Great. Just what we need.

They're just probably being delusional. I doubt WWE would actually bring them back yet again; unless they do what Jake The Snake Roberts has done; move in with DDP so he can help them get clean.

According to sources, the sprinkler system at the CenturyLink Center in Bossier City, LA was somehow set off as the company was filming a pre-taped segment for SmackDown. This caused many WWE stars to have their personal effects damaged.

Fire alarms and sprinklers immediately went off at full force, dousing everyone in the room, which led to a mad scramble in the dark as the fire prevention system shut down all electricity in the immediate area. Staff and wrestlers were scrambling through a flooded room in the dark, trying to remove everything of importance as the sprinklers kept spraying. The scene was described as something out of a bad comedy film with people slipping and getting completely soaked.

The company was finishing up the taping of Main Event and was getting ready to shoot SmackDown when the taping process was stopped. The company was working to keep the surge of water from running out of the room and into other backstage areas. The situation was so serious that Triple H arrived on the scene to direct traffic as the company tried to stop the water from reaching other areas of the building.

Many were said to be thankful that the fire alarms had only caused the sprinkler system to go off in the one room and not a larger portion of the arena, which may have caused the evacuation of the live audience by the local fire marshal. That would have been a disaster for the tapings.

The feeling is that the heat from lights being used for the pre-tape set off the sensors in the room and that led to the flooding.

The Wrestling Observer Newsletter is reporting several creative plans are being tossed around for Ryback's first WrestleMania this spring.

One idea features building to a match between Ryback and Big Show. The idea behind the match being pitched is Ryback having a WrestleMania moment picking up the Big Show, marching around and delivering the Shell Shock finisher on him.

That'll definitely give him a WrestleMania moment, even if he botches it, ? la Tensai. We all know

is considered a WrestleMania moment.

"The Prodigy" Mike Bennett met with WWE officials again last week to begin contract negotiations. WWE first reached out to Bennett in August, but at the time he was satisfied with his place in Ring Of Honor. The thought is that Bennett and his girlfriend, Maria Kanellis, may come as a package deal

That would be really weird to have Maria back in WWE now. Don't know much about Bennett here, but anyone outta ROH gets a shot in my book as they produce some of the best talents in the biz right now.

They are like the power couple of ROH so I see it working well but everyone on the dirtrags believe Bennett is a jobber in waiting

Since Kevin Nash is on a legend's contract and hasn't done anything lately, why would he suddenly appear at NXT with The Shield? Could it be that he's going to manage them ala Ted DiBiase? :shifty:

Full Sail University announced on Thursday that Kevin Nash, Wade Barrett, Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins andRoman Reigns will all appear at next week?s WWE NXT taping on Thursday, December 6, 2012.

    • Google Finance is now out of beta with improved portfolio tracking and a new Android app

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      Google Finance is now out of beta with improved portfolio tracking and a new Android app by Karthik Mudaliar Google is taking its redesigned Google Finance experience out of beta and adding several new features, including portfolio tracking, scheduled market briefings, and a dedicated Android app. The company says the updates are beginning to roll out globally this week, while an iOS app is planned for later in 2026. The most notable addition is the new portfolio feature. Instead of entering every investment manually, users can upload a screenshot, CSV file, or PDF containing their holdings. They can also tell Google Finance what they own using natural language, such as the number of shares held in a particular company or fund. Google Finance will then place those investments into a dashboard showing performance, asset allocation, concentration risk, and the holdings responsible for the biggest gains or losses. Existing portfolios created with the older version of Google Finance should appear automatically. The built-in AI research panel can use the portfolio as context when answering questions. For example, users can ask which sectors are underrepresented or how their fixed-income allocation could affect long-term growth. Google says portfolio data will remain private and that uploaded files and images will not be retained. Users will also be able to edit or delete their portfolio information after it has been imported. Google Finance is also getting scheduled tasks. These let users request recurring reports such as a daily summary of overnight cryptocurrency movements or a weekly update about newly announced initial public offerings. There is also a new Google Finance app for Android. It includes watchlists, interactive charts, real-time market data, a live news feed, and the same AI research panel available on the web. Google has been gradually expanding the AI-powered Finance redesign since it first entered testing. In April, the experience was expanded to more than 100 countries, bringing its research tools, advanced charts, and market news to a much larger audience. That was followed by a wider European rollout in May, which added features including live earnings calls, transcripts, and AI-generated summaries. The ability to import an entire portfolio from a screenshot or document should make Google Finance considerably easier to set up. However, Android users will have to wait for feature parity with the web version, and Google has yet to say exactly when the iOS app will arrive.
