WWE has announced that Dbry is going to get pushed and they are going to take Mason Ryan back off Tv.
Brodus Clay wins his first match back on WWE television!
Randy Orton does not get a title shot at Vengeance.
John Cena and HHH are taking 2 months off too film their new movie, The Chaperone 2: Chaperonier.
Smackdown will now insert 5 minutes of Mark Henry promos at the start and end of each show.
ADR will be treated as the champ and shown to be a legit threat!

So...get to work on those.

WWE took their live events website offline Wednesday afternoon (www.wwelivetour.com) after nude images were published in the photo gallery.

The website features a section where fans are allowed to upload photos. Nude pics of former WWE Divas Chyna and Tiffany were uploaded, which caused the website to be shut down. The image of Chyna was a graphic screen capture from her 2004 pornographic film, 1 Night in China.

The website remains down as of this post; a Not Found error message is displayed.

Sources report that WWE officials are looking at Sheamus to be the next big star for the SmackDown brand and will be pushing him as a major player going into WrestleMania 28. The idea is that Mark Henry, Randy Orton and Sheamus will be the cornerstones of the blue brand.

My prediction is Christian will be the fourth "cornerstone" that the other three get to routinely beat over and over.

IDK, i think mason ryan is an xample of a guy who's going to get a push no matter what. unfortunately i think that putting vince on rock rock will get a guy further than making chicken salad out of chicken shit.

i think you also have to take into consideration that his merch is selling the best on WWE shopzone and at live events. seriously i could go to walmart right now and buy my kid a cena shirt, pair of slippers, and a toy for the price of a shirt at the live events or on the shopzone. as for punk where else but the shopzone or live events can i buy his shirt??

good question and i think the best thing to do is make them a sleazy tag team. rollins is too bland to stand on his own, put him with ambrose and let him leach off the heat he draws.

Mason's going to get a better shot right off than a lot of guys based on his size (and that's just WWE's way of doing things), but they have a long track record of dropping those kinds of guys if they stall out or don't catch on for whatever reason. Look at Ezekiel Jackson right now - six months ago he was on a roll, now he doesn't exist.

The fact that you can't get Punk's stuff everywhere, but it's still selling like gangbusters says something about the demand for it. Hopefully they'll start putting his stuff out there in the places where you can really only get Cena stuff, but I think this is the opportunity WWE's been waiting for in terms of turning Cena heel. I don't know that they will, but one of the big barriers to it finally has an answer.

A Rollins/Ambrose tag team might be the way to go. It's not that I don't think Rollins is ready, but there are already talented guys on the main roster doing nothing right now. Unless they decide to really capitalize on the fact that Rollins' trunks are at least an inch too small for comfort, I don't know how they'd market him...

Like Chris Masters?
Or Daniel Bryan!

Yes, exactly what they were doing with Chris Masters (other than the drop all plans for him and fire him instead of reaping the benefits of allowing him to develop). It's not outrageous to assume a new wrestler is going to be a 2 - 5 year project before you're going to see anything meaningful out of him.

Brodus Clay was trending worldwide on Twitter last night after his vignette aired on RAW. Word is that Clay, who is currently a SmackDown Superstar, will be receiving a decent push on the RAW brand soon. Since the August 2nd WWE Superstars tapings, Clay has won 9 matches on the show over local wrestlers, as well as several RAW and SmackDown dark matches.

Sheamus is an alright push choice if that is how they want to go next.

I usually don't mind his matches. He has a unique look. Is good on the mic. And plays his character okay, though at it's core it's a rather basic mold.

By giving him a main event push and Cody a credible Intercontinental run, hopefully they can work toward building up two new stars.

Not a fan but I don't mind her selling her stuff if that is what she wants to do.

Might as well squeeze as much out of her E rep as possible now that she's apparently getting the picture that various indy feds aren't going to be stampeding to pay her thousands per appearance.

I just hope she stays out of TNA. Her attitude/ego is the last thing a Knockouts division that is trying to refind itself needs at this point.

http://www.lordsofpain.net/news/wwe/...Vengeance.html

WWE is hoping to have next week's RAW and SmackDown do strong builds to the Vengeance pay-per-view, almost like go-home shows with talents from each brand. The final week before Vengeance, the company will tape TV from Mexico City and they will be treating them like special shows.

- Vince McMahon recently made the decision to announce the real weights of WWE Superstars instead of worked weights.

- WWE has hired Chris Russo, no relation to Vince Russo, to a deal. He worked at the Wild Samoan school and did commentary as well as ring announcing.

WWE has applied for a new trademark for Sin Cara in Mexico.

- The WWE Supershow on October 1st in Mobile, Alabama drew 3,200 fans for $92,000.

- WWE developmental wrestler Richie Steamboat and his girlfriend welcomed a 7 pound, 3 ounce baby boy this past week, making Hall of Famer Ricky Steamboat a grandfather. The child was named Richard Blood IV.

- Rock band Nada Surf violated WWE copyright on their new album with a song called "Somebody Take the Damn Money." The song was based on the 1983 feud in the Carolinas where Harley Race put up a $25,000 bounty for anyone who could take out Ric Flair. The song included clips from Race's famous promo. They're currently re-working the song to get through copyright issues.

Because of the violation, WWE took legal action and Nada Surf's new album has been delayed.

HAHA! I am win.
The only unforunate is he has the same gimick as Henry but he is much quicker, and he would have to feud with heels for belts.
Unless he one mans kofi and evan and becomes the tag team champ(s)!

Oh, I saw that one, if only briefly. It wasn't really in the front page, it was in a subsection, but it was there.

That was the last thing I thought I would see in WWE.com. Funny enough, the moment the pic loaded up, I got a 1up in Super Mario World...



No seriously, it really happened. It wasn't a dirty pun...

It's a weird time when all but the tag titles are held by heels. Though to me, Beth is somewhat a tweener.

Its really hard to see beth as the heel in this when she is right.
