WWE

WWE announced today that Edge & Christian will be appearing on the final RAW of 2014, which takes place on December 29th at the Verizon Center in Washington, D.C. Also advertised for the event are WWE World Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar, John Cena & Randy Orton.

Randy Orton is expected to return soon, possibly this Sunday at WWE’s TLC pay-per-view. Orton is scheduled to feud with Seth Rollins upon his return but could also be feuding with Kane on some of the WWE live events.

Kevin Steen will make his WWE NXT debut tonight at NXT Takeover: Revolution as Kevin Owens.

 

AJ Lee accepts the Slammy Award for Diva of the year

Yesterday AJ picked up the award for Diva of the year at the Slammys on Raw. In her acceptance speech she name dropped some of the NXT wrestlers such as Bayley and Sasha Banks. She even named dropped Emma and Paige. It was a moment that generated mixed reactions.

For the most part people saw it as AJ giving the future of the company respect a passing of the torch so to speak, while others thought it as a diss to the total divas cast?

How so you ask? Well one would argue why couldn’t she had named droop Naomi, or Eva, or summer, or even her opponent for this Sunday Nikki Bella? Not to mention the fact that Nikki posted what seemed like a shoot to AJ Lee on her Instagram account. (Check it out here) http://instagram.com/p/wXv2ucCkJE/

So what do you think was it a diss or a sign of respect? No matter what side your on this moment has people taking and after all that’s the good thing. One should also take notice that AJ isn’t advertised for any WWE events after this Sundays TLC&stairs PPV this Sunday. Was last night AJ’s final Raw appearance? Only time will tell and I’m sure it’ll be in the near future.

CM Punk interview with Ariel Hawani

20141207-105622.jpg

Last night after UFC 181 came to a close at the Mandalay Bay Arena in Las Vegas NV MMA journalist Ariel Hawani interviewed the UFC’s newest signee Phil “CM Punk” Brooks. (You can watch the interview here) http://www.mmamania.com/2014/12/7/7347637/video-watch-cm-punk-reason-join-ufc-leave-wwe-interview-mma

One thing that I found interesting is that punk said after he was done with WWE he knew what he wanted to do next in fact he said the first time he brought it up to UFC owner Lorenzo Fereta was back at UFC 170 on February 22nd when Rousey fought Mcmann.

Punk says although he appreciates getting paid this isn’t about the money and its more about achieving a goal he’s always had and at the end of the day not living his life with regret. He also says he understands the doubt since he has an 0-0 record in the sport but he says he’s made a career of proving people wrong and at the end of it all he will have people’s respect.

Punk was asked about his age playing a factor (punk is currently 36) he says that he’s felt better then he’s ever felt and fighting into his 40’s isn’t out of the question because you can’t tell an athlete when to hang it up and he plans on making the UFC his home for the foreseeable feature.

So when will we see CM Punk in the octagon? Well according to the man himself he wants to at least train for 6 months before stepping into the cage so if my math is correct I wouldn’t be surprised if he made his debut durring international fight week in July.

Like punk said in the interview “wether you’ll tune in to see me get my ass kicked that’s ok, or because your curios that’s fine too or if you want to watch to root me on that’s even better but you will tune in”

Well said punk well said

Reactions to CM Punk signing with UFC

20141206-231416.jpg

Just in case you missed this ground breaking announcement here is CM Punk talking about his new career choice

Weather you are happy or not about the UFC’s newest signee there is no doubt that this is a HUGE business move. A lot of people will either tune in to see Punk dominate in the UFC or fail miserably. One thing is forsure though lots of eyes will be on his debut in 2015 and it’ll definitely bring lots of crossover fans. Hell I would be lying if I said I wasn’t excited to see how this is going to play out. Meanwhile people of both the wrestling and MMA world have been reacting on twitter. Here are a few notable tweets.

Are you on bored with punk coming to the UFC? Do you absolutely hate it? Let us know in the comments below

CM PUNK SIGNS WITH UFC

20141206-220409.jpg

NOPE you’re not dreaming you read the headline correctly. The self proclaimed “Best in the world” is trading in his wrestling boots for some UFC gloves. It was announced on air from the UFC181 ppv in Las Vegas with the help of UFC commentator Joe Rogan that none other then CM Punk has signed with the UFC.

It is being said that Punk will be making his octagon debut in 2015 as a fighter in the middleweight division. It should be noted the Punk does have extended training in BJJ and has friends in the organization. You can read more about this major announcement here http://m.ign.com/articles/2014/12/07/cm-punk-signs-with-ufc

How do you feel about this announcement. This wouldn’t be the first time a former WWE superstar has transition into the fight world. Do you think Punk will fit in? Do you think it’s a bad move?

Personally I think the move will gain a lot of crossover fans and if this is something punk wants I’m all for it. One question remains though. Will he be fighting under CM Punk or Phill Brooks?? Only time will tell

CM Punk & Colt Cabana round 2

20141205-115648.jpg

You read the title right folks, CM Punk returned to the “art of wrestling” podcast to sit down with his buddy Colt Cabana. This podcast is a little more laid back and is more of a conversation amongst friends. However Punk touches on a few WWE things such as WWE not wanting him to be on LA Ink or a slim Jim sponsor, the Vince McMahon apology and of corse the cm punk chants. If you are or (were) a punk fan you’re going to want to listen to this one. https://m.soundcloud.com/coltcabana/aow-227-cm-punk-returns
