I gotta give Brooke credit for one thing. She does her father's hand to the ear taunt really well. I completely expected her to look like an idiot as soon as I noticed she was doing it.

From: ShatteredElysium | #100
Were the Bellas actually fired? I know their contracts expired but were they offered a new deal and they refused or just flat out weren't offered anything?

Seems weird that they would give them the title on the way out if they weren't wanted.
A nice acknowledgement of their contributions to the company, especially since they knew they'd drop it right away.

Now the Bries can collectively be former Diva's champions, instead of just one of them. Was a nice thing to do!

Also is that seriously Maryse in that pic? Her face looks... so young. Almost unrecognizable imo.

Like I said in the chat, Michael Cole should be slapped once per show as a basic requirement.

Since it's been about six months since Punk put him in the Vice, I was happy to see Cole get the crap beat out of him. The REAL main event was Cena/Tensai which was a perfectly serviceable match anyway. Don't get me wrong, it was trashy and a very filler Raw, but eh. There was catharsis.

Whoa:

Randy Orton's future with WWE is uncertain following their announcement Wednesday that he was being suspended for 60 days for his second violation of the Talent Wellness Program. SuperLuchas.net reports the SmackDown wrestler met with Chairman Vince McMahon, Executive Vice President of Talent and Live Events Paul Levesque and Executive Vice President of Television Production Kevin Dunn at the organization's headquarters in Stamford, Connecticut on Friday to discuss his future with the organization.

A WWE source described the meeting's atmosphere as "hostile;" it was determined that a further decision concerning Orton awaits. The report adds there are "several" officials lobbying for his termination as a cost-cutting measure. They feel his lucrative ten-year contract—signed in January 2010—can no longer be justified if he is brought back in a mid-level role. His second suspension hinders WWE from continuing to feature Orton in headline role since a third drug-testing policy infraction would result in automatic termination.

McMahon is especially infuriated with Orton, who felt he had matured in recent years. The nine-time world champion's suspension reportedly stems from a positive drug test for the anabolic steroid Dianabol, which is banned by the United States Congress under its Controlled Substances Act. He also reportedly tested positive for marijuana, which is subject to a $2,500 fine.

That's pretty crazy. Could you picture Randy Orton just getting outright terminated like that?

Something I've been wondering about Tensai:

You've got a monster heel who doesn't talk. So fine, give him a manager, right? But Sakamoto DOESN'T TALK EITHER! What is he even FOR?

- Kelly Kelly has been given some time off by WWE. A source within the company said that Kelly has been on the road full-time since 2006, noting, "She's been here since he was a kid. She had been pushing for time away to spend with her family and her boyfriend. Six years for someone of her age [25 years old] is a lifetime. She needed a break."

Several people within the company don't believe she's returning soon if at all. Kelly has started to use her given name, Barbie Blank, in the public eye and is starting to take endorsements and appearances outside of WWE sources. Her last televised appearance was the May 21st Raw, while she last worked the May 26th house show.

I know K2's not very popular around these parts, but I've always felt that she legitimately cared about her role in the industry and that's all I ever ask. I wish her the best.

If my Twitter detective skills are up to snuff, I'm pretty sure that she and the Bellas were very close and I have to imagine suddenly being on the road without them is rough for her.

Joey Ryan sez:

On whether he was shocked by the outcome: "They didn't give me any indication. I mean I know from the kind of drama for television that someone was going to say no and someone was going to say yes…And I didn't know who the third judge was going to be until we went out there. When I got out there, I kind of felt like I was part of some kind of agenda or greater idea of Gut Check as a whole rather than one individual performance."

On whether the Gut Check is a work: "People are going to think what they want. Everyone is smarter than pro wrestling. At least they think they are. TNA is very gung ho about this reality based thing for at least this segment. They didn't tell me anything. The information I knew was very minimal. They just said "you're going to go out there and they are going to judge you." I don't think they expected my reaction to it because I'm sure they are used to guys who just want to do business and do the right thing and even if they get rejected they will say "thank you sir and thanks for the opportunity". I wasn't going to sit there and have anybody talk down to me about my career and my life because they don't know what I've been through. They don't know the struggles I have gone through. They don't know all the times in the Indy scene that I've heard three no's to 1 yes that I have gotten for any booking I have ever done. Getting told no doesn't faze me. I always bounce back."

On his confrontation with Taz: "I definitely don't think Taz saw what was coming. It was very heated. He actually wanted to confront me after the show. He went back to commentary after and he was looking for me after the show, but a couple of friends backstage tried to calm him down. They told me it was best to avoid him. Honestly I didn't see him after the show and I haven't talked to him. I've read his tweets a little bit, but haven't talked to him after the show since."


This is some of the most f***ed up kayfabe-within-a-kayfabe-within-a-kayfabe s*** I've ever seen.

I still hold strong to my mantra of "Everything you see on TV (except some injuries) is a work."

Everyone is so excited that @CMPunk mentioned me on Raw. Newsflash...I don't give a s***. Mind ur own business and stop rippin me off Punk.

Just looking through the B8WatchesRaw chat log and found this. I KNEW there was a reason I was so hyped for the Punk/Jericho feud.

New list from WWE.com!

The Top 10 World Champions of the 21st Century

For the purposes of this list, they are only counting reigns from January 1st, 2000 to today, but it includes the WWE Championship, the World Heavyweight Championship, and the WCW Championship.

1.) John Cena
2.) Triple H
3.) Edge
4.) The Undertaker
5.) CM Punk
6.) Randy Orton
7.) Batista
8.) Chris Jericho
9.) Kurt Angle
10.) Booker T

CM Punk WAY too high, I'd probably swap Jericho and Angle, and also swap Batista and Undertaker.

Hard to argue with #1 and #2 from a kayfabe perspective though.

I'm ABSOLUTELY AMAZED that her REAL name is more stripperiffic than her kayfabe name...

http://dudewheresmyfreedom.com/

Some notes:

--The only two on the list who held pre-2000 World Titles were Triple H (two short WWE title reigns) and Undertaker (three WWE title reigns, one lengthy and two short).

--The official list of snubs is:

Big Show
Bret Hart
Chris Benoit
Sid
Jeff Jarrett
The Rock
Diamond Dallas Page
David Arquette
Ric Flair
Kevin Nash
Vince Russo
Scott Steiner
Steve Austin
Hulk Hogan
Brock Lesnar
Shawn Michaels
Bill Goldberg
Eddie Guerrero
John "Bradshaw" Layfield
Rey Mysterio
Rob Van Dam
The Great Khali
Jeff Hardy
Sheamus
Jack Swagger
Kane
The Miz
Dolph Ziggler
Christian
Alberto Del Rio
Mark Henry
Daniel Bryan


I think Rock absolutely deserved to be on the list, probably pretty high. The only reigns of his that the timeframe cuts off are his 3 brief initial Corporate Champion reigns. All 6 of his babyface reigns fit here.

I also think Brock Lesnar should crack the list over Booker T, but I can buy him just barely making it at #10, and that's a fairly close race.
