American Wolves Update

As of now, there has not been word that the Wolves (Davey Richards & Eddie Edwards) have signed with the WWE. This is after both guys made their farewell at a recent PWG show, stating that they were heading to "Orlando.". TNA is apparently high on both guys.

  1. Batista wrestling TV and house shows? lolwut

    ReplyDelete
  2. Please Wolves go to TNA where you will be used properly.

    ReplyDelete
  3. No real desire to watch the taped Raw tonight, although I may join in on the live thread for shits and giggles if my other plans fall through.

    I don't believe the Batista news, though. What does he gain from a full-time comeback at this stage of the game?

    ReplyDelete
  4. Said no one seriously ever?

    ReplyDelete
  5. 12 months ago... 6 months ago... I might have agreed. Now? No chance in hell.

    ReplyDelete
  6. Another big paycheck? Him coming back for less than BROCK! is getting (overall deal, not per-appearance) would surprise me.

    ReplyDelete
  7. As long as it's somewhere that's not ROH I don't care where the hell Davey Richards goes.

    ReplyDelete
  8. What does he have to gain? Straight cash, homie, that's what.

    ReplyDelete
  9. A full time run after 4 years off at his age? I can't imagine that would last long. It also increases the risk of injury which could affect his acting schedule (the Guardians of the Galaxy movie should give him a springboard to SOME more roles, if anything).

    I just can't imagine why he would agree to doing house shows, and not just TV.

    ReplyDelete
  10. He defeats TV by DQ when house show runs in.

    Book it!

    ReplyDelete
  11. Dixie's new enforcers, perhaps? They're sure likely to get shot up the card faster.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Cash. Plus it might help him cross promote some of his movie stuff.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Yeah, that does seem kind of odd. Maybe he's bored...

    ReplyDelete
  14. TV and PPV appearances, sure. Not house shows, though. That sounds like the trade-off he made that he's going to wind up regretting for more of that cash.

    ReplyDelete
  15. I definitely agree with that. I would love to see Edwards return, though, but I can also see him being the more desired of the two of them by everyone.

    ReplyDelete
  16. I can't see the WWE signing Davey with how prone he is to say stupid stuff and his attitude. My guess is they want Edwards.

    Of course TNA is interested in both guys. They'll likely offer them the same money they were making in ROH with the bonus of being on TV. It would be a terrible deal all around.

    ReplyDelete
  17. I can't imagine him working house shows full time tho. My assumption was he would just be working then to get the ring rust off but i could be wrong

    ReplyDelete
  18. He's there to make money, not to kiss babies and hug fat girls.

    ReplyDelete
  19. TNA and "used properly" in the same sentence? lol

    ReplyDelete
  20. Maybe he just loves wrestling and misses it.

    ReplyDelete
  21. I'm more curious as to whether or not Batista has bulked back up. He was pretty lean when he was training for MMA, and while he was pretty muscular for filming as Drax in Guardians of the Galaxy, he still seemed smaller than he initially was. Regardless, it should be interesting to see how he fits in to a more corporate-minded, PG product than when he left. I could see them giving him a kind of Rock leeway to push the envelope beyond PG a tiny bit.

    ReplyDelete
  22. You need to watch RAW tonight. How else are you going to know if Christmas is cancelled or not?

    ReplyDelete
  23. I assume by the crappy Secret Santa gift I got over the weekend that Christmas was, indeed, cancelled this year.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Glad to know I wasn't the only one!

    ReplyDelete
  25. Another Update:

    Jeff Jarrett has resigned from TNA

    http://www.f4wonline.com/more/more-top-stories/100-tna/34569-jarrett-announces-hes-leaving-tna

    ReplyDelete
  26. Mike Johnson reported that someone who had just seen him said he looked absolutely ripped

    ReplyDelete
  27. He is here to make money, he is here to win championships

    ReplyDelete
  28. WM 30 appearance baby!!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  29. So what you are most interested in is looking at his body? LOLOMGURAFAG /internet

    ReplyDelete
  30. I am rooting for cancelation so I don't have to go to Mama Parallax1978's house on Wednesday

    ReplyDelete
  31. You know why that that happened... you don't need us to tell you (anymore)

    ReplyDelete
  32. I am not buying the Batista stuff until I see him on TV

    ReplyDelete
  33. He bought a ticket?

    ReplyDelete
  34. They probably wouldn't even let him do that

    ReplyDelete
  35. Id mark out if I saw him hit a diva over the head with a guitar at 30. Slap nuts!!

    ReplyDelete
  36. He got a job as a parking attendant?

    ReplyDelete
  37. He is Vince's guy against HHH?

    ReplyDelete
  38. And by Vince, I mean Russo, not McMahon

    ReplyDelete
  39. I guess we know who is main eventing against John Cena now.

    ReplyDelete
  40. That goes on right after sting/taker

    ReplyDelete
  41. Yankee Swaps are the worst but every year, I somehow manage to get the last selection so it works out for me, anyway.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Are you calling Vince McMahon a fag? I'm not saying BB is Vinnie Mac, but that IS Vince's "Do I push this guy or not?" test.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Something about Bully's ass...?

    ReplyDelete
  44. These days, it'd be more like Batista would be distracted by house show's music and he gets rolled up by TV for the fluke pin.

    ReplyDelete
  45. Yea, we are going to need to know what the gift is now.

    ReplyDelete
  46. (Roughly 250 posts to go before the end of the year to meet 'llax's 1500 posts challenge)

    ReplyDelete
  47. This Batista thing's really happening, isn't it?


    I've needed more Hollywood Dave in my life! He'll make these shows watchable again!

    ReplyDelete
  48. Final nail in TNA's coffin?

    ReplyDelete
  49. It was one of those crystal balls that when you touch it, the lightning reaches out to where your fingers are (what the fuck are those things called, anyway? I'm not sure I ever actually knew, and I already threw out the box for the thing).



    You know, because I'm apparently a 20-year-old stoner... I had to go through the night pretending I really liked the thing. I was talking to the girl who bought me the gift later on and she tells me, "It was either that or a Superman jersey (I'm a huge Superman fan), and I thought this was better."



    I'm allowed to fire people over something like that, right? Can someone consult an employment lawyer?

    ReplyDelete
  50. When it comes to the possible return of the Bro-tista gimmick? All bets are off.

    ReplyDelete
  51. Can't have TV look bad.
    Batista rolls up house show when Then...Now....Forever.... randomly pops up on the tron.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Amsterdam_Adam_CurryDecember 23, 2013 at 1:19 PM

    Now I'm going to go out later and hug a fat girl.

    ReplyDelete
  53. He can sing "With My Baby Tonight" as he leaves the building.

    ReplyDelete
  54. WWE.com Article on "Top Ten Shocking Tag Breakups

    Marty and Shawn are number 1 right? Mainly because I can't remember any other breakups off the top of my head.

    ReplyDelete
  55. If she's cute, a blowjob should be the minimal apology required.


    (I Am Not A Lawyer, for the record.)

    ReplyDelete
  56. I really don't want to cross the Hudson to see my family on Wednesday. I'm getting guilt trips every day about going, though. I'd love a day to myself.

    ReplyDelete
  57. They are not. Megapowers are number one.

    ReplyDelete
  58. Chauvinist Jeff Jarrett was a main eventer in my book.

    ReplyDelete
  59. Yea, wtf. If she knew you liked Superman and still went with the stoner gift...fireable offense

    ReplyDelete
  60. Forgot all about them. I like to think I found that one shocking cause I was 8. As an adult, I probably would have seen that coming.

    However, I don't think adult me would have seen Shawn kicking Marty in the face. Didn't think Shawn had it in him to be a heel.

    ReplyDelete
  61. Ain't nothing wrong with hugging fat girls in the winter time.

    ReplyDelete
  62. Yeah, the Rockers turn was much more shocking, even though they were teasing it for a bit leading up to it. The MegaPowers breakup seemed like a foregone conclusion as soon as they started teaming up, despite only being 9 when Mach turned on Hogan.

    ReplyDelete
  63. Definitely better than cute. I won't lie, I wouldn't turn it down...

    ReplyDelete
  64. I wish the fans of WWE would chant "We Want Groot" when Batista's in the ring...

    ReplyDelete
  65. The list isn't actually numbered. I'm kind of surprised they didn't mention HBK turning on Hogan to lead up to SummerSlam. That superkick was shocking as hell. Sure, Hogan and HBK isn't a name team, but that was one good turn.

    ReplyDelete
  66. Amsterdam_Adam_CurryDecember 23, 2013 at 2:09 PM

    Shit man, I'm skinny as hell, sometimes you have to do things that you wouldn't normally do to stay warm...


    Seriously though, we should all go out and hug a fat girl, because most chubby chicks fuck like champs. Straight up porno style and shit.

    ReplyDelete
  67. I got a TV stolen from me last year... ended up with a radio.

    ReplyDelete
  68. Man, Wolves vs. Punk/Bryan or The Shield--I'd point my eyeballs at that.

    ReplyDelete
  69. Would they even have one from the last ten years make this list? Tag teams would get formed and broken up within the span of a few months so often and it would never do either guy any good. (See: The Hart Dynasty, Cryme Tyme)

    ReplyDelete
  70. Those PWG shows this weekend were off-the-charts. Best atmosphere in wrestling today.

    ReplyDelete
  71. You would be correct sir. Off the top of my head the last breakup would be The Hardy Boyz. Matt turned on Jeff right?

    Look at Tons of Funk. They broke up on Raw and had the blowoff on the following Smackdown

    ReplyDelete
  72. I never saw that one. Off to youtube I go

    ReplyDelete
  73. I like how you think. I was with a fat girl once but it was the summertime. Just so much sweat. I have no complaints, but there was just a whole bunch of sweat all over. What I'm trying to say is having sex with a big girl is very tiring.

    ReplyDelete
  74. Isn't he pushing 50?

    ReplyDelete
  75. ORTON IS THE FACE OF THE DALLAS COWBOYS!

    ReplyDelete
  76. He'll be 44 next month, according to Wikipedia.

    ReplyDelete
  77. The Apex Predator will be throwing passes to Dez Bryant and shitting into the bags of the cheerleaders that reject his advance

    ReplyDelete
  78. Dammit, I wanted to see Romo destroy the Cowboys season.

    ReplyDelete
  79. *pours one out for the inability to celebrate a Cowboys meltdown*

    ReplyDelete
  80. He already has, Curtis. He already has.

    ReplyDelete
  81. They could just pipe it in.

    ReplyDelete
  82. What about Miz and Morrison.

    ReplyDelete
  83. I'd much rather they chant: "Groot, There It Is"

    ReplyDelete
  84. "Resigned" is one of my nost hated words for it's ambiguity. Did he leave the company, or did he sign up with them again?

    ReplyDelete
  85. That made me laugh.

    ReplyDelete
  86. Watch this, Kyle Orton will throw for four TDs and lead the Cowboys the victory and the division title, leading to a whole offseason of a QB controversy in Dallas.

    ReplyDelete
  87. On Batista coming back, where's the proof?

    ReplyDelete
  88. Philly win
    Chicago win
    Saints loss
    49ers win tonight
    Arizona win next Sunday (OR, if 49ers lose tonight, SF/ARI tie next week)


    Cowboys, Packers, Saints miss playoffs. The first two would bring me great cheer no matter when they happen. The last... well, New Orleans has BLOWN their way out of the NFC South title... why not the playoffs in whole?


    Worst case: Saints at Cowboys, Wild Card Round. After the Saints lose to Tampa Bay... and watch San Francisco beat Arizona anyway.

    ReplyDelete
  89. Re-signed should be used for a guy staying... Resigned means "fancy way of quitting".

    ReplyDelete
  90. As a 49ers fan both scenarios bring me great joy, however I need NO in the playoffs. They're the only team that will keep us away from Seattle.

    ReplyDelete
  91. The only "elite" team who's season is over in Week 10.

    ReplyDelete
  92. I feel dumb for believing Morrison would be the bigger star.

    ReplyDelete
  93. Just like vs Washington on Sunday?

    ReplyDelete
  94. Seriously, though. I kind of came to the conclusion the other day that Heeltista would of saved these shows.

    ReplyDelete
  95. To the Downvoter:

  96. I thought he was already gone......

    ReplyDelete
  97. Plasma Globe.


    I'd love one of those then again, I'm 20 and I can be easily distracted.

    ReplyDelete
  98. Ooh, look at Mr. I'm-too-good-for-unsubstantiated-rumors!

    ReplyDelete
  99. Steelers gonna win it all.

    ReplyDelete
  100. "Orton once again throwing to that place that no one can get to."

    ReplyDelete
  101. The AFC has little interest or suspense. Other than the hope that Baltimore misses the playoffs, I really don't care how it plays out. Even if that gives New England the #1 seed and a Giant-free road to the Super Bowl.


    Mainly because I have faith New England's patchwork offense will implode at the right time.

    ReplyDelete
  102. I really didn't remember that one til someone said it.

    ReplyDelete
  103. hahaha. I honestly have no recollection of that one. Didn't Morrison team with Joey Mercury also? Did they break up? If Jeopardy had a category on tag teams of the mid-aughts, I'd get every question wrong.

    ReplyDelete
  104. Amsterdam_Adam_CurryDecember 23, 2013 at 4:46 PM

    Having sex in general is tiring.


    Man, I need to quit smoking and start working on my cardio...

    ReplyDelete
  105. Well it's not like Miz is a huge star. If Morrison came back right now it wouldn't take long to surpass Miz.

    ReplyDelete
  106. Amsterdam_Adam_CurryDecember 23, 2013 at 4:50 PM

    You shouldn't, he's far better on any metric of what anyone would consider a good wrestler. The fact that he's doing random indy shows while Miz is making 6 figures from WWE is actually pretty disgusting.

    ReplyDelete
  107. His name ending up in advertisements for house shows seems like a weird mistake to make otherwise.

    And the timing's right.

    There's no proof of anything until it happens. I mean, there's no proof that Zack Ryder isn't going to get a massive push starting next month.

    There's just things that do or don't look too likely.

    ReplyDelete
  108. I would actually have to say that Hogan/Orndorff was better.

    ReplyDelete
  109. A "team" that was together all of...two weeks?

    ReplyDelete
  110. Amsterdam_Adam_CurryDecember 24, 2013 at 5:38 AM

    I actually want the Cardinals to win next week, which is a weird feeling, because I (and just about everyone else) normally give less than zero fucks about anything involving the Arizona Cardinals. I feel the same way about the Bengals, a guy I work with said he was a Bengals fan, and I was astonished by that statement. They actually have fans? I think of those teams as being like the LA Clippers or NJ Devils, teams that only exist because... well fuck, you gotta play somebody.

    ReplyDelete
  111. The older ones are the best. They're more desperate AND experienced, and usually grateful for a guy their son's age giving them one up the ass.

  115. I'm not. Just acting out some of the usual steps that happen around here, as I thought you were. Bored now.

    ReplyDelete
  116. The smart money says he's inked in for house shows because Big Dave's winning the title at WM30. When they had two belts, they could afford to give the Rock one and let the other headline house show lineups. With only one title, they need the champ to work the house show circuits.
