So what's the deal? Is Kanyon gay? Or was that just an attempt at some publicity?

This might not sound like much since it's only January 5th but best comment of the year.

Actually you're confusing it with the dreck movies the WWE makes.

Sprite, you sir are an idiot.

Hey Sprite, Why don't you shut the 7 fuck up! The wrestler is an awesome movie that will win awards. You would like it more if it starred the black hole charisma-like cunt Dave Baldtista. You should be jealous that you would never know quality if it bit you on your rear-side. I prefer Sierra Mist anyway, just ask Mr. Kennnnnnnnnnneeeeeddddyyyyy, Kennnnnnedddddyyyyy!!!!

what is with making fun of Kanyon? he is a great in ring talent, a great talker on the mike and is winning his lawsuit against vince macmann and is a super nice guy who never pushes deeper than you want.
leave kanyon alone

If Harris could drop 20 pounds, AMW could actually do some damage in the WWE, especially paired with Gail. Have Gail debut by talking sh!t to an established face team (the Colons? Jesse & Festus) for a few weeks, and have AMW debut as a monster heel team by destroying them.

It's only in 18 theaters due to being a limited release, stupid. That's 18 more than what Behind Enemy Lines: Columiba will be showing on.
If it does well at awards time it's going to certainly go wide.

It's out in Toronto, saw it last week amazing movie! Rourke was unbelieveable, definately a must see even if you're not a wrestling fan.

Seriously guys you need to stop falling for "sprite's" stupid comments.
She only comes on here to write stupid shit like:
"The wrestler sucks"
"I'm not watching that"
"(Insert Wrestler name here) was a terrible worker"
She only writes that stuff so she can come back on here and see what people wrote back to her.
She's just lonely and needs a good man in her life.
It's just too bad no dudes from her high school will touch her no matter how hard up they are!!!

I'd watch the impact if harris returns just to listen to all the 'Braden Walker' chants.
Posted By: Metalingus (Guest) on January 05, 2009 at 07:18 PM
So is Kanyon really gay or was it just a one time deal?
Posted By: Guest#1940 (Guest) on January 05, 2009 at 08:13 PM
