I'm getting tired of the Undertaker. I've BEEN tired of Triple H.

Oh God. Here we go again....it's the yearly appearance of the Dead Man.

Taker/Trips Pt. II. Their first match wasn't the be all to end all, so I'm not looking forward to this one. That was an obvious wig he had on as well. Could've been part of the reason why he didn't remove his hat, and may not remove his hat until the actual WM match. Lol!

And if Trips was going to fire Johnny Ace, why will he STILL have a job after tonight (which I'm sure will be the case)? Just because he got interrupted means the termination is now off the table?? That's WWE for ya.

It's actually the 3rd match between Taker and Trips. They just like pretending that 1st match never happened!

exactly! wasn't it wrestlemania XX that taker and trips went at it their first time?

Actually, it was 17.

-Since the WWE Network is delayed, they're using Youtube probably as a taster. Not many of those shows seem too interesting

-Cena got bullied? I watched his DVD and it was stated that he was popular growing up. Hmmmmm....

-I'm liking Daniel Bryan's new heel role. The any way to win role is gold

-Honestly, I was annoyed when Taker interrupted "Aitch". I'd like to see Foley be the General Manager

-Keep Eve and Kelly Kelly the entire fuck away from the ring

-What is this crying while STILL IN THE RING while Kane is coming? The fuck you doin' just standing there crying while he's slowly walking up to you?

-Was Dolph even on tonight's show? I must've missed his segment

-Brodus Clay is lame, but them girls.......cameraman behind them needs an honor

-Nice to see Undertaker return rockin' that new lacefront

Yeah, I was wondering what was so damn special about the WWE on YouTube. It's not like they haven't had a channel there before. It was called WWEFanNation. I guess this one is for original content, I suppose. And you're right, this is to sorta supplement the push back of the network.

I'd like to see Foley as GM too.

Where was Kharma? Was she back only for the Rumble and will be held off until a month before WM? According to Wikipedia, she had her baby on 12/31, so I would assume she was back to being "full-time". Eve did the same thing with Kane SLOWLY going after her just like all the Divas did when Kharma was stalking them. It gets redundant to hear Cole say they're still in the ring because they're "frozen in fear". Right. Ever heard of fight or flight?

WWE Diva I Dropped a Few Pounds ... Out of My Uterus

Everybody relax ... WWE diva Kharma did NOT wrestle pregnant Sunday night at Royal Rumble 2012 -- TMZ has learned, she gave birth to her baby a few weeks ago ... and she's already back in ass-kicking shape.

Kharma -- real name Kia Stevens -- announced her pregnancy 8 months ago before going on maternity leave from the wrestling company.

There had been no mention of the wrestler since -- so when Kharma made her surprise return Sunday night, there was some speculation she was still knocked up when she entered the ring.

Others thought there might have been some complication with her pregnancy because she only made the announcement 8 months ago ... a month less than it takes to hatch a kid.

But all is well -- sources close to the wrestler tell us, Kharma gave birth to a healthy baby boy named Jamie on December 31st.

Kharma and her wrestler fiance -- the guy who bought her that awesome wrestling-ring ring last month -- are set to tie the knot in June. Mazel tov!

what kills me is that they remain in the ring, while they are walking down a ramp..not running..WALKING ..they can't duck under the ropes and hop over the rail or run around a square ring

Take that lace front off, Taker, and be who you really are!!

Smackdown Spoilers (to be aired 2/3/12):

Smackdown Opener:

Smackdown opens with Teddy Long announcing the Elimination Chamber participants. The Smackdown Chamber match will officially feature: Daniel Bryan, Wade Barrett, Cody Rhodes, Big Show, Mark Henry and Randy Orton. Henry comes out to complain about his odds in the match and asks for a title match tonight. Long says he's out of the Chamber match and has no title match tonight. Henry puts his hands on Long, so Long suspends Henry. Henry said if he's suspended he might as well get his money's worth. As he goes to further attack Long, out comes Sheamus who hits Henry with a Brogue Kick.

Sheamus, Cody Rhodes In-Ring Segment

Sheamus starts a promo, but is immediately interupted by Cody Rhodes. He says he'll be the first double title holder since Ultimate Warrior. Teddy Long makes a match for Cody and the Great White next.

Sheamus vs. Cody Rhodes

The Sheamus vs. Cody Rhodes match was back and forth. Finish came when Sheamus hit the Celtric Cross, just like how Finlay used to do it. Sheamus scores the pin after the big move for the victory.

Justin Gabriel vs. Hunico

Cody Rhodes remains at ringside looking quite angry as the next match hits the ring. It's Justin Gabriel vs. Hunico. The match ended in a no contest because Rhodes attacked Gabriel before the match even started. After that Hunico and Camacho jumped in and attacked Gabriel until The Great Khali came down to make the save. Khali lays out Hunico and Camacho as Rhodes runs away.

Backstage Segment: Drew McIntyre, Teddy Long, Santino, Hacksaw Jim Duggan, Aksana

Backstage, Drew McIntyre and Teddy Long are speaking. Long tells McIntyre that he has to go impress him. Santino runs in saying he found a new tag-team partner and the name is Santin-hooooo! With that said, we find out it's Hacksaw Jim Duggan. Long makes a non-tag-title match, which will be up next. After that, we get the usual Teddy and Aksana stuff.

-The Mike Tyson WWE Hall Of Fame video package airs.

Primo & Epico vs. Santino & Hacksaw Jim Duggan

The Primo and Epico vs. Santino and Hacksaw Jim Duggan match was a back and forth affair with a lot of "U.S.A." chants. Primo ends up hitting the Backstabber on Santino when Rosa distracted him. Primo scored the pin for his team.

In-Ring Segment: Daniel Bryan, Big Show & A.J.

World Heavyweight Champion Daniel Bryan comes out and tells everyone that they should be vegans. He explains that he's a great role model and says he should be in the Elimination Chamber and Big Show doesn't deserve to be in. This brings out the Big Show. He says he would have been out sooner but he just finished a great big steak. They go back and forth on the mic for a bit until Bryan pokes Show and Show beats him up for it. Show goes to hit him with the Show Stopper but stops mid-way through because A.J. comes back.

Brodus Clay vs. Heath Slater

Up next was Brodus Clay vs. Heath Slater. This was basically a squash match. Drew McIntyre comes out after Clay picks up the victory and attacked Brodus, but ultimately ended up getting beat up by him as well.

Beth Phoenix & Natalya vs. Aksana & Tamina

This was another squash match, with Beth Phoenix and Natalya defeating Aksana and Tamina in about 45 seconds. Natalya tried putting Aksana in the Sharp Shooter, but Tamina makes the save and hits the big splash. They seemed to tease some tension between Natalya and Phoenix afterwards.

Elimination Chamber Change

After the Divas tag-match, they showed a promo that announced that The Great Khali will replace Mark Henry in the Smackdown Elimination Chamber match.

No DQ Match: Randy Orton vs. Wade Barrett

The main event featured Randy Orton taking on Wade Barrett in a no disqualification match. The two go back and forth outside the ring, using chairs and hitting each other on the guard rails. The match went back and forth the entire time. The finish came when Orton hit Barrett with two RKOs. Teddy Long came out and said Orton will face Daniel Bryan next week. That part may have been after the match.

Dark Match Main Event: Big Show vs. Daniel Bryan

Big Show is sweeping the ring with a broom and cut a promo on Bryan being trash. It was a typical match between the two. It ended with them being outside the ring and Jinder Mahal and Drew McIntyre attacked Show to end the night. Show ended up clearing the ring of all the bad guys, and won the match by DQ.

Looks like Henry's finally gonna be out because of his injury, but putting the Great Khali in his place in the Elimination Chamber????? WTF?!!! This talent roster is the absolute thinnest it's been in ages, it seems!

Chyna must be on that shit again. Another rant (half the shit doesn't even make any sense!):

Chyna hit Twitter today and went on a long rant, discussing Vince McMahon, being a big star for VIVID and rape on tape. Here is some of what she posted:

"Tell you what . When you start treating me like the World Champion Queen of Sports Japan and grappling w best in the world and compare my

"and the reason for Vince McMahons Billion Dollar company and all the effort and hard work that never ends even in the face of abuse, and

"and violence and rape tapes and cyber horror and gossip and accusations about drugs or alcohol or anything else. And you treat me like the

"Star that I AM. VIVIDS Biggest right now and I feel safe and rested and am happy with all info..just to show up, on time. Then we'll talk.

"Until then. Everything cancelled till further notice. As far as extra bookings. My agent btw?? Is me. I'm good with me. Not good w media

"If I have to do this TILL I'M BLUE IN THE FACE!!!!! I will! When u stop and say no more. Stop pushing me (ahem that's mild) u recall a lot!

"Plain and simple watch Ali and Foreman fight! If ur still a wrestling fan right now there's really something wrong. Crazy! Yeah, they are!

"the Death pool thing is disgusting. Does Vince think this is funny? You should ask him? Very entertaining right? Better yet just shut up.

"Untill anyone has been raped on tape, extorted, abused and had broken hip neck ribs and had their eyeballs squeezed out of their eyeballs?"

Ouch. Yet, oh so true!

A WWE employee texted a UFC employee during Saturday's show on FOX to say their production is terrible. The WWE employee received a text back reading, "At least we don't have an imbecilic lead announcer ruining our show."

OUCH indeed. It seems EVERYONE knows Michael Cole is not good for business. He's one of the reasons I've stopped watching wrestling altogether.

John Morrison recently spoke about his choice to leave WWE and more, here are he highlights…

On The Birth of the Morrison Character: The "Morrison" character was born in ECW… a child of spite and stardom. I felt like I evolved into a great singles wrestler in ECW because of the opportunities to speak, and wrestle longer matches. Miz & Morrison, "The Greatest Tag Team of the 21st Century," was fun because Miz and I have great comedic chemistry for backstage segments, and our internet show the Dirt Sheet. Also I felt like more of a leader than when I was with MNM.

On Leaving WWE: I was starting to accumulate injuries faster than they were healing… neck surgery, and a lot of nagging injuries; shoulder, knee, ankle- I decided that time off is my best option. I'm working on elevating every part of my game during the time I have off, physical in ring stuff and mic work.

On Vince McMahon as a Boss: Vince is a perfectionist, a work-a-holic, and a micro-manager. He expects everyone to work as hard as he does, and he really does work like a mad man. He cares very much about his business, and you have to respect that about him. If I had to pick out any one flaw, I'd say that I think it would behoove him to delegate more. Give power to others in the organization for longer periods of time without allowing them to be undermined.

Those two been wrestling for ages

Watched TNA Impact a couple of hours ago

they were in Wembley Arena in London and the place looked PACKED. Probably the biggest audience TNA has had

Magnus and Samoa Joe vs Crimson and Matt Morgan was kinda forgettable. I'm going to have to watch it again to give a better opinion ot it

Mark Haskins vs Austin Aries was the best match of the entire show. Aries is one hell of a wrestler and a really consistent worker

Gail Kim vs Tara....the WWE Divas could NEVER pull a match like this off. The Knockouts hold their own on the card and sometimes have better matches than the men. Tara's finisher is one of the most painful looking moves I've ever seen

Hogan's back *yawn* and his body is getting into Flair territory. The Bischoff segment was absolutely horrible. Eric's son, Garrett, looks like a complete tool and obviously moving ahead because of his dad. Hogan even did that "windup punch" shit

Again, what a difference a live and active crowd makes. They didn't even need to overdub audience noise like they usually do

i watched it too and the bobby rude vs the cowboy was a good match as well. and ur right, the divas can never pull off a match as good and probably never will. just wished they had more of the knockouts tho
