WWE BLURRING LOGOS, LESNAR'S TANTRUM BACKSTAGE, MORRISON IN TNA AND MORE

Is Joseph Parks being played by Abyss without his mask?  If not, then the resemblence is creepy.

Parks and Abyss are indeed the same person.

My question is regarding the backstage blowup with Brock Lesnar. Now normally, I don't like when wrestlers take a loss or a storyline to heart because although at times real, results are predetermined. You are there to do your job. But I can't help but side with Lesnar on this one. Not only for his own sake, but for the company's sake. If Cena was originally suppose to be carried out and instead took the mic to address the audience, the WWE are pure idiots, not only because of misleading Lesnar, but for their own "legit" storyline sake. Any human who would have taken that kind of a beating from Lesnar would be in the hospital. And again the WWE managed to screw it up. I don't know if it was Cena who messed up and double crossed Lesnar, but he not only double crossed Lesnar, he double crossed the company. Your thoughts?

Nothing happened that night that WWE didn't want to happen.  My feeling is that if there was a change or 'double-cross', it was on management's end and since they want Lesnar to be a big part of Wrestlemania, they probably feel that by the time the show rolls around, no one will remember either - and they will be right.

Hey, is there any word regarding John Morrison joining TNA soon? Hulk Hogan mentioned that he, along with Chris Masters, has been calling up TNA wanting to be apart of this new open fight concept.

No word.  I believe it was likely Hogan just throwing things out there to get attention for the company.

how the hell do you have Lesnar lose? I haven't seen the PPV but honestly how can that be the finish? no wonder this company is going down the drain.

I honestly don't have a problem with him losing since he brought the fight so hard to Cena.  Lesnar lost nothing in my mind.

I've noticed a pretty bad trend that you might be able to clear.  WWE has blurred out the scratch WWF logo in their footage due to violating their agreement with the World Wildlife Fund.  The original WWF logo used to remain intact and not blurred on footage.  It seems now, however, WWE has begun blurring out that logo too!  I saw the past 2 recent "Are Your Serious?" Youtube videos and nearly every instance of the old logo has been blurred out like the Attitude one.  Has legal decreed that even that logo is a violation?

No, my gut is that whoever was producing those segments chose to blur the footage.  It often comes down to the head Producer in charge and their discretion.
