Why what? He's got a feud going on with Punk, Punk knocked him out last week, he made Punk apologize before Summerslam, then he went off with Kevin Nash on Raw. It looks like they're setting it up to be him who texted Nash to take out Punk on Summerslam. Maybe he's in league with Stephanie.

According to linda hogan, she said that hogan was giving it to the barber.

Well Hogan made THAT pretty obvious when he would refer to Brutus as "Brother Brown-eye" during his promos!

TNA co-founder Jerry Jarrett had some strong things to say about what he thinks is wrong with TNA’s creative direction during a recent interview with PostandCourier.com:
“Until they make radical surgical changes in creative, and unless they get some people who comprehend the wrestling business, they are doomed to be the financial drain on Panda [Energy] that they are now and have been since inception. The core of their problems is the creative development of their product. They have to cut the cancer out.”
Jarrett then named Vince Russo by the name as the cancer he was referring to:
“I would deserve the label ‘stupid’ if I had made the decision to hire Vince Russo. But I made the horrendous mistake of yielding to my son’s (Jeff) wishes.”
“He obviously has qualities that I don’t recognize or understand. How can a person who has a 15-year history of failure still keep a job?”


Couldn't have said it better myself.

So what's the 2012 HOF looking like?

Early speculation.....
Edge inducted by Christian
Arn Anderson inducted by Ricky Steamboat
Randy Savage inducted by Lanny Poffo
Jimmy Hart inducted by the Hart Foundation
Rick Martel inducted by Tito Santana

Who else???

On a side note ..... How is it that Owen isn't in the Hall?

[VaultMan]

Edge deserves to be in the HOF before Jake Roberts or Don Muraco?

[Tony Coca]

Muraco is already in the HoF.

Owen isn't in yet cause of his wife not allowing WWE to use his likeness and the fact she sued WWE.

I can see Arn getting inducted by Dean Malenko. Hopefully they will ask Ric to do it.

If Jake goes in. (Not sure if he is in or not) Steamboat should do it.

[rychehitman]

Steamboat is one of Arn's best friends.....but Malenko would make sensue too.

I really don't see Jake ever getting in until after his death.

Edge is loved by the front office. He will go in immediately.

I totally think Muraco deserves to be in there! Inducted by Fuji!
