Wrestling Thread Aug 1-7 | 8/7 TNA Hardcore Justice - Sting vs Angle, Aries vs Kendrick vs Shelly

Maybe if this was like the London/Kendrick situation but c'mon! This was a segment that was likely done when the cameras were off to keep the crowd hot.

Guess the Smackdown  main event for NOC

 

[quincy powell]

Finally seen RAW....somebody needs to edit the ending. When CM Punk throws his belt up the Guile Stage Theme should start.

 

[hymen man]

damn, hombre is in full mark mode right now... he won't even agree that the burial of zack ryder was bad. and yes! once HHH pedigrees you, your soul is 75% towards heaven/hell.. so nuh uhhhh, you can't tell me nothin'

 

[hombrelobo]

Not mark mode, my man. Just not in smark mode. You guys just hate HHH. If you saw the vid you wouldn't be worried about Ryder. It was just Trips having fun and "welcoming" Ryder. Also, Ryder sold that pedigree like it killed him. What's not to love about that? It's not like HHH beat him for the Internet Championship...

WWE Tough Enough contestant Jeremiah Riggs told the Around the Octagon website that WWE officials informed him that they will not be offering him a contract. "I was informed yesterday that the WWE isn't going to use me," Riggs said. "Two weeks ago I was invited to go to Tampa to tryout for FCW and from what they gathered they loved my personality but they said I was only average in the ring and said I have a bad attitude and carried myself like I had something to prove.
"I told them that if I'm average I'm doing pretty damn good considering I had only done this for two months. If I can get to average in several weeks imagine what I can do in a few months. And of course I'm eager to prove myself. I was surrounded by guys who had done this for several years and they were all wondering who this new rookie was. I had to show them I belonged."

Riggs wasn't complimentary of the WWE developmental wrestlers. "90% of those guys are vanilla. They are all the same. Long hair, pony tail, boring as can be. The day I left Tampa I shaved my head because I didn't want to be anything like them. I'm Jeremiah Riggs from Vicksburg, Mississippi. I'm not going to be a clone. All of their promos sounded the same. They are boring and play it safe. People are afraid of the truth.

"What do they want in a superstar? I don't need a character. I'm Jeremiah Riggs. I don't need a new name or gimmick. The WWE has a s--tty developmental roster. No one stands out. They are all scared of failure and half of them have been there for years. They are all the same and do the same stuff. Sure, they have a few guys that have potential but they are all clones. But I'm not going to be just like everybody else. What are they going to do send me home? You can't scare someone who ain't afraid."

Riggs was also critical of WWE Tough Enough trainer Bill DeMott. "Me and Bill were cool on the show," he said. "I heard he got a job as a scout for the WWE and I was glad to hear he was doing good for himself. He deserves it after so long in the business. When I was in Tampa doing my match with Orlov, Bill was praising me and talking about how good I was doing.

"I was doing stuff that Luke and Andy couldn't do, on the first try. But when I walked into FCW a few weeks ago he acted like he was too cool to talk to me. He's changed man. He thinks he is somebody because he was the big man on the show. I guess Hollywood went to his head. Sure he had a mediocre wrestling career and found new life on Tough Enough. I don't give a s--t. I'll whoop his fat +$@." To read his full commentary, visit AroundTheOctagon.com.

Besides what he said about Bill Demott, Jeremiah pretty much said stuff that was common knowledge as far as the FCW developmental system goes. They basically
teach everybody the same templete type moves, rush them onto tv, shove them down the crowds throats, and when they finally start to catch on naturally (the way it
should be in the first place), they get released cause "creative has nothing for them". There's only a select few, especially since 2005 they are distinct and have
naturally gotten over enough with the crowd.

Some hilarious tweets from Gail Kim regarding the divas battle royal....

----Recently, Gail Kim has been commenting on her Twitter account, @gailkimITSME, and responding to questions as to why she just dropped to the mat and rolled out of the ring during the Diva's battle royal. She says she did it on purpose and adds: "just checking 2 see if any1 was paying attention". When she asked if anyone did she said: "haha no, no one did. Sad right? Verrrrry amusing".

This resulted in someone calling her "unprofessional" and "her own biggest mark," to which her response was: "oh and also on the contrary, I wasn't being a mark 4 myself I was being a good employee when ur told to get out of the ring in less than a min.I just did it the fastest way possibleso really I saved some time!"

Someone else commented that the WWE women's division sucks, but that Kim should should stick around longer. She said: "do u think it will change?" That same person said it was a shame WWE didn't respect women wrestlers, and she replied: "Yes it is a shame I agree. I know it's a man's world but the women are just as important!"

Later she added: "Nooooo I'm not doing my best to get fired."----
