RVD Radio News, Deuce’s New Gimmick, New TNA Show Update, More JR
- Press Release:
This Wednesday (12/17) On RVD RADIO, we’ll talk about cancer, and survivor stories. We want to hear from you, so be ready to share! Also joining SVD and myself will be Survivor contestant and actress Jerri Manthee, ECW original Francine, Neil Kaplan and Sabu, to name a few. We’ve all had so much fun with RVD RADIO over the last several weeks. My blogs have to share the outlet position for my life pondering now. We’ve talked about so many topics from government conspiracies to holiday seasons, organized religion to language censorship. Last week, we had Sabu, Fonzie (Bill Alfonso)-that’s right, Daddy, Kid Kash, “The Masterpiece” Chris Masters, of course SVD, and our official RVD RADIO law representative Officer X all talking about Road Rage. Lots of stories!
RVD RADIO airs live Wednesdays 6-8 P.S.T. (9-11 E.S.T.) and you can go to www.blogtalkradio.com/rvdradio or call (347) 308-8754 to listen or join in on the conversation!
- Deuce is now playing up the fact that he is a second generation star and is working the Raw roster as Sim Snuka. He is the adopted son of Snuka. It seems that he’ll be joining the Randy Orton group. There is a feeling that Deuce is only getting this shot and wasn’t previously released because he is a second generation star. WWE are putting a lot of stock in these guys.
- Just a quick correction. The new TNA show “Epix” will be syndicated like Xplosion and is not an online show; my mistake came when it wasn’t listed for Spike TV, which is what they originally wanted.
- Jim Ross posted his Armageddon thoughts on the JRSBARBQ.com blog:
Armageddon was a fun wrestling show of which to be a part. Selfishly, I wish Tazz and I could have stayed busier. Sitting for 2 hours and then having to “turn it on” for the main event is challenging. Nonetheless, we had a great ringside seat for a show that came off better than many expected.
With a 3 week build and nestled between the Survivor Series and the Royal Rumble (6 weeks away), many fans weren’t expecting how well this event actually delivered.
Buffalo was hospitable and the crowd seemed to do their share.
Did Jeff Hardy go from enigma to icon with his WWE Title victory? Felt that way to me.
The Triple Threat main event (I’m Smackdown biased) was one of the best 3 man bouts in the WWE in a long time. Amazing effort by all three men. Innovative and surprising are 2 words that come to mind when describing it. In all due respect, no other bout on the card could have successfully followed it.
Cena & Jericho have definite chemistry. Really solid Raw feature.
Randy Orton has come back hotter than he has ever been. Batista winning surprised me, which keeps this rivalry alive.
Funny stuff w/Santino (as always), Boogeyman, and Goldust.
Mae Young is amazing when one thinks about her age and willingness to still be a part of the business.
I missed Miz/Morrison on the show. They have gotten really good. Wish they were Smackdown regulars.
The announcers had fun during the Santa’s Helper match.
Rey vs Punk was a winner as Punk’s win surprised me. Fan favorite bouts are challenging for the talent, but these two pulled it off. Rey’s lucky he didn’t receive a broken nose.
Finlay-Henry was basic, straight forward and the use of “toys” helped it. Nice physicality.
The JBL-HBK business has my interest. Anxious to see how this one evolves.
Kozlov-Matt Hardy was better than many predicted. The big Russian continues to improve while Matt is grossly underrated, as he is a student of the game and he helps ECW immensely.





i liked the ppv… “finally” a hardy is a wwe champ!! bout time!
is it really necessary for hbk to bring up the h.s. gym wrestling? seems like a shot to me.. specially since flair was involved in the show. michaels needs to stop jumping back and forth all the time from heel to face and vice-versa.. one or the other, please
