Saw this reported elsewhere as well. Very interesting...

My guess is Booker...He is getting old his contract is up soon and WWE doesnt want to give him the same treatment as Triple H which is what he wants..

So Jeff Hardy wins the title I see, at least thats what I got from KJ's article

Also Marrella is as good as gone he should just start packing his bags and saying his goodbyes now

Which? Hardy or Punk?

The Punk announcement is still up. They love promoting these things early as they seem to think it encourages people to watch. Did it with Khali winning the title after Edge had to vacate it, did it with Angle winning it last year, and I'm pretty sure they've done it many more times otherwise...

Ah you're right. Forgot about that.

As for the wwe.com thing, I thought they got mad at the spoilers and all the real stuff being put on there (like HHH and Steph having a kid). I don't check the site ever. Only read it was removed from news sites. It was wrong then.

A meeting was held with talent at the Smackdown/ECW taping yesterday afternoon. Details are below.

- Stephanie McMahon said 13 wrestlers have been suspended for buying drugs from online pharmacies and two others have been suspended for drug screening failures. WWE has only confirmed 11 suspensions publicly. This means that either Stephanie said the wrong number or four others have been suspended. That means a total of 15 wrestlers could be suspended, plus the firing of Mike Bucci.

- Stephanie also told the wrestlers that Vince McMahon was looking forward to the upcoming Congressional hearings on pro-wrestling, saying that he was thinking of wearing a clown wig and shoes to make a point about the entire process.

- Batista spoke up at the meeting, saying the reports that named him as a customer of Signature Pharmacy were false and that he has never received anything from online pharmacies. He asked Stephanie what he could do legally about that and she told him that he needs to discuss that with his personal attorneys. Batista was apparently very upset about his name being in the reports, standing by his statement that he has never purchased drugs from online pharmacies.

- At the end of the meeting, Triple H gave a speech to try and raise morale. He told the wrestlers that they may feel like they are in a horrible business right now, but to remember that they have the greatest job in the world and a job they have all dreamed of doing. He said he was proud to be a pro-wrestler and that it is important that all the boys stick together and work through this tough time for the pro-wrestling industry.

In other news, its pretty obvious H has been on roids before. when he first came to wwe, he was smaller than hbk, and now hes friggin huge. he got reallybig around the time he was doing all those stacker 2 commercials and crap.

and its not that he sucks as a wrestler, he is phenominal. But who is realistically going to challenge him, especially now that cena has squashed everyone. hell, ortons cred has been hurt by hitting the rko and cena kinking out of it.

Is Stacker 2 a steroid? I saw the commercials, but I never knew what it was.

It's a fat burning supplement. Ephedrine, caffeine, and aspirin. Not a steroid.

More Raw Spoilers!

Quote:

- William Regal comes out to announce he gave Randy Orton the night off because of his actions last week. They are showing Randy via "satellite." Regal announces Orton vs. Cena at Unforgiven for the WWE championship. Cena comes out and kisses his dog tags and attacks Regal. They send out three referees out to try to get Cena off .. Cena walks up the ramp and leaves Regal in a heap on the floor.

- They show Regal in an ambulance getting treated

- Vince and Coach have financial advisors and they are talking about Vince's money and how the family can't touch him. He then asks Coach how Regal is doing. Coach says "pretty beat up" and Vince replies with "well Coach, I guess its time for you to step up again."
