Trent Barreta Layla def. Kelly Kelly Big Show & Kane def. WWE Tag Team Champions Justin Gabriel & Heath Slater (Disqualification) Jack Swagger def. Chris Masters Rey Mysterio def. Ted DiBiase Christian def. Alberto Del Rio (Steel Cage Match)
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Although Christian picked up a rewarding victory over arch-rival Alberto Del Rio in a Steel Cage Match, Del Rio gained significant WrestleMania momentum by stinging World Heavyweight Champion Edge with a painful Con-Chair-To.
Christian def. Alberto Del Rio in a Steel Cage Match (WATCH | PHOTOS) Ever since Alberto Del Rio put Christian out of commission, Captain Charisma has been out for retribution every chance he gets. A Steel Cage Match proved the ultimate opportunity. After a tooth-and-nail struggle from atop the cage, it was Christian whose feet hit the arena floor first, giving him sweet victory.
When the bitter fight continued outside the cage, Edge interrupted by driving Del Rios car into the arena. After threatening to damage Del Rios luxury auto with a steel chair, The Rated-R Superstar was attacked from behind by Brodus Clay. With the champion down, Clay smashed him with the same chair. Then, Del Rio blasted his WrestleMania opponent with a stinging Con-Chair-To.
Rey Mysterio def. Ted DiBiase (WATCH | PHOTOS) Rey Mysterio took care of business against Ted DiBiase with a 619-splash combo. Although Maryse accompanied DiBiase to the ring for the start of the match, she wasted no time making a quick exit after his loss.
Jack Swagger def. Chris Masters (WATCH | PHOTOS) Doing what he does best, Jack Swagger forced Chris Masters to tap out using his highly effective ankle lock. Afterward, Michael Cole joined his WrestleMania trainer for an ugly attack on Masters. While The All-American American stepped on Masters head, Cole used an ankle lock to add insult to injury.
Big Show & Kane def. WWE Tag Team Champions Justin Gabriel & Heath Slater by Disqualification (WATCH | PHOTOS) In typical Corre fashion, Wade Barrett and Ezekiel Jackson couldn't stay away from the action. Their involvement cost Gabriel & Slater the match. But the disqualification conveniently preserved their titles. In a familiar Corre 4-on-1 onslaught, the odds were too much to overcome even for two of WWEs largest Superstars. Kane was brutally assaulted with sections of the steel ring steps, while Big Show was sent crashing through the announce table.
Layla def. Kelly Kelly (WATCH | PHOTOS) A distraction from Michelle McCool provided the perfect opportunity for Layla to knock Kelly Kelly from the top rope. After crashing to the canvas, Kelly Kelly was easy pickings for Layla to get the pinfall.
Cody Rhodes def. Trent Barreta (WATCH | PHOTOS) Still bitter about his injured face, Cody Rhodes took out his frustration on Trent Barreta. Using the very mask he has been hiding behind, Rhodes viciously head butted Barreta for a quick win.
United States Champion Sheamus def. Intercontinental Champion Kofi Kingston in a Non-Title Match (WATCH | PHOTOS) United States Champion Sheamus chalked up his first victory as new champion with a vicious Brogue Kick to the head of Intercontinental Champion Kofi Kingston.
World Heavyweight Champion Edge def. Brodus Clay (WATCH | PHOTOS) Young upstart Brodus Clay continues to turn heads in WWE. In a match against World Heavyweight Champion Edge, Clay had a tremendous opportunity to shine, but came up short when The Rated-R Superstar blasted him with a Spear. After post-match mayhem involving Alberto Del Rio and Christian, SmackDown General Manager Theodore Long announced the Steel Cage main event.
Cena talks about wanting to wrestle The Rock Posted by Roscoe De Soto on 03/18/2011 at 06:53 PM
John Cena recently spoke to Anthony Castellano of Newsday.com about his thoughts on Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson returning to WWE television.
Cena stated, "The fact that he tried to pick a fight with the toughest guy in the place, that's kind of his style." Cena continued, "But you know me, I don't back down from anyone. I think it's going to make some good television."
On The Rock's presence at Wrestlemania, Cena said "He's supposed to host. That's all I know. When he came back on that first night he said he was back for good. I can only hope that's the truth because I would certainly like to have many, many matches with him."
Cena also commented on his feelings about a match against The Undertaker at a future Wrestlemania. "Nooooo, he just doesn't lose. That's not a profitable night for anyone," stated Cena.
WWE's Fatal 4-Way pay-per-view event has been renamed Capitol Punishment, according to the official website of Cineplex Odeon Theatres. The event takes place on June 19, 2011 at the Verizon Center in Washington, D.C.
The Rock changes his tune about retirement Posted by Roscoe De Soto on 03/18/2011 at 06:51 PM
Thanks to Leon Peters for the following:
I just got the new issue of WWE Magazine with The Rock on the cover. Inside is an interview with discussing his career and his return. The talk then moved to the possibility of him wrestling again.
Rock was asked about how much of his old ring outfits he still owns and he commented, "I still own it all. It's still with me in my house. It was never going away because I knew I would one day use it again."
He was then asked, "So does that mean you're coming back to fight as well?"
Rock responded,"Making movies is something that I love to do, and I know that it brings a lot of people joy, which in turn brings me and my soul great gratification. Being in the ring and entertaining the audience and kicking ass physically brings me and my soul great gratification as well. I can guarantee that I can always do both."
On Thursday's TNA Wrestling iMPACT on SpikeTV, the broadcast ended with the shocking actions by Bully Ray as he brutally injured "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles by powerbombing him off the entrance ramp!
AJ Styles was quickly immobilized by trainers and taken by ambulance to a local Orlando hospital for emergency treatment.

Eve, Natalya, Gail Kim & Tamina def. The Bellas, Melina & Alicia Fox (WATCH | PHOTOS) It was a good night to be a fan of the Divas as eight of Raws sexiest women squared off in an epic tag match. Leading a contingent of Monday nights most vicious females, Nikki & Brie Bella continued to display a mean streak that has shocked the WWE Universe. With help from Melina, the sisters focused their attack on Natalya, brutalizing the former Divas Champion to the point that she was ready to quit. But the Hart Dungeon-trained Diva persevered and made the tag to Eve who scored with a big moonsault to give her team the win.
Santino Marella & Vladimir Kozlov def. The Usos (WATCH | PHOTOS) Ever since their former ally, Tamina, jumped ship to side with Santino Marella, The Usos have had it out for the Italian Superstar and his tag team partner, Vladimir Kozlov. But as much as theyd like to take out the former WWE Tag Team Champions, Jimmy & Jey have failed to stop their rivals. The tag specialists continued to struggle tonight as they lost to Santino & Kozlov yet again. Displaying the same fighting spirit that earned him the nickname The Italian Stallion, Marella battled the twins almost singlehandedly before scoring the victory with his dreaded Cobra strike.
Tyler Reks def. JTG (WATCH | PHOTOS) Tyler Reks had a lot to prove tonight. Once the most feared competitor on WWE Superstars, The Dreadlocked Demolition Man recently suffered three crushing losses to the powerful Chris Masters. With his reputation as an indestructible force beginning to fade, Reks had to show the locker-room that hes still as destructive as ever. And he did just that at the expense of JTG. Although agile and talented, the Brooklyn Superstar was outgunned tonight against his bigger, more powerful opponent. The tormented Superstar smashed JTG before putting him away with a brutal Burning Hammer. adsensePay-Per-View Schedules
TNA Impact Taping Results (3/17) *Spoilers* Written by Tim Capture on Mar 14, 2011 - 8:37:10 PM
Dark Match:
* Douglas Williams vs. Jake Tarr. Tarr is a Team Taz graduate. Winner via Chaos Theory, Douglas Williams
TNA Impact (Airing Thursday on Spike TV):
* Impact starts with Sting in the ring with both the new and old TNA Championship belts. Sting also has a new red shirt. He says he has something to get off his chest before Hulk Hogan's show starts. He wants Hogan and Eric Bischoff to get out here and face him. Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff come to the ring. Sting gives the Hardy belt to Hogan and says this is theirs. Hogan tosses it out of the ring. Sting asks Hogan how he could do what he did to Jeff Hardy? Take a guy who was the brightest of the bright stars and turn him into the blackest of black. Hardy is a man who makes his own decision but it was the influence of Hogan and Bischoff that led him down that path. The path of needing more money and power. He can't do anything for Hardy now but he can help the others in TNA trying to make a name for themselves. Hogan says Sting is Mr. Johnny Come Lately. Blame him and EB for the embarrassment Hardy caused Immortal? Hardy was the one who is at fault here. Hardy couldn't stand in the shadow of the immortal Hulk Hogan. Everybody else in Immortal is doing great, brother. Sting needs to look out for himself. Hogan has main eventers all around the world wanting to jump on his back and join in with the tsunami taking over wrestling. Sting says if the phone is ringing off the hook, where are the people? All he ever sees is Hogan and Bischoff with some jokes behind them.
* Bully Ray's music hits and comes to the ring. He says he's been ringing Hogan's phone off the hook. He's been waiting for this his whole life. Hogan is the one who made this business what it is today. He says Sting is a co-star, a sidekick. Ray says Sting is selfish. This isn't about the boys in the back, this is about Sting trying to measure up to Hogan. Ray says it would be his honor to take out Sting for Immortal. He wants to prove himself and face Sting. Hogan says don't even worry about that. He gets cut off by Fortune's music. Fortune is in the ring. AJ Styles says there are four men in the ring that go by the name Fortune and they have Sting's back 100%. He asks Ray what he wanted since getting in the business? That's right, be a singles wrestler. Instead he had a partner that carried the load for 15 years. Without Devon there would be no tag titles, no success. Ray says he'd like to slap the smile off AJ's face. If it wasn't for Dixie Carter wiping his a-- he wouldn't be anywhere. Ray is a 23 time world tag champion so shut-up and let's get back to him. AJ slaps Ray in the face.
* Mr. Anderson's music hits and gets in the ring. Anderson immediately asks for his rematch. He gets in Hogan's face and wants to know where it is. Hogan says he really is an a--hole. Anderson says yes, he is an a--hole. Hogan says he had a top contenders shot and couldn't get the job done. Anderson says Rob Van Dam couldn't get it done either. Bischoff says how about a four-way for the #1 contenders match? Mr. Anderson vs. RVD vs. Bully Ray vs. AJ Styles. Anderson says they can't do that. Bischoff says he can and he did.
* Brooke Hogan is here. Hogan's wife is here too.
* Ink Inc. vs. Scott Steiner & Crimson. Winner via Red Alert from Crimson to Shannon Moore, Scott Steiner & Crimson. Moore threw Steiner's headgear at him after the match and Neal had to stop a brawl from erupting.
* Note from Richard: Up next was a segment TNA taped with D'Angelo Dinero "performing miracles."
* For the TNA Knockouts Championship, Alissa Flash vs. Madison Rayne w/Tara. Winner via Rayne Drop in under a minute, Madison Rayne. Mickie James runs out right away but Madison and Tara bail. James is sick of Rayne's ridiculous title bouts. If she's a fighting champ then come here and fight me. Madison asks James what she thinks gives her the right to demand title shot after title shot after title shot. She's out of chances and it's not worth her while. James asks what would make it worth her while? Madison wants Mickie's locks. After beating Mickie she wants to embarrass her and shave her head. Mickie agrees.
* Jeff and Karen Jarrett are now out. Jeff says the alpha male has something to say. Kurt Angle does not have one shred of honor or dignity left in him. As a good man he can no longer do this to Kurt. He offers up a truce to Kurt Angle. He will rise up and be the better man and put an end to the misery. They have to co-exist for the kids. Kurt, please come out and beg for forgiveness. Kurt comes out holding a big present. He walks with a smile and hands the box to Karen. Kurt says Jeff is right. He's a husband and father and they need to co-exist. Kurt brought a gift as a peace offering. Jeff asks Kurt if he's being sincere. Kurt says look at him, does he look insincere? Jeff opens the gift and it's a guitar with the American flag on it. USA chant starts. Jeff, Kurt and Karen raise their hands together to pose but Kurt grabs the guitar and smashes it on Jeff and busts him open hardway. Karen goes for a low blow but Kurt isn't affected. He goes in his pants and pulls out a cup. Jeff is bleeding profusely from the head in multiple places. Karen cowers in the corner and he tells her to "stay down." He says he's sick of this and will end her. He wants Jeff in a cage at Lockdown. Jeff shakes his head no. Kurt says if he doesn't get what he wants he will hunt them down and kill them. Angle leaves while Jeff bleeds.
* For the TNA World Television Championship, Gunner vs. Murphy vs. Rob Terry. Winner & new Television Champion via TKO to Murphy, Gunner. Eric Bischoff was on the ramp afterwards and gave Gunner some applause and a thumbs up.
* Hernandez & Sarita & Rosita vs. Matt Morgan & Angelina Love & Winter. Angelina had a new entrance video and music. It's a street fight but not announced as one. Winner via catatonic back breaker from Winter to Rosita, Morgan, Angelina and Winter. Really quick match. An unidentified Hispanic guy came out and helped Hernandez after the match. Morgan ran them off and then celebrated in the ring.
* For the #1 contendership to the TNA Championship, AJ Styles vs. Rob Van Dam vs. Bully Ray vs. Mr. Anderson. No winner. A chair was in the ring and Anderson gave RVD a back suplex. Earl Hebner counted three but both of their shoulders were down because they were knocked out. Ray and AJ fought all over after the match. They went to the announcers table and ended up on the stage. AJ went to Ray with a chair but Ric Flair hit AJ with a low blow. Ray grabbed AJ and gave him a sit out powerbomb off the stage through a table. Agents and referees rushed out to check on them. Both are out of it and woozy. Paramedics are out with a stretcher and are taking AJ to the hospital. Fortune is out checking on AJ. Ray got up and pushed some security guys around and left. Ray came back out and tried to get back at AJ. Agents held him back. He went to the other side of the stage and fell. It looks like Bully Ray hurt himself and might have pulled a quad or blown his knee out. Ray is still on the ground. He might just be waiting for the stretcher to go out so he can attack. AJ just finally got taken out. Ray got helped to the back. Ray might've been hurt or went to the back to attack AJ's stretcher.
RAW Breakdown: Sheamus & Bryan, JR's Return, More Posted by Steve Carrier on 03/17/2011 at 01:16 PM
- As noted before, the March 14th episode of WWE RAW did a 3.66 rating with 5.68 million viewers. This week's show was seen by 69% male viewers and in the Males 18-49 demographic, it was up from last week's show with Steve Austin, with a 3.49 rating.
In the segment breakdown, The Rock's segment with the fake John Cena opened the show with a 3.80 rating. The interview with The Miz and his match with The Great Khali lost 386,000 viewers, another decline for The Miz since being pushed as WWE Champion.
The Triple H video and backstage segment with Snooki, John Morrison, Vickie Guerrero and Dolph Ziggler lost 297,000 more viewers. Sheamus winning the United States Title from Daniel Bryan gained 226,000 viewers. On the previous show with Steve Austin, Sheamus and Daniel Bryan lost big time following Austin's return segment. The gain for this week's title match shows that probably any mid-card talent would have lost big following Austin's return.
The segment with Michael Cole, Jerry Lawler, Brian Christopher, Jim Ross and Jack Swagger gained 928,000 viewers and was RAW's peak rating this week with a 4.11 rating. Randy Orton vs. Mason Ryan lost 621,000 viewers which isn't good. The Drew Carey Hall of Fame announcement, promo from Michael Cole and segment with Snooki lost 301,000 viewers. The Trish Stratus vs. Vickie Guerrero match and post-match with Snooki, Layla, Michelle McCool, John Morrison and Dolph Ziggler gained 406,000 viewers to a 3.77 rating which is an above average increase for that period in the show.
The 15 minute overrun with the main event of Alberto Del Rio vs. John Cena and the attack from The Miz lost 270,000 viewers, falling to a 3.59 rating. Considering that Cena is a solid ratings draw, this can be seen as a negative sign for The Miz and/or Del Rio. The last 5 minutes of that 15 minute overrun did come back and gain 290,000 viewers. This could be attributed to people tuning into the USA Network for their next show because RAW usually isn't on at 11:15pm.
We reported earlier this week that Eric Bischoff recently received a promotion in TNA and is now the executive producer of TNA programming. Aside from overseeing the production of TNA programming, Bischoff also serves as the point-man between TNA Wrestling and Spike TV.
In another sign that the Bischoff-Hogan regime is on solid ground in TNA, Hulk Hogan is now claiming that he took control of TNAs creative process three weeks ago.
Hogan had an online exchange this week with former WWE superstar Kizarny, who was asking Hogan why he never got a job opportunity in TNA. Hogan responded:
"@SiNNbODHi just took over creative 3weeks ago,shoot. Now I understand why nobody is using you HH"

Jeff Hardy Court Update: Results Of Latest Hearing Posted by Dave Mitchell on 03/16/2011 at 12:15 PM
TNA star Jeff Hardy was scheduled to appear in a Moore County, North Carolina court on Wednesday morning, but once again, the case was continued to a later date.
This time, the reason for the continuance was that the district attorney's office is still waiting for evidence to come back from the state bureau of investigation.
Hardy is facing multiple drug charges, including felony trafficking, stemming from his September 2009 arrest.

Former Knockout files workers comp claim Posted by Corbin Nordhoff on 03/15/2011 at 08:10 PM
Daffney issued a statement today on her Twitter account concerning her status with TNA Wrestling and she confirms that she has parted ways with the organization. Her contract expires today and company officials opted not to renew it. The Scream Queen claims she is unsure if her contract not being renewed is tied to her filing a workers compensation claim against the organization due to injuries she sustained working for them.
Yesterday my picture was taken down off of the TNA roster page. My contract expires today and TNA did not renew it, she wrote. I do not know if it has anything to do with it, but Ive made a Workers Comp claim against them due to injuries Ive sustained in the ring and my lawyers said to not go into anymore details.
At the April 20, 2010 Impact taping, Daffney was injured during a dark match against a novice performer, Miss Betsy (a/k/a Rosie Lottalove). She was taken to a hospital, where she was diagnosed with a deeply bruised sternum, a severe stinger and a concussion. Daffney made her return to TNA at the June 14 Xplosion taping, but would not resurface again until the December 9 episode of Impact. This marked her final appearance for TNA.
- It was speculated that Miss Tessmacher has parted ways with TNA Wrestling considering her pictures were removed from their website on Monday. However, they were added back today, as well as a profile to the roster page.
Daffney and Kiyoshi, however, were not added back to the site.
