The management team of the Ultimate Warrior has issued a statement on his website regarding concern for Warrior’s safety in his return match this Wednesday in Barcelona, Spain. They are saying that a group called the “Anti-Warriors” launched a page on MySpace and are threatening to disrupt his return match. They also added: “This group claims to be 800 strong and says they will “disrupt” and even “stop” the event and they claim they will do it live on Warrior TV. This raises a serious security issue for the match.” You can read their message at http://ultimatewarriortv.com/blog/?p=57. It should be noted that it’s being speculated by many as a set-up to get people talking about the match.
On the Rotten Tomatoes website, which collects reviews from professional movie critics, Dwayne Johnson’s latest flick Get Smart received 65 favorable reviews and 63 bad reviews. The movie also garnered a 5.6 average rating. Roger Ebert gave Get Smart three-and-a-half stars, but didn’t say much about Johnson. eFilmCritic.com’s Dan Lybarger wrote, “Along with Speed Racer, Get Smart is the movie adaption of a TV show that nobody was particularly waiting for.” The flim did debut at #1 at the box office this weekend.
Starting one week from tomorrow night, AWA Wrestling will be airing at midnight EST instead of at 1:00 A.M on ESPN Classic. On Saturday, July 5 there’s going to be a marathon of the show from Noon to 7 p.m.
Jeff Hardy was scheduled to do an interview answering fans’ questions with SLAM! Wrestling, but there were some “phone issues” and he was unable to do it. They are working on rescheduling the interview as soon as possible. Chris Jericho is scheduled to do an interview tomorrow morning. He will be taking questions from fans.
I hope you all had a good weekend and as always I hope to see you on Tuesday night at 9EST for WrestleZone Radio. We’ll be talking the post-draft results this week so it should be a fun show.
