Lita: Rumor alert Dude in line at Backlash mentioned that she left because she had been sleeping around on Adam (Edge) and when he found out he told Vince that he would not work in the same company as her, much less be anywhere near her. She's working in Atlanta now at the local hard metal radio station, which I found kinda funny at Backlash. Here she was, for the first time that I know of, working in the same town and at the same time as both Matt and Adam, and yet they are working for different companies..
"young" divas: Victoria is in her late 30's-early 40's.... Torrie is late 20's at LEAST... I think Melina and Ashely are on the younger end, and they are mid 20's...

I'm surprised that Vince let that go on and didn't just switch her to ECW or Smackdown (which would be moot now being that Edge went over there. They can have him)
I'm not that big a fan of the divas. I usually end up turning it when they come on to wrestle.

Does anyone know if Jake Roberts is still professing to be a Christian? I know he had a time of weakness and was wondering if he got back on track.
I heard Nikita Koloff was a Christian and I believe Hawk was when he passed away.

The last I heard of Jake Roberts was a few years ago. He was on some Christian tv program talking about Christ. I really couldn't tell you how many years ago that has been.

This came from the WWE website, which I don't recommend to view if you have children in the room. It's not pornographic, but like I said before, the divas today seem to be hired to be eye candy and nothing more. I've also edited it for content.
“You never stop battling addiction,” said an emotional Jake. “You never become free from the monster. You might keep yourself in check, but sometimes the monster gets loose. If I do have a relapse, or whatever you want to call it, I pick my [rear] up and start again. It’s the only way I can live and it’s the only thing I can do. It’s something I would never wish upon anyone.”
The last I heard, he had problems to overcome, but declared that with God's help he'd do it.

Has there been any new news on Shawn Michaels?
Last night, JR and Jerry Lawler were saying that Shawn has been told by the doctors that they've done all they can for him. I'm taking that to mean he's either going to retire medically - again - or God will heal him and he'll be back (Sorry, Arnold!).
You know, this whole thing with Vince as "ECW Champion" is getting on my last nerve. Is this man's ego so huge that he has to be involved in not only the ownership of WWE, but it's "competition" as well? Come on, Vinny Mac. We all know that you couldn't wrestle your way out of a wet paper bag, and if it came down to a fair fight between you and Bobby Lashley, it would be a "two-hitter"; him hitting you and you hitting the canvas! Give it up you big-nosed buffoon! Go back to the boardroom where you belong - sitting to the left of your wife, Linda - the "real boss" of the WWE!

I did not enjoy RAW last night. The mixed gender match really got me upset. I know its all staged and she didn't really get hurt, but why did they have to have Carlito and Tori in the ring together like that. It was wrong.
I'm looking forward to the draft in two weeks. So, who do you guys want to see on which show? I'm hoping RAW gets Kane back. If not Kane, Undertaker would be nice.
And what was with the crowd booing Cena during the match the other night? I have to admit, I used to hate Cena, but like he says, he never backed down from a match. He won me over.

The whole show was terrible from the start. Don't get me wrong, WWE is full of HORRIBLE acting and actors/actresses but last night was the pinacle of bad acting. From the very start there were the divas wrestling in bikinis. It was terrible.

They are doing a concussion angle with HBK. He had knee surgery last week.
RVD's contract is almost at it's end. I think there going to do the same with him to get him off t.v. The last I saw he turned down WWE's latest offer.
The "acting" of the wrestlers and divas is not as good as a few years back. I think it may have a lot to do with the amount of time the younger guys spend working on their skills. Bobby Lashley is a great athlete, but he is not good at promos yet. Some people never get real good at it (Benoit).
I think the acting will get better in time as they get a little older

Rick Flair is a "good" actor as far as promotions but has gotten horrible as a wrestler as he has gotten older. He really just needs to retire.

I read on a wrestling web site that this was gonna be his last year to wrestle (full time).
They may induct him into the HOF next year. His timing is not what it use to be. But at 58 or 59 he's still pretty good.

LOL I dread everytime Lashley opens his mouth with a mic. He'd cut a more impressive figure if he didn't try to talk smack. It just doesn't work with him.
Flair...what can be said about him. I never really thought he was a great wrestler anyway. All he seems to do is run around the ring chopping people in the chest. He has that and the figure four. The funny thing is, Flair will talk about other wrestlers not being technical wrestlers. I haven't seen him in a match where he did more than chop someone in the last five years. I think it is time for that boy to retire.
The only highpoint last night was the "conversation" between Umaga and Khali. That tickled me. It's like watching the Tasmanian Devil try to have a conversation with Sylvester Stallone.

Who will go to raw in the draft? It will have to be a main event level guy. The only one raw has right now is Cena and maybe Orton. It will be several months before HHH and HBK come back.

I heard Triple H was supposed to return at Summerslam in July. I'm hoping to see Orton go. I really can't stand him. I also wouldn't mind seeing "the World's Greatest Tag Team" either a) get split up, or b) go to a different show.
I would like to see CM Punk on Raw also. He's grown on me.

Not much to talk about as far as smackdown goes.
I did see on a wrestling website that Ric Flair may get another title run. It didn't say what title though.

Thanks for the info on Shawn. I hate that Vince has the ECW Championship. The only way he won cause he used his son Shane and Umaga. Hope Lashley wins back the title at One Night Stand.
