The Miz discusses Marine 3: Homefront, WrestleMania 29, and working with Ric Flair


On the Marine 3 “Homefront” and working with the likes of Neal McDonough and Ashley Bell: “We spent about a month up in Vancouver shooting this and it was my first real movie that I’ve actually been able to do and had so much fun; I mean, whenever you get to work with stars like Neal McDonough, who’s done it all in the business, has been in the business for so long and has done such incredible work and I get to have the opportunity to go opposite of him and be the good guy while he’s the villain, which normally I’m used to being the villain, let me tell you something. I’m used to being the bad guy, the person

WWE star Chris Jericho on why he never signed with TNA, the concussion problem in pro wrestling and how it effected Chris Benoit

Jericho on why he didn't sign with TNA: "The main reason is that I always wanted to work for Vince McMahon ever since I was a kid. I've never worked for
anybody else since I stepped through the doors in August of 1999 and I never will work for anyone else. I don't want to go to Japan.

I don't want to go to Mexico for shots. I don't want to go work in TNA. I'm a WWE guy. That's the way it's always going to be. I'm sure TNA is a great company to work for. I'm sure you can do really well there or make some great money or whatever. It doesn't matter to me.

I work for the big leagues. There's no reason for me to go anywhere else."

Jericho also discussed changes in how concussions are treated in the industry and how it's shaped his views on Chris Benoit. "I was like everybody else. Shocked. A sense of 'what the [expletive]' happened. Denial. Betrayal. How can he do this?.

Jim Ross comments on Undertaker's return, Jack Swagger's legal issues, the Ross, Jerry Lawler, and Gene Okerlund Q&A event

-Ross on Undertaker: "Lots of buzz about the surprise return of the Undertaker Saturday night at a WWE live event in Waco Texas. Taker wasn't advertised  and competed in a tag team bout. It's great to see the Phenom stepping back into the ring and I hope that he gives himself a passing grade for his latest experience and that he feels great today... Like everyone else, I hope that Taker's return to the squared circle results in him performing at WM29 but I would suggest that isn't exactly a 'done deal' as I write this. Perhaps
we will learn more next week on WWE TV or the week after. I'm willing to simply stay tuned and enjoy the ride and I remain optimistic. (What a novel concept.)"
-Ross on Jack Swagger: "I'm still waiting for all the info to roll in from Mississippi

Hulk Hogan Responds To CM Punk's Raw Promo


Hulk Hogan has responded to comments CM Punk made in a promo about Superstars of yesteryear having it easier than him during an interview with http://fightingspiritmagazine.co.uk/
“CM Punk never had to walk into a dressing room where he wasn’t supposed to be. He never walked into Kansas City, where Harley Race was the champion for 20 years, where Harley had told all of his friends and neighbors that he was the only heavyweight champion, because he was the NWA champion

Chris Jericho Recalls Telling WWE Writing Team To F*** Themselves


In an interview with AfterBuzz TV Chris Jericho recalled the moment he was  voted to face CM Punk in a #RawActive match on the February 4 episode of Raw. He said a "flash poll" was held prior to Raw in which the WWE writing team expected Randy Orton to win over Jericho and Rey Mysterio as he was fresh off a strong return however, when Jericho won there was complete shock backstage forcing a script change. Jericho said he recalled thinking the afternoon of Raw, “I knew I was going to win." and when he did he went into the writers room and said 'All you guys with your flash polls, go F yourself, you can suck it.'”

Urgent WWE Meeting Called Over Glenn Beck's Response

Apparently WWE officials are upset about Glenn Beck turning down their invite for Monday's Raw and may be planning something to mock him on the show.

Dave Meltzer reported on F4Wonline.com that things are so serious Stephanie McMahon had the WWE writing team in the offices at 12:30am on a Friday night re-doing the script for Monday's Raw.

Glenn Beck Responds to WWE, Swagger, and Colter

Glenn Beck took to his personal Twitter account to reply to the WWE's invitation to appear on Monday's Raw. He simply stated “Unfortunately I am currently booked doing anything else.”
Wrestling Observer Newsletter is reporting that Stephanie McMahon has kept WWE writers incredibly late working on Monday's Raw. This is likely due to a number of things, including getting the run up to Wrestlemania just right, but also implies there is a lot of care been given to the Swagger angle as it seems to be getting the company more coverage in the media than The Rock appearing at Wrestlemania. Expect Glenn Beck's name to pop up at some point on Monday's show.

Keeping his Royal Rumble return a surprise and being rewarded with a huge pop: “I don’t know if I was rewarded with a huge pop. I think it was the fact that people were genuinely surprised and shocked and kind of rewarding themselves. I think it was cool in this day and age that we can actually still surprise people and fool them; especially with the internet all the different ways of social media. And the fact that not one person leaked it, I thought it was a real testament to the company, a real testament to how close I kept it to the vest because not a lot of people knew.

Former WWE World Heavyweight Champion Mark Henry made his return on Monday's WWE Raw. Henry threw Daniel Bryan aside, and eventually left Rey Mysterio and Sin Cara lying.
