Lana issues statement on injury 

  It is being reported that WWE diva Lana sustained a wrist injury while training for her first in ring match. Word going around is that there was suppose to be a mixed tag match at Night of Champions pinning Lana and Ziggler to go up against the team of Rusev and Summer Rae. Now due to Lana’s injury that won’t be the case.

Lana took to Twitter and Instagram to address her injury. She had this to say: “I have dedicated my entire life to becoming the best sports entertainer I could be. Ever since I have debuted in @wwe I have continued to go to @wwenxt & come hours early before live events to train & learn how to fight. I wanted my first match to make the #WWE Universe proud. My wrist fracture is proof that WWE & professional wrestling is not fake but very real. This is a bump in the road & can be discouraging but for every person that has believed in me and has ever chanted #WeWantLana I will keep going. From here forward I will share every part of my journey to my first match. Thank you to every fan that has cheered for me & chanted my name, you all give me the strength to be brave. I will continue to give everything I have to becoming one of the greatest women in WWE & entertainment.”

Lana is expected to be out from anywhere between 4-6 months. We here at Wrestling news blog. Would like to send Lana positive vibes and hopes for a speedy recovery

Sting Wants Jim Ross To Call His Last Match

Sting appeared on Jim Ross’ podcast The Ross Report recently to talk about his career winding down.

During the conversation Jim Ross said that there was a very short list of names that he’d want to come back to call their last match. He told Sting that his name was on the list. Sting let him know that he felt the same way.

“The feeling is mutual,” Sting said. “If I could have anyone on the face of this Earth to call my last match, it would be Jim Ross. If I get my way, if I get what I want, that’s what’s going to happen.”

Ross then joked that he was available and works cheap.

“You can’t say ‘the young kid from Venice Beach’ anymore, though. You’ll have to be more creative,” Sting joked.

Jim Ross hasn’t called a match for WWE since January 2013.

Huge co main event named for UFC193

  What Dana White wants Dana Whie gets. When he sat down with New York Times late last month  he said he wanted Rousey and Jedrzejczyk both defending their titles on the same card. That card in question was suppose to be UFC195 but thanks to Lawler and Condit getting scraped Rousey and Holm were brought in as a replacement to headline the UFC193 card in Melbourne Australia.

A card that was already expected to break an all time attendance record just got all the more interesting. Today at the UFC Go big press conference in Vegas  it was announced that UFC Straweight Champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk will be defending her title for the 2nd time against challenger Valerie Letourneau in the co main event.

Jedrzejczyk’s original opponent was suppose to be Claudia Gadelha but due to a thumb injury she sustained in her last fight she’s unable to compete. Both Letourneau and Jedrzejczyk are coming off wins in their last fight. Letourneau who is (8-3) is coming off a Unanimous decision win over Marya Maroz from this last month. As where Jedrzejczyk who is (10-0) is coming off a 3rd round TKO victory against Jessica Penne from June

With this fight added Austrailia looks to be in for a treat. UFC193 will be the first event in the company’s history to have two women’s titles defended on a card. UFC193 takes place November 14th, 2016 from Melboene Australia and live on PPV

Jimmy Snuka Has Dementia, May Not Be Able To Stand Trial

William E. Moore, the attorney representing WWE Hall of Famer Jimmy Snuka told the Allentown Morning Call that he sees the likelihood of Snuka being able to stand trial doubtful.

Moore said Snuka was wheelchair-bound and hooked up to a feeding tube when he surrendered into custody. He said Snuka is not in good shape physically or mentally and that he’s not sure Snuka realized what was going on.

Moore said Snuka is suffering from partial dementia stemming from numerous concussions. He said Snuka has limited recall/long-term memory, if you put him up against a sharp prosecutor asking him to remember 30 years ago he would have no recollection.

A preliminary hearing is scheduled for September 21st, but that may be delayed because Moore is unable to represent Snuka at trial due to a prior commitment.

Bret Hart Talks Owen Hart Should Be In WWE Hall Of Fame, The Hart Foundation & Much More

WWE Hall of Famer did a Q&A with Off The Record’s Periscope account this week. Bret talked about his brother Owen Hart, The Hart Foundation, Hulk Hogan, CM Punk, Hockey and much more.

Bret said his brother Owen Hart should be in the WWE Hall of Fame and he’s hoping the induction happens during WrestleMania 32 weekend in Dallas next year. Bret said the induction is way overdue and he will be sorely disappointed if it doesn’t happen.

Bret said he’s looking forward to WWE’s upcoming “Owen Hart: Hart of Gold” DVD set but he has reservations because it feels like it was too controlled with WWE “tip-toeing” around so they didn’t offend Owen’s widow Martha. Bret said Martha has made an ass of herself and p*ssed him off. Bret believes Martha has done more to erase Owen’s legacy and career, and doesn’t want today’s fans to enjoy Owen.  He said Martha is “very anal” about not getting over what happened to Owen.

Later Bret said if Owen isn’t inducted next year, he won’t attend another Hall of Fame ceremony until he and Jim “The Anvil” Neidhart are inducted as a tag team, The Hart Foundation. He also added that he hopes WWE inducts the whole Hart Foundation next year in Dallas – himself, Owen, Anvil, Brian Pillman and British Bulldog.
