-- During Monday's Raw SuperShow, WWE displayed a graphic pointing to a YouTube page. The page features a cryptic video teasing the return of a familiar wrestler on January 2, 2012the first Raw of next year. WWE's latest cryptic tease inevitably led to speculation that absent talent Chris Jericho could be returning to the organization. Jericho, however, has already dismissed the possibility.
When asked by a Twitter user what he's doing on January 2, 2012, he responded, "Working in Hawaii."
Wrestling Observer editor Dave Meltzer reported over the weekend that contract negotiations between both parties recently fell through and that a possible return is now considered a "dead issue."
- WWE Diva Layla will be returning to the ring from injury soon. She did a chat on WWE's website last night before RAW and was recently featured in a poll asking who should face Beth Phoenix for the Divas Title next. Layla won the poll with 55% of votes.
The Miz & R-Truth Comment On Their Breakup Posted by Dave Mitchell on 11/22/2011 at 09:44 AM
At the end of Monday's RAW, we saw The Miz unleash a brutal attack on his former tag team partner, R-Truth.
The former members of Awesome Truth wrote the following on Twitter last night regarding their team's dissolution:
The Miz: "So in order to trend all I had to do is SCF Truth? #ThatsWhatsUp"
R-Truth: "Getting up to go get checked out,,but having balancing problem...can't think straight..."
The WWE website has a new video of The Miz up after attacking R-Truth on last night's RAW Supershow. Miz says he did what he did because he's tired of people getting in his way and slowing him down.
IT BEGINS: Transcript Of WWE's Crytic Promo Posted by Dave Mitchell on 11/21/2011 at 10:24 PM
On Mondays RAW, when WWE was showing one of the Twitter on-screen graphics, the image got fuzzy and briefly showed a URL to a Youtube channel It Begins 2012.
The URL revealed a cryptic video of a young student talking about something big occurring on Monday, January 2nd, 2012 when RAW is live from Memphis, TN.
The boy who was narrating the video said:
"Come my people and shut thy doors about thee. For a power should come to punish the meek for their inequity. For on the second day of 2012, a familiar force shall arrive to claim what is his. And it will be the end of the world as you know it."
Diva Valets Epico -- Epico and Primo beat Percy Watson and Titus O'Neil in a dark match prior at tonight's Raw SuperShow in Hershey, Pennsylvania. Epico and Primo were accompanied by Rosa Mendes.
Al 5 jaar lang bestaat The Wrestling Game en vorige maand heb ik eindelijk besloten om hem ook in het nederlands te gaan vertalen, In het spel gaat het erom dat je een worstelaar creeert en hem steeds sterker maakt, nu is alles nog in zogenoemde text-base style, maar inmiddels willen we de wedstrijden ook laten zien in 3d beelden, momenteel wordt daar hard aan gewerkt en rond kerst 2011 willen we de eerste beelden op de site zetten, begint met 15 moves en uiteindelijk tot alle 560 moves die de game heeft, als je een echte worstelfan ben is het spel zeker heel erg leuk om te spelen, ook hebben we shows elke week die door een General Manager gemaakt wordt en waar je dan zelf in kan zitten en een roleplay kan maken zo dat je je worstelaar ook een karakter kan geven, het spel is in principe voorledig gratis online te spelen, natuurlijk kan je supporter worden en extra dingen krijgen, maar dat is hellemaal aan jezelf, je mag het spel ten alle tijd gratis blijven spelen, ik zelf speel dit spel nu al 2 jaar en vindt het nog steeds heel erg leuk om te spelen, zelfs na 3 jaar heb je het spel niet uitgespeeld, is in principe ook onmogelijk, omdat we dan steeds weer dingen verzinnen waardoor je bezig blijft, echt saai wordt het spel nooit, het is het enige worstelspel om internet waar je tegen andere gebruikers speelt, waardoor het ook heel erg uniek maakt en niet tegen een computer speelt, maar tegen echte andere gebruikers, als je je nu aanmeldt krijg je de eerste 4 dagen gratis supporter als kado, we zien u graag op deze unieke spel in nederland

WWE Raw SuperShow results: The "Awesome Truth" unfolds By: Ryan Murphy November 21, 2011 Tags: WWE Raw SuperShow: November 21, 2011
HERSHEY, Pa. With the Rock Bottom Heard Round the World still resounding throughout the WWE Universe, John Cena attempted to set the issue straight. Instead, the Cenation leader created an entirely different issue between the members of The Awesome Truth.
John Cena embarrassed The Awesome Truth; The Miz laid R-Truth out (WATCH | PHOTOS) In the middle of addressing The Rocks attack on him, John Cena was interrupted, as usual, by The Awesome Truth. Looking to rile up the Cenation leader, The Awesome One and his dangerous crony got more than they bargained for when Cena turned the tables and convinced both Superstars that they shouldnt trust one another.
The Cenations leaders seeds of doubt quickly grew into a serious issue between the partners in crime, leading to pushing and shoving in the ring. As politically savvy as ever, The Miz managed to calm his partner down, but as soon as R-Truth turned his back, his former friend nailed him with a blistering Skull-Crushing Finale on the steel entrance ramp.
Wade Barrett def. Kofi Kingston (WATCH | PHOTOS) The man who led Team Barrett to victory at Survivor Series continued his so-called Barrage on WWE Raw SuperShow as he barreled through Kofi Kingston, but the British Superstars bout was shaken by a surprise appearance from Randy Orton. Momentarily taking Barrett off his game, The Viper kept a keen eye on the action from ringside as his rival scored the win. The arrogant brawler taunted Orton after the bout, but the former WWE Champion did not strike. Like a true predator, hes waiting for the perfect opportunity.
Big Show discussed his destruction of World Heavyweight Champion Mark Henry (WATCH | PHOTOS) Using all 480 pounds of his 7-foot frame to decimate Mark Henrys ankle during Sundays World Heavyweight Championship Match, Big Show personally inducted The Worlds Strongest Man into the Hall of Pain at Survivor Series. The Worlds Largest Athlete admitted it felt good to hurt his rival, but he wont be happy until hes wearing the World Heavyweight Title around his massive waist.
WWE Champion CM Punk def. United States Champion Dolph Ziggler in a Title-free Match (WATCH | PHOTOS) Their championships may not have been at stake in this match, but both new WWE Champion CM Punk and United States Champion Dolph Ziggler certainly fought like they were. Convinced that he was, in fact, the new face of WWE, the United States Title holder looked to knock Punk off his perch early, but The Straight Edge Superstar wasnt going down that easy. Catching the bleached blond off guard, the WWE Champion scored with a devastating GTS to secure a thrilling victory.
Intercontinental Champion Cody Rhodes def. Santino Marella (WATCH | PHOTOS) Describing himself as unmasked, unbeatable and completely unrepentant, Cody Rhodes made an example of Santino Marella, but the real story occurred after the match. Before leaving ringside, the Intercontinental Champion unexpectedly threw a glass of water in the face of commentator Booker T. Afterward, Book revealed that he tried to convince Rhodes that his problems were in his head earlier in the night an unwelcome bit of advice that clearly didnt sit well with the disturbed Superstar.
Kevin Nash taunted Triple H (WATCH | PHOTOS) With Triple H still recuperating from Kevin Nashs vicious sledgehammer attack, the big man took another opportunity to taunt his former friend on live television. Taking cruel pleasure in his words, Nash bragged about returning to Madison Square Garden the sight of The Kliqs infamous 1996 WWE farewell while The Game was incapacitated at home. Nash then reiterated that his animosity towards The Cerebral Assassin comes down to one thing friendship. In Big Daddy Cools view, WWEs COO ended The Kliq when he didnt sign him to a contract, so Nash ended The King of Kings by breaking his neck with a sledgehammer.
Sheamus def. Jack Swagger (WATCH | PHOTOS) Jack Swagger was so furious after being manhandled by Sheamus during Sundays Traditional Survivor Series Elimination Tag Team Match that he demanded a bout with The Celtic Warrior tonight. Big mistake. Attacking his opponent with the same fire that got him disqualified at Survivor Series, The Great White planted The All-American American with a Brogue Kick.
Alberto Del Rio def. Zack Ryder (WATCH | PHOTOS) Less than 24 hours after dropping the WWE Title to CM Punk, Alberto Del Rio was out to prove that he was still the man to beat in WWE, but he was facing one of the fastest rising Superstars in WWE. Still pumping his fist from the ovation he received in the Garden, Zack Ryder had the WWE fans in Hershey behind him tonight, but it wasnt enough to stop the underhanded skills of The Mexican Aristocrat.
WWE Champion CM Punk mouthed off to John Laurinaitis (WATCH | PHOTOS) Still reeling after winning the WWE Title in Madison Square Garden at Survivor Series, WWE Champion CM Punk promised the WWE faithful in Hershey, Pennsylvania that he would make things interesting on WWE Raw SuperShow again. His first goal? To put Interim Raw General Manager John Laurinaitis on the unemployment line.
The WWE Universe may have liked the sound of that, but Mr. Laurinaitis was quick to squash their applause. Entering to tell the new WWE Champion that he believes they can work together, the Executive Vice President of Talent Relations promised that he was more radical than one might expect and then proved his unpredictability by scheduling Punk in two bouts a rematch against Alberto Del Rio next Monday and a showdown with United States Champion Dolph Ziggler tonight.
The Rock Cuts Long Promo After Survivor Series PPV Posted by Steve Carrier on 11/21/2011 at 11:07 AM
- Not only did The Rock score the pin in his tag bout against The "Awesome Truth" at Survivor Series but he nailed his WrestleMania opponent, John Cena, with a Rock Bottom after the match. He then spoke to the Madison Square Garden audience following the pay-per-view broadcast.
He started off his speech by saying "Can The Rock get some water? Jesus Christ!" The Rock told a ringside attendant "You better give The Rock some water, or I'll kick your monkey ass."
A loud chant then broke out with half the crowd chanting "You still got it!" while the other half chanted "Welcome back!" The Rock told the audience "to make up their damn minds." He then addressed one-half of the crowd by saying "As far as you still got it, shit, I always had it!"
A "We want Ryder" chant then broke out. The Rock said "Yeah, I love him. I can't believe how tall that son of a bitch is!"
A fan in the crowd yelled "Are you gonna cry?!" and The Rock responded, "Hell no! I'll put boots to asses before I cry! There must be some good weed in NYC for people to ask if The Rock is gonna cry!"
The Rock continued speaking by saying that he came to entertain the fans tonight. He thanks them all and says tonight was the greatest night in the history of his WWE career. He says tonight is only the beginning and "the money isn't that bad either."
The Rock thanks the fans once more and says goodnight. He spent a lot of time shaking hands around ringside, including the announcers and attendants.
Superstars & Divas Tweet About Survivor Series Posted by Dave Mitchell on 11/21/2011 at 10:47 AM
Several WWE Superstars commented on the Survivor Series pay-per-view last night:
The Rock: "Last night at Survivor Series, TEAM BRING IT rocked the Garden and electrified the world. Proud of U. #BootsToAsses"
Beth Phoenix: "@EveMarieTorres Ill give her credit...i had to obliterate her cuz she just wont quit..but tmrws a new day..and Eve.u will cry. #pinupstrong"
Eve Torres: "It was an honor to compete at The Garden tonight. Thank you NYC. & thank u @TheBethPhoenix for reminding me how badly I want what you have."
Jim Ross: "No shock @TheRock was on his game after 7+ years away. He's gifted. If Rock/Cena left u 'wanting more' then what occurred worked. #SauceIt"
Zack Ryder: "Thank you NYC...Thank you Broskis...... #RyderRevolution"
Wade Barrett: "Once again, I illustrated supreme leadership and in-ring skills tonight. The #BarrettBarrage is legit. No prisoners. No arguments."
Kofi Kingston: "As always, MSG was epic. The feeling never gets old. Thanks for all the compliments on the gear too by the way! Tomorrow we do it again!"
The official Twitter feed of the WWE Insider stated this evening that Sin Cara suffered a ruptured patellar tendon and will be sidelined for six to nine months, following surgery.
The masked grappler suffered the injury while performing a dive outside the ring during the Traditional Survivor Series Elimination Tag Team Match. He was left unable to compete and therefore eliminated.
Evan Bourne's suspension for his first violation of WWE's Talent Wellness Program has generated a great deal of controversy amongst talent as some feel a double standard is in place.
Bourne, who's real name is Matthew Korklan, was suspended for thirty days on November 1, 2011 after testing positive for Spice, a synthetic marijuana brand. Bourne and another wrestler higher up the card smoked the marijuana substitute drug at a party, yet he was the only one of the two to be suspended. The other wrestler was told he had failed for marijuana, which results in a $2,500 fine, as opposed to a thirty-day suspension for synthetic marijuana.
According to a source, the wrestler in question is a participant in tonight's Survivor Series match featuring John Cena and The Rock against R-Truth and The Miz.
This has led to questions about whether WWE's drug testing procedure is flawed or whether talent are treated differently depending on their status in the organization.
This would not be the first time in which WWE reprieved a top-level talent who had violated their Talent Wellness Program. On August 30, 2007, Sports Illustrated named Randy Orton as one of fourteen contracted and former WWE performers to have purchased pharmaceuticals from an online pharmacy (Signature Pharamacy), a violation of the Talent Wellness Program. Specifically, Orton received somatropin, nandrolone, stanozolol between September 2004 and February 2007, which occurred after the "no drugs from online sources" rule was instituted. However, Orton was the lone contracted performer not to be suspended by WWE. WWE did not suspend Orton because he had already been suspended for a drug policy violation in August 2006, resulting in double jeopardy. The ruling, however, appeared nonsensical since Orton continued to receive pharmaceuticals following the suspension. WWE attorney Jerry McDevitt claimed last year in a letter to Irv Muchnick that "no action was taken against Randy Orton because he was not on any customer list for Signature Pharmacy ever provided to us by District Attorney Soares."

The latest on Matt Hardy following arrest Posted by Marc Middleton on 11/20/2011 at 12:53 PM
Reby Sky stated on her Formspring account that she is able to bail partner Matt Hardy out of jail following his arrest Friday night for violating a court order, but chooses not to at this time.
Sky was asked Saturday if she would be bailing Hardy out that day and responded, "Let him sit there. And think. Hard."
She wrote Saturday night regarding his whereabouts, "I'm reading a lot of ridiculous things on the 'dirtsheets' tonight, so to clear things up: I could have bailed him out & did not. He's still in jail. Have fun with that."
She added, "He's understandably upset but not angry - He knows he has no right to be at this point."
Hardy announced on September 19, 2011 that he was checking himself into a WWE-sponsored rehabilitation center for the next three months. It was later reported that entering rehab was one of the conditions for Hardy's release from custody following his third arrest within a month. On Friday, Hardy was kicked out of a court-ordered rehab for failing a breathalyzer test. He was arrested for violating the court order when he returned to Moore County in North Carolina, and was booked into the Moore County Detention Center on a million dollar bond.

SmackDown results: "Crutching" the competition By: Michael Burdick November 18, 2011 Tags: SmackDown: November 18, 2011
BRIDGEPORT, Conn. Just two days before WWEs second longest running pay-per-view, SmackDown served as a volatile battleground leading into Survivor Series this Sunday.
Randy Orton & Sheamus def. Intercontinental Champion Cody Rhodes & Wade Barrett by Disqualification (WATCH | PHOTOS) An injured Christian lurked at ringside as four of the key Superstars involved in this Sundays 5-on-5 Traditional Tag Team Match went head-to-head. Though not able to compete, the crafty Superstar still influenced the outcome of the match, delivering a painful crutch blow to Sheamus, ending the match in disqualification.
When Survivor Series Team Captain Barrett & Rhodes attempted to use the crutch after the match, The Celtic Warrior turned the tide, blasting Rhodes with the Brogue Kick. Sheamus then broke the weapon over Barretts back, setting up Team Captain Orton to blast The English Superstar with the RKO. The Great White then followed suit, hitting the Celtic Cross on the Intercontinental Champion to give Team Orton incredible momentum heading into Survivor Series. (MATCH PREVIEW)
Divas Champion Beth Phoenix & Natalya def. AJ & Kaitlyn (WATCH | PHOTOS) Two days before Divas Champion Beth Phoenix will battle Eve in a Lumberjill Match at Survivor Series (MATCH PREVIEW), The Fabulous Firebird teamed up with her Pin-up Strong cohort Natalya. Despite a spirited effort by their beautiful opponents, Natalya ultimately made AJ tap out to the Sharpshooter. Kofi Kingston def. Hunico (WATCH | PHOTOS) In a fast-paced thrill ride between Survivor Series Tag Team Match combatants, Kofi Kingston reigned supreme over Hunico with the SOS. After the bell, the Mexican high-flyer showed open hostility toward the referee, for what he clearly felt was an earlier missed three-count in his favor.
Big Show makes a World renown Survivor Series prediction (PHOTOS) Big Show may have arrived in Bridgeport too late to stop Mark Henrys brutal assault on Daniel Bryan. However, with The Worlds Strongest Champions attack on him at Money in the Bank still in the forefront of his mind (PHOTOS), the giant made it clear that his ferocious foe would not walk out of Survivor Series. In no uncertain terms, he promised to capture the World Title with the help of the WMD. (MATCH PREVIEW)
Ted DiBiase def. Derrick Bateman (WATCH | PHOTOS) NXTs power couple, Beta-Max, made their SmackDown debut, as Derrick Bateman took on Ted DiBiase. But, with the DiBiase Posse in full effect, love would not win out. Instead, it would be the happy-go-lucky second-generation Superstar who picked up another impressive win with Dream Street.
An injured Christian chastised the WWE Universe (PHOTOS) Claiming the injuries to his neck and ankle that caused him to be replaced at Survivor Series could keep him out of action for months, Christian laid the blame on Big Shows attack two weeks ago, SmackDown GM Theodore Longs incompetence and the strain of WWEs recent European Tour.
Promising to continue to inspire the members of Team Barrett to victory at Survivor Series, the former World Heavyweight Champion tore into the WWE Universe for not being sympathetic to his plight.
Mason Ryan def. Jack Swagger (WATCH | PHOTOS) Following the altercation that took place after the Sin Cara vs. Dolph Ziggler match, Teddy Long made an impromptu showdown between Mason Ryan and Jack Swagger. The ultra-powerful Ryan ultimately emerged victorious, locking Swagger in a full nelson, before driving him into the canvas.
United States Champion Dolph Ziggler def. Sin Cara (WATCH | PHOTOS) Prior to Dolph Zigglers match with Sin Cara, Vickie Guerrero praised the fact that the United States Champion will compete twice at Survivor Series defending his title against John Morrison (MATCH PREVIEW) and replacing an injured Christian in the 5-on-5 Traditional Survivor Series Tag Team Match (MATCH PREVIEW).
After avoiding Sin Caras aerial assault, Ziggler reversed his opponents pin attempt, grabbing the victory with the help of a handful of tights.
When the smug Ziggler celebrated after the match, his outraged masked foe attacked. Guerrero quickly called for Jack Swagger, who emerged to help his Survivor Series teammate. But the two-on-one assault was soon dismantled by Mason Ryan, who charged into the ring and hurled the bleach blond Superstar into the air with incredible force. SmackDown began with a beat down (WATCH | PHOTOS) SmackDown opened in a state of turmoil, as the disrespected World Heavyweight Champion Mark Henry unleashed a ruthless assault on Daniel Bryan near the locker room area, before dragging his prey out in front of the WWE Universe to continue the carnage. Though Mr. Money in the Bank tried valiantly to fight back, his fierce attacker proved too strong.
After delivering back-to back Worlds Strongest Slams to finish off the gutsy target of his rage, Henry promised that this Sunday, Big Show will be carried out of Survivor Series at Madison Square Garden and he would leave still the World Heavyweight Champion. (MATCH PREVIEW)
Matt Hardy was arrested as soon as he got off a plane last night in Moore County, NC. He was booked at 1:30AM ET for violation of a court order. Hardy had a new mugshot photo taken when booked. You can click here to view his new mugshot from this morning.
As noted earlier here on eWrestlingNews.com, Matt Hardy was kicked out of rehab on Friday after he failed a breathalyzer test. Multiple sources are reporting that staff at the center where Hardy was at got suspicious of his behavior and gave him an impromptu breathalyzer test that he failed. Hardy said he wasn't drinking and that he failed because he'd "just used mouthwash." The staff didn't believe him and kicked him out.
Matt faces imprisonment on a million dollar bond for not complying with the treatment.
Former wrestling champ Matt Hardy was kicked out of court-ordered rehab today for failing a breathalyzer test ... this according to multiple sources.
Earlier this year, Hardy was ordered to go to rehab by the court after a string of run-ins with the law.
We're told the staff at the rehab got suspicious of Hardy's behavior on Friday and gave him a breathalyzer test on the spot ... which he failed. According to our sources, Hardy was adamant he wasn't drinking ... and said he only failed because he had "just used mouthwash."
The staff wasn't convinced and gave Hardy the old heave-ho from the facility.
Back in September, the Moore County DA said if Hardy didn't comply with the treatment, he would be put in jail on a million dollar bond. We're told Hardy still had about a month to go before he was through.
