Bills play at Tampa Bay that week.

Meh, $25 is a bit much to see washed-up fat wrestlers. I think I'll pass. I want ROH here again.

Why are you still posting?

News quickie, i'm sure Jack will post the full articles.. in short: Foley's coming back, HHH is gunning for Cena upon return (obviously) and TNA should have a presence outside the arena in Nashville when I go next week. I am taking my digital camera, so I should get some fairly good shots. I hope.

Ron "The Truth" Killings will be selling his CD outside the arena where Raw is being held, while Konnan asks for spare change and Newports. Meanwhile, Jeremy Borash and AJ Styles will be on the other side of town trying to score Oxys.

Sure, I'll post the full articles for everyone. Also, don't worry too much about taking photos at a live/TV taping. Sometimes it can be downright tedious. I tried taking photos at the SmackDown! taping, and it became a pain, so I just sat back and enjoyed the event. Unless, of course, you absolutely want pictures... go crazy.

So, this brings us to another supersized edition of the beloved CAG classic... Saucy Jack's rasslin' news! Brought to you by... The Best There Is, Was, and Ever Will Be: The Bret Hart Story... in stores in November!

One of the cards for WWE RAW's tour of Australia in October is headlined by HHH vs. John Cena for the World Title. Triple H is obviously expected to move into a feud with Cena by year's end, although it is not known if their television feud's commencement will coincide with this tour.

The number two match on that particular card is Ric Flair & Shawn Michaels against Kurt Angle & Edge.

From WWE.com:

Hardcore legend and three-time WWE Champion Mick Foley says he’s coming back to WWE television.

When reached Wednesday via cell phone between stops on his book tour, Foley confirmed that he has reached a deal in principle with WWE. He chose not to elaborate further, citing that he’d prefer to save the details until after the “formal arrangement” has been finalized.

“We have an agreement,” Foley said. “The papers are just being drawn up. We should be good on it.”

Foley first appeared in WWE in 1996. Thereafter, he furthered his reputation for putting his body on the line in many of WWE’s most memorable matches.

Since retiring from the full-time roster in 2000, Foley has become a bestselling author. He is currently amid an extensive book tour for his latest novel, “Scooter.”

As previously reported, the first Friday night SmackDown! show will feature Batista vs. JBL in a bullrope match for the title. It's likely there could be a title change in this match as Batista can lose without being pinned.

The tag team titles are pretty much a lock to change with MNM likely to take the belts from current champions Animal & Heidenreich.

An angle involving Randy Orton and Undertaker is also likely to air.

As reported earlier, Mick Foley is negotiating with WWE about an on-screen return.

Interestingly enough, Foley recently pitched an idea where he would take off on the "Rock 'n Sock Connection" where he'd play the role of the Rock and Eugene would be his sidekick to eventually set up a heel turn.

Nothing came of the idea.

WWE has officially announced on their website (in the live event section) that the RAW and SmackDown! taping in Biloxi and New Orleans next week has been postponed.

The RAW TV taping in Biloxi has been pulled from the site altogether, while the SmackDown! TV taping says "postponed" next to it.

TNA have signed former WWE Womens Champion Gail Kim. She will make her debut for the company very soon as they build up towards the huge Spike TV debut scheduled for 10/1.

Sources also indicate that former WWE Diva Jackie Gayda may be following in the footsteps of Kim and head to TNA too. However, this hasn't been confirmed yet. Also, TNA is likely to sign Molly Holly.

If you own any of Christian's "Captain Charisma" T-shirts, consider them collector's items as they won't be back. The reason all of the merchandise was pulled several weeks back is because WWE doesn't own the trademark on the phrase and whoever does has a "good legal standing" according to one source, which led to WWE pulling away on the merchandise. It's been said in recent weeks that Christian continues to be unhappy with the creative team, especially after any potential run with WWE World champion Batista was blown off with a one week deal on Smackdown.

CM Punk has arrived in Louisville, Kentucky and is working out in Ohio Valley Wrestling.

Personally, I think that's a great list. A couple of things could be added to that, and I would take out the Iron Man Match or clip it to make room for other things. However, there are some great matches on there. Perfect vs. Hart at SS 91... :)
 
[quote name='guyver2077']awesome hart vs goldberg is in[/QUOTE]

Not awesome for the Bret fans, though. This was the match that caused Bret to ultimately retire.

Seeing as Bret picked most of/all of the matches, I wonder why he would want that on there.
 
[quote name='CaseyRyback']so wait, they are going to have a whole segment on the screwjob and then not include the match on the set?[/QUOTE]

They are going to touch lightly on the screwjob on this set. It isn't the main, or an important, part of this set.

Anyway, the match is on the Confidential DVD. I guess Bret either doesn't want to dwell on the match or doesn't consider it that great. I guess he considers the Iron Man match to be great. Personally, I would have left it off. I believe it's featured on other WWE DVDs. If it's going to be in there, maybe they could have clipped it. That's over an hour that could be used for other matches/interviews.

With the large amount of matches on the DVDs, I'm concerned about the main interview portions. Bret shot over 7 hours worth of interview footage, and with all these matches on the disc, and other people's interviews, I'm wondering how long the main documentary is going to be. Shit, to be fair, Bret deserves more than 3 discs.
 
im actually watching goldberg vs sid on this months wwe jukebox and i noticed they edited in goldberg wwe song over his old one....how gay i hate when they do that shit
 
I am watching a show on History channel dealing with bombs dropped in WWII and they have Goldberg's theme playing. I guess his theme was stock music.

Oh, I forgot to check Jukebox today. Did they add anything good? I hate when they change the music, but it's excusable in the case of WCW. They don't have the rights to the music. Jimmy Hart does. However, they did work out a deal to license the music for some upcoming Best of WCW sets.

[quote name='GuilewasNK']I am watching a show on History channel dealing with bombs dropped in WWII and they have Goldberg's theme playing. I guess his theme was stock music.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, a lot of old themes come from music catalogs. For example, I remember hearing Chris Jericho's WCW theme during a lot of highlights on SportsCenter. Kidman's and Mysterio's WCW music is used a bit, too.

Yeah, Paisley is Sharmell, Booker T's wife.
 
Super-duper quick edition of Saucy Jack's rasslin' news! Brought to you by... The Ultimate Hour of Goodness on Comedy Central: Reno 911! ("They've got what it takes to be cops... badges.") and Stella ("Comedy dressed in a suit.").

Mick Foley chose WWE over a TNA debut. He was in talks with TNA. Foley will be back to wrestle a few matches, but will not be returning as a full-time superstar.

Big Show is asking for time off to fully heal some injuries. Many feel he will be granted the time off, since RAW will be able to do just fine without him. He was also unhappy that his feud with Chris Masters was cut short, and without notice.

Monday Night Raw on September 26th has been moved from Biloxi, Mississippi to Waco, Texas and the Smackdown taping on September 27th has been moved from New Orleans, Louisiana to Laredo, Texas.

Brooke Hogan hates Lindsay Lohan for some unknown reason and says, "I don't want to beat her up, but I could if I had to."

Blue Meanie is acting as if he is unemployed, although he hasn't received a call from the WWE.

Due to his character, WWE has told Eugene to stay in character and act that way 24 hours a day if any people are around. Jillian Hall has also been asked to wear a band-aid on her face in public, when not wearing any makeup.

This week is the final Thursday Smackdown.

Then next week it's on Fridays, and if you're in a Major League Baseball area, it will likely be pre-empted since most local channels carry games on Friday nights.
 
Too lazy (and this isn't really big, interesting, or great news) to get into news-host mode, but here's a piece of news:

See the full article at WWE.com: Dusty Rhodes officially signs a WWE contract. He will be in a creative position, and he has no desire to be an on-air character.

Also, here's some pictures my friend sent me that he found on the web:

What the hell is up with that picture? Where's it from?

Yes, I'm wondering about the Stacy remark as well. Only caught part of the show.
 
seems a New diva will be doing playboy

Who’s the next WWE Diva that will pose NUDE in Playboy Magazine? You might be surprised. And it’s not Johnnie Mae Young.

that was in the "Ross Report" on WWE.com

You heard nothin. Move along.
 
I'm sort of hoping we don't see Keibler nude... because that would be the pinnacle of Diva viewing, and there would be no point afterwards.

Plus, there's always the "she did Test & David Flair" stench to her.
 
Dusty Rhodes has officially signed on to be part of WWE's creative team, reports PWInsider.com. One would expect a formal announcement to be forthcoming.

Dusty Rhodes has begun duties as part of the WWE SmackDown! brand. Few other details, including financial terms, are public at this time.
Click to expand...

Confirming the report from earlier this evening, WWE.com posted a fairly lengthy interview with the newly signed Dusty Rhodes. Rhodes will assume a role on the creative team for WWE SmackDown.

Speaking about the offer, Rhodes said, "I think it’s just opportunity to continue what I’ve really enjoyed doing since 1974, and that’s create exciting scenarios. Being able to work with a group of young kids and some veterans to give my opinion on some stuff and my ideas, I think that is exciting too."

Rhodes specifically plans to make SmackDown! a spicier, more electrifying show. "[SmackDown!]’s got great athletes and they’ve got great action, they’ve done some tremendous stuff, but I want it to knock you off the couch when it opens up," Rhodes said.

The industry veteran, who is heavily anticipating working under Stephanie McMahon, still hopes to have a final match with Ric Flair.
