More WWE News: Mysterio and Big Show Need Surgery, Bragging Rights DVD, Piggy James, Hornswoggle Update, More
Posted by Larry Csonka on 11.23.2009
More WWE news…
- Rey Mysterio will be getting knee surgery, which is why they did the stretcher job last night.
- The Big Show got choked out during the finish of last night's World Title match as he also needs knee surgery, which is why he was wearing the big brace on his left knee.
- Hornswoggle will be out at least a few weeks selling Triple H's Pedigree.
- Referee Scott Armstrong suffered a concussion last night when Sheamus accidentally kicked him in the back of the head. He was in bad shape last night, but is said to be doing much better today.
- For those that have been wondering, Mickie James did know about the "Piggy James" sketch on Smackdown before going to the ring. They even did a run through of the segment earlier that day.
- The 2009 Bragging Rights DVD will be released tomorrow.
- For those that have been wondering, Mickie James
did know about the "Piggy James" sketch on Smackdown before going to the ring. They even did a run through of the segment earlier that day.
Absolutely classless WWE, way to tell the world that you think any girl who is not a size 0-2 is fat. Cross the line Mickie.

Did Rey just come back from knee surgery? Looks like tagging with Jericho is bad luck. Second partner that needs surgery. Who's next?

--------------------------------------
You ever seen the style and pace the guy wrestles, mate? Those injuries are inevitable, especially when a guy like Rey has been doing it for 20 years.
But the roids certainly don't help his overall health.
Posted By: Guest#1979 (Guest) on November 23, 2009 at 01:22 PM
I look for Jerishow to lose titles tonight. Possibly with Jericho turning on his partner for costing him the title. rember Jericho was not pined last night. So Jericho can say he never lost.
Posted By: Paul (Guest) on November 23, 2009 at 01:36 PM
There is NOTHING wrong with meat on the bones. More divas should be like Mickie and Layla(Mmmmmmmmmmmmm...)
Rey Rey is injured AGAIN? So the dark period when he was World Champion for 4 months in 2006 is pretty much the last time he was around for any sustained length of time. Let TNA have him. Everybody is sick of him.

Dang! A legit ref bump! That doesn't happen very often! Looking at the replay though, Seamus caught him good on the back of his head with his knee. ouch!

Yeah, Mickie is without a doubt the hottest diva on the WWE roster.
As for the segment? ACTING!

Rey blows out a knee every year.
Posted By: Guest#0633 (Guest) on November 23, 2009 at 01:51 PM
There's a difference between having meat on your bones and being fat. Mickie crossed that line awhile ago. You never see anyone make fat jokes about Beth Phoenix, even though she is much bigger than Mickie because Beth isn't fat. Natalya is also someone else that has a healthier body. Mickie is fat, deal with it.
With Batista and Big Show out, that opens up spots at the top of both shows. I don't know about Punk, but I want to see Kofi take that spot on Raw, as does pretty much everyone else. Please don't screw this up WWE, you've got a legitimate breakout potential star on your hands in Kofi, and you've got the opening at the top, run with it instead of killing the momentum. Hell, I might even flip to Raw during MNF and stick with it if Kofi is doing stuff.
Posted By: Guest#5107 (Guest) on November 23, 2009 at 01:51 PM
We might get a classic Jericho promo tonight, where he dumps Big Show as a weak link and then searches for a new tag partner. CM Punk would be good. Christian would be better if he wasn't a face. I also wouldn't mind some Regal.

Posted By: Guest#4708 (Guest) on November 23, 2009 at 02:08 PM
alot of the angles and storylines the wwe has run never offended. it is just a show. but what they are doing with mickie is shameful. dont be surprised all the little girls in the audience wearing cena jerseys are in the restrooms puking between matches.

No she isn't-she is tiny by ANY standard. And she is WAAAAAAAAAAAY hotter than that twink McCool.
You are stupid. Deal with it.

of course she knew. this is pro-wrestling I can't see WWE being so unprofessional they don't tell someone and just embarass her ass. (well judging from the skit, Michelle should be embarrased that was HORRIBLE)

Posted By: Jeremy t (Guest) on November 23, 2009 at 02:18 PM
Well, for once Mickie actually did a decent amount of acting there. Still, you got to wonder if her facial reactions were at least somewhat legit. Just because she knew about the segment, doesn't mean it didn't bother her. She knows it reflects the way WWE feels about her right now. And weight is one of the most sensitive subjects for women.
If I were WWE, I'd be more mad at her for losing all of her ability in the ring. Somebody needs to explain to me what makes her better than any other diva at this point, because I don't see it. She flat out sucks in the ring now.
I think it's time to call it a career. Would love to hear a shoot interview from her. She's been a part of some interesting moments, to say the least.

Posted By: Guest#7455 (Guest) on November 23, 2009 at 02:22 PM
No shit that Mickie knew what was gonna happen on SD last week. Like they could put together an impromptu like that.
Mickie has been putting on weight and it's hindering her ring performance. That said, her along with Layla and Michelle McCool have the best asses out of all the Divas.
Posted By: Guest#3324 (Guest) on November 23, 2009 at 02:29 PM
"Christian would be better if he wasn't a face."
What would be wrong with turning him heel? He's a better heel anyway.
Posted By: guest (Guest) on November 23, 2009 at 02:30 PM
Mickie is putting on weight, that's a fact. That said she is still a gazillion times more attractive than MANLina (Melina) who looks a cross between a shark and a duck.
But ya she is fat (or getting fatter). Beth Phoenix and Natalya are probably heavier but that's likely to be muscle and not fat. They're well regarded despite being 'bigger' than the average Diva because they can be trusted to carry a match. You either gotta be hot, or reasonably attractive but with some wrestling skill (like Beth and Nat).
Posted By: Caprice Classic (Guest) on November 23, 2009 at 02:34 PM
Saying "Mickie is fat" is an objectively wrong statement. She's not even chubby. She's slightly thicker than the other girls. That's about it.
Posted By: Wade (Guest) on November 23, 2009 at 02:45 PM
@Guest#5107 - You suck minutes out of your life just to write a post on how Mickie James is indeed fat. Bitter, angry and stupid you sound. Such a fat woman has a strange hold on you, doesn't she?

Mickie isn't morbidly obese, but if she does stay in WWE, she might want to wear something more flattering. (Hide the tummy.)
Actually, they might want to run an angle around it -- like she's representing the "normal" gals in the WWE Universe.

I think WWE is doing the Mickie James is fat thing more to attract girls to the show than anything else. Think about it, someone's being picked on because of her weight by bully's. It'll be a good angle to show children that weight doesn't mean anything and that you need to defend yourself from these bully's. Mickie is turning into Cena for kids!

Well, that's one way of putting a positive spin on this. Too bad it's already been confirmed that the segment was WWE's "subtle" way of knocking her on national TV. Just because she went along with it doesn't mean it isn't punishment. My main problem with Mickie isn't the weight, because she really isn't fat. It's the fact that she sucks in the ring, and is ugly. Seriously, her face looks more like a pig than her body does.
Posted By: Guest#8329 (Guest) on November 23, 2009 at 03:39 PM
Jericho should bring in Swagger, that would give the team even more heat.
Posted By: T-Mac (Guest) on November 23, 2009 at 03:42 PM
Mickie is white trash. WWE tried to clean her up for a few years, but she's starting to go back to her natural state. Anybody see how skanky she looked before she got to WWE? Well, that's what she is starting to look like again, only now she's thicker. She'll probaly be relieved when she's gone from wrestling. Then she won't have to have people debate her every week. But watch what happens to her when she isn't training for wrestling anymore. I guarantee you she will balloon up in weight for real.
Posted By: Guest#0186 (Guest) on November 23, 2009 at 03:43 PM
HA HA HA HA! I LOVED Piggy James! The funniest segment in ages!!!
Posted By: The Truth (Guest) on November 23, 2009 at 03:56 PM
She actually used to be slim. Remember the infamous Jenny Jones appearance from earlier this decade? Not an ounce of fat. Even when she was in her Alexis Laree days she was slim. If you're not a naturally thin person that's understandable but that should not be any excuse for sitting on your ass all day pigging out on McDonalds and drinking beer every night. In my opinion, Mickie needs to be getting pointers from Michelle McCool on how to get the best body in the company. McCool takes care of her figure and that's part of the reason WWE can rely on her to carry a match, something they have no faith in Mickie to do.

No work place in the world could get away with public saying someone's a fat pig, work or not that's called harassment. WWE has always been a classless company, and that's what makes Linda's political aspirations such a joke. This is a company where dozens of people have died from drug addictions/steroid abuse and an entire family was murdered by one of their employees.

We have a winner!!! Mickie has been living off of 2006 for too long now. I think because she got to work with those two, most fans assumed she was going to be the new flag bearer for the women. The problem is she's not nearly as good as either one of them, and pretty much bombed whenever she has been champion.
Maybe WWE has finally realised how short she has fallen of expectations, and are just using the weight gain as an excuse to punish her. Her recent hints of retirement ain't doing her any favors either. Why would they make somebody look good if they are thinking about leaving?
If Trish wasn't such a big star and so well liked and respected, she would have been jobbed out when she left too. Just accept the fact that this is more than likely the end of Mickie's WWE career, and it's not going to be pretty.
Posted By: Guest#9746 (Guest) on November 23, 2009 at 05:44 PM
Guest#5107, Mickie James's body shape is in no way unhealthy, and by anyone's standards (other than your own of course) she can not be considered fat. She is however, arguably the most sexually attractive diva for many reasons. Number one: How nice would that padded flesh feel next to your naked body (not that you have ever felt a woman's naked skin). Number two: She has a healthy shape for child bearing, which ultimately what attracts a male to a mate.

Michelle McCool can't wrestle worth a damn but has two things going for her: 1)She has the blond, slutty look that Vince likes, and 2) She's knocking boots with the Undertaker. Take those two things away and what does she add to the show? A break to go to the bathroom!
Posted By: Guest (Guest) on November 23, 2009 at 06:18 PM
wrong. the only reason wehy trish got a great sendoff was because she was close to the mcmahon family and they knew that she REALLY was RETIRING from the business. she had zero interest in going to stupid tna's impact zone sound stage for work.
as far as mickie goes, she is the most popular female in wwe and she is beautiful.
if she drops some pounds, it will improve her ring work and make wwe happy and they will continue to push her and give her more title reigns and maybe a move back to raw in 2010.

Stupid Mickie mark. She's not beautiful, first of all. She sort of does resemble a pig. She's not that popular either. I'm still waiting to see a match where she gets all these cheers I keep hearing about. Maybe I'm just deaf....
Her ring work has been terrible for years now. Forget the weight gain, that has nothing to do with it. She just sucks. And why the hell should WWE reward her with anything? The women's division is dead now, and she played a decent role in it's demise. I know, let's reward an unmotivated, out of shape wrestler with even more useless title reigns. That will really encourage her to improve!!!
Mickie James is the most overrated wrestler, male or female, this decade. I hate seeing her face on TV every week, and cannot wait until she either quits or gets fired.
Posted By: Guest#6259 (Guest) on November 23, 2009 at 08:16 PM
"Mickie is fat, deal with it."
Any male that thinks Mickie James is "fat" faps thinking about KIP James.
Not that there's anything wrong with that, but it's something you might want to talk to a professional about... so you can "deal with it."

Yeah, and what has Mickie done since 2006 to justify a continued push? That's the point people have been making, and it's valid. She has gotten very lazy in recent years, and should not be rewarded for it. McCool is a MUCH better wrestler at this point, and is actually trying to improve.
