Oh god...

And the match in question...

Yeah, I assume the reason she said that is because she's Alicia Fox's sister. Why else would that match matter at all, rofl.

Superstars Fined for Chair Shot

"Pursuant to WWE's Concussion policy, the stunt of using a folded metal chair shot to the head is prohibited. Triple H and The Undertaker have both been fined for violating this policy at WrestleMania XXVII. WWE penalizes through fine and/or suspension for violation of this policy, which is unchanged and still in effect."

During the season premiere of Tough Enough on Monday night, contestant Ariane was asked her favorite match of all time moments before Steve Austin decided to cut her from the competition. She responded by saying Melina and Alicia Fox. Austin, completely taken aback by her answer, hesitated before saying "WHO?" in response. She ended up being the first contestant eliminated from Tough Enough. Austin has since posted the following on his Twitter: "Let me bottom line something right now?i meant no disrespect to Melina or Alicia on TE. both women are class acts and hard workers. cheers.?

Another Tough Enough contestant and current Miss USA, Rima Fakih, padded her right butt cheek during a drill where the contestants had to run the ropes for three minutes straight. She got caught by the judges who accused her of cheating. She posted on her Twitter page that Donald Trump (who is the one behind the Miss USA pageant) told her to take care of her rear end "so I did".

WWE Tough Enough's official website has posted extra video clips from the show. One of the clips shows contestant Matt (M-Dogg on the independent circuit) running into his old friend CM Punk. Be sure to check out the reactions of the other T.E. contestants when they see that Punk and Matt are old buddies.

hahaha ... i'm still not sure who Alicia Fox is. just kidding, but really, WHO?

Finding out that they are sisters at least adds some credence to it, but still an insane statement.

Also, that fine is purely a press release. If anyone thinks they'd fine HHH or Taker for real, you're out of your mind.

I was actually commenting on HHH and Undertaker being fine for using steel chairs. I personally couldn't give two f**ks about the other story. :p

There was an altercation between TNA Wrestling talent Matt Hardy and members of the WWE Tough Enough cast at a hotel bar in Atlanta, Georgia during WrestleMania XXVII weekend.

While details of the incident have yet to be disclosed, Reby Sky, Hardy's real-life girlfriend, revealed on her Formspring account that she and Hardy were "banned for life" from the hotel in question.

One WWE source said that if a main roster talent had done some of the things they did, termination would be likely if they were low enough on the totem pole.

what a douche Matt

[Peter Griffin]

what a douche Matt

Matt's probably mad that the cast of the new tough enough is already more popular than he is.......how many hits does his stupid youtube videos get again, like 5? LOL. Matt has always been carried by Jeff. When they parted ways from the Tag Team game a few years back, Jeff shined and Matt fell off the wrestling map.

At least Matt doesn't ruin PPV main events.

According to at least one key WWE insider, there will be many more major shakeups as WWE Chairman Vince McMahon is "hell bent" on his re-branding initiative, and is "determined to completely re-invent the public image of WWE."

While one source within the company points to the exit of COO Donna Goldsmith as "Vince deciding just to let everyone know his vision for WWE's image moving into the next generation," another source said "this has been something Vince has been discussing on-and-off for almost a year, and now he's decided to pull the trigger on it...so he's gung-ho to get everyone into the new mentality."

Stone Cold Steve Austin recently did an interview for XFinity during which he promoted the new season of Tough Enough. Below are some highlights from the interview, and you can check out the whole thing if you CLICK HERE.

When asked about how active he got filming Tough Enough: "One of the kids was pretty mechanically inclined, so I got in there with him?and shoot, I guess that means I haven?t been in the ring in seven or eight years?but I took a few bumps from him, gave him a few bumps, it was a lot of fun. I think if we do it again, I think I?ll be even more active and get in the ring a lot more."

When asked why he thought WrestleMania was initially going to be a weak show: "They?re pretty thin on talent, they?ve had some injuries. They?ve brought the Rock in to host it. They brought me back. I didn?t know if the Undertaker was going to make it, he?s had some injuries. Triple H is getting back in the ring. Until they brought all those players out they had a lot of green guys."

When asked about a possible ring return: "I could still, you know if I was in a bad situation, I could still get two years out of my carcass on a full-time basis." He then added, " But I?m happy where I?m at. And in ten or twenty years I still want to be doing the things I?m doing with my hunting and fishing. I want to continue to do that in a pain-free fashion. And right now I?m living a pretty pain-free lifestyle."

When asked about CM Punk: "I really like C.M. Punk. I think he?s one of the top workers in the ring. I love his promos. I love his style. There?s no smoke and mirrors. I like the straight-edge lifestyle stuff he does. You want to start pairing that against the beer-guzzling ?Stone Cold? Steve Austin, I think you?d have an interesting feud to say the least. He would push me to the limits, I would teach that kid a thing or two, and there would be some wonderful promos going back and forth. I like him a lot."

o.O Thats weird. Metallica knew he was going to use it, so obviously they had permission. Maybe its some stupid 'redistribution' rule.

Wrestlemania was very disorganized and incomplete. The magic from previous Wrestlemanias just wasn't there. Even the comedy segments were horrible. The ending of Wrestlemania was also bad...very bad. The match between Triple-H and Undertaker was OK but not spectacular...and that was the best match of all!.

The current creative team at WWE sucks. They are clueless. The Stone Cold era was the best. Steve Austin coming to the ring with a beer truck and spraying everybody with beer, or showing up on his 3 wheeler or truck and slamming Vince's car with it, Undertaker playing mind games with opponents, Vince, Shane and Stephanie McMahon getting involved in story lines...Those were the fun days. Now it's simply boring. I'm sorry, John Cena is a great guy, but his character sucks. Removing the mask from Kaine was one of the biggest mistakes ever. The mask is what made Kaine intimidating and mysterious. Now Kaine sucks. He no longer intimidates anybody. Same goes with Rey Misterio. He removed the mask a few years ago so now everyone knows what he looks like, so what was the point in putting the mask back on him? The mystery is gone.

Remember the Undertaker's American Bad Ass character? That was a HUGE mistake. The Undertaker's persona should never be changed to a biker or anything else that is stupid. That will hurt his "dead man" image.

They need to bring back the real WWE because the current WWE sucks. Plain and simple.

I agree with everything you said there.

It really sucks that Kane doesn't have his mask anymore, as he was bloody terrifying back in the Attitude Era! Although, they did drop the ball a bit with this...

As for Rey Mysterio, he removed the mask way before he was even in WWE. He and Konnan lost a "Hair vs. Mask" match to Kevin Nash and Scott Hall at WCW SuperBrawl IX in 1999, and because of that, Mysterio had to remove his mask.

At least the Attitude Era ran into this century, as I started watching in 2000, and this match to me is still one of the greatest matches of all time. :)

Part 1

Part 2

Part 3

Part 4

I think this match also changed everyone's opinion of Triple H, and showed that he was worthy enough to be a multi-time world champion.

(Wish) - A great Wrestlemania card for next year:

1. Rey Misterio vs Sin Cara

2. Rock vs Steve Austin

3. The Undertaker vs Wade Barrett

4. Triple-H vs Shamus

5. Batista vs Mason Rayne

6. Kane vs The Boogy Man (Yes, bring him back and make him a darker, more violent character) - cage match, no holds barred. Make it bloody.

7. Kelly Kelly vs Maryse - No holds barred match - Make them do something interesting for once instead of showing off their booties.

What would your dream Wrestlemania card be?

1. I'd love to see that happen.

2. Might end up getting over-hyped, as it probably would be as good as the last time they faced each other.

3. Nah. I can't stand Wade Barrett. He has the most pathetic finisher in all of WWE today.

4. Could happen. I've been waiting for them to restart that rivalry, and it nearly happened not too long ago.

5. Nah, I don't wanna see Botchtista back in WWE. He's gone into MMA now, anyway. He's set to join Strikeforce.

6. I like the sounds of that! I must be one of few people who liked The Boogeyman. And Mordecai, for that matter. :p

7. Nah. If you're gonna do a No Holds Barred Divas match, get in two that can actually wrestle. Out of the current roster, I'd go for Beth Phoenix, and Natalya.

That dude is awesome and a great replacement for Rey Misterio when he finally retires. I can't wait to see him on a full match.
