You mean when Smoking Man said that? Presumably they dont want Mulder going back to investigating the mythology. It will come up again next week.
-
Next week's finale returns to the mythology. Im glad they didnt just do six episodes of mythology. X-Files was really good around the time of it's first movie. It just collapsed under the weight of its own mythology and having to keep changing the "truth" the longer the series got renewed and coming up with reasons why they didnt just kill Mulder off if he was such a threat. There was an episode in the later seasons where they just flat out revealed the "truth" but by then it was a bit late. This new season has been great though.

Nikki is definitely very injured. She wants to come back but it could be career threatening. WWE has a policy about employees and talent dating. Ambrose is lucky Renee is considered talent. Im pretty sure announcers are actually employees (whereas talent are independent contractors). They dont have an issue with talent dating talent though. It happens a lot since you're on the road a lot. However sometimes they try to screw with talent that is dating by either splitting them up on different tours or splitting them up in storyline. They think this is "funny". Sometimes its just flings like with Sunny and Shawn Michaels back in the day (and supposedly Bret Hart too) while she was with Chris Candido. Ofcourse everyone knows about Edge and Lita when he was married and she was with Matt Hardy. Cena had a fling with Mickey James (they did a brief angle of them dating to sort of make fun of the "secret" that everyone knew). Supposedly he ended it and she got obsessive which is why she was shipped off to Smackdown and then eventually released. He was always married at the time. If anyone remembers B.B., the "paramedic" from the attitude era, she dated Bob Holly and apparently it blew up his marriage. She was fired. Ofcourse Hunter and Chyna were living together when he started seeing Stephanie. -
Our friend Eklund seems to think so. And sooner rather than later!

Brianna Danielson, who wrestles as Brie Bella, may be the next WWE performer to retire. The wife of Bryan Danielson, who announced his retirement last week on Raw, expects to retire this summer, confirming a report in last week's issue of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. The couple was on ABC's Good Morning America today to discuss his retirement, when she said that her days were limited in wrestling. The report didn't show a clip of her stating it on camera, but the summer time frame was part of the news story. "It's time for me to hang up the boots," she said. "That day is very close." Bryan said that he wants to spend his time now educating young athletes to the seriousness of concussions. In the report, both Danielsons talked about Bryan's seizures stating that he at first kept them from his wife and when he had one in front of her, implored her not to tell anyone for fear he would not be allowed to wrestle. It should be noted that Bryan Danielson's last seizure was about four years ago and has not been a recent issue. -
But thats classic X-Files. They do funny. They do ridiculous. In a season of 24 episodes, there is enough for everyone. But in a six episode season perhaps its a bit too funny. Although I bet those episodes resonate with viewers easier than the more serious ones. I ad to rewind the mushroom trip scene as I didnt even recognize Skinner dancing or the Lone Gunmen. Hilarious.

Latino Review has some "inside info" on Batman v Superman advanced screenings. Apparently they arent scoring like the studio had hoped. They go on to say Batman is the highlight of the movie and if the film doesnt make a ton of money it might impact Justice League and Zack Snyder. Personally, I HATED Man of Steel. I thought Snyder played it all wrong. And they should have brought Superman into the Batman universe, not the other way around...

I have long thought this was his last WM because he came back for several matches whereas in the past he only returned for WM. I assumed he was pushing himself because he knew it was his final year. But supposedly he feels pretty good. So its certainly possible he will keep going. Although retiring in his home state at Cowboys Stadium would be pretty cool. They really want a Taker vs Cena match though.... On the subject of Mark Henry, WM is supposed to his swan song too. He had previously told WWE he was done and Vince convinced him to stay til WM. If he's hurt, this could be it. Pretty good career for a guy they signed to a crazy deal and then tried to make him quit. -
X-Files was hilarious last night. It was probably a good choice since I assume next week's finale will be pretty heavy. The content of Babylon was interesting and they sort of skirted it to provide comedy. But the comedy was tremendous. If the season was longer, they'd have more opportunity to explore darker issues and more relevant topics. I see the ratings are "so-so". Hopefully good enough to warrant another season and a larger order.

Probably going to be hard to finish below Columbus and Toronto.

Thats what people think. He seemed to be clutching his wrist which Im not sure how he could have hurt it. But throwing a 400lb guy around is probably never a good idea. -

That could be it. I find it sad, embarrassing and pointless. Wasting a good worker. Although since it's such a stupid gimmick that surely kids like at house shows, it probably keeps Cody flying under the radar, which might be good for career longevity. -

Its possible its setting up Undertaker for an 8 man at Wrestlemania or the one on one with Strowman. -

Harrison would be a fine choice. But theyd have to waive him to return him to the AHL I believe. Not that it matters as they are close to the end of the season when Stu is ready anyway. Really, the Jets shouldnt do anything that actually improves the team at this point. Dont screw with Morrissey. Let him keep playing big minutes for the Moose. I'd play Postma. They resigned him for a reason. Either play him or move on from him but he's probably not showing his value in the press box.

There is a new Predator film being worked on though: This new THE PREDATOR film being written by Shane Black is something else. It was in the stage where I couldn't tell if it was going to be absolute garbage, or absolute fun. Then the official Facebook page releases the first image of the film's main focus (the Predator, if you couldn't tell), and I think I may know just what type of ride I'm in for.

Cody is a great worker. Stardust is the most embarrassing gimmick they have. Its the kind of thing that if you were watching a non-fan walked in during his segments, you'd never be able to explain what you were watching. Just horrible. Like you'd be thinking "please, please, please no one walk in during this segment". Its that bad. Horrible. And such a mis-use of Cody. Good news is, Truth and Goldust are doing vignettes which are so bad that they make Stardust seem not as horrible. -

Kane and Show in the main event certainly shows Vince's thought process. His entire career, when the chips are down, he goes right back to the "giants". The business has truly passed him by. And it's a shame because the Wyatt's vs Show and Kane is perfectly fine as a mid card angle. Consider that months ago when Seth got hurt, the problem was a lack of top heels. Here we are nearly March and the same problem exists. They simply havent been able to accomplish anything. And it gets to the point where you have to think its be design. The only real person over is Hunter and Steph. They dont want any other people truly "over". Look at Sasha as an example. When she was called up, she was the most over Diva. They cut her balls off for ages, took her off TV even, to make sure her reaction was less, before bringing her back. You're not allowed to get over unless WWE gets you over. No one will ever be able to say they were over. Only will WWE be able to say we chose that person to be over. RAW was decent though. The 5-way. Imagine if Stardust didnt suck and if Breeze (a good gimmick and a very good worker) hadnt been de-pushed for ages? Roman/Ambrose is good for what it is, the constant tease. I assume one of them will take out the other but eventually they will remain "friends", although turning one heel is the obvious right call. The problem is, they'd prefer to turn Ambrose who is the most over face on the show and will be cheered against Roman. They SHOULD turn Roman. Dudley's doing Heyman's dirty work was a nice twist. Jericho/Styles and even Miz is a great angle to elevate Styles. Jericho is doing really good subtle work that actually makes you want to see whats next without having to hit you over the hear with it. And Miz was great last night. Very underrated worker. Oh and Road Dogg, who is one of the bookers, admitted on twitter than wins and losses dont matter. So there you have it. There's the problem with WWE today in a nutshell. -
I have aboriginal siblings. Believe me, there is racism here. And in fact, its the large population of Aboriginals that leads to racism against whites too. Sometimes in the fight for equality, people pursue better-than. Its understandable, but still... Our very own Eric Robinson was caught referring to "do-good white people" and refusing to apologize for it (sincerely at least) and even claimed he was allowed to be racist because he had been a victim of racism. The fact the remark was originally scrubbed from a Freedom request indicates it was quite clearly a negative remark. Only the incompetence of the person responsible for the redacting led to it being revealed.

Yeah uh huh if you don't know why there is no reason to explain. Sorry it went over your head. The nhl needs to mandate NMC out of contracts in the final year. The argument a player wants to do the best for the team is a lie. And that's what makes him classless. There I explained it.
-
If Stamkos won't waive his NMC and walks away he's a classless piece of garbage.
-
Pardy is a good PK.
-
Yes.
-
Perreault is too versatile to walk away from.

Well that removes him as potential train bait even though it was unlikely. Wonder if the Jets are comfrotable with their D or will try to bring someone in. Really no point to I guess. Hopefully Postma shows well.
