According to court documents filed in TNA's lawsuit against WWE for interference with existing contracts, the organization terminated Ric Flair's contract on May 11, 2012. Flair, however, is still listed as a member of the active roster on ImpactWrestling.com.

Flair missed a live event he was scheduled to appear at the day before his contract was terminated. He has privately claimed that he quit the organization.

I'm calling it now: new General Manager of one of the two brands. :p

I really hope they slap a title on Jericho before he leaves again. He is my favorite superstar as a champion. He is such a douche, plays the role very well.

they put him in multiple title matches and he lost everyone :s

WWE has removed all listings and links for WWE NXT on their website, so it appears the rebranded version of the series, featuring mostly WWE developmental talents, will not be made available online officially by the company.

The WWE is getting more and more boring with every show and PPV. If Vince and company don't do something about it soon, I'm afraid it's gonna go down the drain. WWE RAW 1000th episode was absolutely boring as hell. I expected something special, but all we got is the same old, boring crap. The attitude era needs to come back. The PG-13 rating needs to go, otherwise WWE will sink.

Oh I thought it was this past Monday!....LOL....Nevertheless, RAW is getting boring as hell dude. It's just the same, old, dull crap every week.

after 22 years of being a wrestling fan I can't turn off, it's not as great as the old WCW Monday Night Wars days but still watchable

I know. :( I love Punk and all, but Jericho is my favorite of all time. I want him to take the title in a very unexpected fashion (like many Jericho title wins).

My understanding is that Jericho was brought back to put Punk over as an IN RING guy... i know it sounds dumb to serious wrestling fans but most wwe watchers are casual 'lets watch wwe tonight' people. They know jericho is a veteran and is pretty good at both in ring and outside the ring shenanigans but punk was just known to a lot of these people as a motot mouth who entertained on the mic. However after wrestlemania he is billed as the best guy in the wwe when it comes to in ring prowess (a claim that many serious fans dont accept... they say DB is the best in ring competitor wwe has right now).

Anyhoo, i missed No Way Out but the results were utterly predictable from what i saw on wiki page... was it boring or good?

F4Wonline.com is reporting that the relationship between WWE and Alberto Del Rio is becoming heated.

Reportedly, Del Rio had a major dispute with a top WWE official and threatened to quit the company. One source says Del Rio is frustrated with his current standing in the company, while a second source claims the incident wasn't a big deal and the dispute was more about contractual terms. A third source believes the incident between Del Rio and management is a combination of the first two reports.

Del Rio is viewed by WWE as having leverage. He has no personal issues with income and could easily return to Mexico as a former WWE Superstar. In the report, one WWE employee questions how legitimate Del Rio's concussion really was. Del Rio was apparently "too injured" to work his match against Sheamus Sunday at the No Way Out pay-per-view but was healthy enough to perform on Monday Night RAW. The employee thinks the concussion was a cover up because of the issues going on between Del Rio and officials. The feeling is WWE would rather claim he has a concussion to get him out of a high profile title match, and not risk Del Rio going into business for himself.

      I really wonder if this has to do with the built in VPN or "private DNS" of browsers that trip up legal requirements like cookie consent and Cloudflare (to avoid all the botnet attacks we get). And BTW some botnets still manage to get past Cloudflare, we are constantly having to tweak it to block malicious traffic that ultimately cause a DDoS.

      CPPC states can also be messed around with in most UEFI settings but aren't as robust as the ones that the Windows Scheduler can provide! Make sure you look into what your motherboard also has before customizing for the Windows Scheduler.
