WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP WRESTLING
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~ WCW is still negotiating with Dennis Rodman to have 
him appear at the Bash
at the Beach Pay-Per View this summer.  Rodman was at 
the Bash last year and
reportedly had a lot of fun.  Rodman is hesitant to 
sign an official agreement
though.  Because of all the publicity Mike Tyson is 
getting with the WWF,
Rodman wants to be part of the WWF.  Dennis believes 
that the WWF would better
suit his style.  

~~ This may be a reason for many WCW stars being upset 
with their current jobs
in WCW.  In addition to all the egos and surplus of 
talent, many stars are
upset at the number of dates they have to work this 
year.  Many stars that
jumped from the WWF to WCW jumped because they would be 
receiving more money
and they would be working fewer dates a year.  In 1998, 
WCW has 300 house
shows scheduled.  The WWF has about the same amount. 
 This is upsetting many
WCW mid-carders who have to work most of the cards.  

~~ As most of you know the WCW Spring Stampede PPV is 
in jeopardy.  This past
week at the WCW Saturday Night Tapings, Randy Savage 
injured himself.  The MRI
came out saying that Savage has a torn ACL in his knee. 
 This is horrible
timing for Savage to get injured as most of WCW's 
angles are going to revolve
around him.  This injury is very similar to Marc 
Mero's.  Savage will require
surgery.  Sting is also injured.  Sting has suffered an 
injured hip but it is
not a serious injury and Sting will continue to 
wrestle.  Save still wants to
wrestle at the PPV though.  Whether his doctors will 
allow him to or not is a
different question.  The WCW Hotline is already 
reporting that Savage will not
be able to compete.  They are hinting that JJ Dillon 
will be choosing someone
to face Sting.  The most likely choices are Ric Flair, 
Lex Luger, Chris
Benoit, and Curt Hennig.

~~ This Friday, Slamboree tickets go on sale at the 
Centrum Center in 
Worcester, Massachusetts. On Friday from 2-4 p.m. 
you'll be able to meet 
and greet "Mean" Gene Okerlund, Curt Hennig, and the 
Nitro Girls at the
Solomon Pond Mall. [Credit- Conrad 
Thompson/Sharpshooter]

~~ Hogan's nephew, Horace, has been in the Power Plant 
for several months 
now and has worked a Nitro dark match since he's been 
training with WCW. 
He even did a few cards in Japan earlier this year. 
Anyway, I hear he 
was at the Orlando tapings with Raven as a part of the 
Flock. So look 
for him soon. [Credit- Conrad Thompson/Sharpshooter] 

~~ It is no secret that Kevin Nash and Scott Hall want 
to get out of WCW.  X-
Pac (Sean Waltman) made that known on this past 
Monday's RAW.  Bischoff has
stated that he will not give either of these men their 
release.  Hall is
currently in rehab and Nash is currently in the 
spotlight and will be teaming
with Hogan at Spring Stampede.  The only way for Nash 
to get his release from
WCW is to, I believe, shoot on Hogan during a match 
causing Hogan to get irate
and get Bischoff to fire Nash.  We all know what Hogan 
wants, Hogan gets.  

~~ Neither Jimmy hart nor Disco Inferno will be in "Man 
on the Moon".  "Man on
the Moon" is a movie about Andy Kauffman.  You might 
remember him from the
early 80's when he feuded with Jerry Lawler and they 
had that famous
confrontation on the David Letterman show.  It has been 
rumored for the past
fer weeks that Jimmy Hart will be in the movie and that 
Disco Inferno would be
playing the role of Jerry Lawler.  This is false as 
confirmed by Jerry Lawler
on an interview on the "Get in the Ring" radio show on 
WGBB.  Jerry Lawler
hinted that he would be playing himself. 

~~  I have gotten word that the Ultimate Warrior has 
signed with WCW.  I'm not
sure if this is 100% true but it comes from one of my 
most reliable sources.
The deal that he signed is much like Piper's in that he 
will appear on a few
PPV's and a couple of Nitro's here and there.  We 
should see him sometime mid-
summer.

~~ The WCW Hotline is reporting that Bill Goldberg will 
be getting his own T-
Shirt that says "Who's next?".  A Thunder T-Shirt will 
also be coming out soon
It is much like Nitro's merchendise and the Thunder 
merchendise will be called
"Thunderwear"

~~ This past Friday, the mayor of Indianapolis declared 
April 3 "Bobby Heenan
Day"

~~ There is talk of Piper changing his ways now that 
WCW is going to have to
make a lot of storyline changes.  Savage was scheduled 
to win the belt at
Spring Stampede causing the NWO to break up into 
seperate groups.  Now there
is talk that Roddy Piper may turn NWO.  

~~ A couple of groups are going to be surfacing in WCW 
shortly.  In addition
to the NWO and Raven's Flock, it seems that we will be 
seeing the return of
the 4 Horsemen and the debut of the Canadian Calvalry. 
 The Horsemen are
rumored to comprise of Bill Goldberg, Dean malenko, Lex 
Luger, and Ric Flair.
They should be managed by Arn Anderson.  The Canadian 
Calvalry should comprise
of Chris Benoit, Jim Neidhart, the British Bulldog, and 
Bret Hart.

WORLD WRESTLING FEDERATION

~~ For all of you who saw WrestleMania last week, it 
was obvious that Shawn
Michaels was in tremendous pain during his match with 
Stone Cold Steve Austin.
Michaels had a bad back even before the match started. 
 After the match,
Michaels was taken to a local hospital and was 
diagnosed with a few ruptured
disks in his back.  The WWF is hoping that Michaels can 
return by Summerslam.
Shawn will be avoiding surgery and is going to try and 
heal his back with
therapy and rest.  

~~ The early numbers for the WrestleMania buyrate was 
at a 1.8 but the latest
number to be thrown around is a 2.3

~~ Word is that the Nassau Coliseum RAW Taping on April 
14 is going to be
huge.  There are a lot of surprises planned.  I'll try 
to have some of them in
for next week.

~~ The WWF is looking to sign some more Japanese stars 
in the future.  This
past Monday on RAW, we saw 3 new Japanese 
Lightheavyweight stars. They will be
known as Klub Kamikaze in the WWF.  

~~ Mike Tyson will definitely be involved with the WWF 
in the future.  There
is talk of having Tyson have a special role in this 
year's Summerslam which
will originate from Madison Square Garden.  

~~ The DX ads say that the members of DX are: Shawn 
Michaels, HHH, Chyna, X-
Pac, and the New Age Outlaws.  Word is that Shawn 
michaels will wrestle HHH at
next year's Wrestlemania.

~~ Earl Hebner is recovering from a brain aneurysm and 
is expected to return
to work in a couple of months.

~~ Vader should be back around the time of the 
Unforgiven In Your House PPV.  

~~ The WWF has signed two Canadian superstars.  They 
are Sexton Hardcastle and
Christian Cage.  They wrestled in Canada as a tag team 
and they will be
wrestling singles matches in the WWF.

~~ Val Venis is set to feud with Goldust when he debuts 
in the WWF.  Venis'
gimmick is that of a porn star.  He will debut after 
the IYH.  He is known in
other parts of the world as Sean Morely or Steele.

~~ There is talk of turning Cactus Jack heel and having 
him feud with Terry
Funk.  The WWF has a few hardcore matches in mind and 
who better than these
two hardcore greats to put those matches on. 

~~ Steven Regal has signed with the WWF.  Regal will 
make his debut sometime
in May and will be known as Steven Regal since he 
trademarked that name
himself.  Rumor has it that he will be managed by Bill 
Dundee.

~~ Some UFC stars are looking to follow in the 
footsteps of Dan Severn and Ken
Shamrock and are looking to sign with the WWF.

~~ The WWF will be releasing a new Sable T-shirt in the 
near future. The 
front of the shirt is from the recent swimsuit edition 
of the RAW 
Magazine. [Credit- Conrad Thompson/Sharpshooter]

~~ Sean Waltman is going to be trying to recruit Rey 
Mysterio Jr. to come to
the WWF once Mysterio's contract is up in June.  It is 
no secret that Mysterio
and Nash are good friends behind the scenes and Waltman 
will be trying to get
Mysterio to consider the WWF's offer and take it.  

~~ The WWF is trying to put an offer on the table to 
get Abdullah the Butcher.
They want Abdullah to come in to help their new 
hardcore image that they are
trying to get

EXTREME CHAMPIONSHIP WRESTLING
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~ Last night at a house show in Buffalo, NY, Rob Van 
Dam won the TV Title
from Bam Bam Bigelow.  Full results are in the Other 
News and Notes Section.

~~ ECW is trying to get the SHeepherders to be at the 
May 3 PPV.  You might
know the Sheepherders better by the name of the 
Bushwhackers.  The last I
heard of them, they were wrestling in Puerto Rico.  

~~ ECW officials are going to make fans attending 
Wrestlepalooza and sitting
in the first five rows sign a special release form. 
 The release form is
needed so that ECW cannot be blamed if somebody in the 
first five rows gets
injured.

Wrestling From My Easy Chair by The Grand Poobah
<A HREF="mailto: poobah78@aol.com">Poobah78@aol.com</A>
Wrestlemania has always been the culmination of the 
wrestling year at the WWF.
It is the one PPV or big event where matches end 
decisively, and angles are
either tied up or started. Old guys leave, and new guys 
come in.

For two nights, the WWF shined. You can't tell me that 
with all the WWF has to
offer (which isn't as deep as WCW), that the WWF didn't 
kick major booty. And
considering that the newest angle WCW has to offer is 
Major Booty (aka
Beefcake), the WWF outdid themselves. We got:

A) DX getting screwed by Tyson.
B) A new champion (give me a hell-yeah!)
C) Twice the dumpsters.
D) The LOD 2000       AND
E) Sable showing that she does have an upper body (And 
no one arrested her for
doing a power bomb!) Hey, wait a minute....you don't 
think that was a swipe at
WCW, letting Sable (forgive me...a girl) do a power 
bomb to mock that WCW
angle, do you????? (NUDGE-NUDGE, WINK-WINK).

And if that wasn't enough, on Monday we got:
F) Sean Waltman (Six-punk).
G) Dan Severn    and
H) Vince McMahon, for the first time, really getting 
over as a heel.....and
getting clocked with a stunner.

By the way, someone on the ProNews staff wondered aloud 
last week...."If they
keep the name 6, they need 2 new members...like the 
NAO. Gee who (grand
poobah) could have (grand poobah) said THAT? Me, of 
course! Personally, I
think that the New Look, LOD-2000 should have been the 
ones....it would have
brought them back to what they were in the AWA in the 
80's, they could have
feuded with both Jack/Funk and the NAO. Now we'll get 
them feuding with the
(gol-lee) Godwins. Oh Vince, you were thisclose to 
getting it perfect!

I also love the new WWF attitude commercial. They had 
to can the old one,
since they dumped Ahmed Johnson. In it, the old guys 
reflect on the new guys.
Gorilla looks pretty bad, though. It is very nostalgic. 
One criticism, though:
they should identify the speakers. Many kids don't know 
all of the
individuals.

Finally, its trivia time. Congrats to Alf316 who was 
the first to say that the
1-2-3 Kid's 2 tag partners who won the belt with him 
were Marty Jannety and
Bob Holly. Special note goes to Bigdogjr who identified 
the matches and dates,
and Drigieboo who pointed out to me that he held the 
belt for a combined 8
days.
This weeks question: 20/20 once did a feature on 
wrestling. A reporter asked a
wrestler if the sport was fake. he got slapped in the 
ears for it. Who was the
reporter, and who was the wrestler?

Thanks to all....see you next week.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
MY TESTIMONY by FaceDiCulo
<A HREF="">FaceDiCulo@aol.com</A>
Well well well, what a last few days for the WWF. With 
Wrestlemania 14, and
the following nights RAW, we witnessed some of the best 
WWF action of the last
few years...

First and foremost...We Have A New Champion...yawn. 
After more than a year of
Obsceneties, Profanities, Stunners and flat out bad 
attitude, Steve Austin
finally was rewarded with the WWF title. In my opinion 
the Toughest SOB has
become the most tiresome and annoying SOB in the WWF. 
His push carried on too
long, and I've seen enough of hi stunning everyone from 
Jobbers to Slaughter
to the HBK to McMahon. Enough is enough! All this crap 
with him being arrested
and whatnot, what a waste of time. Now on Monday's Raw 
there is something
about McMahon forcing Austin to change his image, which 
of course Austin
doesn't do. But he does stun a few people, give a few 
fingers and is on his
way. Vince, I think its about time you gave Austin a 
screwjob, and that we
have a new champion (anyone but Owen or the Undertaker) 
sooner than later.

Speaking of "screwjobs" A get well soon to Earl 
Hebner...anyone who screw's
Bret Hart (even if it was in the context of a script) 
is a friend of mine.

As for Mike Tyson...he held up pretty well his 
appearance, I was a little
upset that he didn't have more involvent in the match. 
Nothing but multiple
crotch chops, I believe he threw Austin in the ring 
once, making a count i
didn't know he had the authority to make, and Striking 
the HBK. It wasn't the
biggest part, but it was well played. With Tyson's 
microscopic brain, if you
tried to give him a more difficuly part, he would be 
liable to screw things
up...he's not a smart man.

DX...first off hopefully Michaels' injury will heal 
quickly, and I hope he
stays in DX. 
Im relieved that they didn't have HHH lose to Owen, 
because Owen deserves
nothing. It's good to see Waltman, or X-Pac or whatever 
the hell they're
calling him now. And the New Age Outlaws regained the 
tag belts and joined DX.
Well, werent Mr. Dog and Mr. Ass kinda "unofficial" 
Members for the last few
months...they along with DX did join in the beatings of 
both LOD, Owen and
Austin...it was inevitable that they'd become 
degenerates. 

Another Quick point on the NAO...In an article I wrote 
last week, I spoke
about Vince's affection with tag teams consisting of 
Gunn's and Jobbers. My
statement has become a reality...WWF Tag Champs: Billy 
and the Road Dog, NWA
Champs: Bart and Bob Holly. 

In another one of those too-long, played out angles, 
the Undertaker is
scheduled to fight Kane again in an "Inferno Match" 
Something involving
hellfire and brimstone. Taker won the last battle, but 
memo to Kane: It was
not cool the way you nearly killed Pete Rose, It will 
be cool if you nearly
Kill your Brother.

I was surprised by how exciting the Mixed-Tag match 
was. It's great to see
Mero flying high once again...but Sable, powerbomb, 
TKO, Mero you could get
some lessons from that girl.

Ken Shamrock had to screw himself...again. All I can 
really say, is that he's
starting to remind me of Lex Luger when he became a 
good guy "Real American"
"Lex Express" and whatnot. He was always in the big 
feud or main event, but
when it came to holding a title he always screwed 
himself. 

Lastly on the WWF, about Jeff Jarrett. I wish he could 
have been presented
better at WM, he truly is a great wrestler. All we saw 
was him with that
Gennifer Flowers lady. Was he in the Battle Royal (As 
soon as they showed LOD
coming out with Sunny it was like...no duh they're 
gonna win)? He could have
faced Farooq, or even Steve Blackman or Flash Funk (uh 
then again maybe not)
Maybe if they could have brought in Severn to face 
Jarrett that would have
been good. Oh Well.

One more thing, about Ratings...I believe a few of you 
have brought this up
before, but the WWF really should consider it. The 
reason why they don't beat
Nitro in ratings, is because most of the time, they are 
Taped. Why would I
bother to watch if i could come here, get the results, 
and occupy my time with
something else. I mean, Nitro's aren't even 
entertaining, if RAW was Live more
often, ratings would soar past Nitro.

All in all, a good week for the WWF, as for WCW, it 
continues to make me wanna
puke. Why bother ordering a PPV, because every match, 
or a altercation you
wanna see is bound to be shown on a Nitro or a Thunder. 
Usual Sting-Luger
Hall-Savage crap..Hogan w/Beefcake prematurely 
fighting Piper hell, at least
it cost me nothing. Of all the crud at WCW, the only 
thing missing at
Nitro...Sting did not descend from the 
rafters...Schiavone did not scream like
a 3 year old "Yes! Its Sting! Its Sting! Take that 
Hogan! Take that NWO!" My
god, he's even worse than Good 'ol JR. I miss Vince in 
the booth, JR makes a
good analyst, but he doesn't make a good lead guy, he 
whines too much. 

Two last WCW tidbits before I go...it appears they're 
giving Goldberg a new
punching bag...for the Next 6 weeks I thing Goldberg 
will be fighting Saturn
almost every night...of course Im exaggerating, but you 
get the picture.
Finally, I want to see more interviews of Bret Hart. 
Sure, he is probably my
least favorite wrestler of all time. But his interviews 
are so stupid, its
funny. Famous quote's like "When I go up AGAYNST you, 
in THE Summerslam", and
"That Stinking Hyena" and "My Mother is from Nassau 
Colisseum" Little stupid
quotes like that is what makes Bret Hart the guy I love 
to hate.

That will do it for this edition of My Testimony, let 
me know what ya
think...You're either with me, or against me...That'll 
do it, I am outta
here....
