Bubba the Love Sponge incident?

She attacked him after he made some comments about Haiti on his Twitter.

He said something along the lines of:

"**** Haiti, we've got enough problems in the US to sort out"

Would love to see Kong in WWE, would be hilarious to see her taking out Kelly Kelly!

[MrMichael]

It would. Never going to happen though.

Still not entirely convinced the Bubba/Kong thing isn't a work. But if she AND Melissa are gone from TNA that's a huge blow to the knockouts. Huge.

Not seen last night's impact but it sounds like a crazy show. AJ w/Flair heel turn, Bischoff firing Foley after an attack, then Aj/Angle/Hebner and Hogan recreating the Montreal screw job?

Not to mention the Nasty Boys going over.

I guess they're raising brand profile and all that, but its a shame it can't be for the right reasons.

Cheers mate, what a tosser

The way the WWE divas are booked, Kelly would probably win (god I hate her, her stupid name alone reminds me of the Nevilles)

Wrestling has sunk to some depths in its time but I really hope it hasn't sunk that low.

Bubba the love sponge is a ****in grease stain. I'd have punched him for that. Still no news on why Flash has gone. Vince should sign them for sure. TNA are writing their own destruction here

Anyone watch the womens segment on Smackdown, the team of the Glamazon, McCool and Layla beating and talking **** to the 'fat' 'piggy' James. It was a great setup to possibly bringing in Kong.

Be great to see Kong in WWE. The SD divas stuff is so much better that Raw (apart from Maryese!)

[Leyton388]

Really getting in to TNA now. Nice to see some legends in there and some new talent as well. It seems to be better than WWE at the minute.

what happened on RAW this week then?

what happened on RAW this week then?

Nothing awesome. More DX tension. Sheamus took on Cena again, DQ finish, AGAIN. It's Mayrese vs Gail for the title @ the Rumble, Miz and MVP continued to goad each other and that's about it

Bret will be back next week after Vince got slagged off by Cena and got bullied into letting him back next week. Vinces promo and interaction with the crowd was great. He hopped the barrier and went talking to the fans. Hilarious

I'm going with

Zeke (Move Christian to SD)
Mickie
Sheamus
Taker
HHH to win the Rumble

[MrMichael]

No idea about the rest. Any chance Edge will be fit to return?... if so he might win the Rumble.

There is a rumour he's back tonight. If Jericho is left on his own in the Rumble at one point I think we may see Edge

[MrMichael]

Ahhh. I don't think I'll be watching this tonight so I'll be interested to hear what its like, ie worth downloading.

I'm gutted about what's been going on in TNA. I kinda see what they're trying to do, and it might even work, but it feels like a different company now almost, and I liked what it was.

Kennedy... sorry, Anderson, is getting over as a heel pretty fast, he works a crowd very well. He and Pope could really become break-out stars for TNA if they get it right. Its the rest of what's going on there than concerns me a bit more....
