Knockouts In Playboy? Smakdown Rating, Mr T Shoots On WWE, Mysterio News
From Emma Patterson of TheSun.co.uk:
SO CAL VAL has said the TNA Knockouts are ready to step up to the plate and pose for Playboy now that the WWE Divas have pulled out. After years of nude shoots for Hugh Hefner’s mag, Vince McMahon has barred his girls from baring all in a bid to make the WWE more “family friendly”. And gorgeous redhead Val has pleaded for TNA’s women’s division to take over and follow in the footsteps of the likes of Sable, Torrie and Marie.
- Last week’s WWE Smackdown on MyNetworkTV drew a 2.3 broadcast rating, which is the best they’ve done on the network so far. This is no surprise considering the big name matches they had on the show.
- Thanks to Mike Aldren:
Mr T. who has been in the UK promoting Snickers said he turned down a spot in the WWE Hall of Fame. He said in an interview that he felt “insulted” by the presence of Pete Rose in the celebrity wing: “WWE asked me to be in the Hall of Fame and I turned it down. You know why? They put Pete Rose in the wrestling Hall of Fame. This guy can’t even get into his own Hall of Fame… After they put Rose in they came and asked me and I said “You don’t insult me! You don’t put Pete Rose in the Hall of Fame before me! I ain’t going to be a part of that… They put him in and he only did one WrestleMania, and he didn’t even wrestle.”
[Editor's Note: Yeah and you had a two decade long career in wrestling...right].
- The “personal reason” why Rey Mysterio missed some recent dates was actually because his wife gave birth to their third child. Big congrats to them!





Who does Mr. T think he is? I mean, honestly.
“Pete Rose didn’t wrestle!” Yeah T, as if YOU did. I bet all this hostility doesn’t stop you from cashing the royalty checks every time WWE uses WM1 footage, does it?
The guy talks like he’s Harley Race when, in all actuality, he was a pop cultural flash in the pan. It could just as easily been Falco or a guy in a Pac-Man costume as Hogan’s tag partner.
He should thank God AND Vince McMahon that he was a part of WM1 and 2 because it’s the ONLY reason anyone under the age of 30 knows who the hell he is.
No one talks or cares about “The A-Team” but there are LEGIONS of marks still talking about WM1. It’s probably the biggest thing for which he will be remembered.
why the hell is pete rose in the hall of fame, and why is mr. T being asked to join!?!? THEY ARE NOT KNOWN AS WRESTLERS!!!! stop inducting everything that breathes, has 2 arms and legs, and almost a working pulse wwe, please!!!! THE WWE HALL OF FAME SHOULD BE FOR THE GREATEST “WRESTLERS”, “MANAGERS”, “ANNOUNCERS” OF ALL TIME. you dont see goldberg being considered for the mlb hall of fame just cause he took batting practice at shea, ya know!!!! HERE’S AN IDEA.. instead of inducting people like mae young and pete rose why dont u disgruntled idiots at wwe who cant ever let n e thing go induct people who really deserve it!! and those people who top the list are SAVAGE and ROBERTS!!!! LET WHATEVER HAPPENED IN THE PAST GO!!!! GROW THE F#%* UP ALREADY… SPECIALLY U VINCE.
In case you didnt know dude Mae Young has been involved in the wrestling business for over 50 years or something. Apparently she was a great wrestler and would own any WWE diva or TNA knockout in her prime.
