PWInsider.com is reporting that TNA star Kurt Angle was arrested this morning. Here is what they have reported about the incident:
"TNA champion Kurt Angle was arrested this morning after a female TNA star he was involved in, who had an active order of protection against him spotted Angle following her while she was at a Starbucks this morning.
According to a source at the Robsinson Township, PA police department, Angle was pulled over after the woman he allegedly stalked called police. The TNA champion was found carrying 'a capped syringe and two vials of Human Growth Hormone Hygetropin' in his car. Angle claimed he had a valid prescription for the HGH.
Angle has been charged with driving with a suspended license (stemming from his refusal to take a breathalyzer test during his DUI arrest last year, which is an automatic suspension), illegal possession of the HGH), breaking an order of protection and harassment."
As reported here yesterday, Taz has replaced Don West as the color commentator of TNA Wrestling. The change took place at Monday night's television tapings, as Taz called this week's iMPACT! taping along side Mike Tenay.
Taz posted a couple of comments on his Twitter page regarding his new position: "I am already LOVING my new role in TNA," Taz wrote. "I had a blast with Mike (Tenay) also. TNA will sound different starting Thursday."
Taz also addressed Don West, who he is replacing on air. "I'm also happy Don is TNA still. It shows the type of front office we have. Dude has been there for seven years. You don't just can him - promote him."
While Don West will no longer be calling the action from ringside, several sources have confirmed that he received a promotion in TNA's merchandising division and is not being let go.
United States Champion Kofi Kingston def. Carlito The Miz def. Evan Bourne Divas Champion Mickie James def. Gail Kim MVP def. Jack Swagger by disqualification Hornswoggle def. Chavo Guerrero (Falls Count Anywhere Match) WWE Champion Randy Orton & John Cena def. Unified Tag Team Champions Chris Jericho & Big Show
ST. LOUIS - Temperatures are seriously scorching with just six days left until the hottest happening this side of WrestleMania. Thats right, were talkin SummerSlam. In the run-up to the boiling brawl, Raw celebrity guest host Freddie Prinze Jr., turned up the oven and ripped off the knob.
WWE Champion Randy Orton & John Cena def. Unified Tag Team Champions Chris Jericho & Big Show (PHOTOS | WATCH) The summer humidity outside may have hung heavy in the Missouri air, but the tension inside was almost thick enough to choke on. As Unified Tag Team Champions Chris Jericho & Big Show sized up their opponents, WWE Champion Randy Orton & John Cena, The Viper and Cena were busy sizing up each other. And who could blame them?
Although Cena and Orton harbored obvious distrust, the WWE Universe voiced their opinion on WWE e-Vote, affirming that they felt the two would still manage to squeeze out a victory.
To add to the intrigue, Prinze Jr., bravely returned to establish the tag team bout as a Lumberjack Match with the ring surrounded by his handpicked Superstars, all with a suspicious eye on Orton.
Not only do Orton and Cena have a laundry list of complaints about one another, theyre set to square off in six days at SummerSlam. With a weary eye on their partner, both Orton and Cena tried to fend off the sizable challenge of their tag team tormentors. In the end, it was Cena who captured the victory for his team by pinning Jericho. True to form, however, The Viper RKO'd his partner to show his gratitude. As if to prove his mettle, Cena not only rebounded, he also tossed both Jericho and Big Show out of the ring.
Floyd Money Mayweather to host next weeks Raw (WATCH) The WWE Universe will remember Floyd Money Mayweather as the man who bloodied Big Shows nose and defeated The Worlds Largest Athlete at WrestleMania XXIV. Now theyll also know him as Raws celebrity guest host one day after SummerSlam. Tune in Monday night to watch the boxing great take control.
Hornswoggle def. Chavo Guerrero (PHOTOS | WATCH) Oh, Chavo. Losing to a 4-foot-4-inch leprechaun seems to be taking its toll. This week, Guerrero found himself facing Hornswoggle, this time in a Falls Count Anywhere Match. The sly Swoggle fled the ring early, heading toward the locker room area of the Scottrade Center. With Chavo in pursuit, Hornswoggle locked himself in a room. When Chavo finally opened the door, a can of paint swung down, knocking him unconscious, enabling Hornswoggle to score the victory. When he finally came to, he discovered that Swoggle wasnt to blame. Actually, the culprit appeared to be Prinzes pal, Macaulay Culkin!
MVP def. Jack Swagger by disqualification (PHOTOS | WATCH) Montel Vontavious Porter; the name alone seems like a lot to handle. And now Jack Swagger finds himself forced to handle more than just a name. After weeks of trading barbs, last week The All-American American underhandedly attacked MVP after his match against Chris Masters. This week, however, The Franchise Playa came prepared. MVP put in a solid effort against Swagger until the arrogant American refused to yield to the referee after displaying relentless aggression to get disqualified.
Divas Champion Mickie James def. Gail Kim (PHOTOS) Having teamed with Divas Champion Mickie James just two weeks prior, Gail Kim found herself facing down the sporty stunner for the title. While Kims efforts were impressive as usual, Mickie proved too powerful for the No. 1 contender and emerged with her title intact.
DX returned to Raw; The Legacy attacked (PHOTOS | WATCH) After months of seclusion, Shawn Michaels finally made his climactic return to D-Generation X and Monday Night Raw, much to the thrill of the WWE Universe. Any celebration, however, would prove short-lived. As Michaels and partner Triple H addressed the crowd, their SummerSlam opponents, The Legacy, attacked DX from behind. Then it was Cody Rhodes & Ted DiBiases turn at the microphone. They informed the stunned crowd that yes, they ARE ready.
The Miz def. Evan Bourne (PHOTOS | WATCH) The Miz swears up and down that hes, well, awesome! And now, hes out to prove it. After getting banned from Raw two weeks ago, the self-important Superstar earned his way back on the program by defeating Eugene in a WWE Contract-on-a-Pole Match. Now, he claims he will become United States Champion and started by facing off against Evan Bourne. Despite the unpredictable nature of Air Bourne, Miz grounded the high-flyer for the victory.
United States Champion Kofi Kingston def. Carlito (PHOTOS | WATCH) Before succumbing to Randy Ortons rage, Raw celebrity guest host Freddie Prinze Jr., arranged for United States Champion Kofi Kingston to defend his title against Carlito. The Caribbean quarrel pitted the jumping Jamaican against a Superstar who lately has shown little respect for anything or anyone, even his brother. A crowd favorite, Kingston managed to overcome the Boriqua Brother to avoid any trouble in paradise.
Raw celebrity guest host Freddie Prinze Jr., refused WWE Champion Randy Ortons demand, suffered attack (PHOTOS | WATCH) As the star of such movies as I Know What You Did Last Summer and Shes All That as well as the upcoming season of Foxs 24, Prinze greeted the enthusiastic crowd in the Scottrade Center and fielded an impromptu acting audition from Santino Marella before being confronted by WWE Champion Randy Orton. The Viper appeared more than a little ticked at the prospect of having to pair with SummerSlam opponent John Cena against Unified Tag Team Champions Chris Jericho & Big Show and not the least bit shy about letting Prinze Jr. know it.
The actor and lifelong WWE fan, however, refused to back down, which seemed only to provoke the erratic Orton and prompted an attack that left Prinze Jr., immobile on the canvas. The actor was subsequently taken to a local medical facility for observation.
As noted earlier, Total Nonstop Action Wrestling has decided to let Don West go as an announcer. This week's television tapings will be his last broadcasts for the company. Mike Tenay and Taz will be the announcing team going forward.
Since 2002, West has worked for TNA, providing color commentary alongside Tenay during episodes of Impact and pay-per-views.
I'm told that West will remain with the company and received a promotion in the merchandising department.
Former WWE Diva Kristal Marshall (Lashley's girlfriend) wrote on her Twitter account on Tuesday that she's going to "make a debut soon." Earlier, she also wrote: "Just got some super duper news today! Let's just say it's a page turner!" Marshall appears to have wrestling on her mind as we reported earlier that Vince McMahon has been incredibly frustrated as of late with WWE's inability to create new Superstars. Marshall apparently read the report as she wrote the following on her Twitter account: "Sorry Vince stars are born not created...."
- Daniels won the X-Division Steel Asylum Match - Abyss defeated Jethro Holliday - Hernandez defeated Big Rob of The British Invasion - IWGP Tag Title: The British Invasion defeated Beer Money, Inc - Knockouts Title: ODB and Cody Deaner won, defeating The Beautiful People - X Title: Samoa Joe won the title, defeating Homicide - Tag Tam Title: Scott Steiner & Booker T retained over Team 3D - Legends Title: Kevin Nash won the title, defeating Mick Foley - World Title: Kurt Angle retained over Sting and Matt Morgan
COMPLETE PAY-PER-VIEW RESULTS:
- In the most insane and daredevil Steel Asylum match thus far in TNA history, Daniels came out the winner to earn a shot at the X Division Championship. The match was highlighted by the debut of "The Pope" D'Angelo Dinero (who kept Suicide from winning the bout), as well as Daniels hanging upside down from the top of the cage! After Dinero took out Suicide, Daniels recovered and escaped to win it.
- Jethro Holliday took on Abyss in an attempt to claim Dr. Stevie's 50,000 bounty on Abyss. Dr. Stevie attempted to interfere on Holliday's behalf, but it only backfired. In the end, Dr. Stevie handed brass knuckles to Holliday, but Abyss instead hit his Black Hole Slam finisher to get the win. After the match, Dr. Stevie was irate with Holliday and got in his face. In turn, Holliday knocked out Dr. Stevie!
- Hernandez gained a quick win over Big Rob of The British Invasion, using a shoulder block at the start of the match to surprise the UK muscleman! When Hernandez came out, he got on the microphone and told all of the British Invasion that they could hand him the briefcase, or he would take it by force. The Invasion attacked, but Hernandez fought them off. After getting the pin on Big Rob, Hernandez grabbed his World Title shot briefcase and exited the ring, while Brutus Magnus and Doug Williams held back an irate Big Rob!
- With World Elite leader Eric Young on commentary, The British Invasion defeated Beer Money, Inc. to retain the New Japan IWGP Tag Team Title. During the bout, Eric Young tossed one of the IWGP titles into the ring, which caught the attention of Robert Roode. Roode went after Young, but Eric spit on him. As the referee was removing the title from the ring, the Invasion hit Roode with a low blow and rolled him up for the pin!
- ODB and Cody Deaner got the win over Angelina Love and Velvet Sky to become the new Knockout Women's Champion! Madison Rayne accidentally cost Angelina the match (and the gold) when she went to hairspray Deaner but blinded her Beautiful People leader instead. Deaner scored the pin and ODB was awarded the title, but Deaner took it and left the ring while ODB gave chase! After the bout, The Beautiful People argued in the ring, with Love leaving in a fit of rage!
- Samoa Joe (with Taz) defeated Homicide to become the NEW TNA X Division Champion! Homicide hit Joe with everything he had, but in the end Joe forced Homicide to tap out to the rear naked chokehold! Samoa Joe has certainly re-focused on his submission skills, and now he once again dominates the TNA X Division as the reigning champion!
- In an all-out brawl for the TNA World Tag Team Title, Scott Steiner and Booker T retained the gold against Team 3D. The conclusion of the match was controversial, with two TNA referees (Earl Hebner and Slick Johnson) both registering pins for each team. After Hebner and Johnson reviewed the videotape, it was announced that Booker T and Scott Steiner were still the tag team champions, which the crowd didn't agree with!
- In a bloody and chaotic battle, Kevin Nash defeated Mick Foley to win the TNA Legends Championship! After a brawl between Nash and Foley, Mick brought a barbed wire bat into play, which brought out Traci Brooks to stop him. As Foley dealt with Brooks, Nash took his opportunity to deliver a big boot to Foley to get the win. After the bout, Abyss came out to save Foley from further damage by the new champ.
- In the main event for the TNA World Heavyweight Champion, Kurt Angle successfully retained the gold by beating Sting and Matt Morgan. Late in the bout, Sting had it won, but there was no referee. Morgan took his opportunity to capitalize - hitting his "Carbon Footprint" on Sting. However, Kurt Angle smashed Morgan with a steel chair, and covered him to get the pin and the win. Once again, Kurt Angle outsmarted Sting and Morgan to remain World Champion.
Dolph Ziggler def. Finlay CM Punk def. John Morrison Melina def. Layla Unified Tag Team Champion Big Show def. JTG Hart Dynasty def. World Heavyweight Champion Jeff Hardy (Handicap Match)
EDMONTON, Alberta, Canada Amidst an emotional firestorm of SummerSlam fueled destruction, two brothers appeared to find the path of reconciliation.
Hart Dynasty def. World Heavyweight Champion Jeff Hardy (Handicap Match) (VIDEO | PHOTOS) After his vicious attack on Jeff Hardy last week, CM Punk expounded on his own TLC attributes, insisting that he would prove victorious in the World Heavyweight Championship Match at SummerSlam (match preview). After the former champion promised to end Jeff Hardy, SmackDown General Manger Theodore Long stepped into the ring to refute Punk's claims that the injured Hardy may be too hurt to compete at the pay-per-view. The war-torn Charismatic Champion himself then slowly emerged to echo Longs statement, promising to defeat Punk in nine days time. (VIDEO | PHOTOS) Though it seemed Hardy would be out of action for the night, WWE Chairman Mr. McMahon soon dropped a bombshell by phone, ordering that, despite his injuries, the World Champion would have face The Hart Dynasty in a Handicap Match.
Though Hardy fought heroically, the 2-on-1 disadvantage proved too much for the injured champion, as he finally succumbed to the Dynastys Hart Attack. When The Straightedge Superstar emerged to execute a post-match onslaught on his SummerSlam opponent, John Morrison rushed down to Hardys defense. But the pair still found themselves outgunned once Punk incorporated the steel chair. Then, to the surprise and delight of the WWE Universe, Matt Hardy suddenly burst onto the scene. After working to clear the ring, the elder Hardy extended an arm to help his brother up, igniting an explosive roar from the ecstatic WWE Universe.
Back in his office, SmackDown General Manager Theodore Long made the monumental announcement to Mr. McMahon that next week on SmackDown, CM Punk & The Hart Dynasty will face John Morrison and Matt & Jeff Hardy.
CM Punk def. John Morrison (VIDEO | PHOTOS) The third time proved to be a charm for The Straightedge Superstar. After suffering two separate pinfalls at the hands of The Friday Night Delight in recent weeks, the No. 1 contender to the World Heavyweight Championship foiled Morrisons second attempt at Starship Pain and hit the GTS.
Ranjin Singh feels the terror of The Big Red Machine (VIDEO 1 | 2 | 3) Throughout the night, the WWE Universe stood witness as The Great Khalis kidnapped interpreter Ranjin Singh suffered the torment of The Big Red Monster from somewhere in the arena. Although Singh was made to say that he was being punished because of his association with The Great Khali, his most startling words came when he proclaimed that he is the actually the brother of The Punjabi Playboy. Khali finally found the completely tormented Singh, only to be attacked from behind by Kane with horrifying brutality.
Unified Tag Team Champion Big Show def. JTG (VIDEO | PHOTOS) Despite an incredible victory over Unified Tag Team Champion Chris Jericho last week, JTG could not climb to the heights of The Worlds Largest Athlete. Shortly after the Jericho delivered a cheap shot to Shad outside the ring, Big Show triumphed by submission with the excruciating Colossal Clutch. But as Big Show was exiting the ring, Shad delivered a shot of his own, sending the gigantic Superstar crashing to the ringside floor below. (SummerSlam Unified Tag Team Championship preview)
Dolph Ziggler def. Finlay (VIDEO | PHOTOS) The ultra-confident Ziggler reigned supreme over The Belfast Brawler, executing his vicious reverse bulldog after Mike Knox struck Finlay with the Shillelagh. After the bell, Knox continued his unrelenting assault, ending with a calculated backbreaker to Finlay onto the unforgiving steel steps. (SummerSlam Intercontinental Championship preview)
Melina def. Layla (VIDEO | PHOTOS) The fierce Melina continued to run wild throughout Friday night, utilizing pure primal emotion to put away Layla and send a strong message to Womens Champion Michelle McCool.
Matt Hardy posted the following blog on the WWE Universe website this morning:
There's much more to this story than you'll ever know.. for now. I know several people are doubting my sincerity, and some people are ecstatic that Jeff and I seem to be back on good terms. I know I have a lot of explaining and convincing to do in the very near future. And I will be happy to open up and tell everyone the "REAL" story behind our sibling rivalry. The last year of my life is movie-worthy. Buckle up and get ready for the ride, because as of yesterday, The Hardys are back in business!
It's being reported that TNA and SpikeTV are currently negotiating a new deal. One of the key items being dicussed in the negotiation is TNA receiving 1-2 more hours of original programming per week. A number of ideas have been talked about in the past for new TNA TV shows including an all Knockouts show, an all X-Division show, and also the possibility of making Spin Cycle a TV show as opposed to an internet show.
TNA Knockout Tara has posted a Tweet on her Twitter account noting that she does not remember the ending of her match this past week on Impact after taking a nasty fall and hitting her head on the cement floor outside of the ring. Tara wrote:
"Thank you for the concern. I don't remember the rest of the match after hitting the cement with my head. But it's not ballet & I won. YAY!!"
It was recently reported that TNA beat WWE in the ratings war last week, and this news prompted Jeremy Borash to comment on the situation by taking a small shot at WWE's "Did You Know?" blurbs on his Twitter account. Borash wrote:
"Did you know??? Once again in this week's ratings, TNA iMPACT! beat Raw, Smackdown, and ECW in the UK."
John Morrison def. David Hart Smith Goldust def. Sheamus Carlito & Rosa Mendes def. United States Champion Kofi Kingston & Divas Champion Mickie James
With WWE Superstars on WGN American emanating from Canada, things were certain to be big, and an explosive main event teaming the United States Champion Kofi Kingston & Divas Champion Mickie James against Carlito & Rosa Mendes definitely delivered. Add in a homecoming for Canada natives Natalya and David Hart Smith with the latter taking on John Morrison, and a heated battle between ECW Superstars Sheamus and Goldust, this may have been the most explosive edition of WWE Superstars to date.
Dont know where to catch WWE Superstars? Find WGN America in your area. Can't see WWE Superstars on WGN America in your area? Stay with WWE.com for full results, photos and video clips of all the action.
John Morrison def. David Hart Smith (PHOTOS | WATCH) Just 24-hours before facing CM Punk on SmackDown, The Friday Night Delight defeated the impressive David Hart Smith, which wasnt what Natalya wanted to see happen in Smiths homecoming match. At many times in the match, the Hart Dynasty member seemed just half a second from walking away the victor, but in the end, Morrison proved he wanted it more. After having already countered one Starship Pain, Smith fell to a second and the ensuing three-count did not please the Canadian fans in attendance.
Goldust def. Sheamus (PHOTOS | WATCH) It may seem that The Bizarre One used his experience to claim victory over The Celtic Warrior, but we think Sheamus would say otherwise. The saying goes that the Irish have bad luck if any luck at all, and after a match that seemed to be firmly in The Celtic Warriors grasp slipped away due to an inside cradle, theres no doubt that the native son of the Eire would agree. Goldust may have won this round, but we dont think things are over between these two by a long shot.
Carlito & Rosa Mendes def. United States Champion Kofi Kingston & Divas Champion Mickie James (PHOTOS | WATCH) In a huge upset, The Caribbean Superstar pinned the United States Champion giving him and Rosa Mendes the victory. A win over any champion is a big one, and even though things werent looking good for Carlito, he made the right move at the right time dodging one of Kingstons high-flying maneuvers and reversing it with a Backstabber. Oddly enough, The Jamaican Superstar and Mickie James werent the only ones to leave the ring with a sullen attitude. Despite securing victory for his team, The Caribbean Superstar retained the same bad attitude with which he initially entered the ring.
TNA Wrestling superstar Elijah Burke was recently interviewed by ForceofWrestling.com and spoke about a number of topics, including his amateur boxing background, how he came up with his finishing maneuver, his favorite match and more. Here's what Burke said about:
Rejecting a Spot in the Spirit Squad: "Yes, I turned it down. It was not forced upon me but an opportunity for me if I wanted it. I chose not to put myself or career into a situation for the 'Right Now Money' as I plan on being around for a while in this business," Burke told forceofwrestling.com in an interview. "I knew the Spirit Squad would get a lot of TV time and PPVs 'cause Vince said so; it was his idea. But at what cost? A year later, the stench of the SS killed (or hurt) all of their careers," Burke said. "Kudos to Dolph Ziggler for working his butt off."
Chris Benoit: "I remember talking to him, and he would tell me that he forgets a lot of things, and how he would like for me not to be afraid to communicate with him," Burke said. "He had a condition that I've witnessed older people deal with all the time, being that my mother's a nurse. And let me tell you, one minute they're telling you to help them, and the next minute they're screaming, 'Help, there's a stranger in my room.' So by Chris's brain being worse than an 80-year-old Alzheimer patient's, then who knows."
Burke says Chris Benoit saw potential in him and took him under his wing. "He had handpicked me to help elevate to the next level," Burke said. "He called me the day before they say the first 'incident' happened to check on me following my back injury when he crashed into my knees during our first and last televised match. Does that sound like a monster to you?"
Signing with TNA: "My signing with TNA was about timing and both sides being happy, plain and simple." When asked if we'll see him back in the ring soon & where, he said, "Well, I think we all know the answer to this question by now, dont we?."

Morgan says no one demands anything from him and he's not passing up the opportunity to become the TNA World Champion. He says he's walking into Hard Justice as the Blueprint, but walking out the new World Heavyweight champion.
"WWE has come to terms on the release of WWE Superstar Eugene as of August 14, 2009. We wish Eugene the best in all future endeavors," read a WWE.com statement.

Shelton Benjamin def. Zack Ryder Vladimir Kozlov def. local competitor Yoshi Tatsu def. Paul Burchill (Disqualification) Tyler Reks def. local competitor William Regal def. Tommy Dreamer
EDMONTON, Alberta, Canada ECW Champion Christian learned the future of his fate on Tuesday night in front of a crowd full of his Peeps. The new No. 1 Contender to Captain Charismas ECW Championship is none other than William Regal.
An announcement on The Abraham Washington Show (PHOTOS | WATCH) Two-time ECW Champion Christian was the special guest on The Abraham Washington Show Tuesday night. After Washington played clips from Christians Extreme Rules Title defense against Tommy Dreamer from last weeks ECW on Syfy, Christian assured Washington that while their match was grueling, he and the ECW Original are indeed still friends. Captain Charisma also said hes ready for every challenge coming his way.
I am ready to be the face of this brand. I am ready to be the man here in ECW, Christian claimed.
The bombastic talk show host was ready to deliver that next challenge to the ECW Champion, introducing the No. 1 Contender to the Extreme title, William Regal.
If you think what you did last week was Extreme, you havent seen anything yet, sunshine, Regal threatened Christian.
The Englishman continued his speech to Christian, claiming his countrymen are known for being barbaric, and if the ECW Champion didnt believe him, he should just watch what he had planned next for his friend, Tommy Dreamer.
William Regal def. Tommy Dreamer (PHOTOS | WATCH) After Washington announced Regal is the No. 1 Contender to the ECW Championship, The British Brawler faced off against Tommy Dreamer. Still ailing from the brutal Extreme Rules ECW Title Match he competed in the week before, Dreamer fell to the ruthless Regal, who focused on the ECW Originals wounded left arm. Even after his win, Regal continued his attack with the Regal Stretch on Dreamer, until ECW Champion Christian emerged to chase Regal from the ring and help his friend, Dreamer. But will 2008 King of the Ring winner Regal have what it takes to defeat ECW Champion Christian in the future?
Shelton Benjamin def. Zack Ryder (PHOTOS | WATCH) Last weeks Abraham Washington Show exploded into couch-flipping chaos when Zack Ryder and Shelton Benjamin argued about who was the more entertaining Superstar, and Ryder took a cheap shot at Benjamin. This week, Benjamin got retribution against the cocky, brash Long Islander when The Gold Standard hit Paydirt on Ryder for the victory. But is this the last the WWE Universe has seen of the rivalry between these two skilled ECW Superstars?
An attack on Gregory Helms (WATCH) Before his match against Yoshi Tatsu, Paul Burchill attacked Gregory Helms backstage, accusing him of being the Hurricane.
Why dont you run along and put your Underoos back on and let the grown ups speak? Burchill taunted, and then attacked Helms, knocking him to the ground.
Yoshi Tatsu def. Paul Burchill (Disqualification) (PHOTOS | WATCH) After an introduction by ECWs newest Divas, Nikki and Brie Bella, Yoshi Tatsu faced off against Paul Burchill. But Burchills devious sister, Katie Lea, interfered in the match, causing Tatsu to win by disqualification. After the match, Paul Burchill continued his assault on the Japanese Superstar until Hurricane appeared. The masked Superstar climbed to the top rope and leaped toward a stunned Burchill, as Tatsu looked on in shock. Now that Hurricane has returned to the Land of the Extreme, what will this mysterious Superstar do next?
Vladimir Kozlov def. local competitor (PHOTOS | WATCH) The Moscow Mauler inflicted his brutal form of punishment against another local competitor this week on ECW. After Kozlovs Iron Curtain descended upon his opponent to end the match, Ezekiel Jackson emerged and also attacked Kozlovs prey, prompting another staredown between Jackson and Kozlov. Not to be outdone in the game of one-upmanship, the Sambo master picked up the local competitor and hit him again with his finisher, and exited the ring without looking back. When will these two Superstars finally clash in the Land of the Extreme?
Tyler Reks def. local competitor (PHOTOS | WATCH) Tyler Reks, who arrived on ECW as part of the New Superstar Initiative, returned to action in the Land of the Extreme this week. The Laguna Beach, Calif., native has come to Tuesday nights to prove hes not just a laid back, surfer dude, and after his victory this week over a local competitor with a Springboard Missile Dropkick, hes proving that.
In a recent blog at the WWE Universe site, Tommy Dreamer confirms the injuries he sustained during his ECW title match with Christian at Night of Champions. "I did suffer an injury when Christian hit me with a crutch and the butterfly screw went right into my tricep(I will post the pictures soon) I can barely lift my arm and have a nice puncture wound. My knuckles,fingers,back, eye and head are all bruised bad. I truly was in one hell of a fight."
