he needs Heyman back to work with him

If Heyman is indeed working with him now (which he says he isn't....kinda) that's cool and all. But Vince needs to swallow his pride (like he's done so many times in the past) and hire Heyman back for creative and/or a manager role on air. Heyman is a wrestling genius (not a business genius mind you) and would be a HUGE asset to any company he worked for.

Heyman against Jonny for control would be fun!

I would watch raw every monday night if that happend. As it stands i watch smallish clips on youtube when i am dozing off at home :p

But for the last few weeks for whatever reason i am always free whenever NXT is webcasted so i watch that. Some matches are/were actually pretty damn good. e.g i mentioned tyson kidd and mcgilicutty match a couple of weeks back was a real blast for me atleast. Guys like Kidd should be pushed more.

Hopefully cody rhodes can get out of the big show storyline after extreme rules though. Not good for either of them.

You guys need to predict the winners of the extreme rules matches :p

For me

1. Punk will win again (hopefully not... coz that would be just a big boot to the face of jericho seeing as he has been carrying this feud single handedly till now from what i see on youtube)

2. Sheamus (Its obvious Vince and HHH are banking on this guy.... really hope some sense prevails and DB wins :p)

3. Big show (Pretty obvious)

4. Orton (I was surprised that they let Kane win at wrestlemania)

5. Lesnar (Would be kind of stupid to let cena win... This feud will go till Summerslam imo)

NXT is pretty awesome actually, they need to start to move some FCW guys up there

Jericho BETTER win at ER. If not, what the hell was the point of him coming back this time exactly? To lose every major match at a PPV, and just put over other wrestlers? OK, I know Jericho has no problems what so ever with helping to put over others and helping to establish new talent and all that. But come on. This is Chris Jericho. One of the best of all time. Punk is great and all that, but what's the point of him winning and beating Jericho every week/month exactly? Plus, it's always better when the face has to chase the heel for the title. This is why I'm also hoping Daniel Bryan wins the title back from Sheamus. Plus, DB is just WAY WAY WAY more over than almost anyone else in WWE right now. It's going to literally be quite hard to keep him as a heel soon (if not already) because of the amount of cheers he gets and all the YES chants :D

While on the topic of Jericho outside of the ring, I went to see Fozzy when they played down here back in November. Great show (backed up by Jettblack, who are also f'n awesome), but Jericho never stuck around after the set; he went straight to his tour bus. I saw on Fozzy's site that he was charging around ?100 for VIP tickets to their shows where you could meet him. Bit of a dick move there. On the other hand though, a couple of friends who I bumped into at the gig saw him wandering around the city centre before the show, and they said he was a really nice guy, he did autographs, and even took a picture with them. I guess he's somewhere in the middle when it comes to niceness.

DB should atleast make sheamus submit. I think the last fall will be DQ from sheamus' end and he will keep the title. He might accidentally hit the refree who will then DQ him and DB gets screwed again :p

I actually find Brock's voice more childish than his head. His voice is amazingly shrill for a guy and that too for a muscle bounded man

As seen on Monday night, WWE did an injury angle with Beth Phoenix that appeared to be legit. Expect to see more of this as WWE is trying to do more "plausible" injuries where they initially don't reveal that it's a work and report it on their website like they would a real injury. The idea is for the talents to use Facebook and Twitter to help get the injuries over.
Universal Championship Wrestling posted the following update on Buff Bagwell:

F4Wonline.com is reporting that the current plan for Brock Lesnar at this year's SummerSlam PPV is for him to have a match with Randy Orton.

The report notes that while there is a lot of time and factors which could change the plans, WWE feels an Orton vs Lesnar match could be a good sell for their big summertime pay-per-view.

I could dig that, something needs to make Randy relevant again

The following is from WWE.com:

STAMFORD, Conn. ? In accordance with its Talent Wellness Program, WWE has suspended Oscar Gutierrez (Rey Mysterio) for 60 days effective Thursday, April 26 for his second violation of the company's policy.

not long till he disappears forever then

    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.

    • Not sure what country you’re in but in many countries you can absolutely jail the sellers behind businesses… in fact I’d say in most countries you can do that
    • I guess we are done since you refuse to read my comment you replied to or my other comment in another thread you were also a part of here.
