Ken Kennedy Injured
By Michael Bluth

-- Ken Kennedy made his in-ring return on Raw last night after being out of action for several months with a shoulder injury. Kennedy was a surprise participant in the "Lakers vs. Nuggets" 10-man tag match, but his return may be short lived. PWInsider.com reports that Kennedy injured his wrist during the match while taking an RKO from Randy Orton. There's no word yet on whether he'll miss any time, but this is another tough break for the fragile superstar. Kennedy has been injured for a considerable portion of his 4-year WWE career, missing 2 out of the last 4 WrestleManias.

-- The man who played Denver Nuggets owner Stan Kroenke last night on Raw was Troy Stone, an NWA ring announcer. (Source: PWInsider.com)

Oh, great. Estobon is ognna have a heart attack with Kennedy injured.....again. Feel sorry for that guy.

I was not expecting the 10th guy to be Kennedy....:\

 

[Vernikova]

I'm not sure, but it's possible.

Mewthree did say that the staff would be working more on rising superstars, so there are high hopes for people such as CM Punk.

They'll probably mess up by trying to hard. Wrestling is in a down cycle right now so they should try to advertise more like the whole Denver fiasco a week or so back.

 

[BHwolfgang]

Besides I don't really find him championship matieral..

He has potential. I mean, his match with Somoa Joe scored a 5 Star, which is next to impossible in the wrestling world of America.

I haven't been interested in Wrestling since the olden days.

Aren't we all?

Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mr. Kennedy's back! Are you all as excited as I am?

No.

 

[EstebanOrt77]

Oh, great. Estobon is ognna have a heart attack with Kennedy injured.....again. Feel sorry for that guy.

Sadly, you're right. Why?!?!?!? Life is so cruel. I was hoping MVP & Kennedy would be Tag Team Champions>

I am about to cry. -_-

At least we have MVP!!!!!(Isn't MVP cool?)

 

[Sweet Visions]

All my friends are into wrestling and this fellow named Ray Mysterio or something.

 

[EstebanOrt77]

Imagine Kennedy as World Champion. That would be awesome. But you people hate Kennedy for some reason. -_-

It's not that I hate him. It's just that he isn't very high on my tolerable list since there are very few wrestlers I can stand these days. In another time, late 90's, another name, WWF, perhaps. Not now though.

 

[Honest]

Mysterio is a Lucha Libre wrestler, Vision, FYI. :)

Kennedy has potential...it's just that he gets injured WAY to much...though MVP and him as tag team champs isn't THAT bad.....:P

 

[ravenboy9]

Well, who do y'all think will win in the TNA Fatal 4 Way at Lockdown(I think that's the PPV)

 

[Honest]

Nice of you to join us, Raven. :P

Well, I heard that it was good. Was that the match with Foley in it?

WWE Hands Out Free Tickets
By Daniel Pena

source: The Sun

-- In perhaps a first for World Wrestling Entertainment, they had people handing out free tickets all over Los Angeles on Monday — even outside the STAPLES Center before the show. The heavily papered show ended up drawing 8,000 to 9,000 fans.

While the Los Angeles Times ran a story saying Monday's Raw was sold out at a "special limited capacity," and Michael Cole claimed several times during the live broadcast that the building was "at capacity," in reality, the upper level seats were tarped off and darkened. Furthermore, most of the concession stands were closed.

It was also announced during the show that anyone who attended last night's SmackDown/ECW taping could get a ticket for half price if they showed their used ticket stub at the box office.

He has potential. I mean, his match with Somoa Joe scored a 5 Star, which is next to impossible in the wrestling world of America.

That was in ROH. If McMahon were to see it that way Punk would have had a big title reign here in WWE rather than a short one.

At least we have MVP!!!!!(Isn't MVP cool?)

No I don't like that power ranger. I hate him even more as a face.

Well, who do y'all think will win in the TNA Fatal 4 Way at Lockdown(I think that's the PPV)

Your pretty late man. Lockdown was Sting vs Foley in a cage match for the title.

The Fatal 4 Way you are talking about is in Sacrifice. Which Stong won. BUT is not the champion because he pinned Kurt Angle. In order for him to have the title he had to beat Foley. So since Kurt Angle lost to Sting, Sting is the new MEM owner. (Because thats what Kurt Angle had to Sacrifice)

The next PPV is Slammiversary. Which the main event for it is King of The Mountain match.

 

[ravenboy9]

Haha, I guess I'm a bit late and confused. I lost a bit of TNA interest when Foley was bragging about 25 stiches, when he's had way worse done to him.... What ever happened to Shark Boy? I thought they were going to bring him back when I saw him in the ODB Date segements.

 

[EstebanOrt77]

If you guys don't like MVP or Kennedy, then who do you like???

Shark Boys house burned down IRL, he might still be dealing with that.

 

[BHwolfgang]

That was in ROH. If McMahon were to see it that way Punk would have had a big title reign here in WWE rather than a short one.

That shows that he has the potential and the talent. Now, all he needs if McMahons's approval and a good story to back him up.

If you guys don't like MVP or Kennedy, then who do you like???

I like 'Taker, HBK, Mysterio, Jimmy Wang Yang, Shannon Moore, Jeff Hardy, Matt Hardy, etc…

 

[Super Smash Kid]

If you guys don't like MVP or Kennedy, then who do you like???

Edge, Swagger, Bourne, Punk (not a lot)

Unforgiven...they should have kept that that name and The Great American Bash should have changed to Breaking Point.
Isn't Vegenace now being called Night of Champions?

 

[ravenboy9]

Iactually voted Submission Sunday for the new submission based PPV. But how is that going to work? Only 2-3 wrestlers actually have a submission finisher.

Yes, and they failed. I missed Vegeanace

Iactually voted Submission Sunday for the new submission based PPV. But how is that going to work? Only 2-3 wrestlers actually have a submission finisher.

I hope that this is where the new superstars would come in.
