The Scoop

Posted: Dec 14th 2010 By: mikeiles

NEWS
The Reno Scum (Adam Thornstowe & Luster the Legend) were stripped of the Supreme Pro Wrestling Tag Team Titles after failing to appear at SPW's November 21st show. An eight team tournament will be held December 19th in Sacramento, CA to crown new champions.

Michael H, Lee Cook, Mr. Big, & J. R. Orullian will be appearing on KNWA, the Fox affiliate for northwest Arkansas. Their appearance will be on Wednesday, December 15th at 6:15am and they will be promoting the Hillbilly Wrestling Association's show in Springdale, AR on December 18th which will also have a toy drive.

Jim Cornette will be a guest on OWW Radio tonight at 9pm Eastern. Go to OnlineWorldOfWrestling.com to listen.

Despite dropping hints online, discussions to bring Goldberg to WrestleMania XXVII in Atlanta, GA are being described as cold at the present time.

WWE has announed that the upcoming "Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase DVD will be released in June 2011. A Goldberg DVD will be released in December 2011.

It?s not the first time that Paul Bearer has been killed off on a WWE television show. On last week's "WWE Friday Night SmackDown!", Bearer was written off TV after Edge tricked Kane into pushing the real Paul Bearer over an arena ledge and judging by the noise of the bump it?s pretty safe to say that the legendary manager is not coming back next week. ?What an abrupt end to a fun unexpected ride,? said Bearer on Twitter. ?Will I ever return? Never say never,? he added. He returned on WWE TV in late September when he got out from a casket during the Undertaker/Kane feud and sided with the Undertaker, however Bearer turned on him at the following pay-per-view, payback for burying him alive several years ago.

Last week, Joey Styles posted the following on Twitter: "I heard Jeff Jarrett challenged any fan at a TNA taping to make him tap out. Too bad I wasn?t there to do it. I?d be a main eventer in TNA."

The main reason Ric Flair didn?t work at TNA's "Final Resolution" pay-per-view is that the company is already over the dates he agreed to a year ago so they cut back on having him on the PPV since they felt he wasn?t needed.

Ric Flair was the Honorary 12th Titan for the Tennessee Titans. They showed Ric Flair on the sidelines and the graphic under Ric?s name read ?Former Wrestling Great?.vs. Indianapolis Colts last Thursday night.

Jeff Jarrett on Twitter on Monday: "Doing media today in Glasgow. Great stop at the Daily Record.Also, several phoners for Dublin. Really looking forward to next month?s tour."

TNA has announced a training camp Gut check on January 29th in London, England at 2pm in conjunction with their next tour. Jeff Jarrett and D-Lo Brown will be both teaching a seminar as well as scouting talent. For more info go to http://www.tnagutcheck.com

A new documentary called "Special Attraction: An Inside Look at Female Wrestling" is scheduled for a mid-2011 release. The documentary features Cheerleader Melissa Anderson, Genny Goulet (LuFisto), as well as promoters like Dann Read, Gabriel Ramirez and Jason Deadrich.

Oklafan would like to congratulate Kraig Keesaman on the birth of his daughter on December 1st.

Oklafan would like to wish a speedy recovery to Damon Windsor, who is nursing a broken foot.

Oklafan would also like to wish a speedy recovery to Jordan Jacobs who broke his hip on December 4th in a 6-Man Tag Team Match at an IZW show in Lawton.

Oklafan send its condolences to the friends and family of Skip Young, who passed away on December 5th.
