2002 was the Smackdown Six era and 2003 was Wrestlemania XIX. Same firing.

Long story short. He was caught listening to a long range Raw Creative team meeting and Stephanie HATED him.

Hyatt and Raven have levelled that charge against Watts as well. Brian Pillman was a Watts target of Bills too.

I think you are totally barking up the wrong tree. Listen to his podcast last week interviewing Daffney. This isn't a knock on his issues with depression either. But he seems like he is on the verge of mental breakdown obsessing about the internet and his public image. Bischoff takes shots at sheets but at least those are sporadic and he has a lot of outside business interests. I hope his wife or a friend rips his Wifi out the wall for his sake. He is lashing out and contradicting himself too much to be "working the marks."

Zero idea about US law and statute of limitations but Missy Hyatt still doesn't comment on her lawsuit either in fairness.

Has a full version of Steen vs Lawler surfaced? Steen seems to have regained the weight as he reports to WWE imminently.

Meltzer Some more comments here: https://twitter.com/davemeltzerWON/status/496138087487901697 What other contenders are there? Also from the Observer's Daily Update:

IN STEREO Really enjoyed the TNA talk. So many moving parts and schools of thought/speculation about TNA this week. Would love to know the true actions of Bauer, Lagana and Mike Killam. Viewing TNA's history via chisms in key relationships would be pretty interesting: Jeff-Jerry-Russo, Angle-Jarrett-Dixie and Russo-Dixie.

Goodhelmet. Lars probably knows it already but Zayn wore a Rancid shirt on last night's NXT taping:

Devitt is a decently sized guy at about 6ft but his frame is SO lean. Watched most of his career. His face promos were dreadful - Tyler Black bad sans the emo voice. His heel promos relied a lot of on swearing and some xenophobia. He shot himself in the foot not having his own Youtube page to cut promos in my opinion. I've never seen him cut an Americanised storytelling promo. I honestly was tempering my hopes for Devitt - a good, bankable "three year" run with the standard trappings of being on Wrestlemania, an action figure, being in the video game and performing at 02 Arena in Dublin would make me happy as a fan. But I have been talking to a lot of people in NXT this week given Devitt & Kenta's arrival and fears over talent cuts. aA take away from that is what I kind of already knew due to Social Media and Irishness exporting well traditionally. He has the potential to be on the level of the three Shield guys in terms of appealing to women. The Divas and "civilian" women are head over heels for him. Also has gotten over as a "Bret Hart-ish" bland babyface and psychotic heel in New Japan as well in the past six months as this special attraction on the UK Indies. In terms of having a smart head on his shoulders, pleasant, charitable, looking presentable in a suit etc he is the model employee for 2014 WWE and their Corporate initiatives.

There's a spot that has opened up for Adrian Neville on the main event roster - Kofi Kingston's babyface spot but Neville to me falls short of filling it. Tonight's NXT is behind on the recent events of WWE TV. So in feuding with Xavier Woods he is an environmentalist and a racist.

The Ascension is just baffling. The are so mid 90s leather and chains sub-sub Pitbulls. Once Alexa Bliss learns how to sell she'll be a relative goldmine. As given her size and cuteness that's all she needs to do. Bailey does seem on track for a call up. When she was first heard SHIMMER fans questioned it in ring and more casual fans on Social Media posted the cruelest comments (without me digging) I can remember about her looks (face). She's a very good actress in a lives the gimmick sense and KNOWS her fanbase. But tragically she won't pass the Vince McMahon & Kevin Dunn smell test. Fair from an impartial source on Becky Lynch but blew she my mind in her teens and to my money one of the best young Wrestlers in history - so fast and technical. She needs to build her confidence and work on promos VERY hard if she wants to called up. Her charisma and personality is extreme connectic. Just listen to the immediate "Becky, Becky, Becky" chants in Full Sail. Bull Dempsey is too much colour my knowledge he is a tragic ECW's Taz fan from his ring gear to actually training with Taz. His arms relative to his body is flat out embarrassing given his paid to lift weights. Charlotte's in ring and confidence is improving by month. Probably the most noticeable of all of NXT - that's on TV at least. Sasha Banks is on the call up list per tonight's tapings. She's okay in the ring. Acting questionable. She started early on the indies and still just 22. For a woman with a BO$$ gimmick the women and homosexuals in my timeline bury her fashion choices and cheap hair weave. Dylan's praise of her is a surprise. Enzo is in a weird spot given Ricardo's release and Wrestling his history in general. Overpowering babyface manager. Then what?

Holzerman habitually blogging about badly paraphrased versions of what Meltzer wrote or said is one of my favourite things: http://wallsofjerichoholic.blogspot.ie/2014/07/fergal-devitt-signs-with-wwe-and-note.html He seems to never go about improving how he cites things. Meltzer on Twitter described it as completely clueless inclined to agree.

UFC Diaz vs Silva

A point made elsewhere but this is the guy people want to call New Japan 2014 matches.

Young fans today instead of saying "promo" saying "CM Punk is a very good mic worker."

A newzsite took Dave Prazak's deep cut joke way too seriously:

Bauer doesn't record an episode of his Bauer & Pollock without expressing dislike for Lagana.

Surreal day continues: Dusty and Devitt make TMZ: http://www.tmz.com/2014/07/28/wwe-prince-fergal-devitt-dusty-rhodes-nxt/

Wrestelzone: LoLagana Also Jim Ross wrote this on SATURDAY: http://www.jrsbarbq.com/blog/saturday-blog-mark-madden-roh-wrestling-impactspike-tv-ufcfightnight-aj-podcast-rocks-sting

Must say CM Punk picked the right time to leave between the Network and next to zero leverage for talent given TNA's situation.

Exit strategy?

Meltzer: Court Bauer seems to know: Let's panic

PWG tends to be a cool hang for Hollywood & TV producers and actors. To the point there's too many to list. Chris Bauer, from True Blood wore a Drake Younger shirt at the San Diego Comic Con this weekend:
