Sunday's news starts with questions from PWInsider.com. Remember that I have no affiliation with them, and am just adding my own opinions and analysis to what they said. Also, I only answer ones that I feel I have something to say on it.
First up, someone asks about the WWE release of Shelly Martinez, a.k.a. Ariel from the ECW brand. She gives the whole story in an interview with Diva-Dirt.com. Part 1 Part 2 For those of you without the time to listen to the interview (which is pretty interesting, for the record), she and Batista had a few altercations behind the scenes. Batista was obviously higher on the food chain, so she was cut instead of him. Or so the story goes. I believe it stemmed from a bad relationship Batista had with one of Martinez' friends and/or a fellow Diva.
Yes, currently there are plans for a Money In The Bank match at WrestleMania XXVII. And a pay-per-view by that name. Presumably the Mania winner will still be able to cash in on either show, and there will be one for each brand at the PPV. I can definitely see the criticism that it waters the concept down!
Next, 2/21/11 and an update on Christian. And the rest of the day's news.
They report that Christian will be back some time this Spring.
Someone asks if the 2/21/11 videos could be a swerve for Sting. It's certainly possible, but since he's not under contract (that I'm aware of) it'd be pretty ironic given what just happened with TNA. It should be noted that the videos don't explicitly say "someone's going to be here on February 11th", although that's an obvious way to read into it.
To travel from Saturday's show in Victoria, BC to Sunday's in Bakersfield, CA, the Raw stars had to take a 2 hour ferry ride to Vancouver, a 3 hour drive to Seattle, a flight to Los Angeles, and then drive to Bakersfield. That's pretty crazy. They should have planned that one out better.
Shaul Guerrero, daughter of Vickie and Eddie, wrestled her first match in FCW recently.
Max and Jeremy Buck had travel issues and were unable to make it to Against All Odds. Their flight was canceled at the last minute. I'm actually surprised that this doesn't happen more often.
There were rumors going around recently about the health of former ECW Champion Justin Credible after he didn't show up for a wrestling event. He's alive and with his family in Connecticut. He looks to launch a wrestling promotion soon called "Icons of Wrestling".
Jeff Hardy won his 5th overall World Title last night - 2 TNA Titles, 2 WWE World Titles, and 1 WWE Title.
That's all for a post I forgot to hit post on a few hours ago. Sorry about that! More news after Raw.
