Maybe a little off topic but RWA are running a show in Runcorn on Saturday 30th May.

It's a local promotion in Runcorn that has been running for coming close to 5 years. They run monthly shows and also a weekly training academy. Head trainer for the school is Andy Baker who has trained in pro wrestling for 7 years. 2 of which was spent at Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW) which was seen as a main development school for WWE.

Andy's only apperance on WWE TV was as a contestant in Chris Master's "Masterlock Challenge" in 2005 when the WWE recorded Raw in Birmingham.

Andy prides himself on allowing the local community the chance to be given good training and the ability to show off there skills in local shows designed to offer a good level of entertainment at a price that is both affordable and good value.

If anyone would be interested in attending please get in touch.

Not sure how accurate this is as I don't watch TNA, but I read the other day that last weeks 1hr ECW show had 24 mins of in-ring wrestling while 2hrs of TNA had 17 minutes



Also what is going on with Flair? Is he out of retirement and wrestling again?

I'm being informed by some friends in America (who also happen to be employed by a large sports entertainment company

) that the 2010 HOF is shaping up along with Wrestlemania.

WWE are trying to twist The Rock's arm into one last match at Wrestlemania. He'll be inducted into the HOF quicker if he agrees to a match with John Cena. Cena presented the idea to Vince who agreed in allowing Cena to offer the challenge publicly to The Rock - which is why a lot of news articles are coming out in terms of Cena offering this challenge.

However, part of the suggestion by Cena was that The Rock lost - which would be a bit of a sticky point in getting him to agree. However, it's understood that Cena was overruled on this point.

Now, you'll probably say 'yeh right, talk about crap rumours etc', but the same people were correct when The Rock returned for the Eugene and Coach segment, and the Diva contest which The Rock had a pie segment in.

The Rock V Cena=WOW!

Typos, etc...

Cena is sh*t. Why would the Rock lower himself to that? Stay retired Rock, the WWE has gone downhill rapidly since you left. The only reason this match would be worth it to the Rock, is if he was offered loads of wonga.

Anyone see last night's Raw? OMG Vince's ego took a bruising so he's out to air it on the show.

Raw was ment to come from Denver (I think). However the Denver NBA team (the nuggets

) are in the NBA play offs so they told WWE they couldn't use the arena as they needed it. So Vince got a strop on and spent the first 15 minutes of the show, coming from LA, slating the nuggets and their owner with the usual guys in stupid wigs pretending to be them. Lucky for me I sky+ it because after the first 2minutes of this (which included a video package explaining why vince has his pants all bunched over this) i just had to spin on thru which is how I know the segment lasted 15 minutes.

And they wonder why people call wrestling lowbrow

Just stumbled across the Off The Record shoot-style interviews on that popular video sharing site, worth checking out.

God they're creatively screwed if they gotta fill time with this!

No, they don't have to fill time with nonsense like that, it's Vince's ego that means they do. There are loads of undercard wrestlers that they could have put in that 15 minute slot, but trying to score pathetic points over a perceived slight is far more important than actual wrestling in today's WWE.

So what was McMahon's Million Dollar Mania all aboot?!

Tax dodge and an attempt at grabbing ratings and other media attention
