The Scoop

Posted: Nov 27th 2012 By: mikeiles

NEWS
Among the matches on the new WWE DVD entitled "Best PPV Matches Of 2012" is Layla vs. Beth Phoenix from "Over the Limit" on May 20, 2012. The DVD goes on sale December 26th.

On "The Soup" last Wednesday night, they had The Miz, Eve Torres, Daniel Bryan, Rey Mysterio, Brodus Clay, Hornswaggle, Michael Cole, and Jerry Lawler. Everyone were in their outfits. They showed Eve and The Miz roaming around backstage. The Miz came off the worst, and when he and Eve walked into the control room, he acted like a little kid saying that, "Where are we now, a space ship?" Overall a good segment. Lawler stole the show making Cole crack up as he introduced clips. They also showed a Hulk Hogan promo for WrestleMania 4, with the rest being a few clips from recent years. The show reaired last night after RAW.

Mick Foley posted on Twitter in response to the rumor of him facing C. M. Punk "Regarding that rumor about me wrestling @CMPunk : I might if I could, but I can?t, so I won?t."

The current plan is for A. J. Styles to play a bitter character and appear to be on the verge of turning heel on television, but The Wrestling Observer Newsletter reports that Styles isn?t slated to turn full fledged heel.

Big Van Vader is booked for All Japan Pro Wrestling from December 7th through 11th.

"Timeline: History of WCW - 1991 as told by Barry Windham" is now available from KayfabeCommentaries.com.
