TNA & AAA Interested In Alberto Del Rio

20140807-154342.jpg

F4WOnline is reporting that both TNA & AAA are interested in signing Alberto Del Rio. Del Rio has a 90 day no-compete clause that is believed to be in place. By Del Rio being terminated, WWE may have nullified the non-compete agreement, leaving Del Rio free to jump to TNA or AAA.

Reportedly TNA tried to contact Del Rio in the immediacy of his WWE release, with a serious offer for him to become the next TNA World Champion. It might appeal to Del Rio as a way of sticking it to WWE. TNA would get a major star & a angle that would become the most talked about story in wrestling. The trouble is that TNA is low on money & potentially without a TV station in a matter of weeks.

AAA seems like a more likely option for Del Rio. AAA is currently executing a long term plan for expansion into the USA. Del Rio is the perfect brand face for that strategy, he fits with AAA’s Mexican tradition but also has American fame. Even before Del Rio was fired, he’d been rumored as a potential signing for AAA when his WWE contract expired some time this year. A t 37 years old, he might consider retiring, but could be swayed to continue his wrestling career by limited dates & maximum money.

Happy Birthday to the Queen of Spades

20140808-003327.jpg

Its the greatest day in history and to be honest I don’t even know what to say. It’s crazy to think that an athlete could affect me in such a short amount of time but here I am saying that I can’t find the words to describe how much I truly respect this woman. Shayna Baszler made her MMA debut in 1999. That’s 15 years! I honestly wish I could say I’ve been a part of all those 15 Years but I’m fortunate enough to have nearly 1 year under my belt. In this one year of knowing who the Queen of spades is I got introduced to the #4Horsewomen and further more fell in love with the world of #WMMA because of that love I’ve met so many awesome people that I can truly say their friendships will last a lifetime. This sport of MMA and our service to the #QueensArmy is our bondage and I wouldn’t change it for anything in the world. I’ve had so many opportunities that I never thought I’d have.

Some people may not like Shayna Baszler’s cocky blunt attitude but you know what that’s exactly what I LOVE about her. She’s a REAL HONEST passionate kick ass human being who has been nothing but sweet to me!

Shayna is the perfect example of what hard work and determination does. She fought in a time where weigh in’s blood test didn’t exist, in a time where no one gave a shit about WMMA. She’s one of the very few active veterans in the business. Her record speaks for itself. Many consider her a pioneer of wmma and I don’t disagree. In just 22 days all those blood sweat & tears, those constant twitter wars with people that think they know everything because they watched ONE reality tv show, the injuries and the long road in took to get to the big time will finally pay off! August 30th at UFC177 will be the greatest day in UFC history because the queen of spades will take her rightful place in the octagon this becoming the 1 in 8-1

As a member of the queens army I will end it with this regardless of her heelish character she truly is one of the humblest people I’ve ever met & there’s nothing anyone can do to make me think different! 34 years ago today a legend was born! #HappyBirthdayShaynaBaszler

Every one do me a favor go wish @QoSBaszler a happy birthday! She deserves it.
