Nickolye's WWE & TNA News


Tonight's guest host for Monday Night Raw will be Wayne Brady. The guest host on May 10 will be Flava Flav, and the host for May 24 will be Jon Lovitz. {WWE} That's right - Jon Lovitz. I have no idea what he'll be promoting or if anybody in the "WWE Universe" will care.

Next Thursday, due to a Chicago Cubs game, WWE Superstars on WGN America will air at 10 PM but still repeat at 12 AM and then 12 PM Sunday. {PWI}

The Hartford Courant has a political cartoon of Linda McMahon HERE.

An interview with CM Punk, who is now being billed as the first straight edge wrestler of all-time, is available HERE.

Ryoto Hama, who was considered an unlikely winner of All Japan's Triple Crown earlier this year, dropped that title to Minoru Suzuki in his first defence earlier today in Nagoya, Japan. {WO}

Wrestlelicious will resume airing new episodes on May 7. The promotion had taken a few weeks off to allow all their syndicated outlets to catch up. Each outlet will now air the same show in the same week. {PWI}

TNAwrestling.com is hinting that Rob Van Dam may be defending his TNA World Heavyweight Championship against the winner of the new ranking system promoted on the site.

Sting vs. Jeff Jarrett has been added to the TNA Sacrifice pay-per-view. {TNA}

On NASCAR Live on SPEED, Hermie Sadler & Steve Byrnes hosted it and interviewed Matt Morgan on the SPEED stage. Morgan said was at his first ever NASCAR race. He said that there is such a great feeling being there. Hermie plugged when TNA airs and told all the NASCAR/Wrestling fans to tune in. Morgan mentioned how Kyle Busch (who guested hosted WWE Raw and won a race in WWE's car) gets the most heat from the fans. He said Busch is the biggest NASCAR heel. Hermie said Matt gets heat like that when he comes out to the ring. Morgan flexed his muscles and plugged when TNA airs again. {PWI}

Last and definitely least, in the NASCAR Nationwide Race from Richmond, the TNA Wrestling Car driven by Hermie Sadler finished 32nd, 6 laps back. Former Raw Guest Hosts Kyle Busch, Carl Edwards and Joey Logano finished fourth, fifth and sixth respectively.
