oh c'mon. matt hardy is pretty good. but yeah they didn't really get a lot, did they?

but at the moment smackdown has both the wwe title and the world heavyweight title. although i'm sure that'll change after the ppv this sunday. raw has the ecw title. what are the other titles that have switch at this moment?

and when are they getting rid of "the" adamle. further proof that he needs to go. he can't even get a wrestler's name right. he has to be corrected by the rest of the announcers. from monday's raw.

***Big Daddy V is ready to return to the ring at any time. (PWI) The official story is that he was out with a case of pneumonia, the UNOFFICIAL story is that WWE told him to lose some weight and get into better shape.

*** Atleast they arent playing up the fact that "the" adamle sucks like they did that 1 day in raw and whatever became of the dumb walkoff on ECW?

yep that's pretty much what vince wants at the moment. i think it's in august that SD jumps networks and vince really wants to make some big ratings for that show when it premiers on "my network tv". they want top names on SD along with a top announcer. things will probably change in the future. the way it feels SD is now RAW, and RAW is now SD. what i don't like is that SD will be shown at 10pm where i live on the fox network. after fox finishes their programming it turns into "my network tv". it was like this too way back when the wb ran here where i live. guess i'll have to get used to it again. but at least it won't interfere with my viewing of ghost whisperer anymore.

WWE’S SANTINO MARELLA ON HIS RISE TO FAME, THE OVW-SLAP INCIDENT, AUSTIN, THE ROCK AND MORE.

Q: Santino, maybe you can tell us a little bit about how you got into the business, transitioning from MMA and judo to professional wrestling. I believe you even attended Concordia University here in Montreal and were part of the amateur wrestling team there, correct?

A: Absolutely, I did Juno for many years, then tried to break into the business, I tried to go to Japan, and they always told me if you do good there, they are gonna bring you here, so when I went their, I actually was starting to do good there, but I got kicked out because I overstayed one visit by a couple days you know, so back here I went to OVW and everything seemed to work out just right.

Q: Well speaking of OVW, You were involved in a now infamous incident with jim cornette and the boogeyman which resulted in cornette slaping you and his eventual dismissal from OVW, can you tell us a bit about how that went down?

A: Oh this haha, this is a good one, So im at this time only in OVW for one month, and my daughter was visiting me, and so we were sitting in the audience and I thought maybe the boogeyman recognized me from the school and as he was leaving the ring, he turns to us, and I think, oh what a good guy, he is gonna scare my daughter for me, for me that’s like a present, but I didn’t realize that we were standing in front of the emergency exit where he goes out, so Im smiling thinking my daughter is going to crap her pants, and Jim Cornette freaks out and says move move move, this man, you have to be scared of this man, and then we moved and I thought it was over, but somebody called me in the back and he freaked out a little bit, slap here slap there, and I think to myself that I cant punch this guy in the face because im Canadian, and im gonna get kicked out of America. So anyways I just kept quiet and the rest was history, the WWE called me and apologized, saying this is not how we treat out talent, this is not how we want to develop inspired young athletes and he was going to be fired anyways they told me because he’s crazy, but that definitely put me on the radar a little bit but there was no freebies from that, I had to work up from scratch just like everyone else.

Q : Following the dismissal of Cornette, its been said that Paul Heyman really helped guide you and prepare you for the big time, how much influence did Paul Heyman have on your preparation.

A: Well Paul Heyman did something I did not realize, he would actually go up in the bleachers and watch us practice, I was in the intermediate class with Rip Rogers, and he would watch and scope out new talent, He is a special person Paul Heyman, some people can call them whatever they want about him from the past but he is a good person to me, so one day in the parking lot, I was doing the boris character, and he said I want you to start on TV next week, and your gonna start to make it in the business and this is crazy news, you know my knees starting shaking, but im thinking no problem im ready, and next week, sure enough his word was true, and I debuted on OVW TV.

Q: You practically went from one day being in developmental to the next day debuting on WWE television in Italy and winning the Intercontinental championship from Umaga of all people. What was your initial reaction when you were told you of the plans for you?

A: Well actually they didn’t tell me the plans until like an hour before, because im driving in Kentucky to a house show for OVW and the phone rings, and this is like Saturday or maybe Friday, yes it was Friday, and they say Santino, your Italian right? I say of course Im Italian, so they say OK, were gonna send you your passport, you might fly out tomorrow, to Milan, and debut as Santino Marella, so I hang up the phone and look at the guy beside me, im thinking oh my god, whats happening, this cant be true, they called me back, and I turned down the volume, I clear my throat, professional voice and say hello, and then they say, yup ok your booked tomorrow, your flying to Milan, you might debut Monday, but you know the wrestling business, might could change last second, so fingers crossed, I show up, walking around don’t know whats really going on and Arn Anderson, AA, comes up to me and say Hey looks like your gonna have a pretty nice day, your winning the Intercontinental Title, and you know I actually froze for the first time, he continued walkig by me, and I kept looking in the same direction, and I just froze in disbelief, and sure enough it ended up happening,

Q : If you had the chance, would you have changed anything about the first month of your WWE career, was it too much too fast?

A: I wouldn’t change a thing because its all a means to get where we are today and if I change something back there, you saw Back to the future, if you go change something in the past your going to affect the future!

Q: In OVW you had the shoot-fight persona when you were Boris Alexiev as you mentioned, which really highlighted your in-ring ability, in WWE they utilize your comedic strengths, do you think there will be a time when you can combine your comedic talents and your in-ring talents into the same character?

A: Yea I hope so, you see sometimes you can want something to be a certain way, but if it doesn’t make sense, you cant force it, so if we get there naturally, organically, and this comes out and we have a good storyline that will allow it to make sense then ok, but I just cant one day wake up and kick everyone’s butt

Q: For awhile you played the jealous boyfriend of Maria Kanellis, how was working with her?

A: Ahh you know, to quote Stone Cold Steve Austin, one time when they asked him about Trish Stratus, his response was, “you know, she’s a chick” haha

Q: Well actually You were ripping on Stone Cold's movie the condemned on TV pretty intensely, how did you really feel about the movie and how did you like working with stone cold and getting doused by the beer hose?

A: Well the movie is the movie, but working with Stone Cold Steve Austin, that was definitely a moment where I stopped and looked around and said to myself, “sum of a gun” your in the ring with Stone Cold Steve Austin you know, and the beer hose you know, under normal circumstances that could be a better thing, but it was really fun.

Q : Well you poke fun at Stone Cold’s acting, but When your in ring career begins to wind down, would you like to make the jump to the acting field?

A: Make no mistake about it, Hollywood, I put them on notice already, movies, tv shows, books, cooking shows, sitcoms, everything, when it comes to Hollywood everything, we made some good friends there at ABC with Jimmy Kimmel and I told them the same thing, just be ready because, when I come, I’m coming strong

RR: This coming Saturday, your appearing at the 42nd Annual CHIN Picnic in Ontario, what that’s gonna be like?

A: This is actually the coolest thing ive ever done, im gonna be the celebrity guest judge in the bikini contest, and little does the winner know she gets an additional prize, she gets to go on a date with Santino Marella, maybe the top 3 actually im not sure.

Q: You recently took part along with other celebrities in the "Dreams Take Flight" where you took 300 kids with mental, social or physical challenges with you to Disney World in Orlando. How did that opportunity come about and how did it go?

A: You know I love doing charity, you come away with such a larger prospective, and for me Doug Gilmour, and George St Pierre was there and im still a big fan of those things too, but you know the kids are the real magic of that event, you go down, and I was pretending to be scared of the roller coaster a little bit, and this one little girl I remember, she just survived cancer, and she was so supportive of me being scared of the roller coaster that she was forgetting about all her problems, and those kind of actions make you realize that these kids have some strength inside of them that is unbelievable.

Q: At the hall of fame, The Rock, a guy you've never worked with, mentioned you along with some of the biggest stars in the company, how did that feel?

A: You know I had nothing to do with that, it was the company who thought of it, and That was a great feeling, and I know the rock isn’t really wrestling right now, and there probably wont be an official opportunity to pass the torch so to speak with regards to the charisma, and the in ring ability and things like that, so I hopefully interpreted that as some sort of informal passing of the torch something like that, Im not sure exactly what they had in mind with that but that’s how I interpreted that,

Q: With that in mind, and looking back at how fast and how popular Santino Marella has become, did you ever find that someone in the backstage area was jealous of you, did you ever get any heat from the boys in the lockerroom?

A: Actually, No. In the beginning, I guess some people are hesitant, this new guy in the lockerroom, given the title, given TV time, but throughout the last year ive become pretty good friends with everyone in the lockeroom, so now there seeing their friend do well, so its not so much jealousy but you know it’s a little bit dog eat dog, and there is not opportunities for everyone but if your smart, you want the business and company as a whole to do well because there is a trickle down effect for everyone to get paid and feed their families, but the locker room is really cool and they are some of my closest friends, and you work with them so much they are like family.

Q: As of late you have been feuding with Rodney the Piper with Cousin Sal, even appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live. Is Roddy Piper as crazy as people say he is/was?

A: Oh yea, absolutely. He beat up Cousin Sal so bad in that training video, he choked him unconscious for real, slapped him like seven times and just basically beat him up and he’s legit, he’s rowdy, he’s roddy and he’s a piper.

Q : The 2008 WWE Draft went down last week, where you happy that you remained on Raw? And is there anyone that has been moved to Raw that you'd like to feud with in the months to come?

A: I am very happy to stay on Raw, all our programs are supposed to be equal, and the talent on every show is supposed to be equal but Raw is Vince’s baby being live television and im happy to stay there, my schedule, my friends, I wanted to stay the same, if its not broken, then don’t fix it, and with the new people coming over, there’s Rey Misterio, finally someone im bigger than, maybe I can beat him up, Batista, umm I might want to become friends with him somehow, but I dunno there is definitely some opportunities now.

Q: And your ex girlfriend, Maria, moved to Smackdown..

A: That’s Ok, because ive got a new girlfriend, and I didn’t want the static backstage.

Q: Any clues on who that may be?

A: I cant really give a clue like a name, but let me tell you this, she is sexier than the devil himself..uhh Herself I mean.

Q: Well Santino Thanks for coming on the program today Santino. To conclude, what are your future goals in World Wrestling Entertainment and is there anything else you would like to relay to your home country fans in Canada?

A: One goal I have is to get back the intercontinental title and keep it for a while, you know being an athlete and I was training for the Olympics my whole life and when this was no longer possible because of family, and I decided to become a professional wrestler and there was a goal I set for myself back in 1999, it was the same day that owen hart passed away and I remember because I was with Jim Neidhart that day and it was a memorable day and I said that day, that one day I am going to become intercontinental champion and I said when I become intercontinental champion, im going to allow myself to let go of the fact that I did not go to the Olympics as should have been.

***World Wrestling Entertainment has come to terms on the release of Trevor Murdoch as of July 03, 2008. WWE wishes Trevor the best in all future endeavors."

****Here's an interesting tidbit - WWE allowed Jim Cornette to be interviewed on the new Ric Flair DVD that comes out Tuesday even though he currently works for TNA. (411) That's not my wording mind you - "allowed" is how the news has been described, as though Cornette had to get a permission slip from the hall monitor to be "allowed" to give an interview.

***Brooke Hogan will be getting a lot of publicity over the next month as her show new VH1 reality show is scheduled to debut in a few weeks

Stephanie McMahon-Levesque gave birth to her and Hunter's second daughter earlier today. Murphy Claire Levesque was born weighing 8lbs, 12 ounces. Congratulations to the entire McMahon and Levesque families.

actor Freddie Prinze Jr. has been hired by WWE as a creative writer and started at tonight's taping in Washington, D.C. Prinze, 32, became known during the late 90s and early 2000s starring in several Hollywood films including: I Know What You Did Last Summer (and its sequel), She's All That, and Scooby-Doo. He also starred in a television sitcom, Freddie. Prinze has been a life-long fan of WWE as he was shown on camera attending this year's WrestleMania and Hall of Fame Ceremony.....this could explain why lawler suddenly brought up buffy the vampire slayer during one of the matches. as many of us know buffy is played by sarah michelle gellar and she's married to freddy prinze jr.

**superboy** · 07-31-2008, 12:06 AM

***Kimbo Slice to Co-Star with Hulk Hogan in Stereo Vision's Martial Arts Comedy "Kung Fu U" in 3D

LOS ANGELES–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Stereo Vision Entertainment, Inc. (OTCBB: SVSN), a film production company focused exclusively on developing high quality, low cost, polarized 3D feature films, announced today that the undefeated Mixed Martial Arts phenomenon, Kimbo Slice, will be co-starring with Hulk Hogan in Stereo Vision's hilarious kids' comedy "Kung Fu U" in 3D.

"Kung Fu U" in 3D is a Disney-type comedy about of a bunch of nerds and misfits that are sent away by their wealthy parents to the Brentwood Academy (a.k.a. Kung Fu U) to learn the finer arts of self-defense. It's a heart-warming romp where the rather weathered warriors come to the rescue for the kids, and in turn, the kids rescue the warriors' seemingly lost souls from what had been their eternal apathy. It's a feel-good story that reminds us that we're all the same, no matter what our age, or where we came from, and that we should all stick together.

Stereo Vision's Chairman, "Baywatch" creator Doug Schwartz, stated, "We're very happy to have Kimbo Slice co-starring in ‘Kung Fu U.' He has an enormous media presence, and he'll fit right in with our star Hulk Hogan, and the other cast members in our made for kids 3D movie. We hope to have ‘Kung Fu U' in 3D in theatres by the fall of ‘09."

*** trailer for a proposed Kurt Angle reality show called "The Real Angle" . It features footage from Angle's time in WWE and TNA andincludes Angle mentioning his drug use and cheating on his wife Karen. No word on if the project was picked up by anyone or if any release is planned at this time.

***There's a movement in Calgary right now to preserve Stu Hart's home as a local historical monument. City alderman are voting on the move and if they approve it the city would ban the home from being demolished or renovated. The home was built in 1905 and Stu purchased the home for $25,000 in 1951.

rlm · 07-31-2008, 01:42 AM

polarized 3D. ugh, i prefer the blue/red or green/red glasses 3D better. i think polarized was used way back when on friday the 13th 3D, jaws 3D and amityville horror 3D.

and wow, them canadians sure take their wrestling seriously.

A: Actually, No. In the beginning, I guess some people are hesitant, this new guy in the lockerroom, given the title, given TV time, but throughout the last year ive become pretty good friends with everyone in the lockeroom, so now there seeing their friend do well, so its not so much jealousy but you know it’s a little bit dog eat dog, and there is not opportunities for everyone but if your smart, you want the business and company as a whole to do well because there is a trickle down effect for everyone to get paid and feed their families, but the locker room is really cool and they are some of my closest friends, and you work with them so much they are like family. Q: As of late you have been feuding with Rodney the Piper with Cousin Sal, even appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live. Is Roddy Piper as crazy as people say he is/was? A: Oh yea, absolutely. He beat up Cousin Sal so bad in that training video, he choked him unconscious for real, slapped him like seven times and just basically beat him up and he’s legit, he’s rowdy, he’s roddy and he’s a piper. Q : The 2008 WWE Draft went down last week, where you happy that you remained on Raw? And is there anyone that has been moved to Raw that you'd like to feud with in the months to come? A: I am very happy to stay on Raw, all our programs are supposed to be equal, and the talent on every show is supposed to be equal but Raw is Vince’s baby being live television and im happy to stay there, my schedule, my friends, I wanted to stay the same, if its not broken, then don’t fix it, and with the new people coming over, there’s Rey Misterio, finally someone im bigger than, maybe I can beat him up, Batista, umm I might want to become friends with him somehow, but I dunno there is definitely some opportunities now. Q: And your ex girlfriend, Maria, moved to Smackdown.. A: That’s Ok, because ive got a new girlfriend, and I didn’t want the static backstage. Q: Any clues on who that may be? A: I cant really give a clue like a name, but let me tell you this, she is sexier than the devil himself..uhh Herself I mean. Q: Well Santino Thanks for coming on the program today Santino. To conclude, what are your future goals in World Wrestling Entertainment and is there anything else you would like to relay to your home country fans in Canada? A: One goal I have is to get back the intercontinental title and keep it for a while, you know being an athlete and I was training for the Olympics my whole life and when this was no longer possible because of family, and I decided to become a professional wrestler and there was a goal I set for myself back in 1999, it was the same day that owen hart passed away and I remember because I was with Jim Neidhart that day and it was a memorable day and I said that day, that one day I am going to become intercontinental champion and I said when I become intercontinental champion, im going to allow myself to let go of the fact that I did not go to the Olympics as should have been.

Murphy Claire Levesque was born weighing 8lbs, 12 ounces. Congratulations to the entire McMahon and Levesque families. actor Freddie Prinze Jr. has been hired by WWE as a creative writer and started at tonight's taping in Washington, D.C. Prinze, 32, became known during the late 90s and early 2000s starring in several Hollywood films including: I Know What You Did Last Summer (and its sequel), She's All That, and Scooby-Doo. He also starred in a television sitcom, Freddie. Prinze has been a life-long fan of WWE as he was shown on camera attending this year's WrestleMania and Hall of Fame Ceremony.....this could explain why lawler suddenly brought up buffy the vampire slayer during one of the matches. as many of us know buffy is played by sarah michelle gellar and she's married to freddy prinze jr.

(PWI) The official story is that he was out with a case of pneumonia, the UNOFFICIAL story is that WWE told him to lose some weight and get into better shape. * Atleast they arent playing up the fact that "the" adamle sucks like they did that 1 day in raw and whatever became of the dumb walkoff on ECW?

WWE wishes Trevor the best in all future endeavors." Here's an interesting tidbit - WWE allowed Jim Cornette to be interviewed on the new Ric Flair DVD that comes out Tuesday even though he currently works for TNA. (411) That's not my wording mind you - "allowed" is how the news has been described, as though Cornette had to get a permission slip from the hall monitor to be "allowed" to give an interview. *Brooke Hogan will be getting a lot of publicity over the next month as her show new VH1 reality show is scheduled to debut in a few weeks

The company decided that they had nothing for him in creative but they're open to him returning at a later date. Kevin Nash has a verbal blow-up with TNA management at the last Impact taping over the finish to the a gauntlet match set to air next week. Nash ended up leaving the taping but things have blown over since then and he is still with TNA. Shawn Daivari's ring name in TNA will be Sheik Abdul Bashir Kimbo Slice to Co-Star with Hulk Hogan in Stereo Vision's Martial Arts Comedy "Kung Fu U" in 3D LOS ANGELES–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Stereo Vision Entertainment, Inc. (OTCBB: SVSN), a film production company focused exclusively on developing high quality, low cost, polarized 3D feature films, announced today that the undefeated Mixed Martial Arts phenomenon, Kimbo Slice, will be co-starring with Hulk Hogan in Stereo Vision's hilarious kids' comedy "Kung Fu U" in 3D. "Kung Fu U" in 3D is a Disney-type comedy about of a bunch of nerds and misfits that are sent away by their wealthy parents to the Brentwood Academy (a.k.a. Kung Fu U) to learn the finer arts of self-defense. It's a heart-warming romp where the rather weathered warriors come to the rescue for the kids, and in turn, the kids rescue the warriors' seemingly lost souls from what had been their eternal apathy. It's a feel-good story that reminds us that we're all the same, no matter what our age, or where we came from, and that we should all stick together. Stereo Vision's Chairman, "Baywatch" creator Doug Schwartz, stated, "We're very happy to have Kimbo Slice co-starring in ‘Kung Fu U.' He has an enormous media presence, and he'll fit right in with our star Hulk Hogan, and the other cast members in our made for kids 3D movie. We hope to have ‘Kung Fu U' in 3D in theatres by the fall of ‘09." trailer for a proposed Kurt Angle reality show called "The Real Angle" . It features footage from Angle's time in WWE and TNA andincludes Angle mentioning his drug use and cheating on his wife Karen. No word on if the project was picked up by anyone or if any release is planned at this time. *There's a movement in Calgary right now to preserve Stu Hart's home as a local historical monument. City alderman are voting on the move and if they approve it the city would ban the home from being demolished or renovated. The home was built in 1905 and Stu purchased the home for $25,000 in 1951.
