:rolleyes: Gail, the WWE has turned you into a jobber. :thefinger

If she ever wrestles for TNA again she must apologize before she wrestles one match.

Gail's fans have long been writing to her that the WWE is misusing (which they are). She insists that she is happy in WWE. But, i am begin to wonder if she only says that to not get in deep water w/ WWE. Gail was the number one female babyface in TNA. She should be the same in WWE, but alas they are too stupid to know how to book her right.

I don't see how she could be happy as a jobber.
She just dosen't want to be fired for saying anything against the WWE.
 
During a backstage segment on last week's episode of Impact, Tara said TNA creating the Knockout Tag Team Championship was something "WWE would have never thought of." To clarify, a Women's Tag Team Championship has in fact graced a WWE ring. The Women's Tag Team Championship was established in 1983 and lasted through 1989 when it was abandoned. The belts notably changed hands during the inaugural Royal Rumble as The Jumping Bomb Angels (Noriyo Tateno and Itsuki Yamazaki) defeated The Glamour Girls (Judy Martin and Leilani Kai) in a two out of three falls match.

Tara is correct. The WWF never thought of the belts.
The Women's Tag Team Championship were from the NWA, the WWF just
"adopted" the titles.

The WWF Women's Tag Team Championship was a short-lived title in the World Wrestling Federation. When Velvet McIntyre and Princess Victoria joined the WWF in 1984, they were already the reigning NWA Women's Tag Team Champions. The WWF, however, had since withdrawn from the National Wrestling Alliance, who owned the championships, and McIntyre and Victoria were instead recognized as the first WWF Women's Tag Team Champions.

I forgot about this until i saw it in the Encyclopedia. Regardless, WWE long dropped this idea, and most fans did not even know this existed. This would never happen today, w/ the WWE's lack of interest in women's wrestling.
 
TNA's Jeremy Borash revealed during a live Twitter webcast today said that former Knockout Roxxi will be returning to the company to participate in the Knockout Tag Team Title Tournament. Roxxi will partner with Madison Rayne.

Good move by TNA. :thumbsup:
 
TNA Knockouts TV Show On SpikeTV?

TNA is still toying with the idea of a Knockouts TV series. With TNA’s new deal with Spike TV, TNA can offer the show to Spike, and if Spike turns down the show, TNA is free to show the show around to other networks.

There is a new version of Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling being shopped around to networks. There was a pilot shot a few months back in Los Angeles, which is the old concept with “a 2009 spin”.

Wrestlicious still has no TV deal in place, contrary to rumors that they would begin on TV this fall. There has been no more tapings since the original ones, and while Bischoff-Hervey Productions were rumored to get on board with them, nothing new has come from that.

The word within TNA right now is that Jeff Jarrett is very likely to return as an on-air talent soon. The PWTorch Newsletter reports that most people within TNA believe he will also retain some of the backstage power he lost when he was sent home following the issues that arose from him dating Kurt Angle’s ex-wife.

Jarrett still has many friends and allies within the company, but the majority of the TNA locker room (and even some office workers) are against the idea of bringing him back. As previously reported, most of the TNA roster sided with Kurt Angle on the issue. Not just for political purposes, but also on a personal level.

I see from one of the many informative websites out there that Daniels was picked up for DUI in South Carolina last night...
 
Report: Traci Brooks NOT Appearing in Playboy Magazine
by Nick Paglino
Sep 01, 2009


Playboy Magazine's September 2009 Cyber Club VIP Newsletter is reporting that TNA Knockout Traci Brooks, real name Tracy Brookshaw, will not be appearing on the cover of Playboy nor will she appear in the magazine at all. Instead, Playboy has opted to feature her shoot online, and Brooks' photos will be released for Cyber Club members.

Brooks was initially scheduled to appear in the magazine and on the cover, however, after actress Farrah Fawcett ****** away in June, Playboy decided to pull Brooks from the issue and focus the entire magazine on the life of Fawcett.
 
I thought that show was going to be on FOX.

Since TNA just signed a new three year deal with SpikeTV I don't know why their new show would be on a different station.

Yeah, I read that he was leaving Greg Helms place after having a ******** game with him. I'm sure Will E will say that it was set up by Vince McMahon.

:nono: It might have been, were you there? ;) :tongue:
 
So apparently both Kevin Thorn and Kizarny (former WWE talent) were spotted backstage at the most recent TNA tapings. Hopefully this will lead to Thorn getting some work with TNA. I always thought he was misused in WWE, as was his incredibly hot valet.
 
All-TNA Knockouts Series Update,[/url]

TNA is once again toying with doing a separate television series on the Knockouts. The company now has the ability to shop series to networks outside of Spike, hence the renewed interest in the idea. This is also one of the reasons the company launched the Knockouts Tag Team Championship tournament.

*Spoiler* For Impact, More...

As reported yesterday, former TNA Knockout Roxxi will be returning to the company for the first time since her release at this week's Impact tapings in Orlando. The initial belief is she is being brought back for the Knockouts Tag Team Tournament, but could get her job back if she performs well and garners a strong reaction from the crowd.
 
Kurt Angle Breaks The TNA Title Belt In Anger?, More...

Apparently Jeff Jarrett and BG James had a falling out recently. The PWTorch Newseltter claims that Kurt Angle told James to tell Jarrett that he was going to kick his ass next time he saw him. James relayed the message, but Jarrett claimed he was told Kurt threatened to **** him. When James was asked to clarify, he said Kurt merely threatened to beat up Jarrett, not **** him.

Another Kurt Angle story making the rounds is that he recently got so fired up when talking about Jarrett that he slammed the TNA Title belt down and accidentally broke it in the process.

He needs to get it together or leave.

I'm tired of these stories all the time.

Not everything is about you Kurt. :tongue:

Not to split hairs Will E, but didn't JR say the same thing on his blog earlier and receive a spitfire response for his trouble? Poor ol' JR...:hatsoff:
I do agree. Angle has become some sort of weird primadonna hybrided with a whole lotta muscles and athletic ability...he's bringing the wrong type of attention to TNA at a time when they're really starting to break out. He's still money in the ring, but really, really needs to get his act together.:helpme:

JR is not a TNA fan, he works for the WWE and he should keep it to himself.
He is carrying out the agenda of Vince. ;)

Angle does bring the wrong attention to TNA and now Christopher Daniels and his DUI.

Angle is boring, I'd rather see Lance Storm and Dean Malenko in TNA.
