Which Women Wrestlers Has CM Punk Dated?, The Rock Explains The Meaning Of 'Jabroni'

AppId is over the quota AppId is over the quota By Daniel Pena | April 17, 2012 | Comments

-- The latest issue of The Wrestler (available at PWI-Online.com) has a feature on CM Punk revealing elements of his past including the origin of his ring name, why he left TNA Wrestling, the meaning of some of his tattoos and even which women wrestlers he has dated. Regarding the women's wrestlers Punk has been romantically linked to, the magazine writes:

"We all know women love the bad boys. Though Punk isn't really a bad boy in the traditional sense given the way he lives his life, he looks the part. Whatever the reason, he has been romantically linked to several Divas and Knockouts, including Daffney, Traci Brooks, Maria Kanellis, Amy "Lita" Dumas, and most recently, Beth Phoenix. What is Punk's type?"

-- Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson has addressed the meaning behind one of his most famous catchphrases, "Jabroni."

When asked of the meaning of the word Tuesday on Twitter by NFL player Chad Ochocinco, he wrote, "Jabroni was a term I started using to describe a phony, goof, punk or a ham & egger. #NoCandyAssJabronis."

-- WWE has updated the logo for their Over the Limit pay-per-view?see here. This year's show takes place on May 20 at PNC Arena in Raleigh, North Carolina.

Angle of challenges Nicholson, Steiner comments on TNA Lockdown, Godderz updated

-Scott Steiner wrote the following on Twitter on the presence of TNA Lockdown:

"The ppv Sunday was a crowd of 2 500-3 000 who had lot of gifts, whereas that TNA is based in Nashville, which is really bad, along with the horrible rating Thursday, Hogan b - hoff n pritchard will sink the Tna, both b - hoffs received zero response in their entries.

-Talent development TNA and former reality TV star Jessie Godderz won the OVW Tag Team Titles this past week with partner Rudy Switchblade. Godderz is presented in the new issues of the planet Muscle and exercise & health magazines.

-Independent wrestler Devon Nicholson, who is currently pursuing WWE for discrimination, is angry with Kurt Angle and issued a challenge. Here is what he wrote and his video:

"I am a former Open winner Canadian National Freestyle Wrestling Champion National Team winner of trial, grappling and am currently the alternate for the Canada to the Greco Roman Wrestling." I beat all the wrestlers how places in the top 4 in the Championships of the University of CIS in 2011 (I am not at the University so I could not competition in these.)

I also have a 10 years pro wrestler. 1996 US Olympic Champion Kurt Angle recently made a parody of amateur wrestling. He went to television to the sources of information across the world by saying he is back in training and would compete in the U.S. Olympic trials and would make at least a replacement. It took press outside the United States amateur athletes who really are competing in the trials and the grave. After a year until the week build last Angle said it has withdrawn due to a partially torn MCL this custom need surgery but he always fought professionally last night in a large Lockdown PPV of TNA Wrestling match.

Kurt Angle has offended many me. He did a parody of fight amateur and made pro wrestlers resemble of Wimps I am sick of this guy's mouth, running do not step amateur wrestling seriously and pro wrestlers like they have it easy. I present him a true match. I have faces Olympic champion Daniel Igali Canadian in my last year of high school and held my own but I wans't angry with him and I am also much more technical now if it will not have it easy if he is man enough to agree. After so-called training for a year it must be prepared to accept a match.

On a side note I completely tore my MCL in a tournament in early November but still kept training and competition. I'm going to surgery until I 100% know I turn for the London Games as substitute. It is not not a totally debilitating. Angle had a very serious injury following before the Atlanta games but still fired. It is very inspiring. Now it is showing that it is not having the hart or meet more. »

Mick Foley Blogs on Dean Ambrose, said supporters of the WWE has the premises

-The rivalry between Mick Foley and Dean Ambrose continues online but according to Foley, it's over. Foley has written a new blog on Ambrose on its official site. Here is part of what he wrote:

"Let me state for the record that I only talked about the prospect of FCW Dean Ambrose three times." After his match on a house show WWE to Long Island, I went my way to tell him that I had enjoyed his game. The skills and qualities of the unique qualities, he has could make him a force to be reckoned with somewhere down the line. He has supporters in noble places that feel that it could be a major asset to WWE for a decade in the future. I am also said that its interviews ("promos" as they are called) are compelling, intelligent and emotional; each bit is as good as the guys top to WWE.

My second conversation with Mr Ambrose has a bit of attention. I know there is a lot of speculation as to the nature of this conversation. For me, this is what person wanted it; a shoot, a work or somewhare in the workplace - as almost all the persuasive pieces in sports-entertainment are ultimately.

I am much more concerned with my third conversation with the guy. Look, Ive charged from time to time to take things in the company a little too seriously. Maybe I do. But as this old sailor-man, "I am what I am, and this is what I am." After all these years, there are things that just bothers me. Don't forget that promo "Cane Dewey" of 1995 that so many people are still look for? It is in fact a huge place in my heart, when my wife impressed on me just how sick is for any fan to a sign advocating the beat (even jokingly) of my 3 year-old girl.

It is the immediate feeling that I had when I read did the Dean Ambrose tweet that mentions his dream to see me is no longer able to make a 10 cent coin in the world of wrestling - with a particularly nasty reference to how he wanted to see my house repossesed and hungry children. Perhaps the 1995 Cactus Jack would have cut a promo on the guy. 2102 Mick Foley wonders just what would something say something so stupid, without pity and ignorant. I felt that Dean Ambrose had crossed a line that should not be crossed, then benefits before the Smackdown of Hampton, Virginia to ask and tell him to stop please cross a line that I was not comfortable with. Ric Flair was asked once to a similar review of me before a memorable promo, that we have shared in New Jersey in 2006. Of course, I have honored his request. It is a company built on trust and respect. I thought that Dean including Ambrose. But less than a day after my request, I have seen that my children once more were the subject of his tweets - a reference to how I could think differently about something if my children were in wheelchairs. Perhaps I would have cut a heck of a promo on this subject in 1995. Seventeen years later, I wanted to just get the f - k far the whole scenario. It's not fun, it is not sharp. It just sucks.

Sports Entertainment must involve a certain amount of respect and trust. It is quite obvious Dean Ambrose have no respect for me, my requests, or what I have done in the world of wrestling. So I can not put the slightest amount of trust in him. Someone asked if I feel better after concussion I speak of in this December 2010 promo TNA Impact with Flair? I feel not too much better. I tend to have two types of days when it's muted, underwater feeling I speak of in this promo - bad and worse still. I am simply not the same guy that took 11 shots of Chair of the rock in 1999. I was not long that guy. Given my history of concussions, I had to be a moron to put my future in the hands of someone that I do not trust. I may have another decent game left in me. If if it is with a guy as Dolph Ziggler, who could be the best worker in the company and need a little something to the world of the WWE see how talented he really is. Or a guy as the Miz - one of the best heels of this generation. Say what you want about Miz, but the guy is damn good at what he made.

But Dean Ambrose? No. I have not the power I did once in the business, but I still have the power to say no to the things that just simply seems wrong. Like trying to put Dean Ambrose on the map of the WWE. A few weeks, it seemed to be an interesting challenge. Now, it appears as an insult. A few weeks ago it seemed like advanced stuff. Now, it seems fair to bulls - t. It is a very good talent. It has supporters in places. That they wrestle him. Maybe they can put him on the map of the WWE. Good luck. »

What Happened After RAW Went Off The Air, Sheamus Booed, More Off-Camera Notes

AppId is over the quota AppId is over the quota Thanks to www.wrestling-inc.blogspot.com  readers Andy Vale and Ashudeep for sending in these notes from tonight's RAW Supershow in London, England:

The dark match after RAW went off the air was CM Punk defending the WWE Championship against Chris Jericho. The match ended in a disqualification when Daniel Bryan came out to interfere while Punk was attempting to hit the GTS on Jericho. Sheamus came out and nailed Bryan with a Brogue kick.

Cody Rhodes then came out, followed by the Big Show and Alberto Del Rio. Randy Orton was out next. Bryan took off to the back as the faces nailed the remaining heels with their finishers.

The crowd was hot for the event, with "YES!" and "Daniel Bryan" chants throughout the night. The crowd popped big when Bryan dodged the Brogue kick during the show, and booed Sheamus when he kicked Bryan during the aftermath of the dark match main event.

The crowd also really liked Brock Lesnar's promo, and chanted "We want JR" during one of the breaks.

After Cena lost his match to Lord Tensai, he was helped to the back by referees as the crowd sang, "Na Na Na Na. Na Na Na Na. Hey Hey Hey. Goodbye!"

Biggest Pops:
Daniel Bryan
CM Punk
"Fish and Chips"

Most Heat:
Vickie Guerrero
John Laurinaitis

WWE Live Event Results From Geneva, Switzerland (4/15) - Sheamus Vs. Bryan, "Oui!" Chants

Thanks to www.wrestling-inc.blogspot.com reader Stevie Grieve for sending in these results from yesterday's SmackDown live event in Geneva, Switzerland:

Lilian Garcia enters the area looking absolutely stunning and thanks the Geneva crowd for coming. She says it's the first time that they have visited Geneva and hoped the crowd would have a great time.

Positives - it was a good show with lots of action, and only one Cody Rhodes talking segment to wind up the crowd for his match.

Negatives - I would've liked to have seen Ryback, Drew McIntyre and a replacement for Christian (who was injured) for the advertised triple threat championship main event.

The Great Khali vs. Jinder Mahal - Khali wins

Entrance reaction to Khali was average until he came out, which caused a bit of a stir - on TV you don't see how massive he actually is. The match was mostly Khali posturing to the crowd to get them going as Jinder laid on the floor after receiving a big punch, throw or kick. Khali won after about 5 minutes of punishing Mahal, to the crowd's satisfaction.

William Regal and Tyson Kidd vs. Hunico and Camacho - Regal and Kidd win

Regal and Hunico started the match, and Regal dominated the opening minutes, who then threw Hunico towards the ropes, who ran across the ring like 10 times with Regal resting against the ropes to the crowds amusement. Camacho stopped Hunico and the match continued. Tyson Kidd entered to a big pop and he impressed with a good variation of mat-based, high-risk submission moves. Camacho lost the match to Regal, who won with his suplex type finisher. Regal ended the match by thanking the crowd and saying that without the crowd, there would be no WWE and he left Tyson Kidd in the ring afterward to soak in some of the applause.

AJ Lee vs. Natalya - AJ wins

Hornswoggle was appointed the referee and came down to cheers from the kids in the crowd. He jumped around the ring and kissed Lilian's hand. Natalya entered first and as she entered the ring, she threw her jacket at Lilian Garcia to the crowd's disgust, and was booed for the whole match. AJ entered but nobody really made any reaction. Natalya gained the better of the opening exchanges and after Hornswoggle counted 4 pinning sequences that were all rolled through, he went for a rest in the corner. Finally Natalya had AJ in the Sharpshooter but AJ crawled to the ropes. As Natalya complained to Hornswoggle, AJ rolled her up for the win.

After the match, Natalya went around the crowd and was gesturing a lot and generally being a heel. Lilian Garcia chucked Natalya's jacket in her face as she left to go up the ramp. Crowd loved it and Lilian got a chant.

Alberto Del Rio vs. Ezekiel Jackson - Del Rio wins

Robert Rodriguez announced Alberto Del Rio to the ring and he was well received, lots of boo's, but lots of cheers from the older crowd. He looked in good condition after his injury.
Ezekiel Jackson was announced as his opponent and again, like Khali, he gained an average response but this improved as the crowd saw how big he actually is. Jackson won the opening exchanges flattening ADR in the corner with big clotheslines, but ADR countered with arm based attacks. He won with a cross arm-bar after around 3 minutes. This was more of a fitness test for Del Rio than anything.

AppId is over the quota AppId is over the quota

Source: F4WOnline

- There were rumors over the weekend that WWE has made some releases but they won't be announced until everything is finalized and the talents are notified.

- No stipulation is expected to be announced for the Brock Lesnar vs. John Cena match at WWE's Extreme Rules pay-per-view.

- As we noted before, TNA requested that WWE send them a Superstar to appear on one of their DVD's in exchange for allowing Ric Flair to appear at the 2012 WWE Hall of Fame ceremony. We don't know exactly who that WWE Superstar is yet but talk is that it's someone that has history with Sting, Hulk Hogan and Ric Flair.

The Bella Twins Comment On Rumors, More On Their Expected Departure From WWE

Source: F4WOnline

Sources within WWE and outside of WWE have confirmed that as of now, The Bella Twins are scheduled to leave the company when their contracts expire at the end of April. Speculation is that they just want to move on to other things. The Twins wrote the following last night during RAW:

"Don't believe what you hear #! Tune into WWE Superstars this week you won't be disappointed ;) Besos! B&N #WWE

"Don't believe what you hear #BellaArmy How about that Cena and Brock fight?!! Wooaaahhhhhh! #RAW"

They're also campaigning for Nikki Bella as the next WWE Divas Champion after she picked up a non-title win over Beth Phoenix on Friday's SmackDown.

The Bellas are being advertised for an autograph signing on May 19th at Frank & Sons in California and are billed as "Brianna and Nicole, formerly The Bella Twins in WWE." They are also booked for a convention in New Jersey but not advertised by the promoter yet as WWE doesn't allow its talents at their conventions.

WWE Mentions UFC On RAW, Possible Legends House Announcement, John Cena

AppId is over the quota AppId is over the quota

Source: F4WOnline

- John Cena wrote the following after last night's RAW Supershow in Washington, DC:

"Interesting #raw tonight. Make sure u check out @Syfy #DreamMachines tomorrow after #smackdown"

Cena will be appearing on a future episode of Dream Machines, not the premiere tonight. The show debuts after WWE's live SmackDown special tonight on SyFy.

- Word at last week's RAW Supershow was that UFC was not to be mentioned on WWE TV or anywhere else. Something changed between last week and this week's show as Michael Cole first mentioned UFC on the USA Network before RAW hit the air last night. Cole and Lesnar both mentioned UFC by name during last night's broadcast.

- Speculation is that WWE may announce Legends House tonight at the live SmackDown where the entire cast will be in attendance. If nothing is announced for the reality show, that likely means that SyFy wasn't interested in carrying it.

WWE Superstar Debuts A New Look, Finlay's Future, AJ Lee Comments On Break-Up

 Finlay spoke with Wrestling101.com recently and said he will be working with Tajiri's new company in Japan. They are looking to launch in May. No official word yet on Finlay's WWE status but talk over WrestleMania 28 weekend was that he's back as an agent.

- WWE Diva AJ Lee is still recovering from Daniel Bryan breaking up with her on SmackDown but is getting ready for tonight's live show. She wrote on Twitter last night:

"Smackdown tomorrow. Perhaps I will put down this tub of mint chocolate chip ice cream & Alanis Morrissette cd, and do something productive."

Update On Lesnar's Last UFC Loss, UFC Title Fight In Limbo, Dana On Failed Drug Test, More

- As noted earlier this week, Alistair Overeem - the man who defeated Brock Lesnar in his last UFC fight - failed a surprise pre-fight drug test that he was given last week. FightLine.com reports that The Nevada State Athletic Commission, which administered the test, will not change Overeem's win over Lesnar from last year since this result had no effect on that decision. You can check out the full article by clicking here.

- Overeem was scheduled to face Junior dos Santos at UFC 146 next month for the UFC heavyweight championship, however that fight is in limbo. Overeem can ask for his "B" sample to be tested and if that clears, he could be granted a license to face dos Santos. According to FightLine.com, dos Santos will still defend his title at UFC 146, regardless of what happens with Overeem.

- As you could probably imagine, UFC President Dana White was absolutely livid at Overeem over the failed drug test, telling The Star Phoenix, "I am beyond pissed about this. I'm so (expletive) mad right now I can't even begin... How (expletive) stupid do you have to be? Seriously dumb.

"Anybody who's using (performance-enhancing drugs) right now is an absolute (expletive) moron. It's beyond - what's the word I'm looking for - it's beyond belief. It's beyond comprehension. You're an absolute moron, a brain-dead absolute (expletive) dummy. It goes beyond a guy having any common sense whatsoever."

-- Brock Lesnar may not be the only former MMA Champion to be joining the WWE roster. As we noted last week, The Wrestling Observer recently reported that former Strikeforce fighter King Mo Lawal is interested in going to WWE. Lawal had expressed interest in joining pro wrestling after his MMA career was over, and was even recruited by WWE's Gerald Brisco several years ago before deciding to try out for the Olympics. After failing to make the Olympic team, Lawal pursued MMA.

** SPOILERS ** WWE SmackDown Results For Tonight

AppId Thanks to Miriam, Joshua Koester and Brandon Hardig for the following WWE SmackDown spoilers from Tuesday's tapings in Orlando, Florida:

Dark Match

* Dean Ambrose defeated Ezekiel Jackson

SmackDown, Airing Friday:

* SmackDown opens with John Laurinaitis and David Otunga coming out. Laurinaitis brings out Teddy Long for one last moment. Laurinaitis shows off his new and improved SmackDown and rips into Long. Long wants to quit but Johnny won't let him. It appears Long is under Laurinaitis' control now.

* David Otunga and Mark Henry beat R-Truth in a handicap squash match.

* Randy Orton beat Kane in a No DQ match. They fought all around the ring and up the ramp, on the stage before coming back to the ring. The match sees some good spots and brawls with chairs. Orton wins with a RKO after putting Kane into an exposed turnbuckle.

* Ryback makes his debut and beats a local wrestler. Our correspondent said the former Skip Sheffield wasn't anything too special.

* Daniel Bryan comes out next with AJ Lee and he's pissed off. Fans chant for Bryan but he's not buying it. He tells them to quit mocking him. Lots of "YES!" chants from the crowd. Bryan won't budge and starts dissing AJ before he dumps her. AJ leaves the ring as the crowd chants "YES" and sings "goodbye" to her.

* New WWE Intercontinental Champion Big Show beat Heath Slater with a knockout punch. Cody Rhodes was on commentary for the match.

* More heat for John Laurinaitis. He arranges a face off between Sheamus and Alberto Del Rio before their match begins tonight so Sheamus can't use the Brogue Kick for another surprise win.

* Kelly Kelly comes out for the next match. She ends up distracting WWE Divas Champion Beth Phoenix, allowing Nikki Bella to get a 30 second win. This was apparently a non-title match.

* Backstage promo with Damien Sandow from FCW debuting. Apparently he's doing some kind of actor gimmick.

* Alberto Del Rio beat Sheamus by DQ when Sheamus got caught with a chair that Del Rio had tried to use on him. Del Rio now earns a future World Heavyweight Title shot. Del Rio leaves while Sheamus gets pissed and takes it out on the referee to end the show.
