    That's easy...he takes over RAW as GM, then goes to the booth and says, "I'm running this show..."

    I didn't necessarily mean Booker T. specifically, but someone like him. I like the Road Dogg idea. He had some of the best mic skills in wrestling. In fact, he got his daddy's skills x2, and that's saying something.

    The NoC card is really appealing to me. I'm assuming they will set up some combination of Miz/Cody/Rey on Smackdown. The show has pretty solid potential considering it is in Boston.

    Two words for the color spot: Paul Heyman.

    Why not? Especially with everything that's been going on.

    Doubt they'll take him out of the Punk angle just to do that.

    He wouldn't have to be taken out of it.

    Like Tommy said, Heyman wouldn't have to be taken out of the Punk angle. And, at least from view, it would further that storyline having him be the heel announcer or some shit like that.

    This from Figure 4 Weekly/Wrestling Observer last night....

    Lawler evening update

    Jerry Lawler's condition remains stable after today's surgery in an unnamed Montreal hospital. He is responsive to the point he can blink his eyes, nod and grip and squeeze with his hands.

    His girlfriend, Lauryn Laine McBride, who is in the hospital with him, said in a message just posted that in surgery, Lawler had one stent put in, not three.
     
  9. This is just crazy. Prayers go out to the King and his family. The "took a while to revive him" worries me a bit as to his ability to fully recover from this. And I have to believe, although this is such an isolated incident, that they ware going to avoid having some of these hall-of-famers getting back into the ring. Considering how bad Brett looked, and he is one of the younger ones, it's just not worth it. They get the same pop from just getting in the ring and having Cena protect them.

    What happens when a US citizen gets emergency medical care in Canada? Who picks up the tab?

    And in general, it's up to your insurance company:

    I can agree, but remember Bret did suffer a stroke (or was it more than one?), so that probably contributed to his appearance. That being said, I doubt any legends will be wrestling anytime soon.
