Jerry “The King” Lawler suffers heart attack during RAW (UPDATE)

September 11, 2012 Leave a comment

 

WWE superstar, Hall of Famer and commentator, Jerry “The King” Lawler, he suffered a heart attack during WWE Raw last night.
He was taken away and taken to the hospital leaving fellow commentator, Michael Cole, to finish the show off on his own, his family and the WWE admitted to what happened and last reports I read up, he is in a steady condition and breathing on his own now, which is always good to hear at least
Hall of Famer, Jim Ross, said that one reason this could’ve happened is possibility of block arteries but we won’t know for certain until the hospital gives full details on his condition, we all pray for his health and to have a good and speedy recovery!
(#PrayForLawler is trending on Twitter if you want to contribute to Jerry Lawler’s recovery)

 

UPDATE – A new update has arrived not long ago about the condition of Jerry Lawler, his ex-wife mentioned that he is “Heavily sedated”  and has said that it is clogged arteries, he is in for a Angioplasty which involves blowing a little balloon inside him to open up his blocked up arteries and then inserting some mesh tubing to keep them open, sounds complex.

Jim Ross has said on twitter not too long ago that “Lots of speculation re: my dear friend @JerryLawler. He’s stable & being expertly cared for in Montreal following heart attack. Stable=good”

At least his health is being taken care of and is in good hands, I doubt he will return to WWE soon, again, praying for his health and good recovery!

Jeff Hardy Court Case Finally Resolved

September 11, 2011 Leave a comment

Good news and bad news for Jeff Hardy fans, the good news is that the court case about Jeff Hardy and the drug charges has FINALLY been settled recently, but the bad news is that he has been found guilty to one charge out of the 4 he has been pressed against.

The other charges have been dropped lucky enough for Jeff but he has to serve 10 days in jail along with 30 months of probation and a $100,000 fine. He got away with a “Slap on the wrist” with just one drug charge being guilty for and the rest of the charges were dropped, what happens to him now with TNA and with his life is upto Jeff himself but TNA hasn’t said anything about dropping him so at the moment, he is safe in TNA for the time being.

Just be glad that after nearly 2 years of confrontation, the court case is finally over, we can all breathe a sigh of relief and a bigger sigh for Jeff himself

WWE Releases Several Wrestlers, TNA Releases 2 Wrestlers

August 5, 2011 Leave a comment

It’s been announced today that several wrestlers have been released from the WWE, it comes as a shock and their cuts are effective immediately.

The following wrestlers have been confirmed to being cut from the WWE:

  • Melina
  • Vladimir Koslov
  • Chris Masters
  • David Hart Smith
  • Gail Kim (Not 100% official yet, she claims that she has quit)
It’s uncertain if there will be anymore cuts from the company, I’ll update the list if I hear anymore releases
From TNA/Impact Wrestling, Desmond Wolfe has been released from the company, he was pretty much still unable to wrestle, from what I read up, Dixie Carter gave him a non-wrestling role, hense him setting up the Xplosion Championship Challenge but after several weeks, the decision was made to release him.
It’s a shame as I like Desmond Wolfe, has good charisma and did some great matches in his early TNA career, Dixie Carter really tried her best to keep Wolfe in the business but it was all for nought in the end.
Also, Amazing Red has parted ways with the company too due to the creative team “Has nothing for you” as he explained on his twitter account, I hope he finds work soon, hate to see such talent go to waste!
Good luck to all those released in their future careers, shame to see you all go!

 

Wrestling Legend Randy Savage Dies

May 20, 2011 1 comment

This is a sad day for the wrestling world as legend, Macho Man Randy Savage, has died at the age of 58. He was killed in a tragic car accident when he suffered a heart attack whilst behind the wheel of his car and lost control, causing a crash around 10:00am ET in Tampa, Florida.

This is grave news indeed as he only recently celebrated his first anniversary with his wife, Lynn.

I remember growing up in the late 80s and early 90s watching him wrestle with many other legends like Hulk Hogan and Ultimate Warrior, hearing about this has upset me greatly, he will forever be greatly missed.

Rest In Peace, Randy Poffo aka Randy Savage

Final win – Jaff Jarrett

Match 7 – Sting vs Rob Van Dam vs Mr. Anderson (TNA World Title)

Winner – Sting

Match 8 – Immortal vs Fortune (Lethal Lockdown Match)

Winner – Fortune

———————

Overall – The first hour of the PPV was just a complete mess, the Xscape match finished in a unexpected turn and most of the other matches either fell flat or just went on for too long. The knockouts title match I can understand, Mickie James is suffering from a shoulder injury before the PPV so they had to cut it short for her to win the belt and have a rest.

The best match was the Kurt Angle and JJ “Ultra Male” match, really had alot going and showed the most promising with a surprising finish. The world title match was just meh and so was the Lethal Lockdown match, all in all, it’s a below average PPV.

Final Resolution

5th December 2010

Results

 

Match 1 – Ink Inc vs Beer Money (#1 contender for tag titles)

Winner – Beer Money

Match 2 – Mickie James vs Tara (Falls Count Anywhere)

Winner – Tara

Match 3 – Robbie E vs Jay Lethal (X Division title with Cookie suspended in cage)

Winner – Robbie E (by DQ)

Match 4 – Rob Van Dam vs Rhino (First Blood Match)

Winner – Rob Van Dam

Match 5 – AJ Styles vs Doug Williams (TV Title)

Winner – Abyss

Match 8 – Jeff Jarrett vs Samoa Joe (Submission Match)

Winner – Jeff Jarrett

Match 9 – Jeff Hardy vs Matt Morgan (With Mr.Anderson as special referee for the TNA World Heavyweight Title)

Winner – Jeff Hardy

 

Overall – It was a OK PPV, couple of over-advertised matches, from what I heard from PWTorch, Jeff Hardy was nearly taken off the championship match due to being “Hammered” backstage a few hours before the PPV started.

The tag team division seems to always be TNA’s main strong point, the motor city machine guns always deliver good tag matches, while the X division has just withered down to almost nothing really, TNA really needs to spice up their story plots and each division in order to get good results.

TNA announce new title belt

November 9, 2010 Leave a comment

TNA announced at their Thursday recording today, thanks to PWTorch for the information, that a new TNA World Heavyweight Title belt has been made, the image below shows the new belt being held by Jeff Hardy.

It’s a purple and silver championship belt, made by the request of the “Immortal” group, just for Jeff Hardy, it certainly looks awesome but why silver and purple? Surely top title belt colours have always been gold, right?

Tune in to TNA on Thursday (Or Saturday if you live in Europe) to find out more about this new title

Overall – The PPV was kinda all over the place at times, best matches of the night was the Team 3D vs MCMG and the main event with Jeff Hardy and Matt Morgan wasn’t so bad either, the rest of them could’ve done with some work but not too bad I suppose.

Undertaker injuried once again!

November 2, 2010 1 comment

The Undertaker has once again bit the bullet and is out of the WWE for the rest of this year after suffering a badly injured shoulder

It is beileved that Undertaker has suffered a torn rotator cuff in his shoulder and may require surgery which will make him absent for the rest of this year, maybe longer.

The loss at the Buried Alive match against Kane at the Bragging Rights PPV was the best way for Undertaker is disappear for awhile while he gets his shoulder looked into.

This isn’t the first time he has been injuried this year, several months ago, he had to get the orbital bone in his nose repaired after a match with Rey Mysterio on Smackdown.

I honest don’t think he has much left in him, give it about 2 or 3 years and Undertaker will probably leave the WWE and retire from wrestling

It is uncertain when the Undertaker will return, I will update you as I find out for myself

Overall – The PPV was a surprising hit, Ric Flair showed that he still had some fight left in him. The tag match for the vacant tag titles was a great and possibly the best match of the PPV with the Kurt Angle/The Pope match a close second. Pretty good PPV with plenty to see and plenty of enjoyment, good job TNA!
