psyc0dud3 Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Another wrestler that Stephanie wants to push hard on wwe source: Wrestling Observer Newsletter Stephanie McMahon has declared former Tough Enough contestant Daniel Rodimer as being "the next big thing" and she wants him to start on RAW by January at the earliest. And when he does come up, she wants "something big for him." Internally, according to people who have seen him or worked with him, everyone believes (besides Stephanie) that even a January 2008 call-up would be pushing it for him. Rodimer has only been wrestling since August. Nonetheless, he has the look that WWE loves, moreso than anyone else in developmental, and perhaps some people already in WWE. Rodimer is 6-6 and nearly 300 pounds. The company wanted Rodimer to win the 2004 Tough Enough, but he didn't do much in the competition besides look big and cocky. Also, his promos weren't too good and he didn't stand out in the competitions, which is why he was eliminated fairly quickly. Although, he does have an athletic background as he played college football at the University of South Florida, but was not a star there. Regarding his work in DSW, he gets over in personality there, but his matches haven't gotten over too well - and DSW is considered to be the "easy level." Then again, he just started last August.

psyc0dud3 Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 SPOILERS** WWE SmackDown! Taping Results The following is from Mike Johnson of PWInsider.com: Steel Cage Match: MVP defeated Kane. The finish saw them battling while standing on the top rope. Kane ended up crotched and MVP scampered over the top to the floor. They aired a video hyping the Survivor Series. Gregory Helms defeated Jimmy Wang Yang. Backstage, Vickie Guerrero approached Chris Benoit and wanted to know why Benoit called her lawyer. Benoit said he knew Vickie and Chavo were up to something in regards to Eddie's estate. Vickie told Benoit to stay out of her business and tried to slap him, but he grabbed her arm and stopped her. MVP was in the back and had ice on his head. Ken Kennedy approached him and apologized for throwing him into the ring with Kane and Undertaker last week. Kennedy said this week is about being thankful and he was going to tell the Undertaker how thankful he is. Backstage, King Booker T approached Teddy Long and said he wanted Batista to sign an agreement that if he lost at Survivor Series, he would never get another title match at King Booker. William Regal pinned Brian Kendrick with a Shining Wizard. Mr. Kennedy cut a long promo on The Undertaker. Undertaker appeared during the interview, leading to blood falling from the ceiling onto Kennedy. Finlay defeated WWE United States champion Chris Benoit in a non-title match after Chavo and Vickie Guerrero came out. Chavo hit several top rope frog splashes after the match on Benoit. Match was long and really good. Boogeyman vs. Mike the Miz - Miz walked out and Boogey wormed the referee. In the ring, King Booker cut a promo and demanded Batista sign the agreement. Batista came out. It ended up with the table overturned and Booker laying out Batista after striking him with the royal scepter to end the show. Quote Link to comment

RECIDIVIST_21 Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 Triple H father in law ng me ari ng WWE, I think Batista is underpaid pati si Booker T. Quote Link to comment
Wolf Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 Triple H father in law ng me ari ng WWE. x x x Which is kinda screwy considering all the nasty (and FUNNY) stuff that The Game has done on Vince and Shane, his brother in law. 'loove it! :cool: -------- Methinks Cena deserves the big money.Love him or hate him, he brings the crowds to the shows.His fan base cuts accross the age brackets and even girls (and gays, I presume) love him.Sales on Cena merchandise is one of the highest, I think. But the sad part is, all these stuff is also true with Batista, which is why I said earlier that Batista is way underpaid. Quote Link to comment
teio Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 anyway... mag-iiba din naman 'yang payroll eh... for sure... tataas 'yung salaries nila booker, carlito... and most especially si kennedy... of course... baka pumalo na rin sa $1M ang pay ni kabayang batista... Quote Link to comment

spongebobby Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 wala lang, bigla kong naalala si steve king. i don't think he won even a single match. usually siya iyong pinagpapraktisan nila hogan and andre dati. hehehe. nowadays, it's rare to see matches that are thoroughly one-sided. unlike before. i guess this makes entertainment better. di ko na nasusubaybayan ang pro wrestling, but is there still someone who uses the scorpion disc lock (also known as scorpion deathlock)? it was always used by a guy named ricky choshu. it's probably the toughest submission hold i've seen. i used to try that eh. hehehe. di ko maperfect.
