Who is Mr McMahon's Illegitimate Child Pt. 2

That's right! I said it! Part 2. Who is Mr. McMahon's illegitimate child?

Well, in case you have not heard the huge updates, Mr. Kennedy is NOT Mr. McMahon's Bastard Son! Isn't that fun? Especially when it is in bold. Let me rephrase that in bold again. Mr. McMahon's son is NOT Mr. Kennedy! See... Fun! This is all because Mr. Kennedy got suspended. So his whole deal as Mr. McMahon's son got dropped.

So we now need a whole new list of suspects. I'm not going to waste any energy saying it might be someone from Smackdown or ECW so here we go.

Triple H? Nah, probably not. That would imply that Stephanie McMahon's child was the result of incest, or is it step-incest, and I don't think that the WWE would want to go down that path, especially with all the bad press they are getting.

Shane McMahon? OK, so I am wasting energy being stupid, but so is the WWE... most of the time. Just play along for a second. We find out that Shane McMahon is adopted, but we also find out that the father is Vince McMahon. Eh, I'm mostly just writing this to make this article look longer then it really is.

Randy Orton? The Legend Killer? Legend Killer McMahon? Could it be? Is it possible? Am I asking to many questions? This one makes sense. Except if this happened, they would have to involve Cowboy Bob Orton. Who was released in 2006. If they went this way, and didn't use Cowboy Bob Orton it would be a mistake.

John Cena? His father is already involved in the storyline. It would be kind of neat. Except, that would mean even more John Cena, and we can't have that.

Jeff Hardy? At this point I am just naming names, but this isn't 100% crap. Mostly just around 83% crap.

Shawn Michaels? Well, this isn't going to happen, but I bet once the WWE decided not to let Mr. Kennedy be Mr. McMahon's father this name came up. The Undertaker didn't return at SummerSlam because the WWE currently wants to present the image of having an easy schedule. But recently HBK was apparently asked to come back a little early. Interesting.

Chris Jericho? Again with me naming names. This could be why the WWE has been talking to his agent though.

Shelton Benjamin? Let's hope not. Although still, perfectly possible.

(Let me pretend that this superstar can be on any brand for a moment or 2)

MVP? I think this is the only one on Smackdown it could possibly be.

Elijah Burke? Possible... not probable.

Alright, my guess is... ugh... John Cena... of course. If this happens, Cena will have to make a heel turn, or else it will make no sense.

Cryme Tyme Released

Cryme Tyme Released. OK, so 1st they fire Eugene, and now Shad and JTG. In the middle of a push of all things.

From what I have read, Cryme Tyme had some argument with Cade and Murdoch that got them fired. What?! I hope that isn't write, because I am home sick, and I would hate to hear that the WWE is firing people for no reason now.

Speaking of firing people, Eugene was apparently fired for violation of the WWE Wellness Policy. I always knew Eugene was on steroids. You don't get that buff naturally.

Also, Batista and Randy Orton are not going to be suspended. Randy Orton is not suspended, nor is Batista suspended. I hope that this is because that they have done nothing wrong, and not because that they are "too important" to suspend. Also, it is perfectly possible that they are delaying their suspensions. Anything is really possible.

Also, the feeling backstage at RAW today is that there is going to be more firings. But what do they mean? Well, probably that we are going to see more Mr. McMahon.

Speaking of Tommy Dreamer, he is now taking over the developmental territories. Apparently he's too old to wrestle. Too bad.

Sorry, I know this is like my worst post ever, but I am really sick. I'm going to bed. You may hear from me again today.

Eugene Fired/Randy Orton NOT Suspended/CM Punk

My God! I should not be allowed to be sick. I was sick all day yesterday, but at the end of the day, I went to go check my e-mail. My e-mail address is wwegeek@gmail.com by the way, feel free to e-mail me. Anyways, checking my e-mail, and someone had sent me an e-mail asking if I had heard the news on CM Punk.

"That's right!" I thought to myself. I didn't actually say it aloud for 2 reasons. 1, it would mean I was talking to myself. And 2, I had a cold. So if I would have said it aloud it would have sounded like "Thastsed bwipe". So I just avoided the situation all together.

But what I was saying that's right to, was that I had forgotten that ECW and SD were being recorded on Saturday September 1st. I hadn't even thought about it. I had been lying in bed, and watching football all day so I was quite distracted.

So I went to go read the spoilers, and what do I discover. On the ECW homepage it is advertising CM Punk winning the ECW championship. I would say I'm shocked, but that would by lying.

Also, Randy Orton will not be suspended... apparently. This is probably good, but I hope his not getting suspended because he didn't do anything wrong, and not because he's vital to storyline right now, and losing him would be too much.

Also, after getting squashed by Mark Henry, Eugene was fired.

WWE Suspensions Explain SummerSlam, RAW, and Smackdown Spoilers

For those of you who are not the best at connecting dots, I will do it for you. These 14 suspensions explain all the weird and odd match endings at SummerSlam. Here is the list of who was suspended again, and I will do some more explaining.

  • Mike "Simon Dean" Bucci
  • Gregory Helms
  • Edge
  • Charlie Haas
  • Santino Marella
  • William Regal
  • King Booker
  • Chavo Guerrero
  • John Morrison
  • Mr. Kennedy
  • Randy Orton
  • Funkai
  • Chris Master
  • and Batista
So, as I was saying, this all makes perfect sense. Although reading this list at first your jaw may be dropped so low it is now resting in your lap, trust me, this makes sense.

Let's start at the top. The top 3 don't really matter, Simon Dean, Gregory Helms, and Edge, because they are not currently wrestling. While Charlie Haas is somewhat irrelevant, and the Santino, Maria, and Ron Simmons angle was completely worked out of RAW last Monday.

William Regal is a little harder to explain, but he wasn't involved in any feuds so he will slip out nicely. King Booker's angle with Triple H wasn't continued, so he'll slip out easily too.

Now, I don't want to give away to much from the Smackdown Spoilers I read, but I will say Chavo wasn't in the show. So Chavo too, slips out nicely.

John Morrison is by far the toughest to explain. I think the fact that he kept the ECW title means that these suspensions are short. Also, ECW doesn't need him on TV. He could have shot some promos last Tuesday, and they could just air them in these coming weeks. So they don't really need him there.

Mr. Kennedy makes sense too. This may be why he didn't win the IC Championship like many were expecting. Same goes for Randy Orton only with the WWE Title.

Funkai is irrelevant, and so is Chris Masters, for the most part. I will say that from the spoilers I read, his new angle could involve him being gone for a few weeks.

Finally Batista. (Again, trying not to tell to much about Smackdown) All I will say is that the feud with The Great Khali isn't going to continue.

See? Perfect sense.

WWE Suspends 11 Superstars... Big Superstars

OK so apparently these people are suspended for getting internet prescriptions.

Here is their official statement regarding it.

STAMFORD, Conn., August 30, 2007 - Based on independent information received from investigators from the Albany County, NY D.A.’s office, WWE has today, under the penalty provisions of its wellness policy, issued suspension notices to 10 of its performers for violations. It has been WWE’s practice not to release the names of those who have been suspended, but notice has been sent to all WWE performers that names of anyone who is suspended under the Wellness Policy as of November 1 will be made public.

So who are these superstars? The list will make your jaw drop. For dramatic effect, I will start small, and end large.

  • Mike "Simon Dean" Bucci, Currently a WWE office worker.
  • Gregory Helms, Not currently wrestling.
  • Edge, Not currently wrestling.
  • Charlie Haas, here we start to get bigger. Just wait for the next name.
  • Santino Marella, no big deal, but wait for this next one.
  • William Regal, wait for it.
  • King Booker, not that we enjoyed him, it is still a big blow.
  • Chavo Guerrero, this is intersting.
  • John Morrison, crap.
  • Mr. Kennedy, just a week or so after saying the wellness program made him go off steroids. To be fair, I haven't read that they have been suspended for steroid use, just getting internet prescriptions.
  • Randy Orton, are you serious?
Yea, this wasn't any 11 superstars getting suspended. This was any 5 superstars plus 6 top superstars getting suspended.

I don't know how long they are suspended, or if they are all suspended at the same time. But this is 6 RAW Superstars. The ECW Champion. And a top SmackDown star, who was just at SummerSlam.

Who does this leave on RAW? John Cena.. Triple H.. Umaga.. Then who? Jeff Hardy.. Carlito.. I am predicting a lot of Diva action next week on RAW.

***UPDATE***

ADD TO THE LIST FUNKAI, CHRIS MASTERS, AND BATISTA

Short Answer on Fixing WWE's Ratings

OK. So here is the problem. WWE has been having extremely (like ECW original extreme) low ratings. The set a new record for worst ratings Monday.

I think a lot of this problem has to do with Chris Benoit. I don't think many "casual" viewers were impressed with how the WWE handled the Chris Benoit situation. By that I mean they took no responsibility, and paid the price for it.


Now I'm not saying it is their fault, but I'm saying they should act like it is. I think that a different drug testing policy is in order. Along with harsher punishments for violating them. I think if the WWE were to issue a public statement saying they were changing their drug policy, it would go over very well.

Congress wants WWE Drug Testing Reports

Wow... this is big news. According to Wrestling News World here Congress has asked Mr. McMahon for a report on the WWE Drug Testing policy.

Below is a copy of what Wrestling News World Reported

WWE Chairman Vince McMahon has been asked by Congress to provide records detailing World Wrestling Entertainment’s drug testing policies in a three page letter dated today.

According to a published report by ESPN.com, Rep. Henry Waxman, the chairman of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, and Tom Davis, its ranking minority member, asked McMahon in the letter to “provide a series of documents intended to give the committee and its investigation a detailed look at WWE's drug-testing policy, including information about the results of performance-enhancing drug tests on pro wrestlers.”

Below are some excerpts of the letter that was sent to Vince McMahon:

"The tragic deaths of World Wrestling Entertainment star Chris Benoit and his family have raised questions about reports of widespread use of steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs by professional wrestlers,"

"These allegations -- which include first-hand reports of steroid use by prominent former wrestlers -- have swirled around the WWE for over a decade. Investigations by journalists have described a culture of performance-enhancing drug use in professional wrestling, high fatality rates among young professional wrestlers, and an inability or unwillingness of WWE to address these problems."

"WWE has a responsibility to do everything possible to eliminate the use of performance-enhancing drugs -- or the perception of such use -- by its wrestlers."


The requests in the letter are very similar to what Major League Baseball was asked to provide according to ESPN.com. Requests in the letter include:

- A list of drugs covered by WWE polices
- The entity that conducts WWE’s drugs tests and how many tests they conduct annually.
- The protocols followed by WWE following a positive test as well as their procedures on exemptions to a positive test.
- In addition to the number of tests that WWE does annually, the letter requested information on the number of wrestlers that were tested during that time period

According to ESPN.com, WWE has also been asked to provide "the results of any investigations prepared [by the company] regarding the deaths, injuries, or illnesses of current or former professional wrestlers that may have been related to the use of steroids." and "all communications between [the company] and outside entities including communications with health care professionals or law enforcement authorities, regarding allegations of drug use by wrestlers."
