Pre-beating the poo poo out of Vince with a chair at WrestleMania a few years ago, he was still carrying some stuff with him, but I think that also tied in with his family being batshit crazy.

You're in ohio right? If there's a Half Price Books near you, I always see copies there for $5 or $6. That's where I got mine.

I got my copy of Bret's book at 24.99 and its one of the few book purchases where I feel the full price was totally justified.

Yeah, I bought Bret's book 6 years ago and I still enjoy opening it to read a few stories every now and then.

Sunday's Observer news update posted:--I hate to say this, but there are a lot of things going around that indicate this coming week will be one of the biggest news weeks of the year. The first two may not be done deals yet. Story No. 3 is a lock and will happen, which is Thursday's announcement of the WWE network number.

There is a thread on the F4W board about a TNA meeting in Nashville that Dave popped into to say he was looking to confirm information. Maybe Inoki bought the company.

"Biggest news of the year" sounds like something major and unpredictable to me. Carano and Sting have been considered done deals for months if not longer. Sting signing with WWE to come in and have one match (likely) and Carano naming the amount of money required to get her rear end kicked by Ronda Rousey don't feel like major stories. Could be either of them, cause who knows what criteria Meltzer is using, but I'd guess something else.

Well, Devitt and Steen have apparently signed with WWE but there's been no official announcement yet and it's not gonna be that either.

KENTA's signing would've been a bigger deal than those two and that was hardly "biggest news of the year" worthy.

No signing on Earth would warrant the kind of language Dave is using. It's not a talent signing. Don't be ridiculous.

I don't think it'd be Gina because Meltzer has been expecting that for months now. Anyway JR tweeted that things are bad between TNA and Spike so that's it.
