Wrestlemania XXIV to Be a Star-Studded Event
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Music, Sports, Television,
When did wrestling become so hip?
Okay - I admittedly am not a fan of the ‘sport’, so when I hear something related to the letters WWE, I usually flip the channel. But when the topic starts invading shows like Project Runway, you kind of have to take notice.
While I don’t find it surprising that Snoop Dogg and Dancing with the Stars’ Floyd Mayweather have been linked to this year’s Wrestlemania event, others names seem a bit out of place.
First off, John Legend is scheduled to perform during the March 30 Wrestlemania XXIV spectacular in Orlando. The R&B singer, yes R&B, will get the program started with his rendition of “America the Beautiful.” Then there’s Raven-Symone. The Disney Channel star will host a ‘wish-granting event’ during that same weekend.
Disney and wrestling? When did I become so uncool?

After ten years with the CW/UPN organizations, the wrestlers of the WWE are now in search of a new home. Friday Night Smackdown - a decent ratings earner for the network - wasn’t apparently considered worthy of its renewal price. Displeased with recent negotiations, World Wrestling Entertainment has started shopping its product around town.
Although the loss of the show will now create a two-hour void in CW‘s weekend lineup, the network will now have a place to shelve their experiments gone wrong (e.g. Crowned: The Mother of All Pageants). Or maybe they can use the spot to air marathons of America’s Next Top Model or Beauty and the Geek?
Whatever they ultimately do, they have until Sept. 12th to figure it out.

Project Runway: Season 4: ‘Raw Talent’
Posted by Jacci Lewis Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Bravo, Cable, Features,
What is the polar opposite of high fashion? I’m guessing professional wrestling after watching tonight’s episode of Project Runway on Bravo. Tonight’s challenge had the six remaining designers creating a look for the Divas of WWE. (That stands for World Wrestling Entertainment for the uninitiated.)
This challenge took the lingerie and figure skating challenges of seasons past to a whole new and tackier level. You don’t need a degree from Parsons to know that under the best of circumstances it is hard to make spandex, stretchy lace and rhinestones classy or wearable.
Despite the violence they inflict in the ring, the Divas of WWE seem like fairly nice gals. They requested outfits that best showcased their wrestling alter egos… like the sexy tomboy or sexy gold digger or my favorite: the classy sexpot.

WWE RAW Reflections (12/17)

Fresh off of last night’s Armageddon pay-per-view, it’s time for Monday Night RAW! Last night, Edge became the World Heavyweight Champion by defeating Batista and The Undertaker, WWE Champion Randy Orton retained the title over Chris Jericho when JBL interfered and Shawn Michaels beat Mr. Kennedy. Tonight, we’ve got a big divas match, Ric Flair vs. Umaga, a tag title match and a big return to RAW.
The show kicks off with a delicious “Santa’s Little Helper” match featuring Victoria, Layla, Jillian Hall and Melina taking on Kelly Kelly, Mickie James, Michelle McCool and Maria. Jillian opened with her usual entertaining destruction of a Christmas classic. All the girls look absolutely amazing. Kelly Kelly has really gangly looking legs. Lillian Garcia accidentally announced Kelly with the heel team - awkward. Maria wrestled the least, while Kelly botched a move at some point. McCool is starting to get some respect and seems to be getting to work a good portion of women’s matches. Once again, Mickie seems to be the sexiest of all the divas. I don’t know what it is, man. She is just on fire. Mickie scores the pin on Victoria for the win. Couple of nice impact moves and sells from Melina in this one.
Join me after the jump to find out which retired WWE Champion is joining the RAW roster.

WWE Smackdown Spoilers (12/7)

We saw a lot of really bizarre things on last few episodes of WWE Friday Night Smackdown. First we saw a disgusting make-out session between “The Rated-R Superstar” Edge and Vickie Guerrero, and then we saw the return of Teddy Long, which would ultimately lead to the making of a huge triple threat match between The Undertaker, Edge and Batista at Armageddon, with the World Heavyweight Championship on the line. Oh yeah, and this whole ECW/Smackdown talent exchange thing continues, so we can expect to see the boys of ECW as well.
Which superstar got speared so hard that he was out cold for five minutes? Find out in this week’s spoilers after the jump.

WWE Monday Night RAW opens with “Y2J” Chris Jericho in the ring doing his whole “me want title shot” schtick. Jericho replays the video of WWE Champion Randy Orton accepting Jericho’s challenge for Armageddon. Orton comes out and it’s pretty much more of the same. The two get in each others faces - threat, threat, threat - and it almost comes to blows. Of course, Regal comes out and stops them. Orton and Jericho will pick each other’s opponents for the night. It would make sense for them to make Jericho face Flair. Now, that would be a good match. Instead, Jericho will face Umaga. Orton will face off against Shawn Michaels. Not bad main events!
After the jump, three WWE legends and an “Attitude Era” tag team make surprise “returns”!

This week on Friday Night Smackdown, there are a lot of questions that need to be answered, including why Edge returned at SS to cost The Undertaker the WWE World Heavyweight Championship in the “Hell in the Cell.” The answer might surprise you.
Join me after the jump to find out which legendary WCW and WWF tag team made a dark match appearance, as well as a moment that will have you saying, “Edge made out with who???”
