Larry Sweeney in full Iolaus mode.

Does this mean MVP is still being punished? I once watched The View in the waiting area when I got called for jury duty. I was almost hoping they would pick me for a trial to make the pain stop.

you're a moron.ROH draws 700-2500,have some of the best WRESTLERS in the world,and are the REAL alternative to the WWE,not that crap that's called TNA

Trish is half right. The problem isn't that the WWE has too many women. The problem is that they have too many diva search castoffs. There are a few good ones like Maryse but there are far more talentless, overhyped women like Michelle McManjaw.

This video doesn't really help Larry Sweeney's "ROH is bad because I have a mental illness that's TOTALLY under control" defense.

Really? Maryse? The same Maryse who had one of the worst matches in recent memory with Gail Kim on Smackdown last week? The same Maryse who seemingly only knows how to properly do one move, her finish?

That's silly. So if they had 27 women who weren't Diva Search castoffs it'd be okay? No.

Just like the rest of ROH Sweeney can't sell water to people on fire.

the closest Crazy Larry will ever get to a WWE contract is his one shot deal as the fake Nick Hogan

Am I the only one who sees Sweet 'n' Sour being "acquired" by The Embassy?
Posted By: Guest#8503 (Guest) on April 20, 2009 at 05:45 PM
As a gay man, and a huge fan of The View, I'm REALLY looking forward to MVP's appearance. It's like the best of both worlds!!
Posted By: Ron Mexico (Guest) on April 20, 2009 at 05:46 PM
If S & S Inc. does become the new Embassy, God help Nana if he ever tries to use Sara Del Rey as a footstool like he did Jade Chung.

I read Sweeney's insane myspace blog earlier and enjoyed the perfection of the translate button at the bottom of the article.
Totally ridiculous.

Maryse is awesome, improved tenfold since she's been in the WWE.
Oh & give Beth Phoenix a world/wwe championship run!

Trish needs to come back and get naked in a WWE films movie
Posted By: Charles (Guest) on April 21, 2009 at 02:48 AM
