^ :laugh: I remember doing the first part a lot and when my brother pedigreed one of our friends onto the concrete floor.

I'm sorry, but WWE should have taken a better look at Sin Cara or had him prepare more for the move to the US/NA style of wrestling/ring/whatever. It isn't Sin Cara's fault per se, nor do I think he's some sort of botch machine. I mean, check out some of his matches on Youtube, the guy is AMAZING. And I don't think I ever saw him miss a move or screw anything up in any of those.

It probably doesn't help that he doesn't (didn't?) speak a word of English when he came to the WWE. Not being able to convey by words in a sprt/arena that is very fluid and dynamic must make things incredibly hard for everyone involved. I for one would love for him to stay in WWE, but they have to give him a mouth piece. Also, screw it, pair him with Rey Rey.

I kind of agree. I felt like he was always stuck between the two styles. As if WWE wanted to have someone to do fast paced moves and some high flying but not too much. I can't remember if read this somewhere or i'm just imagining things but didn't they ban a lot of the high flying stuff a few years back? I don't know how he could have been a success. They probably needed someone who has worked in America before and is used to the different styles.

Still, it doesn't excuse some of his botches seeing as a few of them were fairly simple.

Yes, WWE banned quite a few of the high flying moves we've all come to know and love. As far as I know though, the workers can still USE them, but they may (read: MAY lol) get punished either by being de-pushed or just straight up fined. As for Sin Cara, he was caught in the cross fire of this situation. As you said, they wanted someone who could be fast and pull of insane moves, but then they wanted someone who could also work a slower more physical style American wrestling match. With him not speaking English (at all apparently) and his obvious inexperience with "our" wrestling style compared to the style used in Mexico he was never going to suceed in the WWE. That's just the plain and simple truth.

Also, the damn mood lighting he has when he comes to the ring (and during his matches lol) was moronic and really took away from his ability in the ring. Some have speculated it hid some of his "botches" but I don't buy that. I think someone in the back was like, omg mood lighting here we go!

As I discussed during the TNA Destination X Post-Game show, Sara del Rey, One of the top female stars in the world has been offered a WWE deal and is currently undergoing her pre-signing medical testing.

Del Rey was one of the showcase talents for SHIMMER's Women Wrestling and had strong showings and run in both CHIKARA and Ring of Honor.

From a wrestling standpoint, the company couldn't have looked to sign a stronger female talent.

^ Holy sh... :o

I hope they sign up a few more indie women later. There's a lot of good ones out there: MsChif, Cheerleader Melissa (competed in TNA as Awesome Kong's/Kharma's manager Raisha Saeed, and Alissa Flash), Daffney, just to name a few.

WWE is reportedly keen to work with UFC middleweight Chael Sonnen. Sonnen, who lost to Anderson Silva at UFC 148, is being targeted by WWE to be involved with the promotion in some way. It's unknown whether this means wrestling, an extended appearance or just a one-off.

Sonnen is friends with CM Punk, who nearly escorted Sonnen to the ring for a previous bout before WWE said no to it. Sonnen also has been working with Steve Austin on strength and conditioning training.

this would be awesome! :D

I read that earlier; I can't stand that douchebag, so I'd prefer if he stayed away from wrestling. I'm glad Anderson Silva TKO'd him on Saturday night! :D

he makes UFC more interesting with his trash talk :p

      Seems like Neowin has transitioned into being simps for the white house. I can't find a review for the last UFC games that came out.
