Former WWE Superstar Chris Masters joined Chris & Nick Live on vow live, discussing his recent release from WWE and what may be next for him. In the interview, he spoke about the possibility of going to TNA:
Quote
I was already thinking to myself, maybe I need to start reaching out and seeing what else is out there lets just be frank. But I didnt do it. And its funny because then you fast forward to weeks later and then this happened. Obviously, Im taking bookings, but yeah, Ive reached out to some people over at TNA and well just see what happens with that. Theres of course the 90 day thing with WWE, but Im not really going to rule out anything this time around.
The 2000 Nitro edition of Spring Break-out! From the south coast of Texas on the 27th March. This is the last ever Nitro of the NWO in WCW, as the scene is set for the return of Eric Bischoff and Vince Russo, in the start of the New Blood Series. Mean Gene Interviews DDP, Mike Modest vs. The Artist, Booker vs. Big Ron Harris, Mean Gene Interviews Hulk Hogan, Jung Dragons vs. The Mamalukes and Disco Inferno, Team Package vs. The Brothers In Paint - Texas Tornado Tag, Meng vs. La Parka, Hugh Morrus vs. Terry Funk, New World Order vs. Curt Hennig and Buff Bagwell, The Wall vs. Hulk Hogan.
Matt Striker starts the show in front of a table and a bowl of eggs with three spoons. He announced that there will be an egg relay contest. Darren Young cuts him off and says that he wasn't here to play an egg relay contest. Striker ignores his outburst and continues to carry on the introductions, until Young cuts him off again and says that he can't cut it in the ring.
Striker simply replied that he's happy doing what he's doing right now, and that Young shouldn't worry on his past, instead to worry on his own future. After that verbatim, Young clocks Striker in the face, and leaves after challenging him to a match.
Backstage, Tyson Kidd was asked to comment about facing Justin Gabriel. Kidd then went on to saying that he was the greatest graduate of the Hart Dungeon, and that he was better than all the legends that came before him out of the esteemed Dungeon. He then concluded by saying that he would show Gabriel why he's the best tonight.
Justin Gabriel versus Tyson Kidd: Very strong match, very good opener. Lots of back-and-forth action, with the added caveat that both Kidd and Gabriel elevated their game to new heights. After a 15-minute match that saw both kidd and Gabriel throw everything but the kitchen sink, Gabriel hits an STO, followed by his signature 450 Splash for the win.
Darren Young versus Matt Striker: This match was disatrous, for the simple fact that it demonstrated how out-of-shape Matt Striker is against Darren Young. After bleeding from the nose, he hits a Gory Bomb. That was the only highlight he made in the match, as it turns out to be not enough. Young scores a neckbreaker off the apron, an overhead belly-to-belly suplex which led to Striker bleeding, and scored a win by hitting his modified full nelson facebuster.
Daniel Bryan, current SmackDown Money in the Bank winner, encounters his protege, Derrick Bateman... playing a WWE video game. This led to some stern lecturing from Bryan to Bateman, telling him that Bateman's making a fool of himself. He ended his speech by saying that if Bateman didn't figure out who he is, that he's on his own.
Titus O'Neil (with Hornswoggle and AJ) versus Derrick Bateman: Even though Bateman got that stern talking from Bryan, it did him no good in a match that generally stunk. Bateman's only offense consisted of a dropkick and a failed sunset flip attempt that gave O'Neil the opportunity to roll him up for the win. Bateman then attacks O'Neil after the match. He chased after Hornswoggle, with AJ watching on. Hornswoggle escapes Bateman, which led to O'Neil catching Bateman with his Clash of the Titus spinebuster. The assault on Bateman ended with Hornswoggle scoring a tadpole splash. The show ends with AJ, Hornswoggle and O'Neil smiling in the ring.
- Triple H is serious on introducing new talents through vignettes and promos. Its also being said that Triple H is interested in reviving the WWE Tag Team division. Word is that they are really starting to recruit tag teams and see if some names are under contract to other promotions.
There has been talk internally about The Brisco Brothers but they are signed to Ring of Honor. There has also been a lot of talk about TNAs Beer Money and bringing them in once they are able to get away from TNA.
Regarding the Kings of Wrestling Chris Hero & Claudio Castagnoli coming, the talk is that they will indeed be brought in together as a tag team and not singles wrestlers.
- A fan wrote to Gail Kim on Twitter and said he thought WWE signed her just to bury the competition after her great run in TNA. Gail responded: "but according 2 them (WWE), there is no competition. And if so,then why care about what happens to talent they don't use or want anyway?"
Gail also wrote that she likes Triple H but that "Vince McMahon is still in charge."

Credit to PWTorch.com for this live report of what happened after RAW went off the air:
After Raw went off the air, Triple H took the mic and Cena and Punk went at it. They didn't announce if it was a title match, but the ref held up both belts to start.
WWE champion John Cena vs. WWE champion C.M. Punk ended in a Double DQ when Truth and Miz ran in. Cena and Miz used the Attitude Adjustment and GTS to send them packing. The two champions stared each other down in the ring and raised their belts. Cena exited, staring Punk down from the ramp. Punk left the ring and the night ended.

Raw results: Hostile negotiations By: Ryan Murphy August 8, 2011 Tags: Raw: August 8, 2011 SAN JOSE With only six days to go before WWE Champion John Cena faces WWE Champion CM Punk for the Undisputed WWE Championship at SummerSlam, Triple H made it clear that there will be only one titleholder at the end of the night. The lengths WWEs new COO went to tonight in order to guarantee a fair outcome shocked the entire WWE Universe.
WWE Champion John Cena and WWE Champion CM Punk signed the contract for their Undisputed WWE Title Match (WATCH | PHOTOS) The WWE Universe expected a tense confrontation in this contract signing and thats exactly what they got. Mediated by Triple H and WWE Executive Vice President of Talent Relations John Laurinaitis, the summit started off ugly when CM Punk showed a video of The Rock bashing John Cena on Facebook. Tearing The Champs catchphrases and clothing to shreds, The Great One made a hilarious mockery of the powerful Superstar.
It was a damning monologue, but one Cena took in stride. After all, The Champ realized some people may have a problem with him, but hes always been more concerned with the fans that are in his corner. Since 2002, the WWE Champion has been a proud and hardworking Superstar who gives every bit of his energy to positively representing the company. And while Cena was busting his hump, Punk was off complaining that he didnt get fair treatment.
It was a strong argument that Triple H respected, but The Second City Saint was quick to strike back. Accusing The Champ of being a failed bodybuilder who settled for a career as a sports-entertainer, Punk claimed that he worked harder to get to where he is than Cena ever could. On Sunday, The Straight Edge Superstar would prove this by beating his rival in the center of the ring.
Undeterred, Cena made it clear that if Punk fails on Sunday hell be nothing more than a one hit wonder. With tensions now at a boil, both Superstars agreed that the talking had gone on long enough and stood face-to-face. But when Punk took a swing at The Champ, he connected with Mr. Laurinaitis instead. It was a melee from there with Punk and Cena brawling in the ring while the COO attempted to pull them apart.
When The Game finally got some order, the tattooed titleholder stood on the outside of the ring looking in at Triple H and The Champ. In that unique moment, there were two WWE Champions. Come Sunday, there will be only one.
R-Truth def. John Morrison (WATCH | PHOTOS) After spending more than three months on the sidelines with a serious neck injury, John Morrison finally had the opportunity to go one-on-one with the man who put him there R-Truth.
Looking to get a receipt on the dangerous Superstar, The Guru of Greatness came at Truth with a flurry of unpredictable offense even leaping out of the ring onto his opponent. It was a thrilling effort from Morrison, but JoMo is clearly still trying to find his feet following his injury. By targeting the neck, Truth was able to debilitate his adversary and win the bout.
Alex Riley def. United States Champion Dolph Ziggler by Disqualification (WATCH | PHOTOS) Some guys just dont know how to take criticism. Furious with Alex Rileys suggestion that he drop Vickie Guerrero and succeed on his own merit, Dolph Ziggler was ready to make A-Ry regret his remarks tonight. Bringing the fight to Riley, the brash Superstar seemed destined for victory, but Vickie interfered in the action before either man could triumph.
The loudmouths intrusion led to the official giving Riley the win via disqualification. Clearly irritated with the loss, Ziggler bickered with his associate after the bout before the cougar stormed away from the ring in a rage.
Beth Phoenix def. Eve (WATCH | PHOTOS) Last Monday night, Beth Phoenix shocked the WWE Universe when she brutalized Divas Champion Kelly Kelly after winning a battle royal to become the No. 1 contender to the beautys title. Tonight, she made it clear that the attack was no accident.
After smashing the talented Eve, The Glamazon grabbed the microphone and again stated that the era of pretty Divas dominating WWE is over. Yet, just as Beth made her way to the locker room, she was cracked out of nowhere by a fiery Kelly Kelly.
Not one to be intimidated, the gorgeous competitor is definitely ready for Sundays showdown with the powerful Glamazon.
WWE Champion CM Punk def. Alberto Del Rio (WATCH | PHOTOS) Irate, but unsurprised by Triple Hs announcement earlier in the evening, CM Punk stated that the COO would be wise to stay out of his way at SummerSlam. But, for now, The Straight Edge Superstar was focused on an immediate challenge Alberto Del Rio.
Following Cenas victory over Swagger, Punk knew he had to come up big in his match against The Mexican Aristocrat. After all, how would it look if the controversial competitor was beaten mere days before the biggest bout of his career? Rising to the occasion, Punk was vicious against the Money in the Bank winner, picking Del Rio apart with blistering strikes before putting him to bed with the Go To Sleep. If Cena sent Punk a message before, the voice of the voiceless responded here.
The Miz def. Kofi Kingston (WATCH | PHOTOS) What was supposed to be a rematch between Rey Mysterio and The Miz quickly spiraled out of control when The Awesome One brutally attacked his rival before Mysterio even had a chance to enter the ring. (WATCH) It was an audacious assault, but The Miz didnt have much time to gloat as Triple H immediately sent word that the smug Superstar would now face Kofi Kingston.
Before The Cleveland Screamer could protest, The Dreadlocked Dynamo launched himself at his opponent, battering The Miz with his patented controlled frenzy. The rapid attack was nearly too much for the former WWE Champion to handle, but the devious Superstar survived, nailing the Skull-Crushing Finale out of nowhere for the win.
WWE Champion John Cena def. Jack Swagger (WATCH | PHOTOS) John Cena isnt the type of competitor who cracks under pressure. Moments after trading strong words with the special guest referee in his Undisputed WWE Championship Match against CM Punk at SummerSlam, The Champ had to lock up with the always dangerous Jack Swagger.
A standout collegiate wrestler and former World Heavyweight Champion, The All-American American is not a Superstar to be taken lightly, but Cena didnt let his opponents pedigree intimidate him. Battering the big man before putting him down with an Attitude Adjustment, the West Newbury, Mass.-native sent a clear message to both Punk and Triple H The Champ is here.
Triple H announced a special guest referee for the SummerSlam main event (WATCH | PHOTOS) With only six days to go before one of the most important nights in WWE history, Triple H dropped another bomb on the WWE Universe the Undisputed WWE Championship Match between WWE Champion John Cena and WWE Champion CM Punk will have a special guest referee.
Believing that a bout of this magnitude is too important to risk outside interference or underhanded maneuvers, WWEs Chief Operating Officer revealed that hes enlisted the help of the one man he knows who can get the job done right himself.
As if that wasnt enough to stir up the WWE Universe, Triple H then announced that Cena and Punk will sign their SummerSlam contract tonight.
Former TNA knockout Gail Kim has caused quite a stir recently with her resignation from the WWE. Now she gives a bit more insight on the current situation of her release on her Official Twitter Page:
Quote
I quit last Monday. And apparently after a total of five years of working for a company where I was not utilized or appreciated, I am now, for some reason, valuable enough to keep me under the remainder of my contract so I can't worse elsewhere. Controlling?
Pro Wrestling Syndicate would like to congratulate its NY State Champion The Premiere Athlete Tony Nese on signing a deal with TNA Wrestling.
Nese will still be in action for PWS on Saturday August 20th at Center Island Sports on 101 Union Ave in Ronkonkoma NY (Long Island) as he defends his NY State Title in a 4 Way Match against Amazing Red, Azrieal, and Brian XL.
