Again we go into the WWE vault to see what they have in store for us in July. I’ll give you a hint- he calls everyone “Tough Guy”

This site needs some actual wrestling content again so let’s fill that gap by going into the WWE’s expansive vault- with their monthly wrestling programming. This time we go back to February of 1993 for WCW Superbrawl 3. For the record I wrote this review before all the Benoit nonsense started so I do speak glowingly of [...]

I never liked Mark Mero, the wrestler. But Mero, the man, is on my short list with Konnan, for guys who every wrestler owes a thank you. Blackmen, well, he would be best served teaching high school gym class.

The old man still spins and entertains, though FOX is wacked out no matter what show they broadcast. If you get ANY news from them, please leave this site NOW! Like Gambling, they are for entertainment purposes only.

This is not a clever nod to the great Mysterio - Juvy feud of the mid-90s. TMZ.com is now reporting what Mark Madden and others had said earlier in the week: They are reporting Rey Mysterio Jr. and Mark Jindrak to be patients of Federally indited Dr. Astin, Benoit’s person doctor. UPDATE: This story has been [...]

First off, happy Fourth of July. Here’s some good media for the day, focused on Konnan giving a print interview and Chris Benoit’s mom speaking out.

Inside are the links for the day of relevant info on the Benoit case. I’m going to a picnic and not worrying about anything for the next 24 hours. Have a good holiday

Gret Van Susteran may be the only cable TV host that has done this story justice. Ted DiBiase was backstage at WWE RAW when the news was told to wrestlers of the Benoit Family death. This is what he said about that and the situation on Greta’s show:

Konnan was a guest on Nancy Grace last night (the guest host is only slightly less stupid then Nancy herself) and was a credit to every wrestler who has ever taken a bump. Sure he was more honest because of his options, but he spoke the truth, and was even more honest then Chris Jericho. [...]

It was broken by FOX News Channel, but is now being corroborated by more credible sources, that between May 2006 and May 2007 Dr. Astin was prescribing Chris Benoit 10 months worth of steroids every 3 to four weeks. This also falls in the timeline of the supposed “clean” drug test, which would be “clean” [...]

Things are about to get ugly. Benoit’s doctor, Phil Astin, has been or is about to be charged with drug distribution. He has something in comment w/ Dr. Zahorian and Hacket: They were mark doctors. What could be scary about this is who he might have listed as other clients. Did he meet with other [...]

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, which has done some amazing reporting in the wake of the local tragedy that went national, is carrying an article by Greg Oliver, which can be read here. It covers some personal interactions he had with Benoit, and what his background is in wrestling and wrestling writing. I found it an honest [...]

While this Grace woman is clearly half retarded (My professional opinion, as unlike her I like to clarify things), Jericho does his best to walk her through the interview and make good points. If that’s not enough, Nancy finally learns what Four Horsemen and RAW are, and what demotion Benoit may or may not have [...]

Other then Jericho’s party line, and this is true of all wrestlers who privately will say they are the whores to promoters Pimps, which is to say he put over WWE’s drug testing and didn’t explain it’s multiple loopholes, Jericho was by far the best rep for wrestling all week (including Vince and Linda McMahon).

ESPN has some strong coverage from a human interest perspective. Links inside

After a week of good reporting for wrestling journalists and some hype and hysteria from lazy mainstream journalists, these next few links are having a better degree of research and progression from the simplistic “all wrestlers are crazy juice heads ands this one got drugged up and killed everybody” story. Media links inside.

I want to thank Brian Hansley for his coverage of TNA Impact this week. It’s a nice reminder that wrestling can be a positive escape for it’s fans still, and I’d like to promote the “love of the game” even if things must change within “the game”. We have an AP article that will run in [...]

Linda McMahon from Good Morning America Video. Her focus was Daniel Benoit’s illness.

Benoit’s doctor, interviewed by the press in the last few days, had his office raided last night. I think it’s safe to say there were warning signs in the doctors interview, as he talked about Benoit being in his office to “visit with his staff”, and yet they didn’t talk. So Benoit just hangs out [...]
