LESNAR VS. GOLDBERG, MORRISON MOVIES, FIVE STAR WRESTLING ON SPIKE? AND MORE

By Mike Johnson on 2017-01-21 10:00:00

I just came across the movie Sinbad and The War of the Furies which came out in 2016 starting John Hennigan.  The movie poster states "WWE's John Morrison".  What is WWE's opinionl about their name and trademark being used for a movie starring a wrestler who hasn't been under contract with them in 5 years?

Without even asking, I am sure WWE isn't happy about that.

Do you think that WWE dropped the ball on the Lesnar/Goldberg storyline? I mean they could have done so much more with it while also promoting 2k17....For instance , they had the Lesnar/Shane moment.....I would have "had Shane bring Lesnar in to Smackdown" as his counter to Lesnar...Then both shows could have had their own "Beast" . They don't have much interaction together but they both could have still had separate moments leading to them going face to face at RR then ultimately WM.

No, actually I don't.  Goldberg wasn't going to be a performer who appeared weekly on TV.  His shocking defeat of Lesnar was good for shock value and getting people talking.  Since then, I've felt they've done a good job of building the anticipation for their eventual showdown inside the Royal Rumble

Since WWE has moved into the U.K. Market and placed restrictions on their talent that prevents them from performing on shows that stream on FloSlam, how does that effect Bates' and Seven's relationship with Chikara?  Mustache Mountain are the current champs and stream on their own Chikaratopia platform.

I think that one remains to be seen, although I wouldn't think it would be likely.  We have already heard that talents cannot appear on anything that

Is there any chance that the Five Star Wrestling special in the UK on Spike will migrate to the United States?

We checked with SpikeTV in the United States and was told no.

Did Anthem Media buy Stomper the Kangaroo in the TNA sale?

One can only hope.
