Poor Tajiri.




Awesome avatar Stoned!

Poor Tajiri.

Exactly, the reason cited may be true but he's probably only going back because his passion has probably dwindled because he's been pissed around for the last for years....

I would be pissed.


Our man Kennedy's surgery went well.


Kennedy sidelined six months
By Evan Denbaum
December 7, 2005


On Tuesday, SmackDown Superstar Ken Kennedy underwent surgery to repair a tendon that was ripped clean off a bone in his back. WWE.com caught up with Kennedy convalescing at home to find out how he?s doing now.

WWE.com: How did the surgery go, and how are you feeling now?

Kennedy: I?m pretty achy, pretty sore. But the surgery went even better than they thought it would. The doctors said they got it really tight; the tendon re-attached perfectly to the bone, and they didn?t have to cut me open as much as they thought they?d have to cut me open.

WWE.com: What restrictions will you have during the recovery period?

Kennedy: I?m not allowed do to anything with my right hand for the next six weeks. So, that should be interesting. I?m not at all ambidextrous. I?m very right-handed, so I?ve been having a hard time doing anything. But I?m in a huge sling with a cuff that is attached to a cooler and it fills with cold water, so it?s pretty slick. My hand and wrist are Velcroed to my belly-button for the next six weeks. But I?m doing okay. I?m a little groggy still, obviously. I?m on pretty strong pain medication. Every once and a while it starts to wear off and I start to feel it, but what can you do?

WWE.com: What will you do to pass the time?

Kennedy: Well, I can?t play video games like I wanted to because I?m not allowed to use my right hand, so I?m a little bummed out about that. So, I?ve just been watching seasons 1-3 of The Shield on DVD.

WWE.com: When will you be able to get an update on your condition?

Kennedy: I have to go back in two weeks and see the surgeon again. But hopefully, they?ll tell me that since the surgery went so well that maybe my recovery time won?t be quite as long as they originally thought.

WWE.com: Will you have to take any special precautions once you return to the ring? Your finishing maneuver, for example, would seem to put a lot of impact on the surgically repaired areas.

Kennedy: Well, I won?t be able to do anything for six months, but once I?m ready to go back in the ring, I?ll be fully ready to go. I should be able to take a full swing at it.

[Hammy]

Go! Go! Kennedy.....


....Kennedy....Here's to hoping he's back sooner than expected...

DIAMOND DALLAS PAGE SUES JAY Z



Former pro wrestler Diamond Dallas Page is suing Jay-Z, claiming the hip-hop heavyweight has illegally adopted his trademark hand gesture ? the "Diamond Cutter" ? as his own.

The suit, filed in Los Angeles Federal Court on Friday,
accuses Jay-Z and Roc-A-Fella Records of trademark and copyright infringement as well as misappropriation of the hand symbol. Page is seeking an injunction (meaning Jay-Z would be prohibited from using the gesture) and unspecified monetary damages.

Page's lawyer, George Gallegos, said Diamond Dallas (born Page Falkinberg) brought the legal action against the Def Jam CEO in order to protect his livelihood.

"People would come up to him and ask him if he was letting Jay-Z use it or if he had licensed it to him," Gallegos said of the symbol, which he claims his client created in 1996 and copyrighted years ago. "People [would also] say he's using Jay-Z's sign."

On the cover of Page's new book, "Yoga for Regular Guys: The Best Damn Workout on the Planet!," he can be seen sporting a T-shirt of the hand gesture. On his Web site, the same image can be seen above the words "A symbol of excellence since 1996."

Gallegos said he first took the hand-gesture matter directly to Jay's lawyers, but they were not receptive, saying that the real issue was how Diamond Dallas was using Jay's symbol inappropriately. Gallegos said he provided the rapper's people with magazine covers, various Dallas merchandise and video footage dating back to the mid-1990s showing Page throwing the "Cutter."

"If you look at [Jay-Z's] 'Encore' video you can see fans using the 'Diamond Cutter' sign, and in video of Diamond Dallas ... if you only looked at the fans from both those tapes, you'd think it's the same person performing," Gallegos said. "Jay-Z and Roc-A-Fella Records use this symbol to promote themselves, to promote their artists, to promote their music and to promote their fanbase. People have come to recognize [Page by this symbol], and the way that it's being used by Jay-Z and Roc-A-Fella is taking value away from it and creating confusion upon the public."

Jay-Z's attorney, Michael Guido, could not be reached for comment. Calls to Jay-Z's label for comment were not returned.

[Hammy]

Go DDP!

Seriously though it seems people just sue for the hell of it these days and i don't really think it creates confusion amongst the public....

....on another note has anyone got HBK's autobiography yet? Being my No.1 wrestler of all time i really wanna get it (...and will) but i am always skeptical of these 'WWE' releases, so anyone have it? any feedback? anyone getting it? (I guess you are D, since you're a big fan to...)

[D]

I am definitely getting it, more than likely for Christmas, I went to Barnes and Nobles last week to preview it and couldnt find it anywhere though But oh yeah, If I have to order it online I am definitely getting it.

[Timothy]

HBK says some pretty fucking crazy shit.


definitely  worth a read.

[AxlsMainMan]

HBK says some pretty fucking crazy shit.


definitely? worth a read.

I heard Bret Hart read the book because theres a lot of bashing wrongfully thrown his way. Ah well, HBK will always be an asshole in Bret's eyes.

By the way DDP always has and always will kick ass. Such a shame Vince never used him properly either

[Evolution]

I want to read Vince Russo's book. If he pulls no punches what a read that would make.

TNA TURNING POINT SPOILER ALERT






To add on to the report at TNAWrestlingNews.com, Gerwick.net is reporting that Sting's contract with TNA is for around one year and could be worth up to $500,000 although that sounds very high.

We can't confirm the rate of pay but can confirm that the talk backstage is that TNA has inked a deal with Steve 'Sting' Borden. The contract was finished either late Monday night or Tuesday morning. No word on if Sting will appear on the PPV (many believe he will) or if TNA will give a formal announcement.

Awesome news, if this is true i'll be so happy

[Evolution]

Nice one. Someone new to trade the belt with Jarrett 

[R4tfink]

Was Sting a member of the wolfpac?

A DVD detailing the history  of the NWO would own! 

[Timothy]

[Hammy]

Wrestlemania X8-Scott Hall vs Stone Cold

nWo:The future?

I've never seen it so i don't know if it is that good, knowing WWE it may suck, also this will be harder to get since it was released under the WWF name....

The following contains a spoiler for TNA Turning Point.

PWInsider.com is reportin that TNA is looking at bringing in a few new faces over the next week or so, including Chris Kanyon who will be facing Raven at Turning Point. Kanyon will be the next person out of Raven?s past who will be brought in. It?s unknown whether he?s been signed to a deal or it?s just a one-night thing.

It looks like a few more will be brought in, but nobody is confirmed yet.

Awesome! than Kanyon eh? I'm a big fan of the guy, i hope he's signed to a full time contract WWE totally misused him the morons...

[Evolution]

I have that nWo thing on tape. It's alright but the DVD would be better for all the extras.

[ARC]
