~This is late, I know...but I was so happy to see Raven on RAW last monday.
By next monday I should have a VCR and can start recording him again. I have so many tapes with him and other wrestlers....
Can't wait to see him for more than a few seconds....
December 15, 2002
First off...sorry about the lack of updates, but I've been busy and also with
this sort of website there really isn't a whole lot to update...unless a belt changes hands or I find someone else to add
to the list....
Congrats to Taker and Sara on the birth of their baby girl :D
And now...some comments from the Ross Report....
<<<<<Not sure of the motivation of some individuals who "leak" erroneous information to the wrestling
media, especially as it relates to the contract status of certain talents. I read this week where we are looking to make some
roster cuts with names mentioned. What purpose does it serve discussing this type of information to anyone outside WWE? I
feel very badly for the talents whose names appeared in error because of "sources say." We are constantly evaluating our roster
with the goal to always maximize it and make it the best we possibly can, so making roster cuts is not the news some perceive
it to be. I can certainly understand when we get taken to task for a broadcast that is perceived to be not great, or virtually
anything else we do for public consumption, because our fans certainly have a right to express themselves. But these contractual
matters, I feel, should be off limits, because they more often than not are wrong and it upsets wrestlers and their families
for no reason. Anyone "leaking" this sort of info has major issues to deal with, it would seem to me. >>>>>
I must agree here. It seems the same names always
come up on these lists. And usually, it depends on what board it shows up on. If the person posting it likes the wrestler
or not. It tends to worry family members and fans if that person is actually going to get fired...and people get in an uproar
and turns out it's just a rumor...and whomever started it has caused a lot of shit....
<<<<<I am beginning to really enjoy the dynamic between Victoria and Steven Richards. Something tells
me this pair has an excellent chance to get more than a cup of coffee's worth of exposure on RAW.>>>>>
Yes...this is a very interesting pairing...but then
I've always liked the 'crazy' ones. And since I have been a fan of Steven's for 6 or so years, I'm just glad he's on TV more...I
know plenty of girls that would love to be in Victoria's place right now :D

<<<<<Fat kids suing McDonalds for making them obese is as crazy as some wrestling lawsuits I have witnessed.
~Jim Ross from the Ross Report>>>>>
Okay, I have to agree with this. For one thing, nobody
forced those kids (and adults) to eat McDonald's food. Or any fast food for that matter. I just don't see how they can sue
for something they did themselves...what are they going to sue god next for having no will power!

~some things from the Ross Report for November 8, 2002
<<<<<RAW Superstars included on WWE's Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade float will be Triple H, Hurricane,
Victoria, Jerry "The King" Lawler, Sgt. Slaughter, Coach, Mr. McMahon and yours truly.>>>>>
~Well this year I'll have to make sure I'm up in
time to see the parade...especially since the Hurricane is part of it :D My parents would be watching for The King and Sgt.
Slaughter...especially Slaughter...
<<<<<It is now believed that Mark Jindrak sustained significant ligament damage when he dislocated his
ankle and could be out of action six months.>>>>>
~Gees...I'm not a huge fan of his...but he just seems
to be having problems with injuries lately...everytime he's ready to go something else happens...
<<<<<And the question remains, can Lesnar F5 the Big Show?>>>>>
~Um...No
I hope not...Someone needs to stop him...I was hoping it would be Taker...but
being that he is injured, i guess they couldn't have him beat Lesnar at the PPV...
~Well that's it for today...Until next time....

~some comments on the Ross Report for October 18, 2002
<<<<<There are two ladies matches on this pay-per-view, which is a first for WWE to the best of my knowledge.
Trish Stratus and Victoria have been developing a well-defined rivalry over the past few weeks, and this match should be solid.
These two ladies have certainly been physical over the past few RAWs, and I expect more of the same Sunday. Torrie Wilson
vs. Dawn Marie will provide its share of sizzle as this issue is still developing after Torrie caught Dawn in the shower with
good ol' Al Wilson, Torrie's dad, this week on SmackDown! Yes indeed, that Mr. Wilson is a "randy rascal," isn't he?>>>>>
Well I do hope that these matches are good, simply
because they always seem to mess up a woman's match. Especially when so many of them can actually wrestle now. I'd much rather
see an actual match with females then a gravy bowl match or whatever they can think up.
<<<<<Many fans are sad to see the Intercontinental Title go away at No Mercy after so many years, as it
is a part of the Winner Take All stipulation in the Triple H-Kane matchup. Pat Patterson, who suffered a dislocated shoulder
at the hands of Rosey and Jamal on Monday's RAW, was the first IC Champion, claiming the title in 1979. >>>>>
Now, why exactly are they doing this? It seems that
the only titles that they are going to have left are Tag titles and world titles....
~I have talked to some people about this whole "Kane
is a murderer thing" and we've all thought the samething. Which would be nice. I immediatly thought of Scott Vick when Triple
H said Katie Vick. Maybe coming in as a relative...like a brother or something...and wanting to either revenge her death.
After all Hunter said he didn't dig up the information, soooo...that could mean he told him. It would just be nice to
see him in action again. He is very talented....
October 16, 2002
~This whole storyline with Kane is....interesting, to say the least. They start
to have him come out of his shell then they do this. I love the way his character is showing more of his personality. But
this...now he'll probably go back to his old reclusive self. And you know, no partnership seems to last. Something always
happens. Don't get me wrong, I like this pairing of Kane and the Hurricane. But, sometimes, I just wonder.
And the name they keep saying, Katie Vick. Last week in the results they said
it was Fick and this week Vick. Hmmm....makes me wonder if they might bring in someone for this...say Scott Vick. But that's
probably just hopefull thinking.
comments from the Ross Report for last week;
<<<<<Tommy Dreamer could not compete last week due to extreme lower back pain. He had an MRI and will
need to rest for a few weeks before returning to work. Tommy is getting married this Saturday, and we wish him the best.>>>>>
First off, congrats to Tommy. And second...apparently
he didn't need that few weeks rest. Unless I'm just imagining things, he wrestled Monday.
October 1, 2002
~First off...to be Terri last night. **faints** You know in the last couple
months I've actually started to like her. Go figure.
~I was actually pretty well entertained by RAW. That is the first in a month
or so.
~I love what they are doing with Kane's character. And yes "Freak's Rule".
<<<<<Speaking of enthusiastic, Seattle fans were pumped Tuesday morning at the WrestleMania press conference.
March 30, 2003 is the date for WrestleMania XIX at SAFECO Field, home of the Seattle Mariners. We are all looking forward
to spending some quality time in the Pacific Northwest for our first WrestleMania in that part of the country. It is truly
beautiful there.>>>>>
I must say this is one event I'd love to go to. Considering
the fact that it's actually close to this state for once. Unfortunatly I live in the only state that wrestling does not come
to. And it always seems they hardly ever come to the Pacific Northwest. Maybe by then I'll have some money and a drivers license...don't
let that fool you, I'm not a 15 year old...I'm 21...just never learned to drive yet....
<<<<<We had a productive meeting with the Ultimate Dragon in Anaheim Monday afternoon. He was an amazing
cruiserweight before he was injured while working for WCW in Atlanta and is just beginning to get back in the ring after several
years, while he has attempted to recover from a reported blotched arm surgery. He is several months away from being ready
to debut in WWE, but we hope to do business with him in 2003. He was a pleasure to speak with and is a class act.>>>>>
Now this would be great. I loved what I saw of Ultimo
Dragon in WCW. But then I seem to like all the luchadores.
<<<<<We are going to, hopefully, take another look at cruiserweight Spanky in the next couple of weeks
in a dark match, perhaps in Las Vegas and/or Phoenix. Several other cruiserweights are also being evaluated and will probably
get tryouts soon. There sure seems to be some outstanding talents in this weight category out there. We have missed on some
of these smaller talents in the past but will, hopefully, be able to get back in the hunt for some of them in the future.>>>>>
Whoooo for Spanky. I'm not too familiar with his
wrestling ability but from what I know...This would be great.
They have missed....I'd say so. They seemed to have dropped the lightweights
for a few years while WCW seemed to be over-run with them.
<<<<<Raven, Justin Credible, D'Lo Brown, and Steven Richards are among the talents who are under utilized
on our roster. Same goes to a lesser degree to Tommy Dreamer and Spike Dudley. >>>>>
Well duh. And it always seems that the under utilized
talents are the ones that are very talented at what they do and never get a chance to shine. I just want to see Raven on RAW
again...I do miss seeing/hearing him. I know many hate it when he does his speech's. But I for one love it...
September 14, 2002
~Well, yet another favorite wrestler of mine is out with an injury. Bradshaw
tore his left bicep during his match on Monday and will be out for 4-6 months. Let's see...I'm counting down the days that
Rhyno, Lita, Jazz and now Bradshaw will return....
~Yet again comments on certain things in the Ross Report:
<<<<<Jazz is about ready to come off the injured list from ACL surgery. She could be cleared in a couple
of weeks. Ladies, beware!>>>>>
Whoooo!! That is great news. I know not many people
seem to like her...but admit it...she is a great wrestler. She's not just eye-candy.
Well not many comments this time around...hmmm...The Ross Report also said that
Rhyno has started light weights (i believe that's what it sad) and will probably be sent to OVW for a bit...and that they
may be calling on some of their younger OVW talent soon for TV...yay....maybe Scott Vick will show up now...okay for those
that don't know that is formally Sick Boy of WCW.
September 11, 2002
~Okay, so I saw the whole Billy and Chuck thing. Didn't see anything wrong with
it. Come on people...most likely it will be a wrestling partner for life...think about it...it's not going to be what everybody
immediatly thought...that would be too easy...
And some of these people complaining about this are the same ones there were
completely fine with the bra and panties match we had on Raw last week. Or the lesbian action we had this Monday.
Although I must say I was happy to see Looney Lane and Savvy on WWE TV...in
case you have no idea who they are...they were the two acting as lesbians...Looney was the dark haired female and of course
Savvy the blonde haired one. They are from the UPW fed based in California. Same fed which John Cena came from...otherwise
know as the prototype there....
September 7, 2002
~My comments on certain things said in the Ross Report.
<<<<<Unless plans change, I do not expect to see The Rock back in a WWE ring until after the first of
the year due to his movie commitment. Contrary to what has been published, The Rock has no firm deal for his third movie project
at this time and I feel comfortable in saying that he will be aggressively back in the creative mix as we prepare for WrestleMania,
which is set for March 30, 2003. >>>>>
~Why? It seems to me that Rocky is more interested
in the movies then wrestling anymore. I did not like when he last came back. He was basically handed the belt. His spot should
just go to someone else who has worked their butt off....
<<<<<Rhyno has been cleared to begin very light workouts in the ring at less than half speed. November
is still the target month for his return from neck surgery.
Kanyon is continuing with his therapy and light workouts after his shoulder injury and severe infection, and he will
see his doctor again on Sept. 10 to get an indication as to when he might be able to resume his career.>>>>>
~I can't wait for Kanyon and Rhyno to return...along
with a long list of other superstars.
<<<<<Maven, Nidia, Chris Nowinski, Jackie Gayda and Linda Miles will all be taping episodes of "Blind
Date" in Los Angeles in the next couple of weeks.>>>>>
~Interesting.....not exactly sure what to say about
that...but it should be interesting...
~I'm not sure exactly what all happened with the Billy and Chuck thing since
now I don't get SmackDown till Saturday nights at 11:30pm...but I'll comment on that once I see it. No one has really said
anything about it at all....
I don't know...I'm not to thrilled with this 3 minute thing at all. It was interesting
at first, but it's getting a tad annoying. For once have the person they attack fight back and actually win. They always make
it seem like they forget there are two of them..so they get attacked from behind.
And...there is a god...Tommy Dreamer is still getting pushed...Yay for him :D
