The Scoop

Posted: Dec 24th 2014 By: Oklafan Staff

NEWS
Ric Flair did work a WWE live event over the weekend but he was not scheduled for WWE TV this week and went back home in Atlanta, GA.

Adrian Neville did an interview with The Sun and mentioned how Pat Patterson was not scheduled to come to the ring after his match with Sami Zayn at "NXT REvolution". Neville said "Apparently, watching the match, Pat wasn't meant to come out but he just foxed his way through. He said he was going to jump the railings, no matter what Triple H said. He just shook my hand and congratulated me and told me he'd enjoyed the match, which coming from someone like Pat, is huge. It was surreal. Someone like Pat giving you that nod, it is unbelievable." Neville also said he teared up at the end of the match.

UFC star and noted pro wrestling fan Ronda Rousey recently spoke with TalkSport.com to promote "The Expendables 3" and commented on a possible run with WWE. She said ?Oh I would be a heel for sure. I can?t take the name of ?Rowdy? and not be a heel, that would be an insult to the man I pay tribute to with my name ? the great Rowdy Roddy Piper. I would have to try and live up to his legacy as much as possible and I can?t do that being a babyface.? To read the entire interview by clicking here.

Jeff Jarrett appeared on "The Ross Report" with Jim Ross this past week and said Global Force Wrestling does not want to rush their product like other wrestling companies have done but they are planning on having their own roster, their own live events, sponsorships and everything else.

Jarrett said they want to get the Global Force Wrestling brand out to fans and create partnerships with companies like New Japan Pro Wrestling and Asistencia Asesor?a y Administraci?n by the time they launch their own TV show.
