"I Think I Know Why He May Be Mentioning 'Demons' In His Name. I Think He's Tanked."
-- RD Reynolds on yours truly from the 10/2/09 episode of "Wrestlecrap Radio".


I’m in the middle of a decent “Product Review” that I will post sometime next week. But for now…

It's "Random Thoughts" time. The column where I take news items or things unable to fill a column; like California Governor Arnold Schrawtzenegger at the Golden Globes, he tries to say the movie “Avatar” and in the end you got a column that sounds like “AVA-DAR”. Yeah you’ll be laughed at but at least you have something to think about. Also this is the column where I answer anything that you send me in the form of an e-mail, a MySpace message, NOW Facebook message (link later on in the column), and a Twitter direct message. In exchange I'll answer it for you right here and I will promote or shill for you for anything. Word of Mouth advertising is one of the greatest ways to promote what a person has don't you know?

No mailbag this week yet again and still “Keyboard Cat” is missing. If things get worse I might have to get his non-union Mexican alternative. And no one wants that!

Well enough small talk.

Let’s start off with…

1. The big news this time around is that ECW is dead…AGAIN! The Indy promotion that created a lot of love from fans and made stars from the likes of Tommy Dreamer & the Sandman which got reborn again in 2006 is going to get cancelled due to poor ratings. In its place will be “NXT” which will be a show focusing on the younger talent of WWE. The fans necessarily didn’t love ECW version 2.0 due to the fact that it did try to incorporate some of the Sci-Fi elements that its network “SyFy” tried to do and how it slowly became a bastardized version of the other two shows “RAW” & “Smackdown”. Paul Heyman at said one time that it was an honor seeing ECW coming back from the grave and no matter what happened to him ECW will continue. The fans couldn’t be happier seeing ECW dead and let’s hope that it stays dead this time.

2. Continuing with the dead of ECW, birth of NXT coverage. Somebody at WWE isn’t using Google or GoDaddy.com. I mean at least GoDaddy.com since they did have that “Cylon” Candice Michelle employed. Seems like NXT is already taken. NXT exists in the form of an Indy wrestling farm promotion sponsored by the NWA in Scotland called “NXT: The Next Generation”. NXT recently released a press release about WWE stealing their name and in some weird way they are proud that WWE are using it and at the same time angry about it. That’s how I read it. Either way the Scottish version of NXT will still continue to work tweaking their name to “SWA:NXT”. Honestly I would feel how they would feel. Helpless because they can’t take on a corporation yet proud because that’s my idea. I guess.

3. Well we all know that the hardcore wrestling fans hate our resident Kryptonian John Cena, or “Kal-El” by his birth name. Looks like there is another group of people that hate Cena. Rappers! Rappers have thrown a pro wrestling reference here and there since they, like us, grew up on pro wrestling. Most of the references though were aimed towards WWE Hall of Famer “The Million Dollar Man” Ted DiBiase for being rich and there was that rap song about Ric Flair. Now Rapper Foxy Brown is joining the list of rappers. Here’s the lyric: ”Let 'em Know I will, Slam A B**** On Her Back Like I'm John Cena.” Does she know that Cena is fueled by the light of our yellow sun? OYE!

4. Backyard Wrestling is basically untrained people doing pro wrestling in their homes. Usually it’s a practice that WWE, TNA, and all pro wrestlers are against because it’s dangerous. Think of it like putting a doughy, fat “Star Trek” fan (Send me those e-mails, don’t care) in a ring with a MMA fighter. It won’t look pretty. So what does Hollywood do? Well A&E, the network that brought you “Biography” (which has some cool ones on Ric Flair & Hulk Hogan) & “Dog the Bounty Hunter” is going to air a Reality TV Show about Backyard Wrestling starring…Bob “Full House” Saget! Look I liked “1 vs 100”, I even made a reference to it in my first “Random Thoughts” but creating a Reality TV show in this is a BAD idea. If any of you are stupid enough to attempt it, send an e-mail to Anna Zukowski at AMZCasting@gmail.com. Either way I am washing my hands of this.

5. WWE has been trying for awhile to make pro wrestlers more as of “entertainers” more than anything else. “WWE Films” is a great example of this. Well a WWE star is getting something that no WWE star has even been received before. A TV Show. Santino Marella will be given his own comedy. Beth Phoenix & Vladimir Kozlov will be a part of the show playing his girlfriend and best friend. “Glamarella” reunited and it feels so good! The show will air on WWE.com first and if it gets successful it could land a network deal. Good luck on Santino with the show.

6. I don’t mention Awesome Kong a lot because Kong hasn’t REALLY done anything the like a douchebag named Randy Orton or anybody else would create drama. Well that and I’m afraid that Kong could LEGITIMATELY kill me if I say anything bad about her. Here’s the lowdown on Kong. Hulk Hogan’s buddy turned TNA interviewer “Bubba The Love Sponge” recently said on his radio show, and I quote him here “F-Haiti” referring to the disaster down in Haiti. Awesome Kong happened to be one of the pro wrestlers trying to raise money for that disaster. And when Kong heard what Bubba said. Things got ugly REAL quick. Ended up with Kong kicking Bubba’s ass. Now Bubba, along with “Pal” Hulk Hogan on his radio show said that what Kong did was “menstrual” and Kong wants out of TNA not only for that reason, but for pay as well. “Rumors” have it that Knockouts with WWE experience, most particularly two Knockouts I know so well; Christy Hemme & Tara, are paid more than the other Knockouts. I’ll keep an eye out on Kong for all of you.

7. Sometimes I can go for a good party. But when you party too much you could end up in jail. Such as the case for Chris Jericho & Gregory Helms. Apparently, well according to TMZ.com, Jericho & Helms were having a night out and then they got arrested for public intoxication and Helms & Jericho somehow hit a woman. The woman didn’t press charges for their public throwdown and CM Punk & Matt Hardy got them out on bail. I know, I know, great angle for Punk for his “Straight Edge Society”. But that’s not even the half of it! Helms could be facing “Strike TWO” on the WWE Wellness Policy because he was caught with a Soma Pill on him when he was arrested. So far Helms looks okay at the moment. Another thing I’ll keep an eye out on for you.

8. Bobby Lashley made his STRIKEFORCE debut couple of weeks ago. I’m hoping for those that attended the event with or without Wrestler’s Rescue help enjoyed it as Lashley defeated, nah scratch that, DESTROYED his opponent Wes Sims with a TKO victory in the 1st Round. Well now Wes Sims is crying like a little bitch. Sims is crying on YouTube that Lashley is allegedly taking steroids. Look. All things aside I think Sims could bend me in half like what Awesome Kong did to Christy Hemme but get a life Sims. Lashley was in WWE and he wasn’t tested positive for steroids and he came down with some Hepatitis and that was it. The point is that you lost Sims. Take your beating like a man and move on. Or. Re-train so maybe you can beat Lashley. You know the last time a MMA fighter accused Lashley of anything bad about pro wrestling, the guy was knocked out quick in the MMA ring.

9. Wrestlemania 27 was announced recently. WWE announced recently that it will be in Atlanta, Georgia. In recent years Wrestlemainia has become the equivalent of the Super Bowl & the Olympics when it comes to generating revenue & jobs for people within the area. So for all those in the area. Start saving up your money.

10. And finally. I’ve had a weird week. You wouldn’t believe me. It started out last Monday. I checked my e-mail and you never would have guessed who’s following me now on Twitter? Heidi Montag! Not kidding. Last time Heidi Montag and her husband Spencer Pratt was mentioned here was last summer when I did those horrid “I’m A Celebrity! Get Me Out Of Here!” recaps because of Torrie Wilson and I…hrm…let’s see what did I say about Heidi:

About Heidi Montag:
“Heidi admits in confession (RD: Get ready for a real laugh here) is that her true goal is to be "Mother Teresa" like and that possessions and everything like that doesn't matter. (RD: BWA HAH HAH HAH HAH HAH! What a hypocrite! This is coming from the same woman who was going to bail on the show because she didn't have her clothes, bathrooms, and all the luxuries that she's used to!)”
Quote from “RD: Recap of “I’m A Celebrity!...Two” dated 6/2/2009.


Now if anybody knows me. Giving me Heidi Montag following me on Twitter is like giving me a goose that laid the golden egg. I was ecstatic with creating some Heidi Montag related chaos! Unfortunately those plans failed when no one wanted to join me. So I went along with it for a few days to ponder a new plan. Unfortunately I had no “Pinky” to my “Brain” when a few days later I received another person that is now following me on Twitter. Another one you’re not going to believe! Spencer Pratt. El Gran Douchebag himself from “The Hills” is NOW following me! This was turning into one hell of a surreal moment for me. I couldn’t decide which Spencer Pratt lines what I said about him so I chose two.

About Spencer Pratt:
"(RD: Oh please! TMZ caught him in a lie when he came back. Spencer was SO thrilled when he left. What a disingenuous douchebag!)"
Quote from “RD: Recap of “I’m A Celebrity!...”FINAL!” released 6/29/2009


"Spencer comes into camp and he decides that to "fight evil" that he must think before he speaks. (RD: Really?!? Everybody kind of knows about that one Spencer! Your not only a douchebag, your a f-ing idiot too!)"
Quote from “RD: Recap of “I’m A Celebrity!...Five” dated 6/15/2009


Is it really weird why would these two would ever follow me? I mean do they know how that I tore a verbal a-hole in both of them while recapping “I’m A Celebrity! Get Me Out Of Here!”?!? I mean granted I did it to everybody EVEN Torrie Wilson. I mean are they trying to find people to follow so they can support Heidi Montag’s disaster of a CD (It sold less than 1,000 copies. Twice that of Lillian Garcia’s debut CD.) Are they trying to find fans now that “The Situation” and their ilk from “Jersey Shore” are dethroning “The Hills” as not only a popular MTV show but they are gaining more fame than The Pratts. I mean I really don’t know what’s going on. So Heidi, Spencer, if you are reading this. Look at what you got yourself into!

About Heidi Montag & Spencer Pratt:
"(RD: Quick update on the genetic mistakes that are Heidi & Spencer Pratt. Reports are coming that Spencer wants to sue NBC for the whole experience being the equivalent to "Guantanamo Bay". While NBC basically responds to the lawsuit saying "What are you high?" when The Pratts were treated better than everybody else due to their antics. Well The Pratts returned to the U.S.A. recently. According to TMZ.com Heidi want to do Playboy even though TMZ reported she already took pictures for Playboy. If Sable didn't make me sterile enough when she was naked Heidi might do it. I can't imagine how Brock Lesnar even got Sable pregnant? While Spencer says that he "loves" NBC even though he's suing them. What a pair!)"
