Update On "WWE Superstars" Series
By Daniel Pena

-- World Wrestling Entertainment has begun promoting the upcoming "WWE Superstars" series, which is set to debut next month on WGN America.

The program will be based around first-run interpromotional bouts between members of all three WWE brands. The tag line for the series is "Expect Everything."

The company's biggest stars are featured in the series' promotional campaign including John Cena, Triple H, Undertaker, Batista and Jeff Hardy. According to their promotional campaign, the series will feature "the biggest Superstars from Raw, SmackDown and ECW."

The official blurb on the series reads: "The biggest Superstars from Raw, SmackDown and ECW debut on "WWE Superstars" – a one-hour exclusive weekly television show – featuring original matches between any WWE Superstar from any brand, at any time. "WWE Superstars," the only place to see it all! Expect everything. WWE Superstars premieres Thursday, April 16."

WWE.com has launched a section promoting the series, which you can see at the following link.

As reported last month, company officials do actually plan on putting forth effort into the program instead of centering it around the likes of Charlie Haas, "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan and Kung Fu Naki. They plan on having the regularly featured stars appear, as well as its own set of storylines. However, many believe this will only last as long as the program draws adequate ratings to make the extra creative effort worthwhile, and WGN isn't even a top 50 cable station. If nothing else, the show will be around for the long haul as WWE signed a multi-year deal to air the program not to mention that the long-term future of MyNetworkTV remains in question.

Rather than make an announcement on last night's edition of Raw, WWE announced the final inductees to the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2009 on their official website. The Von Erichs will be inducted by Michael "P.S." Hayes at the 2009 WWE Hall of Fame Ceremony the night before WrestleMania 25 on Saturday, April 4, 2009 from the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas.

w00t! I love the Von Erichs! I heard many stories about them from my friends' fathers. XD

Wrestling has been boring since they decided to split the brands because they wanted to hire useless talent that they were going to fire anyways. If they want to have any hope of survival later on they need to ditch the two separate brands and go back to how it used to be.

Actually, Id say thats taking it to far. Smackdown is fine, though they need to look for some better talent. ECW is the one with more trouble. I really dont see the point in it. WWE should get rid of ECW, and send the Extremists to RAW or Smackdown. Agreed? xD

Update On Vince McMahon & Creative Team Issues
By Brad Ingles

WWE creative team members were told to head to Vince McMahon's penthouse condominium in Boca Raton following the Raw tapings in Jacksonville, FL on March 9, as he would be spending the week there. They were told it would be a big meeting to finalize the next few weeks of TV storylines, the direction of WrestleMania 25 and the upcoming Draft in April. Brian Gewirtz and Michael Hayes were told on March 11 via phone that Vince will not attend the meeting and for the team to return to Stamford, CT and come up with options on their own.

They were also told Stephanie McMahon would attend the meeting via teleconference to hear the options. She was described as being frustrated with how Vince has handled the situation.

Lucha Wrestler Abismo Negro Found Dead In Mexico
By Daniel Pena
source: www.f4wonline.com

Andrés Alejandro Palomeque González, better known as Abismo Negro in AAA, was found dead in a river in Mexico yesterday. The lucha wrestler was 37.

No definite cause of death has been determined as of yet, nor has foul play been ruled out.

According to a bus driver who was transporting González and other passengers to Mexico City, González became agitated, almost panicked and demanded to be let off the bus despite it being 1:30 in the morning. After leaving the bus, González found himself lost on the dark hillside, confirmed by a text message he sent to his wife. After receiving the text, his wife contacted local wrestling promoter Vicente Martinez, who organized a search party.

Yesterday morning, González was found floating face down in the river. Medical expert Jesús Enrique Castro López stated that such an anxiety attack could be steroid related, but González' alleged steroid abuse has yet to be confirmed

Early in his career, González went under the ring name Winners, a masked male dancer, who teamed with former WCW wrestler Super Calo during the early glory days of the AAA promotion. At the TripleMania II-A show in April 1994, Winners formed a trio with Rey Misterio and Rey Misterio, Jr. The following year, he lost his mask in a feud with Calo.

González changed his appearance in 1997 and became Abismo Negro in 1997. He wrestled at the 1997 Royal Rumble in San Antonio at the Alamo Dome by taking part in a "Free-For-All" pre-show match alongside Heavy Metal and Histeria. His team lost to Octagón, Blue Demon, Jr. and Tinieblas Jr. He also made two appearances on Raw in March of that year.

In 2004, Abismo Negro appeared in TNA by taking part in the World X Cup Tournament for Team Mexico.

Former TNA Agent Says Christian Was Unhappy In TNA (Interview)
By Brad Ingles

During an appearance on the Submission Radio show, former TNA agent Jerry Lynn said he wasn't surprised Christian left TNA for a WWE return. He said Christian was unhappy with TNA in less than a month of signing with the promotion in 2005 and disliked the company's politics.

According to Lynn, there are many wrestlers not happy in TNA.

"There's a tremendous amount of talent that's not happy there, but they don't say anything because they have nowhere else to go," Lynn said.

Kevin Nash Works Indy Show Over The Weekend, Teams With Troubled Scott Hall
Written by Richard Gray

Kevin Nash and Scott Hall teamed up over the weekend at a Great Lakes Championship Wrestling show in Waukesha, Wisconsin on Saturday night. Hall and Nash took on BG and Kip James, the former New Age Outlaws. Nash worked with a large pad over his elbow as he is recovering from a MRSA staph infection that he caught in Japan back in January. By all accounts Nash carried Hall through the match who wore street clothes and appeared inebriated. Kip James hit his finisher on Hall when Hall went for a tag and Nash got off the apron. After the match, Nash cut a promo on Hall saying he now knows how it feels to be left out in the cold.

As we have previously reported here on Wrestling News World, TNA officials are hoping Nash will be able to work their Lockdown pay-per-view next month. I heard there was talk of putting him in the Lethal Lockdown match if he is able to go but that is not confirmed.

Two TNA Knockouts Have Words, Rhaka Khan's Backstage Reputation
Written by Richard Gray

According to numerous sources, Roxxi and Rhaka Khan got in a heated backstage altercation at a recent TNA show. Roxxi reportedly felt Khan had worked too stiff with her, resulting in her getting a black eye. While it appears unrelated, we reported last week Dixie Carter has made the decision to phase Roxxi off of television.

Rhaka Khan is not well received backstage as many feel she gets special treatment because she is romantically involved with Kurt Angle. This was also something that followed Karen Angle on many occasions.

Kurt Angle Says Karen Cheated On Him With A Wrestler (Interview)
By Michael Bluth

Kurt Angle appeared on Howard Stern's Sirius Satellite radio show this morning and dropped a bombshell regarding what led to his divorce from ex-wife Karen. Here are some of the newsworthy items:

- His Fallout with Vince: Kurt said it started when he told Vince that he needed time off due to a pain pill addiction. "We had a talk and we made amends," Angle said. Kurt said they were "extra strength stuff" and mentioned percoset, five broken necks, up to 65 pills a day and hasn't taken any in four years. He also said, "I don't like to talk about it (his drug problems)." Kurt said despite the fact that he was taking so many pills, they actually made him feel "straight and normal" and needed 20 pills in the morning just to get out of bed. Vince wanted Kurt to kick his pill habit while remaining on the road, which Kurt said would be very hard to do. It took Kurt five months to get off the pills.

- His Divorce from Karen Angle: It happened two months ago and "Karen is a millionaire now," which he doesn't mind as long as his kids are taken care of. Kurt said that someone in the business did something with Karen and implied it was a fellow wrestler. Kurt said he's the one who got her into wrestling and it was a mistake. She'd stay out all night and later tell Kurt she was hanging out with friends in the hotel lobby. Kurt did said he cheated on Karen "a couple of times" while they were separated and feels she may have slept around to get back at him. Kurt put her over as a great mother. Howard asked if it was Vince who Karen cheated with and Kurt said if it was Vince, he would have called to him to say, "I got a storyline for you..."

- His Love for Black Women: Kurt proclaimed his love for Stern's news woman Robin Quivers and read a poem to her. Kurt said he may be in love with Robin and he's dated a black woman since his divorce (later revealing her to be TNA Knockout Rhaka Khan). Kurt thinks he may have a little bit of black in him (he mentioned his butt, his lips and curly hair) which might explain why he's so into black women.

- Mixed Martial Arts Kurt said he's still seriously considering it. "For me, in wrestling or MMA, I would make the same," he said.

TNA No Longer Using ROH Talent, Nigel McGuinness Injury Update

Yeah. Angle is undoubtedly crazy.

Does anyone know if Finlay turned heel?

BHwolfgang March 25th, 2009 3:15 AM

I think Finlay is better off training divas and the tag-teams then wrestle. If he trains them enough where no one would need him to carry out the match, then I think that it'll bring a smile onto the Irishman's face.

Angle has been crazy. Karen cheating on him? He is crazy.

-- Original plans called for the Big Show vs. Edge match to main event last week's edition of SmackDown, but Vince McMahon pulled it from the show and put it on Monday's Raw instead. McMahon then had a blow up because head SmackDown writer Michael Hayes wanted to make last week's SmackDown a loaded show, but told him there are more important things going on right now than the 500th episode of SmackDown. Hayes wanted to do a major Raw vs. SmackDown interbrand match on the 500th episode of SmackDown, but McMahon nixed it as well.

West's Heel Turn
By Daniel Pena

source: Wrestling Observer Newsletter

-- TNA officials have already decided to tone down Don West's heel act. They felt they went too far with it and had to get it under control. West will continue to play a heel, but rather, a subtle heel, like on the last two episodes of Impact. Although, West really only acts heelish when The Beautiful People are wrestling or when the babyfaces do something outrageously stupid.


---------------------------------
Ok, if haven't been watching TNA, your missing one of the best Heal Turn's I've ever seen. Many people say Down West sucks as an announcer, and they would be correct. But this heal turn was so well done, a major surprise for TNA, they should have never stopped it. I was actually on the edge of my seat sometimes when Don West would go heal during a show in the last few weeks. Hes a GREAT heal. Made the announcing all that more entertaining.

Thanks for letting us down again, TNA...

One thing's completely unambiguous: World Wrestling Entertainment (NYSE: WWE) failed with 12 Rounds. The picture looked like it could have done good business, but even big-gun distributor News Corp. (NYSE: NWS) couldn't push this one into the top five. Right now, 12 Rounds is in seventh place with around $5 million in its purse. WWE needed to hit with this one, as I observed in my preview piece. Now, I'm not sure what the movie cost to make. But I've read a couple sources, including this one, that seem to imply that the budget was somewhere around $20 million. I could believe that. No matter what, this couldn't have been an ultra-low budget affair, thus making a $5 million opening weekend simply unacceptable.

So, we have a tale of two media stocks. One scores at the box office, one is down for the count. Take WWE first: this really is a major blow since the company is spending a lot of money to be in the movie business and since its cash-flow statement isn't great right now. The market doesn't seem to see it that way, though. As I write this, shares of WWE are down only 1.9%. That might sound like a lot, but honestly, on a down day like today, it doesn't seem like a bad hit. Vince McMahon needs to work on his movie model, though. My best advice is to work on concept first. Don't try to make the movies mere vehicles for his talent roster. For some reason, that doesn't work. I'm not sure why. On paper, throwing John Cena before the camera should be gold. It's not. The other thing is: don't spend a lot on the projects. Try to make movies for $5 million or less. A lot less. It can be done. I don't think I'd buy WWE today, even on its weakness. I'll need to see more information on how its cash-flow statement is doing during the next quarterly report.

Smackdown Announcer Tazz Departs From WWE
By Brad Ingles

Smackdown announcer Tazz contract expired today and last night's taping of Smackdown was his final WWE broadcast. He has not been on good terms with Vince McMahon and has been yelled at several times. According to friends, Tazz was talked out of confronting Vince at least once about his aggressive production style.

Take that Tazz. I didn't like his match calls anyway.

WrestleMania To Have 3-Man Announce
By Michael Bluth

Jim Ross has posted another blog entry, which can be read in its entirety at JRsBarBQ.com. Some highlights:

The WrestleMania Announce Team: "I am looking forward to manning the ringside broadcast table with the King and Michael Cole on Sunday as all three of us no doubt feel honored to be a part of this historic event. To those of us who earn a living in the business this obviously isn't just another day at the office. It's getting near kickoff time folks and I can't wait."

Former WWE Star In Negotiations To Return
By Daniel Pena

-- In an interview with Michigan Live, Monty Brown (a.k.a. "Marcus Cor Von") said he is in negotiations for a return to World Wrestling Entertainment.

"I had to take some time away for a while on my own terms, but I kept a good rapport with the company and can come back at any time," Brown said. "I've got a lot going and I had a lot going (before leaving the WWE)."

Since his departure from WWE, Brown has pursued other avenues including the much anticipated launch of his own athletic clothing brand — Scripture Clothing.

BHwolfgang April 1st, 2009 8:41 PM

Marcus Cor Von has his eyes on the money for his clothing brand.

Do you know when he'll open it?

Oh? There's no ECW announce team? What a shame..

The Triple H vs Orton and Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels storylines are the best storylines in at least 3 years if you ask me.

The McMahons and Triple H attacking the Legacy and Shawn Michaels getting in the Undertakers head. Finally some good creative writing. Well done WWE, well done.

TNA has equaled or done better then ECW for the past month. I'm sorry I don't have a link for the Angle match.

Also, I'm going to be away all weekend so I'm going to miss Wrestlemania. So no news updates from me ;(

I hope it turns out to be a better PPV then it seems.

Honest April 3rd, 2009 1:29 PM

It seems to be an OK PPV to me. Im looking forward to mostly HHH giving Orton what he deserves, The Hardys fight it out, and Miss Wresltemania. xD

Yeah, TNA seems to be doing way better then ECW. xD

BHwolfgang April 3rd, 2009 9:48 PM

Sorry, but I haven't been watchin' wrestling lately.

I hope all of this is worth it, because the losses of employees will come back someday and bite WWE in the butt.

Angle did how many slams? Kudos. I thought that he's gettin' to that age, but it seems that I'm quite incorrect.

Super Smash Kid April 4th, 2009 5:03 PM

Mewthree, I watched the 20 man cage match on t.v. and I say it was a pretty good cage match I've seen in a while.

bloodex-fire, Ashley has been released from WWE for quite some time now.

As for wrestlermania this seems like the worst Mania ever. Nothing on the card is telling me I should watch that.

Has anyone been watching Ring of Honor on HDNet? if not I recommend you get the channel HDNet or go to youtube and find the member called ROHBrazil and he will give you the complete episode given each saturday.

Why is that? Orton would make a much better champion than Triple H. All Triple H is interested in doing these days is raising his title reigns. Plus, we need a great heel champions cause Edge's gimmick is far too old.

True... But I think Orton is just a little wierd. I liked him like 2 years ago (When he was in SD!) Well, looks like the fields open in my POV. xD

The Fallen April 5th, 2009 1:18 PM

He does have a lot of mistakes.

Anyways, my predictions for tonight:
IC Title:
Rey Mysterio def. JBL (new champion)

25 Diva Battle Royal:
Melina wins

Chris Jericho vs. WWE Legends:
Jericho def. Legends

Money in the Bank Ladder Match:
MVP wins

Hardy vs Hardy:
Jeff Hardy def. Matt Hardy

Tag Team Titles Unification Match:
The Miz & John Morrison def. Primo & Carlito

Shawn Michaels vs Undertaker:
Undertaker def. Shawn Michaels

World Heavyweight Title Triple Threat Match:
John Cena def. Big Show and Edge (Pins Big Show)

WWE Title Match:
Randy Orton def. Triple H (Hopefully...)

Vernikova April 5th, 2009 4:13 PM

It's time for my hopes about the matches before Mania begun.

Diva Battle Royal: Melina

Hardy Fight: Jeff Hardy

Taker vs. Micheals: Taker

Intercontinental: Mysterio

Money in The Bank: Kane (Upset please)

Jericho vs. Legends: I'm feeling for the Legends.

Tag Team Uni.: Carlito and Primo

World Heavyweight: Edge

WWE: Orton.

mewthree w/armor April 5th, 2009 5:53 PM

Undertaker vs. Shawn M. might be a five star match. Good match worked by both.

Cena's clone army made me throw up.

Super Smash Kid April 5th, 2009 6:39 PM

Alright time for me to post what has happend so far in WrestleMania 25.

The Colons vs Miz and Morrison- Colons won (this was taken off the wrestlemania car and was put as dark match on that night)

Money in The Bank Winner- CM Punk

25 Diva Battle Royal- Santina (Santino). There were also some former divas there like victoria, torrie wilson, molly holly

Jericho vs Legends- Jericho won. Hit Flair. Then challenged Mickey Rourke, and then Rourke punched Jericho down and Flair and Rourke partied.

JBL vs Rey Mysterio- Mysterio won title in 21 seconds.

Shawn Michaels vs Undertaker- Undertaker

Edge vs Cena vs Big show- Cena

Haza April 5th, 2009 7:28 PM

The shows are where I developed my crushes for Triple H ad the Rock. Sexy pants yes indeed.

Yes, I would've thought that Cole would have improved by now.

Nidoking54 April 5th, 2009 8:24 PM

I saw most of the Wrestlemania!The Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels was the best match in my opinion.It was great how HBK was able to kick out of a Tombstone Piledriver.5/5 match!

I thought it was stupid that Cena won.It was kool how he carried Big Show and Edge at the same time but the match would have been better of if Edge would have retained his title.But thats only my opinion!

I really wasn't that into Triple H vs Randy Orton.I played my ruby version for half the match! It was unexpected how Randy hit the RKO early on in the match and how Triple H gave Randy a big @$$ woooping in the end! but I sincerely didn't like it that much.

Jeff Hardy vs Matt Hardy was better than I expected!The only downside I can think off is that Jeff should have Swanton bombed Matt threw the two tables not just jump in top of him.Besides that it was awesome.

The legends were great during the Jericho vs Legends match!Rick "the dragon" Steamboat did some really nice manuveres!I didn't see much of the beggining of the match so I can't say anything else!The Mickey Rourke punching Jericho was kind of dum in my opinion!

Well its great to have wrestling and pokemon fans out there!!This is a really nice thread!!

The most predictable thing (other than the Undertaker winning) was Cena winning the World Heavyweight Championship and the most retarded thing was Santino winning the Miss WrestleMania Battle Royal.

It's good to see that WWE didn't keep The Miz and John Morrison as the World Tag Team Champions. Don't get me wrong I like them as a tag team but I was starting to think that WWE was losing faith in the tag team division and would just keep The Miz and John Morrison as WWE Tag Team Champions for a year or so like last time.

mewthree w/armor April 6th, 2009 6:11 AM

We'll lets this trainwreak started the right way. This might have been the worst Wrestlemania in years. Period. One big Trainwreak.

C.M. Punk defeated Christian, Shelton Benjamin, MVP, Kofi Kingston, Finlay (w/Hornswoggle), Mark Henry (w/Tony Atlas), and Kane in the Money in the Bank ladder match
Ok Match. Some decent crazy spots. I think Cage would have been a better winner.

Santino Marella won the 25-Diva Battle Royal in 6:05.
Pathetic

Chris Jericho defeated Ricky Steamboat, Roddy Piper, and Jimmy Snuka (w/Ric Flair) in an elimination match
NOT a bad match. Entertaining infact. All three HOF's looked in EXCELLENT shape. Roddy Piper, for a man who fought cancer, was great in the match. The person who might have stole the show was Ricky Steamboat. He looks SPECULAR! Rourke coming in was ok.

Matt Hardy defeated Jeff Hardy in an Extreme Rules match
The match was ok, but for me didn't flow real well. Props to both though.

Rey Mysterio defeated JBL to win the Intercontinental Title
Pathetic. Welcome to the Smackdown announce table, JBL!

Undertaker defeated Shawn Michaels
Possibly a 5 star match. Both worked the match so well, I thought we were back in the late 90's. Both looked good, we saw a million counters.

John Cena defeated Edge and Big Show in a Triple Threat match to win the World Hvt. Championship
Horrible Horrible Pairing and ending. Cena pulled his superman routine again and won after getting his but kicked for most of the match.

Triple H beat Randy Orton for the WWE Title
These two shouldn't be allowed to work matches together. Because they can't. And because it was the final match of the WWE's biggest PPV, they should NOT have interference.

BHwolfgang April 6th, 2009 6:50 AM

From what I've heard, Vince and the creative department failed terribly into making this the best Wrestlemania.

What about the Hall of Fame? I thought Hogan was suppose to show....

The Money in the Bank Match

What?! Why would Punk win again? He failed in his first time. Hopefully, he succeeds in making this right. Cage, Kingston, or MVP should've won. That's where the potential is.

25-Diva Battle Royal

From what I heard, it was horrible. Santino wins?! What were they thinking?!

Jericho vs. Legends

This sounds like a good match. Ricky performed? Oooo, that sounds pretty interesting.

Matt Hardy vs. Jeff Hardy

Did the match involved weapons? I hoped that there was tension showing through the match..

Mysterio vs. JBL

I heard that this match was twenty-one seconds......

'Taker vs. HBK

I have no doubt that this is indeed the match of the night. I'm sorry if this is biased, and even if I didn't see the match; I know that the match sold.

The last, two match was sounded sooooo horrible that I can't even give it a chance.

Honest April 6th, 2009 11:23 AM

Well, the results are in, and most of the matches were wack... but...

The Money in the Bank Match

Punk again? Well, Im not surprised, seeing that Edge has been Mr. MiTB. But I was hoping Kane or Cage, honestly.

25-Diva Battle Royal

Hmmmm.... I aalways knew Santino was really a girl.... (This match was WAAAAAAACK) If ANY Diva could have won, I would have wanted it be Stacy Kiebler. Seeing that She wasnt in the match, Melina

Jericho vs. Legends

Jericho won, huh? Well, thats kinda not what I excpected but...

Matt Hardy vs. Jeff Hardy

Now this match was wack. How did Matt move from the dive of the ladder? Then A Twist of Fate onto the chair... this is completly the opposite of what I expected

Mysterio vs. JBL

21 seconds of butt whooping? Well, at least it made JBL Look bad.

"The match will be in history" (JBL) Well, he wasn't wrong, was he? xD

'Taker vs. HBK

Best match as far as Im concerned. Taker has to live it till 20. 16 is just a wierd number to end a streak....


The Triple Threat Match:

Cena? Hmmmm.... Well, I guess its ok...

HHH vs. Orton

Looks like Orton got the @$$ whooping I was wishing for...... Though I didnt mind if he won it. xD



Its not the best Wresltemania. One of the worst honestly. Id give it a 3.5/5



Vernikova April 6th, 2009 5:06 PM

Tag Team Titles
Nothing much to say really.

25- Diva Bbattle Royal
Santina winning was quite epic.

Intercontinental Championship
21 seconds of shame. Is WrestleMania going to start stringing these short matches.

Jericho vs. The Legends
I was on the fence about this initially but I ended up choosing wrong anyway.

Hardy Fight
I wanted Matt to win the fight. I seriously dislike Jeff's character and his fall will be a sweet one to watch.

17 - 0
The best match of the night. I enjoyed it from middle to the end. I found the beginning to be boring to be honest.

Money in The Bank
CM Punk won. That's nice I guess.

World Heavyweight Championship
The writers sure do love John Cena. :\

WWE Championship
I wanted Orton to win but whatever.

By the end of the night, I went 3 for 9 in all. Pretty bad.

BHwolfgang April 6th, 2009 5:54 PM

If my calculations are correct, Bloodex's rating would be a 70/100 and Warped's rating is a 33/100. Those are pretty bad scores.

Which one do you think is better? Wrestlemania 24 or Wresltemania 25?

Vernikova April 6th, 2009 6:09 PM

At the last PPV, I was 80/100 so I dropped by 57. In my opinion though, WrestleMania 24 was better than 25.

Insurance Company Vetoes Rourke's WrestleMania Match; Full Details
Written by Ryan Gray on Apr 7, 2009

Guardian.co.uk has an article online on why Mickey Rourke wasn't allowed to work a match at WrestleMania 25. According to the article, the Insurance Company working on his new film Iron Man 2 vetoed the decision. They said under no circumstances would he be allowed to get into the ring. Mickey told reporters at WrestleMania 25 that his agents also said it would be detrimental to his career to take the focus off of acting after making a comeback in The Wrestler.

Consequently, Rourke still defied the insurance company and his agents by doing an impromptu bout with Chris Jericho. You can read the article at this link.

NBA Playoffs To Determine Host Venue For June WWE PPV
Written by Devin Cutting

WWE currently does not know which venue in New Orleans will host the Extreme Rules pay-per-view on June 7th, 2009. The original plan was for the event to be held at the New Orleans Arena. However, if the New Orleans Hornets need the New Orleans Arena on June 7th for a playoff game, WWE will be forced to move the Extreme Rules show to the Lakefront Arena at the University of New Orleans.

WWE's YouTube Account Suspended
By Daniel Pena

galford3427 April 7th, 2009 5:47 PM

Here is my take on WM25, it lacked the theatrics of past WM. Very few over the top entrances that we have come to expect and overall a very few OMG moments. They didn't need to give Kid Rock all that time. I would have liked to have seen the divas come out and give the returning Divas like Molly Holly and Sunny individual entrances. I didn't even know they were in the match until King said something.

The MITB match had good moments and I was hoping that since thy gave Punk that case that later on in the night they were going to have Orton win and then Punk would cash in the case that night and win the title and get retribution on Orton for punting him in the head last year.

HBK and the Undertaker stole the show, it was by far the best match of the night. There were so many times that I didn't know which way they were going to go and when Micheals kicked out of the Tombstone I was like wow they aren't just giving Taker a win this year.

Cena, Edge, Big Show was a bore plain and simple. They need to quit pushing Cena so much just because the kids love him. I would have liked to see a different outcome.

Didn't it look like Ricky Steamboat had not lost a step at all. He still looked in great shape and could still fly.

Jeff and Matt, well good match but could have been better.

Triple H and Orton was a let down, they should have done what I said and have Trips hit Orton with the sledge, get DQ and loose the title then have Punk come out and win.

I just missed the WM moments we come to expect.
