Dolph Ziggler is one who I have been impressed with every time that I have seen him. He has a natural charisma and fire that is almost unmatched in WWE at the moment. He has also looked like he can be decent as a wrestler if given the chance.

I'm hoping that a move to Smackdown is going to do him a bit of justice.

Yeah, agree with that. He's now the only survivor from the Spirit Squad and could do well with this move. I know Kenny Dykstra got a run, but he never really took advantage of it. Besides, he always reminded me of the ex-Dundee Utd 'keeper.

And the final pick of the additional draft is...

The other one of the Bella twins to RAW what an anti climax.

Anti-climax sums it up well. You called it earlier on - Morrison to Smackdown was probably the pick of the draft.

With any luck he'll be elevated to Main Event status while there.

Is WWE Superstars only for the US only or will it be shown in the UK as well, if so when and what time?

There's been nothing confirmed yet. The first episode won't be shown over here - that's for sure. Having seen what happened at the tapings (they recorded it over Monday and Tuesday), there was at least one match that had an effect on the other shows:

Christian beat Finlay in a No.1 Contender's match for the ECW Championship.

Hogan has lost the plot :lol:

The well-documented war of words between Hulk and Linda Hogan has taken an ugly turn. The New York Post has some quotes from a recent interview Hogan did with Rolling Stone magazine where he talks about understanding how O.J. Simpson could [allegedly] murder his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson.

Linda Hogan walked out on Hogan last year, filed for divorce, forced him out of his $18 million mansion, allegedly started spending the couple's money at the rate of $40,000 a month and is dating "some shaggy-haired pool boy 30 years her junior."

Hogan tells Rolling Stone, "I could have turned everything into a crime scene, like OJ, cutting everybody's throat. You live half a mile from the 20,000-square-foot home you can't go to anymore, you're driving through downtown Clearwater and see a 19-year-old boy driving your Escalade, and you know that a 19-year-old boy is sleeping in your bed, with your wife . . . I totally understand OJ. I get it."

Hogan has since backtracked on the statement as his P.R. rep, Elizabeth Rosenthal, told E! News that he "in no way condones the O.J. situation."

"As part of a larger conversation, he referred to it to exemplify his frustration with his own situation," Rosenthal said in a statement released to E! News.

Linda's rep, Gary Smith, issued a statement on her behalf, reacting to Hogan.

"Hulk's serial cheating destroyed our marriage, our family and our future," Linda said in a statement released today. "Sadly, his recent comments remind us that his definition of fair is much different than what the law dictates."

"We have always maintained that the fear that Linda has had to live with comes from the rage and instability much too often associated with pro wrestlers," Smith added.

"We have always maintained that the fear that Linda has had to live with comes from the rage and instability much too often associated with pro wrestlers," Smith said. "Linda and her family are taking these recent homicidal comments seriously. Linda's attorney Ray Rafool is weighting all options necessary to protect his client."

:lol:

Aye, because they had enough ring time for anyone to make that judgement.

To be honest I was actuallly talking aboo the gimmick :lol: . I dunno why but it's just a bit hard to believe that a group of male cheer leaders could beat anyone up :lol: . As for Zigglers new gimmick, he looks like a porn star.

WWE ring announcer Tony Chimel announced at last night's Raw house show in Dublin, Ireland that the Undertaker's retirement tour would take place in April 2010.

WWE.com has the retirement tour listed under Germany's scheduled events as, "WWE SmackDown & ECW Present Undertaker's Rest In Peace Tour."

Below are the tour dates:

Thu, Nov 5 WWE SmackDown & ECW Present Undertaker's Rest In Peace Tour - Frankfurt, Germany 8:00pm

Wed, Nov 11 WWE SmackDown & ECW Present Undertaker's Rest In Peace Tour - Stuttgart, Germany 8:00pm

Thu, Nov 12 WWE SmackDown & ECW Present Undertaker's Rest In Peace Tour - Leipzig, Germany 8:00pm

Fri, Nov 13 WWE SmackDown & ECW Present Undertaker's Rest In Peace Tour - Hamburg, Germany 7:00pm

Not really sure how reliable the source is as it say April 2010 yet lists the dates as all being in November and only in Germany.

I'm not sure what the Dolph Ziggler gimmick even is, apart from the fact that he's very approachable and for all intents and purposes, should be a babyface. He says hello to everyone ! Lovely guy.

What was YOUR source on that btw ? Could be a good 'un.

It seems that it's true. The RIP tour is hitting Ireland in November. It's the RIP tour because it'll be The Undertaker's last tour in the UK.

Jesus, it's actually gonna happen.

I'm gonna get going reviewing a whole bunch of stuff. Some of it new, old, never seen and just some stuff I want to see again. I won't be doing anything bad and I'll be doing it in full PBP form so as I can bore you to tears. Plus, I like that kind of thing more. Helps me get more into matches with a story.

I guess my plan of heading to Doncaster for 1PW next year is out. He is one of the few men I've yet to see that I really want. I'm not really botherwed where the show is but me and my mate are gonna go see him before it all ends. There has even been talk of heading to WrestleMania next year to catch him. I guess the only one left is Shawn Michaels.
