They'd be dumb not to do it, unless like Time Warner before them, they're tired of wrestling. But in this case it's not too hard to see why.

The Dutch Mantell interview just went up on iTunes.

I get the Che thing but it also looks a bit like this

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8wZUgGm79o I don't remember seeing this at the time, but was the prevailing theory that this was a shoot?

Reruns. Lots and lots of reruns.

FXX would seem ideal, considering they are in a sort of similar position to where what is now known as Spike was when they jumped before. I'm just wondering if the WWE Network is going to make any possible buyers balk.

WWE’s ‘Raw’ and ‘Smackdown’ Poised to Switch TV Networks

It'd be nice if they made edits specifically to have everything from both the live PPV and the Coliseum Video exclusive stuff as well.

I heard he (possibly indirectly) disrespected HHH in the locker room too.

Bagwell seemed doomed from the start. He had the body, but his extensive history with WCW (I could be wrong on this but I think he was in WCW longer than any of the wrestlers that were left for WWE to pick up by the time of the sale) and his ego would have made for a short time with Vince.

Yeah, but this isn't the scratch logo we're talking about here. I can't think of any videos where the older logo was blurred like that.

I seem to remember in WCW they'd always say if the match ended during the break they would show the end of it. I'm pretty sure that's never happened, but I'd love to see if I'm wrong though.

How would that affect something that's purely a visual curio?

Jake just said on Twitter he's announcing who, and says it's pretty obvious who.

Maybe they'll do repeats, but not too sure about On Demand. BTW, what was with Warrior's HOF spot having the old school WWF logo blurred out? The Bobo Brazil spot from Monday night didn't have that, which was a relief but it makes me wonder if the previous blurring was a mistake of some kind.

I don't see Austin for Jake, really. Their paths crossed that one significant time, yes but Ted and DDP are more significant to Jake's history than Austin is.

Roddy Piper debut in WCW. Looking back it's not the best way they could have set up the feud, but the way it starts with the bagpipe music almost fading in and Rod taking his time a little to come out was brilliant. I remember actually shaking with excitement when I saw it because I wasn't as smart to what was going on. I knew people were going back and forth, but Piper always struck me as one of Vince's guys when he needed him.

I wouldn't be surprised if Ted did it alongside DDP. It doesn't have to be just one. Lita was announced tonight. Warrior...yay. Has he made any statements about it yet?

Been away for awhile (not by choice, couldn't log on. So glad the site has updated though so good to be back). Well jeez where to start. I was blown away by WWE's decision to do what I hoped they would and then some. Keeping it online and away from regular television is not only the most innovative but it's the best thing they could do. If they were a regular "network" they'd be beholden to ratings and wind up like several networks that had intellectual falls from grace (Bravo, A&E, TLC, History Channel and so on).

He had a fearlessness to do the silliest things possible outside the ring (even inside sometimes), that could just look stupid if anyone else did it but it would always be balanced in the end by a great match (or at least one that could steal the show). If WWE re-hired him today and put him on Raw tonight, he'd be just as over as Punk or Bryan right now.

Not related but Punk tweeted this image last week.

I hated it when they changed the Saturday Night set in '94 to that crappy sci-fi stuff. The only thing that worked out of that was the intro music.

Piper and Bret are cousins too, are they not? Didn't Ric date Diana for a bit recently, too?

What if he *is* Vince Russo? *dun dun dun*

What happened to TNA being up for sale? I haven't heard much development lately.
