Re: Some Wrestling News
Since when is being heavy an issue? Never seemed to be a problem in the past, from Dusty Rhodes to Mark Henry. That sounds kind of odd to me.

Re: Some Wrestling News
Dusty Rhodes is different in that he was from a different time. A time before Wrestlers were dropping dead and people really started thinking about the effects of being over weight.
Mark Henry looks like a typical Worlds strongest Man competitor and weight lifter which he was before he joined the WWE and in his earlier years.
Armando Estrada was at a recent Smackdown taping talking with WWE officials, no word yet on what they might be talking about.
There is a strong feeling that Wrestling Great Abdullah the Butcher could be the next member of the Hall of Fame. He lives in the Atlanta area and is a favorite of many wrestlers and inspired many more. He Started wrestling in the 1950's and was still wrestling in 2010 in Japan at 69 years old. Some call him the father of Hardcore wrestling.

Re: Some Wrestling News
Kelly Kelly has not been fired in fact I hear that the WWE is actually happy with Kelly Kelly and the progress she has made in the last year, her match with Alicia Fox in NXT had a lot of people talking and she looked very good in her "last match" She also was impressive on the mike on Smackdown.
Now I don't know what will happen but it does look as if she was starting a feud with Vickie so I would expect someone to show up, Teddy or Vince, and put Vickie in her place, as she has been abusing her power, and then rehiring Kelly who then picks up the feud

Re: Some Wrestling News
We could have yet another retirement at Wrestlemania, but don't count on it this year. Edge recently commented that he is considering retiring when Wrestlemania is in his home town of Toronto. So we could see The Rock and Trish enter the Hall of Fame and the end to Edge's in ring career.

Re: Some Wrestling News
Really? That's too bad...I like Edge, but it's been seeming lately that they're winding things down for him. Ah well, like Shawn he's been hurt enough times I can understand him wanting out.

Re: Some Wrestling News
yeah, kind of hard to believe he has been wrestling in the WWE for over 10 years and has been wrestling for almost 20 years

Re: Some Wrestling News
Undertaker vs Wade Barett which has been the believed match for Wrestlemania, with Shawn Micheals involved, is off. This change is leaving many to wonder who the Undertakers opponent, with HBK said to be involved in some way many wonder if we'll see someone with ties to HBK take on the Undertaker. This also comes on the heels of the Wrestling Observer reporting that while there have been no formal communications since last week there is interest on both sides and they are the closest they have ever been.
Triple H's return is being delayed until after the Elimination chamber as there are no plans to have him win the match so there isn't much point to involve him.
McMahon addressed the question of who the Next Cena might be during a conference call with investors and listed off three Wrestlers he sees as the next "face" of the company. Randy Orton, Alberto Del Rio and as I have said a couple times The Miz. It's unclear if he means that they will be the next Cena, who is the WWE's highest grossing star as none of the three can even come close to his numbers.

Re: Some Wrestling News
God, I will never understand why they are so sold on The Miz. He's an annoying little !@#$.
Orton I can see and even DelRio, but Miz? Please!

Re: Some Wrestling News
I'll give him his due, he has improved a lot since he first entered the WWE, but I wouldn't look at him to be a leader of the company and I don't know if I could trust that he'll stick around.
Something else that Vince is interested in is turning Kelly Kelly Heel, Wrestlezone is reporting that he "wants the Diva to make a dramatic "first heel turn" in the company as he currently views her as a the most marketable female in WWE."
This would be something a long the lines of when Trish was a heel, she was the female face of the WWE while also in a program with Vince McMahon and feuding with Stephine McMahon.

Re: Some Wrestling News
Hmmm...interesting. Don't know why she'd have to be a heel in order to be the female face of the company but I could see that working.
