After the Smackdown taping in Albany, NY ended, Christian and Edge embraced and gave the crowd a "Five second pose."

This led to the entire WWE roster in attendance from Triple H on down came out on the ramp to pay tribute to Edge. Big Show, Rey Mysterio, Chavo Guerrero and eventually Triple H joined Edge and Christian. I was told it was awesome and the crowd loved it.

Edge gave a long "Hall of Fame induction" style speech to the live crowd, thanking everyone from the ring crew to catering on down. He specifically pointed out Kane as one of his closest friends in the business next to Christian. He thanked Lita and Vickie Guerrero.

Edge even joked to the fans that they needed to get their minds out of the gutter when it came to Lita "even though we really did do it."

Edge said he was going home to vacation and lay low and play with his dogs.

The fans chanted "Hall of Fame" at Edge. I was told it was a really emotional affair and really put a nice cap on the end of Edge's career.

WWE cameras were filming everything so it's possible it could be posted on the WWE website.

Comics?

A lot of films and television shows are theatric; do you also not watch those, and do you class those as junk?

Nope, don't watch those and yes, would classify most of those as junk, especially ANY reality shows! :x

If it wasn't for the wife and kid, I probably wouldn't even own a television set, except for NASCAR, A&E, The Discovery Channel, The History Channel and an occassional football game, college preferably!

What are you talking about? It is not been announced. Cena vs Rock is announced.

He's right, it hasn't. All that's happened is in Triple H's last promo, he said when Undertaker returns, he'll be waiting.

And yes, it'd be Undertaker vs. Triple H III. The first time they faced each other at WrestleMania was at WrestleMania X-Seven in 2001. That was a regular match, but then Undertaker knocked out the referee, and they just spent most of the match fighting outside. :p That win took Taker's streak up to 9-0.

It's terrible news about Edge. You have to look back at his career and think wow though. Some brilliant matches! I was just watching the TLC match with the Hardys and the Dudleys at a past WrestleMania and that spear off the top of the ladder, just WOW! I can see the WWE playing the caring employer card here and putting the belt on Christian. About time too, he should have been given it before he went to TNA. Really gutted that we won't get a Edge & Christian tag team run. The tag team division just isn't anywhere near what it was back in their day. Now it's like the tag teams are an after thought of put together misfits!

Oh yeah, forgot to say it's great to see JR back full-time. :)

Morrison wins R-Truth's place at Extreme Rules!!! :D THAT'S how it should be!

And to top it off, R-Truth turns heel. :p

Can tell they're in London. "WHO ARE YA! WHO ARE YA!" :p

Well, Rappy was right, it was a fairly crap RAW this week. The only good point was John Morrison winning R-Truths spot in the WWE title match at Extreme Rules, so maybe he'll finally win the title. Unlikely with Super Cena in the match, but a man can dream, can't he? :p

Speaking of Super Cena, I got annoyed when he came to back up Sin Cara. Like he'd really need Cena's help! Sin Cara has more talent than Cena, Miz, and Riley all put together!

I wish they'd just get Awesome Kong wrestling already. Diva's Champion on her debut. Would be nice to see her run all over the Bella Twins. :p

but Awesome Kong isn't a 'diva' ... she's quite the opposite actually

she should make a run at a 'male' title ... i think she could do it sucessfully at some point

    • Google Gemini co-lead Noam Shazeer is leaving for OpenAI

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Google Gemini co-lead Noam Shazeer is leaving for OpenAI by Pradeep Viswanathan Noam Shazeer is best known as one of the co-authors of the 2017 “Attention Is All You Need” paper, which introduced the Transformer architecture that now powers most large language models. He also worked on several major Google AI projects, including LaMDA, before leaving the company in 2021 to co-found Character.AI. He also authored the Sparsely-gated Mixture of Experts (2016) paper, which is popular among the AI community. After falling behind OpenAI and Anthropic a couple of years ago, Google brought Shazeer back in 2024 as part of a major deal with Character.AI. Through this deal, along with Noam, several other researchers returned to Google DeepMind. More recently, he was a vice president of engineering at Google and a technical co-lead for Gemini. Today, Noam Shazeer announced on X that he is leaving Google and joining OpenAI. In his post, Shazeer said it was a difficult decision to move on, adding that he was proud of the Google team and what it had built together. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman welcomed the move with a post of his own, saying Shazeer was one of the people he had most wanted to work with since OpenAI’s early days. Google has made strong progress with Gemini over the past year, closing the gap with OpenAI in several areas. But losing Noam Shazeer is a major talent setback for them, especially after bringing him back less than two years ago by spending a fortune. For OpenAI, the hire adds one of the industry’s most experienced language model researchers to a team that is already pushing ahead with ChatGPT, Codex, and its next generation of frontier models.
