Posted by Ashish on 07.29.2008
Actor joins WWE creative team and more!
- Believe it or not, WWE has hired actor Freddie Prinze, Jr. (Scooby-Doo, She's All That, I Know What You Did Last Summer) as a new member of the creative team. He was at the RAW/Saturday Night's Main Event taping last night and has attended several WWE events over the past few months including WrestleMania. He has been a big fan for awhile and has also been a "celebrity blogger" on the WWE Fan Nation site. Prinze is married to actress Sarah Michelle Gellar.
- Stephanie and Triple H's new daughter has been named Murphy Claire Levesque.
- Here is the non-spoiler card for WWE Saturday Night's Main Event.
* John Cena, Cryme Tyme, & Batista, vs. JBL, Kane, Ted DiBiase, & Cody Rhodes
* Jeff Hardy vs. Edge
* The Great Khali vs. Jimmy Wang Yang
- The Undertaker will be on the cover of the newest issue of WWE Magazine.
This is a problem, now HHH is burrying his own children! Murphy? Seriously?

Freddy Prince Jr.? Really? That's kinda cool.
If Sarah Michelle Gellar ever shows up, it will be the best thing in the history of ever.
(Sarah vs. Mickie @ Wrestlemania! BOOK IT!)
Posted By: Greg (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 12:53 AM
haha wow Freddie wow
and Murphy
MURPHY? what the fuck Paul, what the fuck
Posted By: Drue (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 12:53 AM
Buffy the Slayer vs Mickie James!! BOOK IT!
Posted By: greggagnesucks (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 12:54 AM
An hour ago I could not have imagined that I'd get to do this, but here it goes... I BLAME FREDDIE PRINZE FOR MAKING ADAMLE THE G.M. OF RAW!!
... a little catharsis goes a long way in these troubling times....
Posted By: KanyonKreist (Registered) on July 29, 2008 at 12:55 AM
Also, Murphy?
Her initials are MCL. That's gotta be Triple H's idea of a joke.
Kidding aside, congratulations to both Hunter and Steph.
Posted By: Greg (again) (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 12:58 AM
Well, at least Freddie's career can't get any worse.
Oh wait, it just did.
Posted By: Dirk (Registered) on July 29, 2008 at 01:06 AM
Nice, FPJr married Buffy... so he must be creative.
Freddy and Sarah vs Santino and Beth - MANY MANY OH SO MANY BUYS~!!!
Posted By: Brad (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 01:13 AM
I don't see it as THAT big of a deal that he's on creative. He sounds like a big fan, and I'd rather have actual wrestling fans creating things for the show than the TV show/movie writers they sometimes hire that could give a shit about wrestling.
Posted By: KX (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 01:18 AM
The last scentence for the Freddy Prince Jr. thing was pointless
everything else however is interesting.
Matt P pretty much nailed it on the head about HHH daughter name
Posted By: Colin (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 01:20 AM
Holy crap, you mean Mike Adamle being named GM wasn't the worst thing that happened to the WWE today. Freddie Prinze Jr., that talentless hack who thinks squinting is acting is now going to have some say in the industry I almost lost the use of my arm for. UGH!!! Please SMG divorce that do(_)chebag so he can start to suffer as much as the people who actually sat through Summer Catch or Down to You.

Bob Saget has been named the new voice of extreme on ECW!
While WWE is bringing in faded teen idols in the company why dont they next bring in the guy from 7th Heaven Barry Watson and be Vickie's new lover. Hell, have the damn Jonas Brothers win the tag titles! Epic Win!
Posted By: Josh (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 02:07 AM
LMFAO
Freddie Prinze on the wwe staff...Mike Adamle as GM....Murphy?!?...Khali in the main event for a world title
EPIC MOTHERFUCKING FAIL!
Where's the wwe fan boys now to stick up for the company and explain this dog crap of a product

Freddie Prinze, Jr. as a new member of the creative team?
What!?
HHH names his daughter Murphy?
Posted By: Brent (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 02:28 AM
Whoa, Khali VS Jimmy. Been craving to see this happen. Can Jimmy's high-flying style stand up to the over 7 foot monster?!
Posted By: Ammoo (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 02:54 AM
really, mr. michelle gellar is on the creative team...alright...whatever.
Posted By: Guest#4104 (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 02:58 AM
It could be a LOT worse. They could've hired Pauly Shore.

Freddy + Murphy = a sequence of words that sounds a bit like 'Eddie Murphy'.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha, etc.

Now that I think about it, Freddie Prinze Jr was on the Dirt Sheet a while back.
Posted By: KM (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 04:19 AM
As any good comic book fan knows, WWE must now rehire Hulk Hogan, because HULK SMASH FREDDIE PRINZE JR!
Posted By: poffo316 (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 04:54 AM
Freddie Prinze Jr sucks at acting & he will suck as a writer. Also his wife Sarah Michelle Gellar is a skank.The Mc mahons have lost their minds.
Posted By: WWE is going down. (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 05:19 AM
Wow. Let the "WWE is going out of business" bullshit begin.
Seriously. If Freddie is a lifelong fan, maybe he will know what other fans want. All I will say about Freddie is as long as he is just on creative and not on TV or in the ring or anything like that, then why bitch, piss, moan, whine or cry about it?
Posted By: Rob Z (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 05:55 AM
Murphy is a boy name!!!
Posted By: Champ (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 06:12 AM
We all know what Freddie Prinze Jr. is doing this summer. He truly is a summer catch for the WWE. Finally, someone has realized that he's all that. A commander for the writing wing of the WWE we can be proud of.

I guess you could say things are "LOOKING GOOOOD!" for Raw
Posted By: Guest (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 07:13 AM
Judging Prinze Jr's writing skills based on his acting...."talent" is the most retarded thing this community has done in a while.

(simulation, not actual news)
Fred Durst has quit Limp Bizkit and decided to become a farmer.

All he sang about was fighting and fucking. And he's going to plant corn now....what a fucking moron. He ain't got the chops.

Fred Durst ruined Behind Blue Eyes. surely he cannot work a tractor.

I wonder how that went?
Posted By: SirCrudNoodles (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 08:02 AM
Why the FUCK would you name your daughter "Murphy" Jesus I hate parents who give their children retarded names. Murphy will be a huge bull dyke when she gets older
Posted By: natedoggcata (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 08:04 AM
I'll be honest. We shouldn't judge Freddie Prinze Jr. too harshly. I mean he could have been a fan for a really, really long time and actually wanted to do this instead of acting. We don't know for sure. I mean what other reason could a celebrity have for joining a wrestling creative team?

I didnt know Steph and Trips were such big fans of Robocop.

Don't mess with Saget, he's hardcore.
If that ever happened.. ECW wouldn't be pg anymore.
Posted By: Marky(OH)Mark (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 08:56 AM
Better Murphy than McKenzie or McGregor...
Stephanie being Irish-American MIGHT have something to do with the unusual name.
Famous people giving their children unusual names ain't UNUSUAL you idiots..
Posted By: Propagandhi (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 09:02 AM
did he really name his kid after a early 90s old hag of a tv character?
Posted By: stronelis (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 09:08 AM
LOL! Really? Hey, don't knock it yet, everybody. If we get to see his wife, Sarah Michelle Gellar, in the ring now it will be worth it. LOL! Okay, so I doubt that would happen, but it would be great. Wait... maybe I should take that back, though. She'd probably suck as a wrestler, but they'd put the Women's Title on her anyway. Nevermind... maybe that isn't such a good idea. LOL!
Posted By: RavenEffect (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 09:32 AM
First "Aurora" then "Murphy" . . . sounds like the Tuesday afternoon shift at a Southie strip bar.

this just in...TNA just hired Matthew Lillard for their creative team.
Posted By: setobakura (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 09:54 AM
GAH!!! You know-- this MAKES SENSE: King referenced Buffy last night during the Santino/Beth segment.
Posted By: M:-X (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 10:06 AM
Oh, just fyi-- I meant the reference makes sense, not the decision ;-)
Posted By: M:-X (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 10:06 AM
I hate HHH, his wife, and their family.
Posted By: Joe Mastronardo (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 10:41 AM
Congratulations to H's and Steph. Naming the baby after 'Skull' Murphy is a wonderful tribute to wrestling history. (or is she named after Murphy Brown)...So now we break the trend of people with two first names as their whole name by having people with two last names as their whole name????
Posted By: Charlie (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 10:55 AM
Jake Roberts and Tim Haught can't get on WWE creative, but fucking She's All That can?
Posted By: Tim Haught (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 12:32 PM
Murphy!?!?!
HHH gave birth to Robocop?
Posted By: OCP (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 12:34 PM
I've been a wrestling fan for 24 years and I'm bad at acting as well because I never took any acting classes and I never act. Does this mean that I too have a chance at being on WWE's creative team?
Posted By: Chico (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 12:36 PM
I wouldn't doubt that freddie could come up with better storylines then that lame ass tna bullshit.
Posted By: Jake (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 02:38 PM
"Murphy!?!?!
HHH gave birth to Robocop?
Posted By: OCP (Guest)"
Yes, he remembered the legends told about him in WCW back when he was wrestling under his real name of Jean-Paul Levesque.
Posted By: OCD (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 03:10 PM
The WWE is going to have their 3rd golden and I can feel it as someone stated before. Raw has been good since the Draft, alot of young talent, ECW the best wrestling with good ratings, and Smackdown! getting better in time for their move in the fall.
Freddie and Mike Adamle will lead the WWE. Everybody wants to judge this negatively for no reason.
Posted By: Hot Pocket (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 03:35 PM

What is worse is that you're probably someone who watches wrestling for "wrestling".

Yes, he used his real name in WCW, but his French accent was fake. He sounded like Pepe La Pew.
Posted By: Chico (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 05:55 PM
Alright I've got to ask, what's an actor doing overseeing creative of pro wrestling. Being a mark doesn't mean you've actually got a clue how to book or make up storylines. A TV show writer who is a wrstling mark, sure go ahead. a Magazine writer like Russo? it's risky but it might work. but an actor?
Then again his from inside hollywood perspective might help them connect with the younger audience and if he's a serious mark and reasonably intelligent he probably won't hurt things too much.
Cross your fingers WWE fans, Vince's crazy decisions are no longer limited to kayfabe.
Posted By: Davis (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 09:10 PM
"Jake Roberts and Tim Haught can't get on WWE creative, but fucking She's All That can? "
Well, Jake kind of has that whole drug problem working against him..
Posted By: timmy (Guest) on July 29, 2008 at 09:26 PM
OK, we have fans who claim they know how to book stuff and can whine and complain about storylines and state that they can write stuff so much better if they were in charge. Now we have an actual fan who's on the team and we have people claiming he doesn't know what he's doing.
