Today is Eddie Guerrero’s birthday too…

While the music world is celebrating Lennon’s birthday, the wrestling world is celebrating Eddie Guerrero’s. Eddie was a talented performer and wrestler, he was one of my favorites back in the Attitude Era days. I miss him on TV terribly. If Eddie was still alive today, I’m sure he would have had a great storyline feud against that new Mexican wrestler, Alberto Del Rio. RIP Eddie.

I haven’t been watching WWE for the past couple of weeks, but I still respect today’s performers, I just don’t like the PG direction.

Report: Former WWE/TNA star, Matt Hardy arrested for DWI…

Professional wrestler, Matt Hardy, was arrested in North Carolina for DWI. He was driving in a Corvette, drove off the road and struck a tree. He was not injured, he is perfectly fine.

While on suspension for TNA “Impact Wrestling”, TNA have immediately released him from his contract. In other words, fired from TNA.

TMZ, reports.

I’m not surprised by this at all, to be honest with you. Both of the Hardy brothers, Matt and Jeff had problems with drugs & alcohol for years. Jeff Hardy is currently in rehab for drugs, I think. They both have problems. Pretty sad how they are now. I used to be big fans of these guys.

I got the opportunity to see  the Hardy Boys perform at a WWE Smackdown house show in Glens Falls a few years back. That was back when Matt and Jeff were both in WWE, but they both left the company for TNA. Now they are out of TNA, having some problems.

Matt is a prick for this though. He could have killed himself and other people. He’s lucky to be alive.

Report: Mick Foley defends John Cena…

There’s a lot of John Cena haters out there, but Mick Foley isn’t one of them. Mick Foley took the time to blog about defending John Cena’s wrestling skills and his work ethic in the wrestling business.

Read what Mick has to say about Cena, here.

I’m not much of a Cena fan either, but after reading what Mick wrote and thinking about it a while, I guess I’ll have a little change of heart with Cena. I’m kind of agreeing with, Mick, surprisingly.

Like Cena or not, he is a workaholic. Cena worked harder more than any other wrestler today. You also can’t deny that Cena had many great classic moments in the WWE. So will Cena become WWE Hall of Famer down the road? Absolutely!

Cena came a long way to get where he is right now. People maybe getting tired of WWE shoving him in our faces but WWE didn’t give him this for nothing. Cena is also a great mic worker. Some wrestling fans claim that there will never be a wrestler that will be in the same spotlight as The Rock and Stone Cold. Sorry, but I’m gonna have to say that Cena is already the next Rock/Stone Cold. Think about it.

I think Cena’s feud with CM Punk is the best feud in WWE in a long while. Both of those guys are on fire. Many wrestlers of today leave WWE ’cause of injuries, and some even quit, but Cena sticks around.

Cena’s not a bad performer that some people say he is. I guess I respect him.

Cool Video: Ultimate Warrior’s web series “It Does Matter”…

Even if you’re not a fan of wrestling, I would suggest everyone to watch Ultimate Warrior’s series of videos called, “It Does Matter”. He basically talks about how to enjoy life and how to make your life better. Live your life the way you want to and not having to work day jobs.

He says you can live the life the way you want to. You don’t have to live it by working day jobs. He says working day jobs just to pay your bills and keep your house is not a good way to live your life. I actually kind of agree with him.

You see, Ultimate Warrior is speaking from experience. This is how he became a professional wrestler because he wanted it. If he wanted it, he went and got it. If you want to achieve something big in your life, you have to work for it. Warrior here is giving you advice on how to do something big in your life.

Honestly, I’ve been unemployed all summer long. Does that make me a pathetic loser for not having a job? NO! I actually enjoyed being unemployed at this moment. It was a great summer off. I enjoyed it throughout because honestly, I don’t like working day jobs myself. Why? Because I hate dealing with ego-driven and greedy bosses who think they’re bigger & better than you. I hated getting bossed around by other employees who think they’re the boss. Too much drama and negativity on jobs. They work your asses off 8-10 hours a day, when you should be out there living your life, the way you want to. That’s what Warrior is saying here.

If you want to become a famous rock star, a writer, model, actor, or even a professional sports player, you gotta work your way up to that. I wanted to be either a musician or a published author and I’m trying my best to make both of those happen. I’m also trying to make my fitness dream happen by trying to get the muscular physique I’ve always wanted.

I’m enjoying life the way I want to. Not caring what anyone else thinks. All I want to do is play my music and workout in the gym.

Sure, I’ll get myself a better life down the road. I would like to get married and start a family of my own someday and all that stuff, but I want something BIG to happen in my life too someday. Life is short. You want something big to happen in your life before it’s too late.

Thanks Warrior for these inspirational videos.

Thought: Why this is a perfect time to turn John Cena heel…

Everyone wants John Cena to turn heel but WWE doesn’t want him the wrestler bad guy. Why? Because WWE is afraid they may lose ratings and they don’t want to lose the children who are fans of the wrestler. Plus, WWE is afraid they will lose merchandise sales if they turn him heel.

Honestly, I don’t think WWE should worry about that stuff, because turning Cena heel is exactly what the WWE needs right now. The fans hate him enough. He gets booed heavily at almost every WWE live show. I think it’s a perfect time for the switch. The only fans he has are children anyway. It’s mostly the adult wrestling fans who can’t stand the guy.

Turning Cena heel would make the business a lot better. How? It will certainly get people scratching their heads and tuning into RAW out of curiosity that Cena is the bad guy. I don’t think Cena will lose ratings or merchandise sales either. I mean, when the Nexus group were around, they were considered bad guys but their T-shirt merchandise sales were pretty high. People were buying Nexus shirts even though they were heels. The same will happen with Cena.

With Cena being the heel, instead of having bright colored shirts, hats and wrist bands… Cena would probably make the switch to dark colored hats, shirts, and wrist bands. In order to be heel, I think he’ll need to wear mostly black clothing.

Cena was heel before. He was heel when he first started in WWE way back. I think he is a better actor at being a heel than he is as a babyface superhero.

I can see a heel Cena bullying young children at ringside, saying, “I’m not your hero anymore”. Turning Cena heel would put an interesting twist to his feud against CM Punk and the Rock.

The question is will we ever see Cena turn heel? I certainly hope so someday. Hopefully before Wrestlemania-28, we get a Cena heel turn. I want him to be a heel like everyone else ’cause his modern day Hulk Hogan gimmick is getting old and boring already.

WWE RAW is getting really good again. I’ve been enjoying it lately probably because of CM Punk, he’s a phenomenal performer and one of the bests.

Report: Popular online wrestling blogger, Kevin Eck, leaves the Baltimore Sun to join the WWE as part of their creative writing team…

Kevin Eck, who is a popular online blogger for the wrestling community is soon leaving the Baltimore Sun newspaper to join the WWE to be part of their creative writing team for WWE story lines. Kevin got his start as a wrestling journalist when he used to be editor for “WCW Magazine”, when the WCW used to be around back in the day. Kevin then worked for the Baltimore Sun from 1986 until now.

His wrestling blog, in which he talks about everything from WWE to TNA Impact, have created a large following of readers. He would give his opinions and reviews on all WWE and TNA shows. He would even give professional wrestlers in person interviews for video as well. As a wrestling lover myself, I read his blog on a daily basis and he is an entertaining writer. He is an honest guy. He isn’t afraid to tell you what he liked and didn’t like about a certain wrestling show. I believe that’s why WWE gave him the nod. Congrats Kevin.

For a long time now, in his blog, he’s been saying he’s been wanting to turn John Cena heel (badguy) which WWE never did. Now this is a great opportunity for Mr. Eck to make that happen with the writing team of WWE. I hope Mr. Eck does make it happen. Turn John Cena heel with the story lines. Cena being the hero babyface all the time is getting old.

Mr. Eck is done posting at the Baltimore Sun as he will make a move to Stansford, Conn., to work for WWE Headquarters. Congrats Kev, and best of luck in your future. I hope the job goes well with him. Vince McMahon must of been reading his blog after all this time and he probably didn’t even know it!

See his blog, here.

Report: George Clooney is dating former WWE star, Stacy Keibler? Yes, seems that it’s for real…

I usually hate celebrity couples and celebrity gossip like always but I have to write about this one, since I like George Clooney as an actor and Stacy Keibler is one of my all time favorite, WWE stars. It seems that George found himself a new lady already. George and Stacy both flew to Lake Como, Italy where he has a home there.

See the full story, here.

Even though Stacy or George haven’t confirmed this pairing yet, Stacy have been dropping hints about it on her twitter page. She wrote that she went to Cannes film festival and she has nothing to do with movies, I bet George took her over to Cannes with him.

If this pairing is true which I’m sure it is, I actually like this couple. Stacy is hotter than hell, she has the most amazing legs I’ve ever seen. She’s a pretty tall woman too and I’m sure she’s taller than George.

Stacy hooked up with George Clooney before he got someone else. I’m sure plenty of women were after him. So the question you have to ask is this. Is George a fan of professional wrestling? Who knew.

5 TNA stars that could go for a full time WWE run…

Since former TNA star, Awesome Kong has been recently signed to WWE, I’m sure other TNA stars could go for a WWE run too. What are other TNA “Impact Wrestling” stars could go for full time WWE run?

I will name 5 important TNA stars that would be great for WWE:

1. Samoa Joe – Samoa Joe is one of TNA’s biggest stars, WWE fans want him so who knows, maybe he’ll come to WWE soon since it looks like he may soon leave TNA. I heard his contract at TNA is up and he doesn’t plan on re-signing or something like that.

2. AJ Styles – He’s getting a lot of recognition in the wrestling community, getting more popularity. I think he could be a great main eventer for WWE too.

3. Sting – The Stinger never worked for WWE ever, but who knows maybe one day he’ll have a change of heart with WWE and maybe he’ll make a run sometime in the future. I doubt it though.

4. Abyss – This guy have been creating a lot of controversy in TNA. I think he would do the same to WWE if he was ever signed.

5. Velvet Sky – Most of the women in TNA are horrible. Most women are bad performers and bad wrestlers, but Velvet Sky is the only one worth paying attention to who actually has some talent. She’s hot, she wrestles good and she’s a good mic worker as well. I can see her getting signed to WWE at some point, hopefully she will.

That’s it. Just bored on a Sunday and wanted to come up with a fun topic. Enjoy.

Cool Video: The Ultimate Warrior takes a blast from the past…

The Ultimate Warrior took to his youtube to make fun of Hulk Hogan’s twitter by going back in character he had 30 years ago. Here’s Warrior back to his wrestling gimmick, except he’s using his action figure and talking like the Warrior back in the WWF days. Warrior still has it. Despite his age, he can still play the character very well. While I prefer Warrior himself in character (with him wearing face makeup, costume and all), not an action figure, this is still an entertaining video. Enjoy the laughs!
