It might sound clich?, but I am truly overwhelmed & humbled by the messages I've received.

 

As a kid who grew up loving & living for professional wrestling, I was able to chase, catch & live an impossible dream. I was a part of events I couldn't fathom with the heroes I idolized from both WWF & various childhood favorite television shows (Hello Betty White). For a guy in a supporting ambience role--usually unnamed & unseen--I am blown away by the amount of people who apparently not only noticed, but also enjoyed my work. Announcing was my dream, until I realized the absolute best part was using my position to help others. It brought me so much joy to bring a smile to a fellow fan's face. The Superstars I've announced & traveled with over the past 12 years are not only extremely talented to work year round and on the fly, but they are also the most unselfish people I've ever met. I couldn't help others without their support. Not one Superstar or Diva ever once hesitated when I asked them to meet a fan..or autograph..or call..or do whatever was needed.

 

After reading through all of your messages, I just want to say this: Please do not be angry & Please do not be sad. I lived my dream! I'm glad that maybe now someone else will have a spot to live theirs.

 

Many thanks to everyone I have worked with in WWE. Sue, the company gem & my guardian angel. The producers who have taught me so much and constantly let me pick their brains. The referees (They make it look easy. NOT an easy job). Security. Props. Audio. Lighting. PR. Cameras. Travel. TR. Catering. Production. PA's. My eyes and ears at the bell-Mark Yeaton. Everyone I have met along the way. Everyone who has come into my life because of this job & to those who I have never had the opportunity to meet, but have enjoyed my work. I appreciate & am grateful for everyone's support. To Vince McMahon, Kevin Dunn & The Authority who gave me this incredible opportunity, I've got two words for ya: Thank You. The journey has been incredible & almost unbelievable. This is the opportunity I've been waiting for to pen the final chapter of my memoirs.

On the latest edition of ?The Steve Austin Show? on Podcastone.com, Steve Austin once again addressed rumors of his pro wrestling future in light of recent reports.

Austin said when he made a recent comment about gearing up for a ?comeback,? he was referring to a ?comeback to Gold?s Gym,? and despite reports that he?s training to return to a WWE ring, he has no desire to take bumps again and no time in his busy schedule to train for one more match.

 

Austin then revealed he has a project coming up in February, and although he couldn?t reveal too many project details, he said the project would make chances of an Austin WWE return at WrestleMania 31 ?slim to none.?

I was at the hawks game and im standing getting food and i look to my left and literally 2 feet next to me aj and punk are standing. Now I am obsessed with both punk and aj so i had a little heart attack. But what I kind of didnt like is the only think I said to them was Hey Phil can I get a picture please and he smirked and totally ignored me looking around like he was spacing the hell out. I didnt say anything else so he didnt think I was a crazy fan but dude has punk always been like this in public? It seems like hes got a stick up his ass and doesnt even want to acknowledge his fans that spent lots of money to get him super famous and rich. But at the same time I understand because I am sure he is totally sick and tired of always having people wanting photos with him and talk to him and asking him about coming back to WWE. I wasnt going to ask him that but still he shouldve at least said hi or sorry not now.

what a dick. who addresses someone they don't know by their first name, the very least he could have done was say "Mr. Brooks" and been less creepy about it.

 

another thought. let the man be. CM Punk isn't like Hulk Hogan, he wants to live a normal life and not be hounded in public. It's the s---heads like him above that cause CM to act as if he "has a stick up his ass"

UFC Women?s Bantamweight Champion ?Rowdy? Ronda Rousey made her official pro wrestling in-ring debut on Friday night. Well, sort of.

 
The face of Women?s MMA got physically involved in an independent pro wrestling show called ?Pro Wrestling Guerilla (PWG) in Reseda, California, throwing a ?chop? at a wrestler named Biff Busick.
 
The scene saw fellow indy wrestler Tommaso Ciampa hold Busick in front him, which led to Rousey throwing the chop.
 
Rousey and her ?Four Horsewomen? roommates and friends, including Shayna Bayszler, were in attendance at the show, sitting in the front row.

    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all

      By WaltC · Posted

      All it does is use the CPU more efficiently during boot to speed up boot times. That's it. Yawn....

      It's not a one or the other kind of thing. Software should run efficiently, and the operating system should appropriately manage the CPU clocks. You could have the best most optimized software on earth, and it will still run faster if the CPU does a better job of boosting as needed. All this is doing is pre-boosting the CPU based on user actions, instead of waiting for the normal detection mechanism to kick in. If the OS knows it is about to need more CPU, why shouldn't it use that knowledge? It's the same idea of downshifting before you try to pass someone, instead of just burying your foot into the peddle and waiting for the transmission to figure out what you want to do.

      There really isn't anything magical about the low latency profile, other OS's do this as well. All they're doing is using your CPUs boost clock options in a more smarter way.

      So we shouldn't have the option because of people using their laptops on battery? OK? LOL
