didn't want to do it; half of the Ramones were dead. The Ramones, as a band, were always musically shunned and he didn't want to do it. He didn't want to show up, accept the award. Lars told him, "Look, you have to. It's your responsibility. You paved the way for guys like me. You have to go accept this award because you think not accepting it is this big middle finger to the establishment but actually accepting the award and being in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame - that's the middle finger.

"Lars and Joey Mercury, two people who are wise beyond their years, told me, 'You can't change the place from your couch.' I said that on television. That was all real. That's the truth. I couldn't change this place from my couch so I resigned and I'm trying to change it."

If he's happy about re-signing: "I'm very happy. I've never been busier in my entire life. I had conversation with Vince McMahon. I was like, 'Look, I'm not holding you up for money. I'm not holding out for this contract but if you're going to sign me you're going to sign me to the best money deal possible and if it's your prerogative to not use me but pay me that ridiculous amount of money. I don't see you being that stupid.'"

His relationship with Vince McMahon: "Honestly, I don't think if Vince ever got me. I don't think he does. I don't know what's not to get but some people just don't see things. I don't know if this is a good example but I don't know if Vince gets The Rock. Vince gets Cold Stone Steve Austin. He gets that guy. I don't know if he gets The Rock but he recognizes that he's a hell of a talent. I might throw myself in that category. I don't know if Vince 100% gets me but he finally has recognized, 'Alright, this kid is the real deal.'

"I've been the same guy since I stepped foot in the WWE. I've always acted like a top guy, not in the regards of, 'I need a limo and first class travel.' I have never let anybody tell me that I can't or I suck or anything like that. I've always had an air of confidence about me, which always rubs people the wrong way. It's like the whole 'best in the world' thing. If I didn't honestly believe that, and it's obviously borderline narcissistic and egotistical but it's like, well, if you don't think you're the best in the world at what you do then you should at least aspire to be the best. Why do you do what you do?"

If Vince likes to knock people down: "I don't try to run the show. It's his company; it's his baby. I think the WWE has knocked me down a peg or two. That's the most frustrating thing about what we do. I don't know if this is the Brock Lesnar legacy. It's just like holy crap, strap a rocket to this guy and give him everything. Then all of a sudden a year later Brock's like, 'Oh, I want to go home.' I don't know if there's a fear that that's going to constantly happen, which is legitimate. I can see that. You put yourself in Vince's shoes and it's like, okay, I get that.

"I take this responsibility very seriously. When you are the champion and you are on top, you're pulling the train. It's the tradition in pro wrestling where everybody thanks everybody. 'Thank you for the tour.' The guys on top are the ones that are drawing the houses. You're the reason why everyone on the undercard is getting paid. I get being spooked about that. We've done it way too often with guys like Wade Barrett, Sheamus, with me. I remember the first time they made me champion. Raw ratings went up. I got numbers, house show attendance went up. Then it's like you just constantly cut these guys legs out from under them. After awhile it's just like everyone's middle of the road.

Clashes with Vince: "There was the Tony Atlas story. Tony wrote about it in his book but I didn't read it so I don't know exactly how accurate it was. I was ECW Champion at the time. I was still living in Louisville, Kentucky. I would go to OVW still and I would maybe work a Dark Match for them and watch the show, talk to guys. Long story short, there was some backstage OVW politics that unbeknownst to me was going on. I went up to Tony to introduce myself because he was down there to talk to the guys about saving your money and drugs and what not.

"I said, 'Hi, Mr. Atlas. My name's CM Punk. How are you doing?' He grabbed my arm and he's like, 'What is this?' I didn't get where he was going. I was like, 'I don't know what you're talking about. Oh the X's. I'm straight edge and I explained it to him.' He's like, 'No, no, no, your arms. They're taped up.' I was like, 'Yeah, yeah, I tape up my arms so I can 'x' up. It's a straight edge thing.' He looks at me and he says, 'It looks like you have two broken arms.' I was just like, 'Great, okay.' I didn't know where he was going and I was confused. 'Okay, sir, alright.' He said, 'I don't think you get it. If you don't listen to your coaches, you're never going to make it to television.' Then I was like, 'Alright I appreciate whatever this is. Thank you, sir.'

"Then I worked the dark match and we had this great dark match. It was like this eight man tag and there was a whole bunch of talented guys in it. Then in the post show meeting, Tony Atlas goes on and on about how everyone's great, everyone has a great attitude, the show is great, the only match he didn't like was that last one. That last match sucked. There was a guy in it with a bad attitude. He basically just started singling me out. I had already lost my mind at this point. I stood up like legit De Niro, 'Are you talking to me?' He was like, 'Yes, you have a bad attitude and I'm going to put it in the report and I hope you get fired.' He said a lot of ridiculous things.

"I stood up and started walking down and was like, 'Are we fighting?' It turned into this big legendary thing where he just started giving me a bunch of s--t and I gave it right back to him. I was like, 'Look, I'm on television and I'm one of Vince's champions.' It turned into this thing and two weeks later we were in England and Vince is like, "I need to talk to you for a minute.

"He's like, 'The Tony Atlas thing - what happened?' I explained to him the story and he's like, 'These old timers don't watch the show. You got to be respectful.' He said, 'Sometimes, you just got to eat a little s--t. I eat s--t all day. I eat red s--t, green s--t, blue s--t, all kinds of s--t. I'm eating s--t all day.' I laughed and I looked at Vince and said, 'I had eaten enough of his s--t and I was full and he looked a little hungry so I thought maybe he wanted to eat a little s--t of his own.' He smiled and said, 'I like that. That's good.'"

The Rock coming back: "I think it's great. Bottom line is it's a business. If Rock is going to put asses in seats then yay for us. There are a lot of misconceptions about how I feel about it. Obviously people love asking me because they know they're going to get the 100% truth. He comes back and he says that he's never going to leave again and then he doesn't come back for months. Yes, he's doing Survivor Series and, yes, it sold out in a half hour. Let's be honest. It's the Garden and it's the 25th anniversary of Survivor Series. The show was going to sell out but I get the bragging. 'Oh, it sold out in a half hour.'

"I sold out the Garden - me and JBL in a cage match so I have that distinction. I can say that I sold out Madison Square Garden, no matter how ridiculous it sounds. The problem I have with Dwayne is that he came back, he said he's never leaving again and I don't appreciate all this, 'Oh, the WrestleMania buy rate was up. Oh, it's because of Dwayne.' Was it? Or was it because of me and Randy Orton or was it because of Miz and John Cena? That's unfortunately something that you can't really ever figure out. A lot of people like to live and die by the ratings.

"It's a big news story that he came back, absolutely. I think he even tweeted me one time saying something like, 'The Rock in the main event makes more money than CM Punk could in a lifetime,' which is obviously a fallacy. That ultimately is where I have the problem with Dwayne. He lives in a fantasy world. No matter if I like or hate whoever I'm working with, I say, 'hello,' to them. I fraternize with them. It's a brotherhood backstage. I'm with these people more than I'm with my little sisters and my family. I just don't appreciate going from limo to dressing room, from dressing room to the ring and not saying 'hi' to any of the boys.

"That's what he does. I was just at a Guns N' Roses show backstage in Chicago and that's exactly what Axl Rose does and Axl's a lot cooler than Dwayne. Part of me gets it but for anybody who wants to say I have a bad attitude or a chip on my shoulder about it - absolutely. I think anybody should. There are guys in that locker room that bust their ass and there are guys that should be in the main event at WrestleMania. Eventually it will happen for everybody as long as you're passionate about it. I'm passionate about. Yeah, it pisses me off."

R-Truth going Babyface??

-- Regarding R-Truth's suspension, word is that he was informed he failed the Wellness test around the same time as Evan Bourne but was never told he would be suspended and didn't know he was being suspended until November 22nd, the day WWE announced it.

WWE creative also weren't told about the suspension until it happened. As noted before, Vince is turning R-Truth babyface when he returns in part because he sees great potential in Little Jimmy merchandise. Truth's turn is also being done because Vince feels RAW only has two over babyfaces, John Cena and CM Punk, and if one of them gets hurt then the depth would be worse than it is now.

Truth as a face just will NOT work!! I'm sorry. Him pandering to the crowd is exactly what he said he didn't want back when he initially turned!!! God, this makes ZERO sense!!! All because Vince wants to sell more Lil Jimmy merchandise, which would've happened anyway if they had Truth stay the course!

He wasn't making any notice when he was a face, how is this gonna work now???

HALF!!! Actually, more like THREE-QUARTERS!!! lol

The details of Hulk Hogan's divorce settlement with Linda have finally surfaced, years after the actual divorce took place. Linda apparently got 70% of Hogan's liquid assets and 40% ownership of his companies. She also got $3 million in a property settlement and $7.44 million of the $10.4 million that he had in the bank. She also got several cars: a Mercedes Benz, a Cadillac Escalade, a Corvette, a Rolls-Royce, and others. All in all, Linda scored about $30 million in assets from the settlement.

Didn't she marry him prior to him becoming this "global superstar"? If so, like Eddie Murphy said, "she deserves it". If he had all that money BEFORE he married Linda, I would go "aw hell naw" but in this case, woot! Linda!!! That's why he's doing TNA and Rent-A-Center commercials with Troy Aikman now. lol
