WWE Superstar Rey Mysterio Jr. will sign:
one in which Raven walked out and much later Chris Benoit, Perry Saturn, Dean Malenko and Eddie Guerrero. One former industry power-player analyzed Dixie's speech by saying she is no Stephanie McMahon but is moving in the right direction: "I don't think she's in Stephanie's league as a ruthless businessperson, but this is how she chose to
publicly address the members of her staff and locker room. If she went this far, she should have offered releases to talent. It's been done in WWE in the past. Bischoff did it in WCW and only Raven took him up on it. It was done in ECW. She wanted to position herself in public and behind the scenes as a strong leader. I don't think she came off as strong as Stephanie, and that's the standard she needs to live up to when she says she wants to go forward and step up in the industry. She didn't do anything wrong, and came across like a person who had belief in the direction she chose. She also didn't instill any confidence, either."
Highspots.com released the following statement regarding the sale of Ric Flair's NWA title belt: 'It has been accurately reported that, Highspots is one of two companies that Ric Flair pledged his NWA belt to for outstanding amounts owed. To ensure that the eventual buyer has no potential issues, Highspots has continued to work with the other holder of the lien on the title belt at issue. After speaking with our counsel, Combraco, Inc. has informed us that they decided to give Mr. Flair an additional six months in which to repay the more than $300,000 that he owes to them. While we are disappointed by the delay, we respect the legal process and continue to work to resolve the issues with Mr. Flair’s other creditors to protect the interest of our customers. In the unlikely event Mr. Flair pays these funds owed, we will be the only remaining lien holder on the belt and will place it back for sale. If he does not, we anticipate working with Combraco after the period ends to reach a final agreement to facilitate the sale. Again, we are sorry for the delay, but Highspots is a long standing and respected company that values its integrity and respect for the legal process. We will continue to hold the belt and will update the situation and contact all individuals who submitted bids again this spring.' * * * * * * * * NASHVILLE, TN: Last night, 11-5-09, at the NWA Main Event Television taping former WWE & TNA referee, Mike Posey, achieved an unique wrestling milestone by serving as both ring announcer and referee for his match with Corey Hollis. Posey was able to dominate Hollis, who had been attacked backstage just prior to the match, until current NWA Mid-America Television Champion, Matt Boyce ran him from the ring. The crowd then began a ten count. Posey was counted out of the ring, and Hollis was announced as the winner of the match. Posey faces Matt Boyce for the Television Title at the next Main Event TV taping on 12-3-09. The match will be featured soon at www.nwame.com where you can view NWA Main Event Television. * * * * * * * * * Bob has some nice eBay auctions up: eBay.com Seller List: bobmul345 * * * * * * * * * * If anyone is interested in booking Bruce Prichard or Gerald Brisco for autograph signings or conventions please contact Georgiann Makropoulos @ [email protected] * * * * * * * |
