Batista in "The Man With the Iron Fists" Movie by Quentin Tarantino

The 1st Official Trailer of "The Man With the Iron Fists" starring Russell Crowe, Lucy Liu,  Cung Le, and former WWE superstar Dave Batista has finally been released. 

The film was produced by the famous Quentin Tarantino and directed by rapper RZA (making his directorial debut).
Check out the trailer below:




John Cena Accused of Cheating on His Wife During Marriage?

After it was recently reported in May that WWE superstar John Cena was in the process of divorcing his wife, it seems like things are only going to get worse.

On June 20, TMZ received news from  Elizabeth  "Liz" Cena's attorney Raymond Rafool that John Cena was cheating on her with other women during their marriage. Liz is now determined to prove it in court because that could potentially affect the prenuptial agreement.




According to Wrestling Inc., a former WWE wrestler Kenn Doane, also known as Kenny Dykstra of the Spirit Squad (2006-2008), claimed on Twitter (June 16th) that Cena had an affair with Mickie James in 2008 while she was engaged to marry Doane. Eventually, Cena broke up with Mickie which caused her to go crazy (she was unable to cope with the break-up) since she wanted to be with him. WWE then separated the two by sending Mickie to SmackDown and kept Cena on RAW.

Because of this, it shouldn't be a surprise that Cena's wife would use the information against her husband. Then again, it shouldn't be surprising if it turns out that Liz is making false accusations to cash in on WWE's number one man. The situation with Mickie James was 4 years ago! And it could be argued that Cena didn't know that Mickie was engaged at the time. Thus, when he found out, he broke up with her because he knew it was wrong to continue dating her.

WWE RAW 6/4/12 - John Cena vs Michael Cole (No DQ Match) Review

http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m54oi3072A1qgko6zo3_1280.jpg
STIPULATION
Before John Cena could have a match with Michael Cole, Mr. Laurinaitis said Cena has to win a match against Lord Tensai first.





JOHN CENA vs. LORD TENSAI
The Cena vs. Tensai match was disappointing. Tensai dominated Cena the entire time with Cena countering a few times only to be dominated again. Towards the end, Cena suddenly unleashed his Super Powers when Tensai tried to jump on him but missed as Cena rolled out of the way. Queue Cena's usual finishing moves, 5 knuckle shuffle, Attitude Adjustment, and Cena wins.

CENA SHOULD IMPROVE IN-RING 
This happens in many, many of Cena's matches. To make Cena's matches better, WWE should have him and his opponent going at each other back and forth equally 50/50. Instead, we usually get Cena being dominated by his opponent 90% of the time and all the sudden Cena wins at the end. In order for Cena's wrestling performance to improve, he needs to do more during the match than just wait until the end to unleash his usual moves to win the match. 

Now, moving on to the Cena vs. Michael Cole match...

JOHN CENA vs. MICHAEL COLE
It was pretty funny seeing Cena humuliate Cole: making him apologize to King and J.R., pouring J.R.'s bbq sauce on him, and spraying him with a fire extinguisher. Then, Tensai interferred. But Cena quickly countered Cole and won the match.

NO CENA vs. BIG SHOW SEGMENT?
I think this match (John Cena vs. Michael Cole) should have taken place another time, a few weeks or months later. What should have happened on tonight's RAW is something to help build up the Cena vs. Big Show match at No Way Out. If Big Show really wasn't on RAW, then the least WWE could do was show footage of Big Show brutally assaulting wrestlers backstage or outside the building. Cena would not be able to run to the area and save them in time because Big Show gets away.

NEXT WEEK'S EXPECTATION
I was really hoping for something interesting to add more heat to the feud. The PG era has much more potential. Last year, we saw Kevin Nash beating up Triple H with a sledgehammer! Just do something similar with Big Show and Cena! We still have one week left before No Way Out 2012. Hopefully next Monday Night RAW, we will get to see a nice brawl between Cena and Big Show that will close the show on a high note.

WWE - Alex Riley Should Get Revenge on Big Show

On the May 28th episode of Monday Night RAW,  Alex Riley was seen backstage smooth-talking Eve... that is, until the Big Show slammed him into a nearby wall.

Many fans were excited to have him back on TV after not seeing him for quite some time.

However, it looks like the WWE is only using Riley as a human punching bag nowadays and this segment certainly shows it.

Surprisingly, this actually got Alex Riley trending worldwide on Twitter as lots of fans tweeted about him.
Go #AlexRiley!

Ever since he attacked his heel mentor, the Miz, and became face, he has become a fan-favorite. The feud has given him tons of positive reaction and should have catapulted him to the top of the company, but WWE quickly pulled the plug on him. Why?

I mean, this guy has the strength, charisma, mic skills, and persona to be one of the top faces in the company alongside the likes of John Cena. The problem could be his decent but sometimes sloppy in-ring performance... which is why many fans assumed that Riley was relegated to jobber status in order for him to improve his wrestling skills.

It is rumored that WWE was worried that the Miz could have gotten injured by Riley's sloppy performance, so they decided not to risk any future injuries and aborted Riley's big push.

However, it's been over one year now and after a losing streak of 14 matches, I think it's time for Alex Riley to rise to the top once again. After being attacked by the Big Show, the guy should seek revenge. The next time Big Show goes after John Cena and has the upper hand, Riley should attack Big Show to get some payback.

WWE's habit of inserting Cena into the main event almost every week and every Pay Per View is very stale. Why not mix it up and add Riley to the storyline?

After No Way Out 2012, he could feud with the Big Show on his own without Cena in the picture, thus giving Riley a chance to shine once again like he did against the Miz. To make this worthwhile, there should be one of those long brawls between the two that starts in the ring, outside the ring, into the crowd, backstage, and outside the building. If done correctly, this feud could definitely get Riley over and one step further in his long journey to hopefully become a United States champion and then WWE or World Heavyweight champion.

WWE - Big Show's Heel Turn Explanation Needs Some Work


After the Over the Limit 2012 pay per view, the Big Show explained his actions for attacking John Cena and helping Mr. Laurinaitis win the match.

He told everyone that he loves his job in the WWE and he had to whatever it took in order to get re-hired. He also said that if anyone was in his shoes they would do the same thing.

I agree with this, but Big Show would eventually get his job back if John Cena defeated Laurinaitis and the WWE could put a better General Manager in charge. Maybe Teddy Long...or even Edge! Anyone nicer than Laurinaitis would most likely hire back the Big Show.

Instead, we have John Cena losing at Over the Limit and People Power still in place. Sure, Big Show got his job back (plus a huge bonus), but he aligned himself with Mr. Laurinaitis against the entire WWE universe. Why?


He claimed that everyone in the WWE and all the fans didn't care about him when he was fired. He showed footage of Brodus Clay dancing with kids in the ring, the segment that happened right after the job firing. Everyone was having fun without Big Show. This was enough for him to believe that his fans just moved on so easily like nothing happened.

As for the locker room, no one tried to confront Laurinaitis and demand that Big Show be re-hired. Especially not even John Cena, the top face of the company. He was one of Big Show's best friends and he let him down. To support this, Big Show then showed the footage of Cena acting like Jim Carrey and calling Mr. Laurinaitis a loser, or should I say, "LOOOOSEEERRR." The crowd was certainly enjoying it and laughed like crazy. But not Big Show. This just made him more upset.

I can see how these pieces of evidence explains why Big Show turned heel. However, they are not sufficient. He has not told us why he continues to side with Mr. People Power Laurinaitis... the man who put Big Show through so much pain and suffering... the man who FIRED Big Show in the first place. 

There is no need to help Laurinaitis anymore. Big Show already got his job back. He is done with him. Why continue hanging out with a man that humuliated you? Just remember not to mess with Mr. Laurinaitis ever again. As for the heel turn, he can be a heel and hate the WWE universe on his own. Big Show doesn't need to be seen helping or being helped by ANYONE, but HIMSELF and him alone... because he is, after all, the BIG SHOW.
