So some pretty excited news broke out this morning. I woke up and my TL on twitter was blowing up with the news that my favorite WMMA fighter Shayna “The Queen of Spades” Baszler will be making her UFC debut on April 16th at the ultimate fighter nations final which will air on fox sports 1. Her opponent will be Sara Kaufman
Being a huge fan of Baszler and the fact that I’ve had numerous casual conversations with her on twitter you all know who I’m rooting for

Last week TNA saw a pretty good ratings jump much of that attributed to MVP. Last night on TNA Impact a shoot promo would make him the hero to fans and industry insiders alike.
MVP has been out spoken about the direction of the pro wrestling industry including multiple appearances on SiriusXM’s “Busted Open Radio” broadcast
Is the below promo a work? Of course, but it was done with realism because of the fans and writers couldn’t ignore the truth. Not to mention if the rumors are true that Vince Russo is somewhat involved in the writing process, Vince Russo has always been a fan of the shoot angles.
Now if only CM Punk would return to the WWE and be allowed to do this kind of thing once more?
Here’s the video
UFC President Dana White has been seen frequently with pro wrestler CM Punk, who has spoken often about being a fan of the sport and does some training in his off time. Despite Punk’s increased appearance at UFC events, White insists that he and the wrestler have never discussed a potential run in MMA.
“He and I have spent plenty of time together over the last couple months,” White said. “He was actually at the fight in Chicago, he was with me all night. Never once has he said to me that he wants to fight. I have the biggest mouth in the business, it would be impossible for me not to say it.”
He also touched on many other topics in the interview above on FOX Sports Live.
There was talk at Monday’s RAW that Alberto Del Rio is making noise about leaving WWE once his contract expires.
Del Rio has been frustrated due to going from a top guy on the SmackDown brand to someone who is fed to Batista. There’s a feeling among that with Del Rio already having talked about retirement, his age and the fact that he had success in Mexico, maybe it’s time for him to leave and be happy rather than hang on.
There is no word yet if Del Rio has started working on a new contract but there is at least some concern over his future after the talk at RAW on Monday night.
Randy Orton was told to hurry through his promo and deliver it faster than usual at the beginning of last night’s RAW, likely to combat the CM Punk chants or any hijacking by the crowd.
WWE tried to ensure Batista would be cheered at last night’s RAW in Omaha by having him cut a localized promo before he came out for the segment with Alberto Del Rio. The promo aired while RAW was on commercial. Batista talked about how he was a big fan of baseball and the College World Series, which is hosted in Omaha.
