Pinfall Recall
The Best Wrestling You’ve Ever Heard

WWE

Vince hates his leakage

Vince McMahon was said to be irate when word got out that Christian was going to be Jeff Hardy’s attacker so they ended up changing plans with Matt Hardy and Christian switching roles.

On Sunday afternoon before the No Way Out PPV, WWE actually placed a huge tarp around the Elimination Chamber as the wrestlers were planning out their match so none of the crew could see what was going on. WWE was worried that Edge’s role on the show would leak on the internet just like Matt Hardy’s heel turn leaked shortly before the Royal Rumble PPV.

Matt hardly believes in Jeff

- Matt Hardy has posted a blog talking about why he didn’t interfere with Jeff Hardy’s involvement in last night’s Elimination Chamber Match. Hardy wrote: “At No Way Out in Seattle, I gave you the opportunity to win the WWE Title inside of the Elimination Chamber. I listened very closely to what you had to say on Smackdown last week. You said you were going to “move on” and win the WWE Title regardless of what I wanted. You also mentioned that you hoped this issue between us will one day pass over.

So from the bottom of my heart, I didn’t interfere with your Elimination Chamber appearance and/or match. Nor did I need to.. You failed like you always do. I wanted to reinforce to everyone what a failure you truly are-how you can never pull through and succeed in a “big time” atmosphere. How you always choke. It’s nothing new though.”

Hardy added: “I’m afraid the WWE is not big enough for the both of us. I recommend you do the smartest thing possible for your life and livelihood right now. And that’s walk out of the WWE and my life. You have until Friday to make your decision.”

Mas SS DVD’s

- WWE has plans to release an DVD anthology box set on the Survivor Series.

- Mr. Kennedy has some appearances lined up next month as he will be participating in the Youth and Government Day at Keystone College in Clarks Summit, PA, between 9:30 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. on Friday, March 13. He will also be at the Houston Rockets vs. Los Angeles Clippers game at the Toyota Center in Houston, TX between 6:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. to meet fans.

- RAW Superstar “Hacksaw” Jim Duggan was at the Variety Club of Iowa telethon this past weekend in Des Moines.

- WWE.com has updated Sim Snuka’s profile photo to reflect his current plain black T-shirt gimmick. He’s also now being billed from his place of birth, Lā’ie, Hawaii, instead of “The Other Side of the Tracks.” Snuka, as well as Manu, have not appeared on television since their beatdown at the hands of Legacy on the January 12, 2009 episode of Raw. The two second generational wrestlers have not resurfaced at house shows or WWE’s developmental promotion either, so their current status in the company remains in question.

Regal, Punk’s only fan?

- The new WWE Champion Triple H is celebrating his 13th World Title reign as WWE.com’s Superstar of the Day today.

- The dark match before No Way Out last night was Melina defending her WWE Women’s Title successfully against Beth Phoenix.

- According to a fan in attendance, former WWE Diva Amy “Lita” Dumas” was at Friday’s RAW/ECW house show in Los Angeles. The fan saw Lita with a hoodie on, and no one seemed to recognize her. He did, but didn’t want to blow her cover. The fan also saw ZZ Top, Arsenio Hall and Michael Clark Duncan at the event.

- The Daily Star has an interview up with RAW star William Regal talking about his heart scare following WWE’s tour of Europe last November. “I had a bit of a strange episode after the tour – I thought it was a touch of flu, but it turned out to be trouble from years ago with my heart,” Regal told The Star. “When it happened before, I kept it quiet on medication, but this time I had ablation therapy just after Thanksgiving, where they put the tubes up through my hip. I’m not sure if they could have done it years ago!”

Regal also discussed his recent program with CM Punk and he believes they could have done a lot more. “I honestly believe we haven’t scratched the surface on what we can do together,” Regal said. “I’ve been fan of Punk for a long time now. I’d heard about him from his work with ROH. If I liked him before, I’m very impressed now.”

Regal says he doesn’t let anyone else’s opinion of Punk affect him, as he knows what the Intercontinental Champion is capable of in the ring. “It’s been a long time since I found anyone in the ring who I have this sort of special connection with,” Regal said. “His rep doesn’t bother him or me; some like him, some don’t.”

Cena was homeless?

Former World Heavyweight Champion John Cena was interviewed before last night’s No Way Out pay-per-view by Jim Moore of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. You can read the entire article at SeattlePI.NWSource.com. Some highlights:

- Ten years ago this summer, Cena was folding towels and cleaning toilets at Gold’s Gym in Venice Beach, California, while living out of his car.

- Sorry ladies - Cena is engaged and says, “I’m gonna get married this year.”

- Cena wants to be a role model and says it means a lot to him when parents say their kids look up to him. “I don’t know when it happened, but nowadays it seems like nobody cares,” Cena said. “Our main figures are collapsing around us. People don’t seem to know that other people are watching them.”

- What happened with Alex Rodriguez and the steroids revelations sickened him. He actually thinks if everyone really wants to get serious about cleaning up the game, “they should send the guys to jail.” As for steroids, Cena understands why his incredible physique may draw some steroid speculation. “I’m not only a guy who will say I’m clean, but I’ll beat my chest to the world that I’m clean,” he said. “I have very, very strong opinions on that.”

- With his movie career taking off, Cena seems to like the idea that he could be the next Arnold Schwarzenegger or Sylvester Stallone action star. “That’s a giant void in cinema,” Cena said. “Everywhere I go, the question is always: ‘Who’s the next guy?’ I think I’m damn near the closest thing to come around the pike.” Wow, is he serious?

TNA

Another TNA FAIL Game?

- Several TNA stars worked the New Japan event this past Sunday. Beer Money defeated Masahiro Chono & AKIRA, Kurt Angle defeated Giant Bernard and Team 3D defended their IWGP Tag Titles against Toru Yano & Togi Makabe. Angle will be challenging IWGP Champion Hiroshi Tanahashi on Japan on March April 5th, the day of WrestleMania.

- TNA is expected to be signing new Knockouts soon.

- Satanico el Exotico is scheduled for the TNA iMPACT tapings next week.

- Jakks will begin working on TNA’s action figure line next month in preparation for their January 2010 release.

- Despite Midway Games filing for bankruptcy and owing TNA several thousand dollars, they have began work on TNA’s next video game as late as a few weeks ago. It’s believed they are trying to get the game done and out as soon as possible so it can be credited to Midway’s assets.

- Word going around Puerto Rico is that TNA has purchased a stake in IWA Puerto Rico, but it may just be an angle they are doing down there. LAX won the IWA Tag Team Titles last week and Samoa Joe also worked for the promotion last week. Speaking of Puerto Rico, TNA has a live event scheduled there on 3/20.
