Welcome to Joe's 411: B/R Pro-Wrestling News. Today, there is a lot of big news regarding injuries and returns. And there is still more! This is your 411 B/R!
Evan Bourne Update
Apparently Evan Bourne injured himself, but most people feel he is in trouble with management. He has not been suspended nor has he done anything wrong. Triple H is high on him, so that would keep him in the RAW limelight if he was able to be there.
Bourne was pulled from the six pack US Title match at Night of Champions, and he was still supposed to face the returning Brian Kendrick on RAW (who was suspended). Instead, we saw Jerry Lawler take his spot and beat Kendrick.
Bourne indicated on his WWE Universe blog that he was pulled from the match because he was still nursing his neck that he hurt last week against the Big Show. If you saw the match last week, Bourne landed hard on the back of his neck after receiving a spear by Show.
The WWE felt that they would take him out of the NOC match because they figured his neck would still not be great by Sunday. He may be on RAW next week in a small five or so minute match possibly.
If not, he could be back the following week. The neck is not broken or sprained, just sore. However, this injury for Bourne is significant because of his wrestling style. This is why the neck is such an issue for him.
Jeff Jarrett vs Kurt Angle
As the 411 reported on B/R, a supposed caller into the Bubba the Love Sponge radio show told the listeners that Jeff Jarrett and Kurt Angles's ex-wife Karen are now living with each other.
Now more news has come out about the whole situation. And it is very surprising.
TNA management is playing the radio show's spot with the caller over and over again to try and see if it is possible to recognize the voice of the caller.
However, this is leading to a path to no where as Bubba disguised the voice upon being asked by the caller before he ever spoke on the air. So TNA management can try all they want, but they will get no where.
There is now said to be a pic online of Jarrett and Karen kissing, but I have yet to see the pic myself. I will be tracking it down today, so if it is there, the 411 will have it next time.
Now we to come the part with Kurt Angle.
His contract expires in September, and he is the No. 1 guy in the company right now. Heck, he is TNA World Champion for crying out loud! TNA does not want to lose him, but with this being revealed, Angle could be gone.
As the 411 has reported in the past, Angle has gotten an offer from the WWE which pays just about twice what TNA is paying him. It is a lighter schedule which he wanted from them while with the company, and he is guaranteed to main event.
On top of that, because he wants to act, the WWE has offered him a few WWE film roles if he signed. So, Angle could easily be gone.
TNA has now somewhat answered the WWE's offer, as rumor has it, TNA may offer him a huge part of the company, bookings.
At Saturday night's TNA house show in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, Kurt Angle was telling people that he is going to end up with the booking control of the company that Jarrett had.
He went on to further say that he won't sign a new contract with TNA if Jarrett remains in power.
