Could be an April Fools joke, but Amazing Red posted this yesterday...

Pretty good signing for WWE if it's true.

As we reported yesterday, Charlie Haas legitimately quit Ring of Honor during an event this past Saturday night and was said to have delivered a drunken rant to the fans, specifically directing comments to several of the ROH staff including head booker Delirious and announcer Kevin Kelly.

WZ has learned, through several eyewitness sources in ROH, that the following took place during intermission of the event which lead to Charlie Haas' in-ring incident:

Charlie was legitimately drunk, got into an altercation with Grizzly Redwood, who reportedly started it, and the altercation resulted in Charlie hitting Grizzly in the locker room. Delirious then screamed at Charlie for getting physical with Grizzly.

This all took place right before intermission and Haas was scheduled first after intermission. ROH officials were reportedly asked to try and talk Charlie out of going out to the ring, as the belief was he was in no shape to compete. Haas refused, and apparently told the locker room he was quitting anyway. Haas then went out to the ring, got on the mic, said this was his last match, had what was described as a "stinker" of a bout with a local wrestler, then spoke more to the crowd after the match, but not on the mic as he was cut off by ROH.

After Charlie left the ring, he was visibly crying and spoke about his dead brother and all his dead friends.

In addition to the above, WZ was told by several people in ROH that few in the company will miss Haas. There are a lot of guys on the roster who feel he isn't as good as he thinks he is, and he portrayed himself in ROH as a star in WWE when he was barely on TV. Haas reportedly rubbed a lot of people in ROH the wrong way, especially those who he thought he was above, like guys on the ring crew, etc.

IWC seems to be going crazy over Amazing Red and his "signing", has that been confirmed yet?

No word yet. It's probably an April Fools joke. Although it has been mentioned he did have tryout matches a few months ago...

It was all approved by Paul Bearer's family, so no real disrespect made, thankfully.

The likeness is uncanny tbh, it has made the Taker/Punk match more interesting but if he hadn't of died what would they of done to build up to the WM match?

Probably would have had Punk and Heyman kidnap him, similar to Edge when he feuded with Kane.

It's going to turn out that Paul Bearer isn't dead, it is going to be a storyline and Undertaker will win at WM when Paul Bearer (or a guy who looks like him) low blows CM Punk. :laugh:

"My god, CM Punk was just low blow'd by Paul Bearer's spirit"

It does make you wonder what the storyline would have been if he hadn't of died.
