There's a report on the new stating the following:
Joey Styles was told outright to make no more Twitter posts talking about politics. While it was noted that some in the company loved what he said since most in WWE are very conservative, there was said to be a lot of heat on Styles from the corporate side for fear of an advertiser backlash.
So let me get this right, Joey Styles voices his opinion on his own Twitter page on his own time, and the WWE is telling him not to do it? Correct me if I'm wrong but this is America and Joey Styles can say whatever the hell he wants in any forum that he wants. For crying out loud the WWE should be encouraging people to voice their opinions not worrying about the advertising dollars (particuarlly when the ratings for RAW without commericals were through the roof compared to when RAW aired with commericals). But no, the WWE, which is supposedly conservative, is acting more and more like the Obama adminstration in wanting to control what people can say. Talk about a bunch of bull-honkey
I'm re-watching The Great American Bash and just re-watched the god awful peformance of Michelle McCool. Folks, Victoria, Trish Stratus, hell even Kimona Wanalaya couldn't carry that clown who blew her way to the top of the Women's roster. Watching Michelle's performances have been more painful than watching the WOW - Women of Wrestling promotion ten years ago. Difference is, that those girls were learning as they went, Michelle has been with the WWE for over 3 years now and she has not do anything other than make wrestling fans cringe when she's put into a match, not to mention she lowers the quality of ability of whoever she's in the ring with (look at Melina's matches with every other Diva in the WWE and then look at the **** she had to deal with by beingin the ring with McCool). I'm just begging the WWE to bring back Luna Vachon, Ivory, Molly Holly, Madusa, or even let Gail Kim stretch the woman who had an affair with Chris Benoit every way possible.
And another thing, anyone find it really interesting that Gail Kim was suddenly moved to RAW after looking like she would be the next big challenger for the Women's strap on the blue brand? Coincidence? I think not!
So the WWE tried to force Candice Michelle to go to the ring before she got medical clearance and then when she got clearance they release her? That makes a lot of sense... NOT!
But seeing as how Candice's last blog here in the WWE Universe was deleted by the WWE Gestapo, the good folks at Lords of Pain posted Candice's blog at www.lordsofpain.net/news/wwe/2848.html
And seeing as how I love to rock the boat, stir the poat, caause a little havoc and just be me: I'll post what she wrote that was deleted and then reposted elsewhere here:

Late last week, a rumor came out about former WWE Diva Victoria that said she was having an affair with Chris Benoit in 2006 and 2007. And what's real interesting is that this particuarly rumor came out as an e-mail that was sent to a wrestling news tabloid site that posted it a few hours before Victoria's first match for TNA. I smell a rat within the WWE, and since the same posting listed another Diva in it that stressed that this other Diva was not doing the hunka chunka with Benoit, I'm going to come right out and say I think that Michelle McCool had an affair with Chris Benoit because she was the Diva that was being defended in that posting. And trust me, the flat out reputation of McCool is enough to make Jenna Jameson blush. Hey we are talking about the Diva who both launched a verbal and type-al attacks on Victoria after Victoria broke her fractured her nose in late 2007 and who tried to school Natalya Neidhart and who happened to have an well documented affair with Mark Calaway. Boy it's so much fun to point out what everything is really pointing too.
This past weekend, World Wrestling Entertainment leaked a story saying Batista had suffered a biceps tear. Their story was later changed to a torn tendon in his left biceps and that it was not a full fledged muscle tear. The webmaster of his official website, www.Demon-Wrestling.com, soon acknowledged his injury, confirming it as a torn tendon.
The webmaster wrote: "We originally thought Dave had a torn muscle (he's been hurt for around 2-3 weeks), but this has now been confirmed as a torn tendon."
However, WWE.com would say differently. According to their report concerning Batista's injury, he suffered a completely torn left biceps requiring surgery that will keep him out of action for at least four months - not a torn tendon. A full fledged muscle tear is much more serious than a tendon tear, so something's clearly not adding up. If he did indeed suffer a torn tendon like his official website is saying, the amount of ring time he would miss would be considerably less.
******
Now to add my two cents to this:
This raises a lot of eyebrows over what the truth. The injury was said to have occured over three weeks ago, but Batista has been on RAW, Pay-Per-Views and live events without any sort of tape on his arm and also was not showing any signs of an injury. If it's as serious as people are claiming, Batista would not have worked the match with Randy Orton Extreme Rules. If it was something minor, then Batista should've been taped up to prevent the injury from worsening, thus pointing all signs towards the WWE covering up something fishy. Add into this the report that the WWE creative was handed a list of wrestlers NOT to generate ideas for pushes the levels of suspicions even higher!
