Rappy Veteran Posted September 25, 2010 Veteran Share Posted September 25, 2010 Former WWE performer Jorge Gonz?lez (a/k/a Giant Gonz?lez) passed away Wednesday in San Martin, Argentina, reports Argentinian news outlet Impulso Baires. He was 44 years old. Sources from Gonz?lez' hometown, El Colorado, confirm that he was taken to San Martin after "suffering a decompensation." Gonz?lez had been suffering from poor health for years as he was confined to a wheelchair and used a dialysis machine to treat kidney failure. It was announced last year that Gonz?lez would return to the United States in May 2010 for an appearance at the "Legends of the Ring: wrestling convention in Monroe, New Jersey. Ultimately, he was forced to cancel the appearance due to ongoing health problems. Originally a basketball player, Gonz?lez was drafted by the Atlanta Hawks in the third round of the 1988 NBA Draft. When his NBA career didn't pan out, Hawks owner Ted Turner offered Gonz?lez a job as a professional wrestler with another of his ventures, World Championship Wrestling. After a year of training, Gonz?lez was introduced to fans as "El Gigante" on May 19, 1990 at the WCW pay-per-view, Capital Combat. He enjoyed a lengthy run as a fan favorite before parting ways with the organization in 1992. Gonz?lez' jumped ship to the World Wrestling Federation the very same year and debuted as "Giant Gonz?lez" at the 1993 Royal Rumble, where he eliminated The Undertaker from the Rumble match despite not being an official participant. The move laid the foundation for a rivalry that lasted the length of Gonzalez' WWE career as he parted ways with the organization shortly after being put to rest at the hands of "The Deadman" at the 1993 SummerSlam. Gonz?lez wrestled in New Japan Pro Wrestling before retiring in 1995 due to ongoing health problems. His last match took place on February 8, 1995 against The Great Muta. Gonz?lez is the fourth former WWE talent to pass away within the past seven weeks, following Lance Cade, Luna Vachon and Mike Shaw (a/k/a Bastion Booger).

Rappy Veteran Posted September 29, 2010 Veteran Share Posted September 29, 2010 WWE has announced that Pee-Wee Herman will guest star on Raw on November 1st. :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOC Veteran Posted September 29, 2010 Veteran Share Posted September 29, 2010 Yeah, watching that RAW is going to be...odd to say the least. In a merger of the two things I loved the most when I was five years old, comedian, children's entertainer and fictional character Pee-wee Herman has been announced as the special guest star for the November 1 edition of WWE Raw. WWE.com announced the following:Pee-Wee Herman is taking time off from performing on Broadway in The Pee-wee Herman Show to come out to the Nassau Coliseum where he's sure to make some new friends and create some chaos with WWE. Never has such mayhem been caused on Monday Night Raw by a man in a red bowtie. Pee-wee Herman will turn Raw into his Playhouse on Nov. 1. Obviously WWE.com has forgotten about Bob Backlund. Herman, real name Paul Reubens, was a star of stage, screen and television in the 1980s, bridging a sexually-charged stage show into two major motion pictures and Emmy Award-winning Saturday morning children's program. His fame quickly turned to infamy following an arrest for public masturbation at a Sarasota, Fla., adult theater in 1991. Since then, Reubens has continued to work, appearing in films such as "Blow" and "Mystery Men" and on television shows like "Murphy Brown," "Pushing Daisies," and "30 Rock." The possibilities for a Pee-wee Herman Raw are endless. Here are some of my suggestions: ? Have Sheamus interfere in Randy Orton's match and hit him in the head with Chairry ? Wade Barrett can give John Cena a DDT on the floor, only for the floor to reveal itself as Floory, allowing Cena to completely no-sell everything and win the match. ? Edge wishes he could have a shot at the WWE Championship only for the General Manager's podium to swing open with a "Wish? Did somebody say WISH?" ? Chris Jericho puts Shawn Michaels face-first through the Magic Screen. ? The Bella Twins continue their celebrity brown-nosing by each grabbing one of Pee-wee's arms and saying, "Oooh, we LOVE how you publicly masturbate!" ? CM Punk can join those condescending fish for some commentary on this season of NXT. ? Randy descends from the ceiling backstage, convinces Evan Bourne that getting into a handicap match with Nexus is a great idea. ? Alberto Del Rio wrestling El Hombre. ? A door-to-door salesman representing Sara Del Rey knocks on Vince McMahon's door, says "I'm going door to door to make you this incredible offer!" and gets the door shut in his face. ? The entire Diva roster represented by tiny claymation dinosaurs. ? Santino Marella and Pterri have a long conversation where I realize they are the exact same character. And so on. Hopefully it'll go somewhere beyond Reubens saying "I have a DVD coming out" and Sheamus telling him he doesn't care about his "styoopid DVD" before demanding a "shot at the doublya doublya E championship." At the very least we know it'll be an improvement over the October 25th Raw, scheduled to be hosted by TNA ship-jumper Toby Keith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timster Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 does anyone know when HHH is coming back? rappy?

No way is he done.

Remember Stone Cold turning at WM? As for Edge going back to SD, uh, wow. He really is like a freaking yoyo. He's been traded back and forth more times than he's won world titles, which is sad. But, the worst part of it, is no more Edge making fun of the current GM storyline on RAW. He was awesome the last month or so with that one, especially beating up the GM laptop thing :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just thinking if Cena does turn heel, it needs to have a reaction like when Hogan joined the NWO. That was insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rappy Veteran Posted October 8, 2010 Veteran Share Posted October 8, 2010 HollywoodLife.com reports that WWE is negotiating with Justin Bieber about singing "America the Beautiful" at WrestleMania 27. Here is the article: Justin Bieber might not want to get in the ring with spandex wearing hunks like Randy Orton, The Miz and John Cena, but the 16-year old star?s singing pipes might get him in their grasps regardless. WrestleMania ? the annual Super Bowl of wrestling ? returns for its 27th incarnation in the Georgia Dome in Atlanta, GA in 2011 and a consistent fixture is to start off the festivities with a rousing rendition of America The Beautiful!An insider tells HollywoodLife.com exclusively that WWE is trying to get younger viewers and that they?re out to get the Biebs on board. ?It is so perfect! To have Justin perform in front of 70,000 plus people would just be amazing! It is so perfect?, our source says. ?It?s still a work in progress but it would be a lot of fun.? We totally agree, and if Justin wanted to add to his fun night, he could easily ask his friend Kim Kardashian how to handle things backstage with the fellow wrestlers ? she was the official host of WrestleMania 24 back in 2008!

Rappy Veteran Posted October 14, 2010 Veteran Share Posted October 14, 2010 Partial Source: Pwinsider.com Many WWE wrestlers are happy to see that Freddie Prinze Jr. is back with WWE. Many consider him to be a great liaison between the creative team and the talent. It should be noted that at times there is a lack of communication/connection between creative and the wrestlers, and since Prinze is a huge fan and respects what the wrestlers do as performers, he talks to them from a different perspective. He's also "with the times" according to another source. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rappy Veteran Posted October 14, 2010 Veteran Share Posted October 14, 2010 Source: The Wrestling Observer Newsletter Among those discussed this past week for induction into the 2011 WWE Hall of Fame were Bill Goldberg, Lex Luger and Ron Simmons.Also under consideration for induction into the Hall is that of the Four Horsemen. Company officials would prefer to induct the group as opposed to solely Arn Anderson. However, the group's induction will likely hinge on whether Ric Flair re-signs with TNA Wrestling once his current expires early next year. WWE also has strong interest in inducting Sting in the Hall of Fame, though his availability hinges on whether he re-signs with TNA Wrestling for 2011.
