Blood clot that happened due to a staph infection, I believe. Not sure off hand.

More or less. He broke his leg, then had surgery. A blood clot killed him suddenly and shockingly.

And why am I the only person not looking forward to ECW coming back because it is STILL OWNED BY VINCE MCMAHON...

Paul Heyman and Tommy Dreamer do the booking, and hopefully they have complete creative control as well.

Double Post:
Did I hear boos during the RVD/Carlito/Hass vs. Masters/Benjamin/Striker match directed at RVD?

Spoiler:


Mad Props to WWE For hyping See No Evil with the May 19th date, as well as making the area around Big Shows Eye Bleed.

See No Evil will fail at the box office.

It's going up against The Da Vinci Code.

No...DX is NOT coming back...at least the one with HHH, HBK, Road Dogg, Billy Gunn and X-Pac
I scrolled back again and read this. HBK was never really in DX with HHH, Xpac, Gunn and Road Dogg, he was more or less the one starting it with Triple H, Chyna and I guess Rick Rude.

I know Triple H is geared for a face turn...and what better way to push triple h over as a huge face..then aligning him with HBK? If that does happen, it wont be DX of old...more or less like an alliance with the two and having them do their own seperate thing. The only flaw in DX returning is the fact that both are high level main eventers. Back when it was formed, triple h was somewhat of a midcarder. Still, I would love to see HHH and HBK team up and beat the hell out of the spirit squad...just because.

Okay, I totally missed what caused this recent outburst of Styles, cuz I was talking to my mom about my Play-Asia crisis.

Can someone care to fill me in on what the hell Lawler said or did?

Just a set-up for ECW, is all.

Also, if they're not bringing DX back then are they sure throwing a billion teases out for it.

Driving under the radar....

ECW's coming back?? that'd be pretty cool.

that styles meltdown was pretty funny. he did have some good points though. WWE is full of "sports entertainers" not "wrestlers".
Lawler said Styles was going back to the gutter to kiss Paul Hayman's ass. hahahaha. I thought Hayman's in the TNA?

Styles should be the writer for WWE and I kinda hope he gets input on the writing for ECW.

Six months ago, WWE called me, I didn't call this company because I was looking for a job. I didn't need a job. WWE called me because they had humiliated and fired...again, Jim Ross. So I get JR's spot, and from week one, week after week I've got an ongoing lecture about the differences in professional wrestling and sports entertainment. I'm not allowed to say 'pro wrestling', I'm not allowed to say 'wrestler'. I have to say 'sports entertainment' and refer to the wrestlers as 'superstars'. I'm told to deliberant ignore the moves and the holds during the matches so I can tell stories. Well ignoring the moves and the holds is damn insulting to the athletes, the 'wrestlers', not the entertainers who leave their families three hundred days a year to ply their craft in that ring. Here's the best part, because I'm not a sports entertainment storyteller I get pulled from Wrestlemania, and the reason I'm given is, is because I don't sound like Jim Ross who's the guy they fired in the first place. That makes sense, right? So I swallow the bitter pill, I'm a company guy. I get bumped from Wrestlemania. Then I get bumped from Backlash? I'm not good enough to call Backlash!? In ECW, I called live pay-per-views on my own, solo, no color commentators dragging me down. Wasn't done before me, hasn't been done since. But I'm not good enough to call Backlash because I'm not a sports entertainment storyteller. Well you know what? I am sick of sports entertainment. I am sick of male cheerleaders. I am sick of boogers and bathroom humor and semen and I am sick of our chairman. Who likes to talk about his own semen, he mocks God... he mocks God!!!!! And makes out with the divas all to feed his own insatiable ego. I am sick of sports entertainment, and most of all I am sick of you fans who actually buy into that crap! This sports entertainment circus! I never
needed this job, and I don't want this job anymore."

[At this point Joey pulls the WWE collar off the microphone and tosses it away.]

"I quit!"
Now thats good writing..and it was done by Styles...not the monkeys in the back.
HELL YEAH

Really does make you think, doesn't it...what's happened to

the WWF...WWE, I mean. It didn't used to be all about drama,

it used to be about wrestling...didn't it?
