Thought: Why Snooki is booked for “Wrestlemania” this year…

Leave a comment

WWE is in a huge backlash just recently because they booked “Jersey Shore’s” Snooki, Nicole Polizzi, for a match at this year’s “Wrestlemania”. She’ll be in a triple threat tag team match with John Morrison and Trish Stratus vs. Lay-Cool tag team and Dolph Ziggler.

“Jersey Shore” is not everyone’s favorite show and neither am I, but in Snooki’s defense, I can understand why WWE would want her.

If you are a fan of Jersey Shore, you would know that Snooki is good at being a drama queen, she can be real bitchy and tough. WWE loves stuff like that. Plus, Snooki is a fighter. You may not believe it, but it’s true. If you watched the show Jersey Shore, Snooki has gotten into fights with other women, many times. She had many brutal catfights with Angelina and other women of Jersey Shore. She even punched, “The Situation” in the face once on the show.

The reason Snooki was booked for the match, is that, WWE wanted a woman that could be able to take out Lay-Cool. Lay-Cool which has Layla and Michelle McCool who have been dominate over the women at the Smackdown roster. WWE figures that Snooki would be a good woman to take out Lay-Cool easily, knowing how brutal Snooki fights on “Jersey Shore”. They needed a woman who is capable enough of taking out another woman in catfights and Snooki can.

It is no secret that celebrities have always been huge in “Wrestlemania” over the years. Lets look at the list of some celebrities that’s been a part of “Wrestlemania”: Donald Trump, Mickey Rourke, Pete Rose, Lawrence Taylor, Bart Gunn, Floyd Mayweather Jr., Mike Tyson, Mr. T., William Shatner, Pam Anderson, Carmen Electra, Alice Cooper, Ozzy Osbourne, etc. All those celebrities I listed performed at “Wrestlemania” over the years.

This year is Snooki’s year. Snooki have been on a promotional tour for her book and to help promote, “Jersey Shore”. She’s been all over the place, on late night TV interviews, radio, etc. This is also a good opportunity to promote, “Jersey Shore”.

I have no problem with Snooki being a part of “Wrestlemania”, ’cause she deserves it, honestly. The “Jersey Shore” show is kind of like WWE and she looks like a WWE Diva, so why not? I think that match with her might be pretty entertaining.

So please try to respect WWE’s reason for having Snooki. I think it’s actually a good idea to have her on.

Report: Tammy Sytch aka Sunny, officially a WWE Hall of Famer!!!

Leave a comment

Tammy Sytch aka Sunny, the original and the very first WWE Diva, have officially made the WWE Hall of Fame. It was announced on RAW last night. Remember, she started the sexual image in wrestling entertainment, so this inductee is well deserved, like her or not. She may have not been in WWE for that long, but she’s a legend in many ways. She’ll be inducted along with Shawn Michaels, Hacksaw Jim Duggan and a few others.

Why didn’t she stay in WWE that long? I read that she was fired, but her and WWE must be in good terms now, since she made it. Maybe she’ll make a future return or be part of a match at Wrestlemania?

Tammy Sytch aka “Sunny” in WWE… the next inductee for the Hall of Fame???

Leave a comment

Rumors are hitting the internet in the world of wrestling news, that Tammy Sytch famous for “Sunny”, the WWE Diva who worked for the company for the three years in the early 90’s, just maybe the next inductee for the, WWE Hall of Fame. Since she only worked for WWE for three years in the 90’s, never worked in the 80’s and never made a return, you ask yourself, how is it possible that she could get inducted? Well here’s how…

The reason she could possibly make it is that she was the very first woman in the WWE to be known as a Diva. Yes, there were other women in the WWE way before her, but the sex symbol thing wasn’t around until Sunny came along. Yep, Sunny was the very first WWE Diva that was considered a sex symbol. Sunny started the sex thing in wrestling. That’s what makes her legendary. After Sunny, the WWE kept the sex thing going up until around 2009, when WWE went TV-PG. Once WWE went PG a while back, the Divas don’t look sexy anymore.

I think Tammy Sytch deserves this honestly. She was the reason Sable, Trish Stratus and Lita happened. Without Tammy Sytch, the women’s division of wrestling wouldn’t be huge. We’ll have to wait and see if Tammy actually makes it. I hope she does.

Hulk Hogan posts a tweet forgiving Bret Hart, is he for real?

Leave a comment

Hulk Hogan posted this on his twitter.

“Last and only comment for Brett,I hope he finds happiness in life,I feel bad for him and I have totally forgiven him much respect HH”

Hogan posting that kind of surprised me. As you all know, Hulk and Bret have been feuding out of wrestling for years. If Hogan is serious on forgiving Bret, I’ll respect Hogan just this once. Somehow I can’t trust Hulk though.

Will Bret forgive him in return? Will Bret and Hogan bury the hatchet and call a truce? Maybe, but I don’t see it happening.

Hogan finally did something nice for once in his life, but you can’t take him seriously.

Cool Video: The Rock responds to John Cena with an emotional message…

Leave a comment

The Rock responded to John Cena last night on RAW via video satellite. This is one of the Rock’s best speeches in a long time. He gave an emotional one. The Rock was angry and sad at the same time in this video, and Dwayne did a great acting job showing that. You can tell that Dwayne’s film career is helping his wrestling speeches get better. You can feel the Rock’s emotion. I also loved how he explained why he left WWE to open doors for other wrestlers and even defended Cena a little bit.

Even though it’s confirmed that the Miz will wrestle Cena for the WWE Champ at WM-27, maybe that will change and have the Rock vs. Cena instead. Hopefully. Wrestlemania cards do change sometimes, so ya never know.

My next videoblog: Why I hate Hulk Hogan…

Leave a comment

So Hulk Hogan is set to return to TNA Impact this Thursday. I hate Hulk Hogan. I once had so much respect for him but lost it a long time ago. Why do I hate Hogan? A lot of people seem to be hating him lately. I think it would be much easier to explain it all on video. I’ll have to warn you though, that fans of Hogan and TNA will not like that video, there will be a lot of Hogan bashing. I will make the video tomorrow. It needs to be done before Hogan’s return this Thursday. Yes, I watch TNA Impact on Thursday nights.

BREAKING NEWS: Mistico, a Mexican wrestler officially joins WWE, under the name of Sin Cara…

Leave a comment

The WWE officially announced today that the company have signed a new Mexican wrestler to the WWE roster. His name is Sin Cara (formerly known as Mistico). Another short and masked wrestler with the similar looks as, Rey Mysterio. It is not known on what show they will put Sin Cara on yet, whether it will be RAW or SMACKDOWN, but I predict he will be put on SMACKDOWN. Why? Because Rey Mysterio is on SMACKDOWN.

They’ll want Sin Cara to have a feud with Rey Mysterio and then maybe become future tag team partners? Will it be Sin Cara vs. Rey Mysterio for Wrestlemania 27?

You gotta give respect for the Undertaker…

Leave a comment

 

So, the Undertaker is returning to RAW this coming Monday. That’s what the “2-21-11” videos are all about. The latest, “2-21-11” video clearly showed the Undertaker in it, shooting down all rumors of Sting making his WWE debut.

Have you noticed a lot of legendary wrestlers from the past, retiring from wrestling and leaving for other careers? Examples: Stone Cold, Mick Foley, The Rock, Shawn Michaels, Triple H, etc.

Not the Undertaker. He’s never backed out on WWE and he stuck with wrestling to this day. The Undertaker made his debut in WWE way back in 1990, that’s a long time he’s been with WWE, right? There’s a lot of speculation that the Undertaker will retire from WWE, but I think he’ll keep doing this until he dies.

I’m looking forward to Undertaker’s return to RAW this Monday. It’s clear that Mark Calloway loves his job too much. I think the Undertaker’s been around WWE longer than every wrestler pretty much. They don’t call him the Dead Man for nothing.

Thought: One thing the Rock proved about his return to WWE last Monday…

Leave a comment

What is one thing that the Rock proved at his return to Monday Night RAW last Monday? The only thing that the Rock proved is that he belongs in “wrestling”, not in the “movies”. It really is true if you think about it. Other wrestlers can leave wrestling and go to the movies, but not the Rock. The Rock is wrestling, he’s not a movie star, at all.

I mean, most of his movies in his filmography, didn’t do so well in the box offices. He only had a very few successful hits like, “The Scorpion King”, and “Get Smart” were his two biggest films. The other films he did okay in the box office. His last movie, “Faster”, pretty much flopped.

The Rock is known for wrestling forever. This is why, every time he makes movies, people beg him to return for wrestling. Wrestling fans felt that he left a good career behind him. Rock was at the top of his game 7 years ago, and suddenly, he left wrestling to do “The Scorpion King” and a bunch of other movies after that.

During Rock’s film career, he even tried to drop, “The Rock” name and go under his birth name to promote in the movies. That didn’t work out,  people still saw him as the Rock in wrestling. Every time he did an interview for TV, the interviewer can’t help but ask him if he’ll ever return to wrestling.

I said it before and will say it again. The Rock is a true wrestling icon. Stone Cold, Hulk Hogan, Undertaker, Shawn Michaels, etc. All those guys are icons as well, but they are not in the Rock’s league.

The reason everyone loves the Rock so much is because of his great mic skills and the sense of humor of his character. His character is very comical obviously. He’s like a comedian in wrestling. Plus, Dwayne’s mic work is very unique. The Rock is great at talking really fast without messing up a word, plus, he knows how to control a crowd. He does speeches better than any other wrestler. This is why people are obsessed with him. Even if people aren’t wrestling fans, the non-wrestling fans even like the Rock.

He’s a better actor in wrestling than he is in the movies. His acting in movies is okay, but nothing really special. The Rock is only good at action movies.

I’m glad Dwayne finally realized that he shouldn’t ignore wrestling. I’m sure he thought fans no longer cared for him after he left 7 years ago but he thought wrong. Fans still love the guy.

Steve Austin should take note. Austin left the WWE for the movies, so hopefully Austin won’t ignore wrestling completely. Austin sure didn’t ignore wrestling completely since he’s going to be host for this year’s “Tough Enough”, but hopefully Austin will make occasional appearances on RAW as well.

When the Rock came out to the ring last Monday on RAW, you can tell by the look of his eyes, he misses it. Of course, I don’t see Rock ditching his movie career at all for a full time wrestling return, though. He seems to want to be a “celebrity” than a wrestler. The only reason he got into wrestling ’cause he was born with it,  his entire Maivia. Samoan family were into it.
