5 WWE Stars that would make great UFC stars!!!

Brock Lesnar is already in the UFC, there are rumours flying around the web that former WWE star, Bobby Lashley may join the UFC as well, Lashley is currently competing in the MMA.

What WWE stars that have the potential to be great UFC stars?

My 5 picks are below:

Triple H

(Think Triple H has what it takes to be a real fighter? I definitely think so. I think Hunter would make a really great brawler in the UFC cages)

Dave Batista

(I think the body on Dave Batista explains it all, why he would make an excellent UFC star)

Kane

(Real name, Glen Jacobs, I think would make a powerhouse UFC brawler as well….)

Vladmir Kozlov

(Many people would disagree with this, but I think Vladmir Kozlov, the Russian wrestler would make a great UFC competitor. Great look, great image, good brawler type of wrestler, I think he would be great)

Shelton Benjamin

(He may not be that big, I think he would be great for the light weight division of the UFC)

Feel free to discuss.

Cool Video: Here is proof that the QTV Billy Bob interview was faked and scripted…

Check out this older Boxmasters interview in a different radio station. In this radio interview with Billy Bob Thornton, Billy Bob is much nicer, friendly and more profesional acting in this one. Billy Bob is even smiling and joking around, laughing and stuff in this interview.

So his interview with QTV is definitely faked and scripted, Billy Bob was acting in that QTV interview. I think that QTV footage will be used for Joaquin Phoenix’s documentary movie with other celebrities impersonating him like Billy Bob at QTV and Ben Stiller at the Oscars are the ones spoofing, Joaquin so far.

I think people hating on Billy Bob for his QTV interview doesn’t have a sense of humor and taking things way too seriously. I thought his QTV interview was hilarious. People just don’t understand Billy Bob’s weird sense of humor. He’s just a really strange guy. Billy Bob has always been like this, so why do people find Billy Bob’s QTV interview a surprise?

See the old interview of Billy Bob being all nice and friendly in this video here.

Report: Dave Mustaine says upcoming Megadeth tour will squash potential fued with other band…

Dave Mustaine, the leading man of Megadeth, says his band is about to go on a tour that will end a long feud with another band for good. He refuses to say what band it is now but he plans to announce the news on Megadeth.com soon.

Blabbermouth reports:

http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=117897

Many users in the Blabbermouth comments are guessing all kinds of bands like Slayer, Metal Church, Suicidal Tendecies, Down, etc.

I think it’s obvious it’s going to be Metallica. Metallica and Megadeth to do North American tour? Man, if Metallica and Megadeth shared the gig at the Times Union Center Nov. 12th, I would fucking shit myself, that would be fuckin’ amazing!

Is it possible that Metallica and Megadeth finally set their differences aside, and acting like brothers now? Only time will tell and we’ll find out soon.

Notice that Metallica has not yet announced an opener for their North America tour, could it actually be Megadeth? It’s possible. We’ll have to wait and find out.

Report: Trent Reznor of NIN begs famous bands/artists on major labels to drop out of them…

The Nine Inch Nails has been an unsigned band since dropping out of major labels in 2007. The band has been finding other ways to release music instead of releasing albums on CD. They’ve been releasing their music through the internet and stuff like that.

Read this interesting article, Trent admits that the Nine Inch Nails becoming a major label band was the biggest mistake in his life and his band’s career.

http://www.contactmusic.com/news.nsf/article/reznor%20urges%20musicians%20to%20ditch%20labels_1099985

While I agree with Trent, I don’t think today’s major label acts in the mainstream will ever drop out of major labels. Do you think acts like Metallica, Ac/Dc or U2 would drop out of them to go back to an  unsigned band? No. They won’t because they are too addicted and obsessed with the fame and the money.

Like Trent said you don’t need a label to put out records and to make money.

There are ways of becoming a successful band without a label. The Smashing Pumpkins has dropped the major labels and they just release records independently. Indie labels are fine, but the major ones you don’t need.

You can have a good music career, without agents, A&R reps, record producers, etc. getting in your face all the time. Do everything yourself like Trent Reznor does. Fuck the major labels.

Report: “The Great Khali” can’t leave the United States to his home of India? Why? Find out here…

“The Great Khali”, real name, Dalip Sing Rana, is a wrestler that stands over 7 feet tall and weighs over 800 lbs, no kidding. This wrestler is not allowed to leave the United States. Why? It’s because he’s in contract with the WWE, and it’s part of the policy that wrestlers must live in the United States. Foreign wrestlers are not allowed out of the United States.

Khali was already there in India earlier this past summer to do WWE promotional stuff and do a Bollywood movie, but he isn’t allowed to leave the United States.

Does this mean that Khali will be in trouble by the WWE? Maybe a suspension or worse, a firing?

Reports on wrestling websites, first caught the news of former WWE star Andrew “Test” Martin’s death results. His cause of death? Surprise!!! Accidental overdose. The same way that 20 or 30 other wrestlers died. He had oxycodone intoxication. Which means they are type of pills which he swallowed along with drinking alcohol with it.

More pics of Giselle Itie below, she looks all wet, she must of had a scene where she had to swim in the water, with her clothes on, does this mean she had to swim away from the explosion?

Check ’em out below.

Confirmed: Ralph Fiennes and Liam Neeson joins “Clash of the Titans” remake…

Actors Ralph Fiennes and Liam Neeson once teamed up for Steven Spielberg’s “Schindler’s List”, they are reuniting to star in the, “Clash of the Titans” remake. Liam is set to play Zues, and Ralph is set to play Hades, who are the rulers of the Underworld.

I think Liam will still do the movie. I don’t see him pulling out. If he were to pull out of the film, he would have done so a long time ago, but he hasn’t yet. So that’s a good sign that he may still do the film.

Report: Women in Sports media group wants UFC to take action against Dana White…

UFC’s President and CEO, Dana White, may have apologized for the anti-gay slurs, but the fight against his controversial youtube video isn’t over, folks. The Assn. of Women in Sports Media, wants the UFC company to take action against Dana White. Not only that he used the gay slur, he also used offensive words toward the women, like “cunt”, and others in the videos that offended the women.

The media group has also defended Loretta Hunt and they say that many women are also UFC and MMA fans. I think Dana needs to realize that many women are fans of the sport that he could turn women off.

This article doesn’t state what kind of action they want UFC to go against Dana White, whether they want him to get terminated as President or some kind of suspension/punishment, but it’s all up to Lorenzo and Frank Fertita, what they would do with Dana White since they are his bosses. The women media group just wants the UFC officials to confront Dana about this.

More on it here:

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/sports_blog/2009/04/writers-group-wants-ufc-to-take-action-against-white.html

I actually kind of agree with them, that writers women media group, is right that men shouldn’t talk to women that way. It’s okay to swear in conversation, but calling innocent women, “bitch” or “cunt” is way out of line.

Loretta wasn’t acting like a bitch in her article about managers and agents not getting credentials at all, she’s just doing her job and doing news that a reporter would do.

While I’m sure, some people would like to see Dana fired for this, I’m sure his bosses would defend him and say he didn’t do anything wrong.

BREAKING NEWS: Gay marriage to be legalized in New York State????

New York State could be the fifth state in the United States to legalize gay marriage. David Patterson announced today, that he plans to re-introduce the legislature to legalize same sex marriage.

More on it here:

http://thinkprogress.org/2009/04/08/paterson-marriage/

What do you think? Good idea or not? While I do respect people’s orientation whether they are straight, gay or bi, I don’t care, people can be whatever they want, I’m not sure if I like the idea of same sex marriage being legalized here in our state. It’ll probably happen, but I’m not sure I’ll like the idea of walking through town and there is a gay wedding going on somewhere in public.
