Backstage Reaction to Jeff Hardy's Situation Posted by Steve Carrier on 03/14/2011 at 08:04 PM
- As reported earlier, TNA Wrestling officials made the decision to send Jeff Hardy home from this week's iMPACT television tapings. Reports from last night's show were that Hardy was in no condition to perform and management decided to cut his match with Sting short.
Unlike the last time there was a question about Hardy's condition (prior to the Final Resolution pay-per-view in December, company officials were going to strip Hardy of the World Heavyweight Championship due to his condition backstage at the event, but then changed their minds) no one within the company has attempted to defend him. Many company employees are very upset about the situation, especially with the decision to allow Hardy to go out in front of the audience considering he stumbled on the ramp and nearly tripped over the ring steps. Others were surprised that an audible wasn't called to "make it up" to the audience.
While Hardy has been sent home from this week's iMPACT tapings, no further decision has been made regarding his future in the organization.
Hardy tweeted last night that "things are op." His next court date in Moore County, North Carolina is scheduled for Wednesday.
The Great Khali def. WWE Champion The Miz by Disqualification Sheamus def. U.S. Champion Daniel Bryan Randy Orton def. Mason Ryan Vickie Guerrero def. Trish Stratus in a No Disqualification Match John Cena def. Alberto Del Rio by Disqualification
ST. LOUIS, Mo. Although St. Louis lies some 900 miles from Seaside Heights, with Jersey Shores Nicole Snooki Polizzi acting as celebrity guest star, there was bound to be some explosive grenades, painful fist pumps and even a couple of cheap shots.
John Cena def. Alberto Del Rio by Disqualification (WATCH | PHOTOS) For the first time ever, John Cena, the No. 1 contender for the WWE Championship, faced off against Alberto Del Rio, the No. 1 contender for the World Heavyweight Championship. As the two men squared off, Del Rios former NXT Rookie, Brodus Clay watched from the Mexican elitists corner until the proceedings were interrupted by The Rock. Or at least what looked like The Rock. In actuality, it was WWE Champion The Miz dressed as The Brahma Bull.
The shenanigans distracted Cena, who quickly fell under the attack of Del Rio and Clay. With the Cenation Commander-in-Chief down, Miz joined in the beatdown, eventually leaving Cena a lifeless heap on the arena floor.
Vickie Guerrero def. Trish Stratus in a No Disqualification Match; Six-Person Tag Team Match announced for WrestleMania (WATCH: PART 1 | PART 2 | PHOTOS) Vickie Grenade Guerrero is blowin up! The former SmackDown Official Consultant competed against legendary Diva Trish Stratus in a No Disqualification Match for her chance to be hired to Raw with her boyfriend Dolph Ziggler. And with some underhanded assistance from Lay-Cool, she actually pulled it off.
Guerrero celebrated as Raws celebrity guest star, Snooki from Jersey Shore, looked on. Before Vickie and Lay-Cool could further pummel Trish, Snooki slid into the ring and attacked Layla. Thats when John Morrison and Dolph Ziggler charged the ring. Before tempers could boil over further, Guerrero issued a challenge and the Jersey Shore star accepted. At WrestleMania, Snooki, Trish Stratus & John Morrison will take on Layla, Michelle McCool & Dolph Ziggler in a Six-Person Tag Team Match!
Drew Carey announced as a member of the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2011 (WATCH) Drew Carey, come on down! The host of The Price is Right and entrant in 2001's Royal Rumble joins Shawn Michaels, "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan, "Bullet" Bob Armstrong and Sunny as an inductee in the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2011.
Randy Orton def. Mason Ryan (WATCH | PHOTOS) Three up, three down. First, there was Michael McGillicutty. Next up, David Otunga. And now, a third New Nexus disciple, Mason Ryan, has taken his place at the end of The Vipers boot. Orton managed to defeat all three men in three weeks. And in doing so, he prevented all of them from being in CM Punks corner during his WrestleMania bout against Orton. Not only that, after each of his three respective victories, The Viper punted each man in the skull, in direct defiance of The Second City Savior.
Michael Cole surprised Jerry The King Lawler with a special guest (WATCH | PHOTOS) Have you no shame, Michael Cole? In a repulsive effort to discredit his WrestleMania opponent, Jerry The King Lawler, the Raw announcer brought out Lawlers son, Brian Christopher, to confront him. A former WWE Superstar, Christopher (also known as Grandmaster Sexay) accused his father of being absent from his life growing up and proclaimed that he was the bigger Superstar of the two.
Coming to Lawlers defense was his former announce partner, Jim Ross. As Good Ol J.R. ratcheted up the rhetoric, Cole's trainer, Jack Swagger, attacked. He then slapped an ankle lock on the WWE Hall of Famer before relenting and imploring Cole to slap an ankle lock on Ross himself.
Sheamus def. U.S. Champion Daniel Bryan (WATCH | PHOTOS) Less than a week before St. Patricks Day and the Irishmans luck has taken a turn. After weeks of frustrating losses, Sheamus vowed to win the U.S. Title this week or he would quit WWE. Surviving an arduous match against U.S. Champion Daniel Bryan, The Celtic Warrior prevailed to log his first win in weeks and bring the U.S. Title to Ireland.
The Great Khali def. WWE Champion The Miz by Disqualification (WATCH | PHOTOS) Perhaps knowing that he faced too tall a task, WWE Champion The Miz seized an opportunity against The Great Khali. During their bout, Mizs fired assistant, Alex Riley, entered the ring and attacked The Punjabi Nightmare. The distraction allowed Miz to grab a steel chair, which he used to pummel Khali. Even after it was clear that Khali was incapacitated, Miz continued his attack, demonstrating an unseen level of viciousness.
Raw GM arranged two matches (PHOTOS) WWE Champion The Miz couldnt help himself. The arrogant Superstar ranted and ranted about how much more awesome he is than John Cena, Dwayne The Rock Johnson and anyone else on the Raw roster. Fate would intervene when Raws anonymous General Manager arranged two first-time ever matches. The first will pit No. 1 contender for the WWE Title, John Cena, against the No. 1 contender for the World Heavyweight Title, Alberto Del Rio. The second contest forces The Cleveland Screamer himself to face The Great Khali.
Dwayne The Rock Johnson addressed John Cena and WWE Champion The Miz (WATCH) After taking several shots across the bow courtesy of John Cena and WWE Champion The Miz, Dwayne The Rock Johnson replied with a few shots of his own. The Great One belittled the two WrestleMania rivals, first cracking on Cenas maturity and then threatening to layeth the SmackDown on Miz.
"Hurricane" Helms involved in bar incident Posted by Dave Mitchell on 03/14/2011 at 04:27 PM
Former WWE star Gregory "Hurricane" Helms was reportedly arrested once again over the weekend, according to North Carolina's WTSB Radio.
Helms was involved in a bar fight on Sunday night and was charged with "simple affray" following an altercation at a bar called "The Rehab".
According to the police report, the other person in the fight reportedly touched Helms' girlfriend which led to the confrontation. Lt. Both men were released at the scene but were ordered to appear in court on April 28 to answer to the charges.
In May 2008, Helms was charged with assault following an alleged incident at another Smithfield club. Those charges were dismissed in July 2008.
Helms responded to the reports on Twitter denying that he was actually arrested: "Can't let Jeff have all the heat! LOL But I didn't get arrested at all. Got a citation for defending my woman. No regrets, no apologies."
- Sheamus declared at this weekend's OKC live event that his "King" persona is dead and long lives The Celtic Warrior. Sheamus cut a promo before his match with Yoshi Tatsu and said ever since he won King of the Ring, he has been on the biggest losing streak of his career.

Undertaker's Health Posted by Steve Carrier on 03/11/2011 at 08:06 PM
- The Undertaker is still rehabilitating his torn rotator cuff after it was surgically repaired late last year. He's been working aggressively to rehab the injury in hopes that he won't be severely limited for his match against Triple H at WrestleMania XXVII. The damage from his latest injury was bad enough that it is expected to confine his mobility in the long-term.
While there has been much speculation that his in-ring career is coming to an end, multiple WWE sources believe that he could at least appear at WrestleMania events for years to come as long as he keeps himself in shape, is able to perform his signature maneuvers, and can work around his physical limitations.
- Stan sent word that there was 21 minutes and 18 seconds of in-ring action on this week's iMPACT, up from 19 minutes and 4 seconds on last week's show.
As noted earlier here on the website, TNA iMPACT! earned a 1.3 cable rating a .94 (0.9) M18-49, a .76 (0. in M18-34, and an average audience of 1.7 million viewers (1,738,000). This is slightly down from last week's 1.36 (1.4) cable rating, with 1.8 million viewers. Competitive Ranking -Among Basic Cable Networks between 9p-11p, TNA ranked #3 among M18-49, behind TNT (NBA) and MTV (Jersey Shore().
