WWE has announced that Darren Young has been suspended for 30 days due to a violation of the company's Wellness Policy. The following statement was posted on the WWE website on Thursday: "In accordance with its Talent Wellness Program, WWE has suspended Fred Rosser (Darren Young) for 30 days effective Wednesday, Oct. 5, for his first violation of the company’s policy."
I doubt anyone cares. He seemed to lose all his personality the minute he cut his hair. Fred??  |

I find it hilarious that despite Kelly Kelly having good matches with Beth Phoenix, Natalya and even Brie Bella, her reign as Divas Champion was looked at as "boring", but now Beth is champ and people are already complaining about her squash tour that has lasted all of one night. My, aren't we fickle.  |

Kelly had the best babyface Women's/Divas title reign in years. Maybe even since one of Trish's last ones.
The night she won the title was great with the fan vote thing and the reaction she got. And her series with Beth produced probably the 3 best diva matches of the year. I just rewatched her MITB match with Brie a couple days ago. I had forgot all about it after all the Beth/Natalya stuff but that was a good match too and she got a great reaction there as well.
After years of Michelle McCool PPV matches though people are probably just having a hard time adjusting back to seeing a top diva who doesn't put them to sleep every time they enter an arena. When we get like Beth vs. Eve next and no one cares hopefully then even the haters will realise that Kelly should be the focus of the division from now on, whether she's champion or challenger.

Kelly is -
1. Hot
2. Blonde
Two bad things to be in the eyes of the counter culture parts of the iwc. Acceptance there, if it ever comes, will be slow.
These are the same people who thought Trish Stratus should be fired and Jazz given her position as division centerpiece after all.

I never started coming to wrestling message boards until about 2006 and even then, I never posted alot until I came to this site, which I don't consider a wrestling site, despite it's name and skins. So I've never considered myself a member of the "IWC" and always thought their group opinions were stupid and constant bitching was extremely annoying. The fact that they wanted Jazz of all people to be the star over Trish is probably one of the most idiotic things I've ever heard. Jazz was very boring from what I remember of her. Which isn't alot, since she was only there for like 3 years, and I only watched Raw for 1 of them. I didn't even know the IWC has been around that long. I hate the IWC. Reading spoilers make the shows alot less fun to watch, and then bitching about them afterwards even though you already knew it was going to happen just makes you seem like you have no life. Which many of the IWCers don't. If you're 30 years old and have nothing better to do than sit around and bitch about wrestling to a bunch of teenagers on an internet message board all day, then berate them when they have an opinion that doesn't match yours, you might as well just do the world a favor and go kill yourself because you obviously have nothing to offer it. Sorry, I just really hate the IWC. Brings back bad memories of IMDb. I don't consider any of you IWC members either, we're just people that happen to talk wrestling once in a while among many many other things. |

These are the same people who thought Trish Stratus should be fired and Jazz given her position as division centerpiece after all. lol Really?? Yep. Not everyone mind you. But a significant enough amount from what I saw. And if it wasn't Jazz, it was Molly, especially after she went brown haired. Granted, Molly was a better talent than Jazz and probably did get under appreciated by the WWE. Trish was largely despised by the smarks from 2000 to about 2002-3. And even in '03 and into '04 it was more lukewarm. In recent years, some on the iwc start with "But she's no Trish, duh." Thing is, if it was up to the smarky work raters, there would never have been a Trish Stratus in the first place. Vince was right then and the iwc was largely wrong. That's just one example. I've been on the net since the late 90's and recall when people were spitting at The Rock main eventing. And a little later, calling for Dean Malenko to get a mass push. Many of the loudest smarkiest types simply didn't (and don't) understand (or accept) even the basic framework of sports entertainment and are willing to push aside or no sell charisma, speaking ability, and look for workrate sake. |

It's nice to see Melina hanging around positive influences (Candice, Torrie & co.).

So I was watching the gimmick battle royal from Mania X-Seven, and the Raw XV battle royal. I thought if they did a 20 man Battle Royal on the 20th anniversary (which is just over a year away) who would I like to see in it. So I made a list:
I would love to see that Battle Royal next year. (please tell me if anyone I mentioned is dead) I know Goldust is still around but he may retire and even if he doesn't I'm pretty sure he represents the past more than the present so why not? And the RVD thing is just hope. Who knows? Nash and Booker seemed to switch companies over night. I would mark out like crazy for this match.

They're all alive as far as I know, but Million Dollar Man has a heart condition that stops him from wrestling... hence him buying the win from IRS at RAW 15.
I've gotta agree with your line up, I'd just take out the Model and Million Dollar Man and replace them with Scotty 2 Hotty and TAKA.
