    About being at a Shoneys To Go Grand Opening….Really….Im playing poker with you and ive

    already told you what my hand is and the significance of 609,and the shoneys tweet

    Brought u out of yur hole,first off if you want to call anybody a drug abuser look no further than yur son

    609Garrett was a 140 lb non-athletic pussy in high school,but as everybody can see he can take

    Everything under the sun but it hasnt improved his athletic ability,the apple doesnt fall far from the tree

    Let me educate u on Shoneys,first off this wasnt a paid appearance,i was there on behalf of my friend

    Of 18 yrs who purchased the Shoneys Brand 6 yrs ago for around $300 million,and its no

    Longer a greasy fast food joint as u suggest,you would have known this if u ever went to the Tna offices

    Bcuz Shoneys corporate offices are also in Nashville,but as you like to brag your too high class and make

    Too much money to eat at a place like that,well the # 609 suggests you aint high class at all

    So for everybody that has bn tweeting me back asking what is the significance of 609 and why

    Chant 609 when either bitchoff enters the ring,is bcuz 609 is part of a larger # that eric owns n now

    Garrett is going to have to live with,

    The full sequence is 1:19-CR-609 and its represents bitchoffs docket # when he testified under oath

    In Atlanta’s Gold Club trial

    More later on his exact testimony which is very revealing and humurous bcuz it shows what a

    Weasle he is,which i will also post on my website,

    Bitchoff u need to worry about the crowds that Tna is drawing since u 3 assholes have taken control

    2,500 ppl were at the last ppv in nashville,the home base of Tna and alot of those were freebee’s,

    Bitchoff cant deny anything that i tweeted about bcuz its all true,so hes trying to change the focus

    Saying im to old slow & boring..really check out the Ring ka King footage

    That i didnt want to move over for the younger guys,all i did was try to elevate guys and pass the torch

    Ask any wrestler better yet look at the tape,im not a mark like hogan and have to have creative control

    Bcuz ppl dont care who wins or loses,they want to be entertained,hogan living in his fantansy world

    Actually believes hes winning

    Trust me bitchoff ,u and hogan are about to find out im the last guy you should have fuckd with

    Your going to find out that payback is a bitch,both mentally n physically right now im FF’n with

    Your mind,and i will see u both again,and you will see how ruthless i can be,believe that

  • Eric Bischoff Responds To Scott Steiner’s Rants, Says He’s Bitter

    Eric Bischoff has finally responded to Scott Steiner’s numerous messages on Twitter over the past month blasting him and TNA Wrestling.

    After “Big Poppa Pump” wrote Thursday afternoon on the social networking website, “At Shoney’s to Go Grand Opening in Buford….awesome food,” the TNA Wrestling executive responded, “50+ year old man pitching greasy fried chicken in Buford and wrestling indys in front of 250 fans…bitter?”

    Bischoff feels it’s ironic that Steiner complains about young talent not rising in TNA Wrestling while simultaneously ripping his 28-year-old wrestler son Garrett: “Its hard for some guys to move over and let the younger talent rise. Irony? One of Scotts bitches in his 20’s and 30’s.”

    Bischoff then retweeted comments on his timeline with an anti-Steiner stance, many of which accusing him of drug abuse.

    “@ScottSteiner @HulkHogan @EBischoff Steiner’s bitter. He’d be there tomorrow if he were called upon. His matches were slow and boring anyway.”

    “@ScottSteiner U must have a sad fuckin life if all u do is waffle on about @HulkHogan and @EBischoff all day on this #steroidjunkie.”

    “@ScottSteiner You’re tweets make as much sense as your promos did… In other words, you’re a babbling, old, drug abusing fool @EBischoff.”

    “@ScottSteiner Get a life you complete tit, Spending all day going on about @EBischoff and @HulkHogan get some respect.”

    “@EBischoff Scott Steiner sounds like a disgruntled ex girlfriend!”

    “@EBischoff don’t listen to the dabbling jealous wreck that is @scottsteiner, WWE needs to offer him the ex-employees the wellness rehab.”

    “@EBischoff it would appear that Scott steiner has his head in his ass, as well as a needle.”

    A Twitter user also wrote, “@EBischoff I bet if Hulk sold used toilet paper, it would triple the sales of @ScottSteiner merchandise. Bischoff responded, “Thats being generous. Be kind to Scott. His AARP card is active and it’s an adjustment for him.”

    Bischoff also took aim at Shane Douglas, who has accused the TNA Wrestling executive of “killing pro wrestling” in multiple interviews: “It takes a while…but eventually they get it. Shane is a loud mouth never-been, never will be, bitter old man trying to relive.”

  • Scott Steiner Continues Railing Hulk Hogan, Blasts New Concept

    Scott Steiner, who parted ways with TNA Wrestling in March, has continued to fire off messages on Twitter trashing his former employer. In his latest series of messages, “Big Poppa Pump” rips Hulk Hogan over his reported concept calling for fans to film TNA Wrestling talent whenever they may encounter them. The multi-time champion also recalls a conversation with Sting where both shared displeasure with Orlando Jordan portraying a bisexual character. Steiner says:

    “Everytime hogan talks to the media without a script he sounds like a F’n idiot. Now hogan is sayin hes going to give more power to the fans get them more involved Make them more important,BUT,thats all he can speak on it right now,F*CK R U kidding me no other business in the world would allow 2 assholes to come into a company, Drive it to the lowest ratings EVER continue the low ratings for 2 1/2 cut down most employees In the media,and still have a job,what is Tna n Spike Tv officials thinking.”

    “First off hogan, there is nobody more important than the fans,without fans There is no wrestling,dumbass,and second theres this new invention calld the nielson ratings system And the fans are choosing not to be involved in the bullshit that you n bitchoff brought to Tna And are using their power to change the channel.”

    “This new brand,concept will be a fraud just like changing it to impact wrestling where”wrestling matters” Which was a crock of shit bcuz nothing changed,this is nothing but smoke But they are not wrestlings target audience,wrestlings demographics are basically the same as nascar fans.”

    “now i have NOTHING against gay ppl “to each his own” Hogan brought in Orlando Jordan n introduced the wrestling audience to the first openly gay. Plus we were filming at universal where the fans were familys with kids from the park,at first They did segments with Orlando in front of the live crowd n some familys were appaud n left Bcuz his first stuff was him lusting over another wrestling which was bullshit,so then they starting doing His segments backstage,so the live crowd wouldnt see them.”

    “so im talking with Sting in the impact Zone one day,and we are both saying WTF is going on around here and he said he was going to Say something and that he cant watch the show anymore,so i start asking questions and find out that In the production meetings hogan thinks he could be the world champion,which i didnt understand Why at the time,then later his ex-wife comes out n said he was gay. Hogan i know u think u have a Strong brand name,but when yur ex-wife says yur gay You were Branded .:…..brother.”

    “Every PPv sunday tna would have chapel and sting was pissed at the hypocrisy of it all But thats what hogan wanted,of course his business partner and lap dog was backing him Sayin controversy creates cash ….bullshit .. U motherfuckers need to get a grip.”

  • Hulk Hogan’s “New Concept” For TNA Possibly Revealed

    Hulk Hogan recently told the New York Post that he has a “new concept” that will “change the business” and be a “momentum shifting” idea. Hogan is so confident that the idea will work that he told the post:

    “We are going to give more power to the fans, make them more involved and more important. I can’t say much more, but I can say this, I’m either going to be really right on this one or really wrong. If I’m wrong, you probably won’t see me again because I’ll be hightailing it out of here.”

    Now, word has gotten out about what the concept is – and we’re left wondering whether Hogan’s days in TNA could be numbered.

    At Monday’s Impact Wrestling tapings, the word going around the TNA locker room is that the new concept is something where TNA will be calling on their fans to film TNA wrestlers whenever they may encounter them, in or out of the ring, TMZ/paparazzi-style.

    Sources in TNA say talent is not thrilled with the idea, with people joking about Hogan encouraging “candid footage” of TNA stars – considering how badly his own image has been hurt by TMZ coverage (his divorce, Nick Hogan’s car wreck, his sex tape, etc.).

  • Hulk Hogan Plans To Leave TNA If New Concept Doesn’t Work

    Hulk Hogan was recently interviewed by the New York Post and said he plans to leave TNA if his new idea for Impact Wrestling does not work out:

    “We are going to give more power to the fans, make them more involved and more important. I can’t say much more, but I can say this, I’m either going to be really right on this one or really wrong. If I’m wrong, you probably won’t see me again because I’ll be hightailing it out of here.”

  • Scott Steiner Continues Trashing TNA, Rips Thursday’s Impact

    Scott Steiner, who parted ways with TNA Wrestling last month, has continued to fire off messages on Twitter trashing his former employer. In his latest series of messages, “Big Poppa Pump” rips Thursday’s episode of Impact Wrestling and urges fans to voice their complaints to TNA Wrestling President Dixie Carter. He wrote:

    Lets keep the momentum going to save Tna and turn rhe channel when u see a hogan or bitchoff

    Segment wait 5 mins n turn it back,also keep tweeting Dixie that its time to save Tna

    How appropiate the show ended with shit

    Im glad everybody is agreeing with what i said last wk about open fight night

    Brillant booking by the 3 assholes what a waste of airtime on the indy wrestler..wtf really

    Is everybody believing me now that pritchard was just a go’fer in the WWE,how many bad shows

    Do the Tna fans have to suffer thru b4 Tna n spike tv officials realize he is lying

    Keep tweeting @tnadixie to voice yur opinon to save Tna from the same fate as WCW

    How stupid fake n out of date did hogans backstage promos look,like i said if hogan isnt sayin

    His catchphrases he sounds like a FF’n idiot

    Its clear that nobody cares about eric or garrett bitchoff bcuz their segments draw low ratings

    So u would think that with him “leaving” having another segment on him would be the last thing

    They would do….but of course they had 4-5 segments on him

    Which was brutal n hard to watch,how fake did it look when garrett took eric to the port o john and

    Then put him in..thus ending with a SHIT shot on a SHIT show

  • Paul Orndorff Slams Bret Hart, Ric Flair and Ultimate Warrior

    WWE Hall of Famer Paul Orndorff appeared on Inside The Ropes on Thursday night and slammed Bret Hart, Ric Flair and Ultimate Warrior (audio available here) . Highlights are are as follows:

    Facing Ric Flair in 1982 for NWA World Championship: “He was just another body. Some are better than others. I believed in making it look real. I was probably hard to work with because I wanted it to make real and I knew how to wrestle.”

    Experience of working at the first WrestleMania in the main event: “It was special. There were so many people. It was the largest crowd to ever watch it. And then the pay per view of it was just ungodly. This was my opportunity to be really noticed and be seen. My paycheck….it was huge. I made more money in that 30 minutes than I did in a whole year with the NWA. People expected it and they were gonna get it from me.”

    Working with Mr. T in the main event of WrestleMania: “I wasn’t crazy about it. I was very protective WrestleMania 1of the business. I was taught that. You take care of it. You don’t give out all your trade secrets. But then again you look at somebody like Ric Flair and you can say how can you hide something when they look like that? So I guess I started to give in a little bit.”

    Transition in WWF from wrestling to entertainment in mid 80’s: “It depends on your personality. I protected it. To me that wasn’t protecting it. As you can see right now, because they didn’t protect it, where it is now, there’s only two shows now. Look how many there was, there was one in every state, now look where it is.”

    On Vince McMahon using guys like Ultimate Warrior, more about the body: “I thought it was the worst move they could’ve made. Vince did it on purpose. He did it so he could be the only one.”

    On Ultimate Warrior: “He never paid his dues. You gotta pay your dues, go and learn your trade that’ll make it better when you are on that big stage. It’s called experience and nobody has any now, because there’s nowhere to go to get it.”

    Right decision on giving belt to smaller stars like Randy Savage and Bret Hart?: “No. Absolutely not. It’s like putting the belt on someone who wants to be a wrestler. It didn’t work. It downgraded, made the belt worthless. When Terry Funk, Harley Race had world titles, it meant more.”

    Opinion on long rumur that Hogan wouldn’t drop the belt to Bret Hart in 1993…: “I don’t blame him. I wouldn’t have either. Bret Hart was a nobody from Canada and Hogan was the greatest star in wrestling. I don’t blame him. He did the right thing.”

    Quick Fire Thoughts

    Ultimate Warrior: “I gotta go to the bathroom………………..NEXT!”

    Vince McMahon: “One of a kind.”

    Hulk Hogan: “Great.”

    Bret Hart: “I don’t care much for Canadians.”

    Randy Savage: “OK.”

    Ric Flair: “A Joke.”

  • Brooke Hogan Appearing At Lockdown, Why She Isn’t In TNA

    Hulk Hogan’s daughter Brooke said on Twitter that she will be on hand for tonight’s TNA Lockdown pay-per-view event in Nashville, Tennessee. Since her father’s arrival to TNA Wrestling over two years ago, it’s been speculated that she would eventually assume an on-camera role. When asked Saturday whether she has plans to join the Knockouts division, she remarked, “Knockout division? I’m about 2 feet taller than all em. It just wouldn’t be fair lol.”

    Hogan told British newspaper The Sun that WWE has tried several times to get her to follow in her father footsteps and become a wrestler.

    “The WWE have told me that if I ever want to become a wrestler all I need to do is walk through the door and they’ll give me a job straight away,” Hogan said three years ago. “They are always like, ‘Hey Brooke when are you gonna put on some spandex and get in the ring?’”

    So what’s stopping her from becoming a wrestler?

    “It’s just not my interest,” Hogan said then. “I’m more of a girly girl.”

    Meanwhile, Robbie E warned Hogan to not interfere in his Television Championship Match against Devon tonight like at Victory Road when she took away a steel chair he attempted to use. He then blamed her for the loss over Twitter as he felt she was hitting on him during the match.

    “Don’t get involved in my match again hamster or I’ll have @IMPACTWRESTLING security get you ejected bro!” E wrote.

    She responded, “listen peanut, cool your jets. You’re not my type.”

    Bischoff made similar comments two years ago during an interview with Monday Night Mayhem shortly after Hart railed the TNA Wrestling executive producer and Hulk Hogan via Twitter: “I feel sad for Bret, because Bret is one of those people, and there are a lot of them, he’s the type of person that needs someone to hate in order to feel significant himself.”

    — Kazarian will sport an all-new look when he competes in tonight’s Lethal Lockdown match at TNA Lockdown. The TNA veteran cut off his trademark long hair as he appeared at Saturday’s Lockdown Fanfest with a shaved head.
