Today there was an article on this very website that recapped an interview with former WWE Tough Enough winner, Daniel Puder. One of the topics Puder discussed during the course of this interview was the incident between himself and Kurt Angle during a Tough Enough segment on an episode of Smackdown back in 2004. Now Puder seems to be getting a lot a flack for what is said, which includes calling Angle a "wimp" and a lot of that criticism is that he took advantage of the situation by shooting on Kurt when he wasn't expecting it, but the problem with that criticism is it just isn't true because it was an unscripted environment and Kurt Angle knew exactly what he was doing; what he was doing was trying to be a big shot because he was a master Olympic wrestler and knew he could embarrass these guys while looking tough at the same time. I don't necessarily agree with Kurt Angle being a "wimp", but there is no question he was being a bully in that situation by legitimately beating the crap out of Chris Nawrocki, the first contestant that got to face Angle, and in fact he broke some of the poor guy's ribs before making him tap out to a "neck crank". I understand that in the wrestling business all guys who are just starting almost always go through something like that so they can make sure you're tough enough (clever of me eh?) but in front of thousands of people and on national television was neither the time nor the place. Angle even had the audacity to laugh about it while acting like some sort of tough guy for beating up a man with virtually no fighting experience before asking all the other contestants if they wanted to step in the ring with him, which is when Daniel Puder accepted. Puder ended up getting Angle in a Kimura Lock and he couldn't tap for obvious reasons, so the referees counted Puder's shoulders down even though they weren't. The simple fact is that Kurt Angle was seconds away from suffering a broken arm and was a victim of that old saying, "What goes around come around." In conclusion I would like to say that I am not giving Daniel Puder a free pass on his involvement because he wasn't squeaky clean either as this wasn't an MMA fight and he should have known better than to try and brake the arm of one of the biggest stars in the company no matter how much of a bully he was being or even though he might have deserved, though he did technically follow the rules as the only thing banned were strikes. The bottom line is Kurt Angle should have acted more professionally and Daniel Puder should have just been the bigger man. ]]> Brendan http://forum.ewrestlingnews.com/entry.php?43144-Kurt-Angle-and-Daniel-Puder People Who Belong In The WWE Hall Of Fame http://forum.ewrestlingnews.com/entry.php?43103-People-Who-Belong-In-The-WWE-Hall-Of-Fame Tue, 03 Jul 2012 22:55:35 GMT Attachment 2694 (http://forum.ewrestlingnews.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2694) I have probably left a few names off, but I think I did a pretty... I have probably left a few names off, but I think I did a pretty good job and I hope you can appreciate me choosing a lot of older wrestlers who would help legitimize the WWE Hall Of Fame. Lou Thesz When all was said and done, Lou Thesz had six NWA World Title runs during a time when the belt wasn't passed around like a hot potato, in fact he held the Championship a combined ten years, three months, and nine days. Thesz was the glue that held the NWA together and was the original reason it was as successful as it was. He is also credited with being the innovator of a number of wrestling maneuvers such as the original powerbomb, STF, belly to back waistlock suplex (known today as the German suplex due to its association with Karl Gotch), and the Lou Thesz press all of which are still used today. Pat O'Connor He is regarded as one of the premier workers of his era. He also held the AWA World Heavyweight Championship and NWA World Heavyweight Championship simultaneously, the latter of which he held for two years. Edouard Carpentier Carpentier was one of the first wrestlers to regularly use acrobatic maneuvers such as the Rope-aided twisting hurricanrana and because of this was always a fan favorite. He also headlined Madison Square Garden three during his career and was matched against numerous heels, the most well known of whom was the legendary Killer Kowalski "Macho Man" Randy Savage Savage was arguably as big of a star as Hulk Hogan during the "Rock N' Wrestling" era of the eighties in the WWE. He was one of the most charismatic wrestlers in the history of the business and easily stood out from the rest of the pack. Savage was also one of the best inside the ring and had one of the greatest matches of all time against Ricky Steamboat at Wrestlemania III. Ed "Strangler" Lewis Lewis led a wrestling renaissance after the attendance doldrums of World War 1. Along with Billy Sandow and Toots Mondt, Lewis held a virtual hammerlock on wrestling during the decade, with practically every name wrestler under contract. After retirement, he worked with Leroy McGuirk and trained Danny Hodge and Dick Hutton for the ring. Lou Thesz credits Lewis with polishing his style in the ring. Bruno Sammartino The first big star of what today is known as the WWE and without him there wouldn't have been a WWWF, WWF, WWE, or Vince McMahon, Jr. He had great in-ring psychology and could make even the most callous fans feel for him. Bob Backlund The man practically held the the WWE championship for six years straight and even though he had some problems giving it up when the time came, he was still one of the all time great in the the ring and deserves a HOF induction. Davey Boy Smith (British Bulldog) He is one of the most physically impressive wrestlers in history and held every major title in the WWE except the WWE Championship, while also main eventing many PPV events in both WCW and WWE. Smith also possessed uncanny athleticism for a man as muscular as he was. Karl Gotch In Japan, Gotch was known as the "God of Pro Wrestling" due to his influence in Japanese wrestling. He also invented the Cradle Piledriver. Jim Londos He was the premier wrestling attraction of the dirty thirties and the first wrestler to attract large numbers of women to the arenas. He was a credible worker, but his best attributes were his good looks and amazing physique. Toots Mondt He revolutionized wrestling in the 1920s by moving away from the slow-moving mat wrestling that was losing the interest of fans and instead combined features of a boxing ring, Greco-Roman, freestyle wrestling, and the old-time lumber-camp style of fighting. He is one of the founders of the WWWF and was the one who wanted to build the company around Bruno Sammartino, while Vince McMahon Sr on the other hand thought Sammartino would be a mid-carder at best. Some of the stars Mondt helped create from the 1920s through the 1960s include Jim Londos, Antonio Rocca, and the aforementioned Bruno Sammartino. ]]> Brendan http://forum.ewrestlingnews.com/entry.php?43103-People-Who-Belong-In-The-WWE-Hall-Of-Fame WWE Monday Night Raw 6/25/12 Review http://forum.ewrestlingnews.com/entry.php?43023-WWE-Monday-Night-Raw-6-25-12-Review Tue, 26 Jun 2012 05:06:37 GMT Attachment 2672 (http://forum.ewrestlingnews.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2672) *_ AJ Backstage Segment_ *I thought that this little segment... AJ Backstage Segment I thought that this little segment helped put over that AJ really is a "crazy chick." I'm also loving the fact that a Diva is part of one of the top storylines in WWE, in fact she might even be the best part. Triple-Threat Elimination Match Interesting match to start Raw and I'm most certainly not going to complain about it because watching Daniel Bryan, Kane, and CM Punk in the ring is always a treat and this time was no different as they had a phenomenal match. The elimination concept worked really well here because CM Punk looked strong since he pinned Kane, and also set up another WWE Championship Match between Bryan and Punk. It looks like Kane's time in this feud is over since he is now in the WWE Title Money In Bank Match and I for one thoroughly enjoyed his involvement. Backstage Segment Both Alberto Del Rio and Dolph Ziggler wanted to face Sheamus for the World Heavyweight Championship, so Vickie Guerrero booked them in a... Wait for it... Contract on a pole match in which the said contract gives them a title shot. My god, is Vince Russo back? Brodus Clay vs. Big Show This match was very short and in the end Big Show was left standing tall as he exploited Brodus Clay's already injured knee. I'm liking how things are going with Brodus right now because his feud with Big Show is getting a slow build to it and to me that is a good thing as you don't get that much in WWE anymore. My guess is that Clay is going to finally take care of Daivid Otunga in the coming weeks and than cost Big Show the Money In the Bank Match next month eventually leading to a match between the two at Summerslam where Big Show puts him over clean. United Championship Match Extremely random match for the US Title between Santino and Jack Swagger that didn't accomplish anything other than use up some air time. It also looks like Swagger is going to be embarking on a losing streak storyline that guys like MVP have previously enjoyed because the announcers were really pushing that he hasn't won a lot lately. John Cena's Historic Announcement Well its officially folks, John Cena's next straight to DVD movie is going to be a remake of the Teletubbies! All joking aside, I think its pretty cool that hes going to be in the Money In The Bank Match this year and I also loved the interaction between him and a returning Chris Jericho, who will also be the match. I just hope that more people are added to the match because I think the MITB match works better with at least 6 participents. Heath Slater vs. Phyco Sid Nice nostalgic moment here. Not really much else to say here. Contract On A Pole Match This was actually a pretty good match here that really showed off Dolph Ziggler's athleticism. I also felt that this is what it would be like if Ziggler were a Babyface and I liked, in fact I've decided to write a blog about it. The way it was announced that Ziggler and Alberto Del Rio are both going to face Sheamus for the World Title on Smackdown was a little awkward for me, but either way I'm looking forward to it because I think the match is going to be stupendous. Chris Jericho vs. John Cena Jericho and Cena have always had chemistry together, and this match exemplified it as they had a nice little match here. I didn't mind Big Show coming out and decimating Cena, though I also wouldn't have minded an appearance by Kane, but that can happen next week. Closing Thoughts Overall, I thought Raw was just okay tonight because I feel that some of the matches should have gotten more time. Raw Rating: 3.5/5 ]]> Brendan http://forum.ewrestlingnews.com/entry.php?43023-WWE-Monday-Night-Raw-6-25-12-Review WWE Smackdown 6/22/2012 Review http://forum.ewrestlingnews.com/entry.php?43005-WWE-Smackdown-6-22-2012-Review Sat, 23 Jun 2012 02:38:14 GMT Attachment 2659 (http://forum.ewrestlingnews.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2659) _* Opening Segment*_ I thought that this was a good start to... Opening Segment I thought that this was a good start to Smackdown. I'm actually starting to like the Big Show as Heel because he seems to finally be showing some passion for what he does and his Promos have been fairly solid. Show just needs to start cendencing his Promos because he takes too much time to get his point across. Brodus Clay is also finally gaining my interest because hes finally showed some fire over the last few weeks and I'm loving that he finally has an actual feud; in fact hes basically feuding with two people in Big Show and David Otunga. Speaking of Otunga, its great that he also has a legitimate feud now and tonight he was great, especially when he mocked Clay's dance. On a side note, I really hope WWE isn't setting up Big Show to win a Money In The Bank Briefcase because he doesn't need it. Ryback vs. Jared Walker and Frank Valencia I am probably one of the few who have enjoyed watching Ryback annihilate jobber after jobber, but even I'm starting to get sick of it and am ready to see how he would do in a 10-15 minute match against some that is actually a member of the WWE roster. Personally, I would like to see Ryback feud with Tensai seeing as neither have nothing going on right now. It would also be an amazing feat to see if Ryback could get Tensai up on his shoulders for the Suplex type maneuver he does, which would also help get him more over with the audience. Christian vs. Alberto Del Rio These two most certainly have some chemistry together because they had a Pay-Per-View quality match on Smackdown. I liked Alberto Del Rio getting the fairly clean victory here over someone who actually means something, but I was still perturbed as to why WWE would job out their Intercontinental Champion, though Christian did look strong in defeat as the match was back and forth with many near-falls for both men and he was distracted a little by Ricardo Rodriguez at the end. I'm happy that Cody Rhodes and Christian are going to continue feuding over the IC Title as Rhodes viciously attacked Christian's already injured arm after the match and screamed at him "You're stealing my time, I am Smackdown." I also have my figures cross that Rhodes and Christian's next match is a Ladder Match at Money In The Bank. Kane vs. Daniel Bryan A really good video package documenting the whole AJ, Kane, CM Punk, and Daniel Bryan saga was shown before the match. AJ also made her way out as the "Special Guest" Time Keeper for the match. Daniel Bryan and Kane worked very well together tonight and were allotted enough time to pace the match nicely. AJ continued to tease where her allegiance is as she rang the ring bell while Kane was in the Crossface even though he had not tapped out. AJ feigning innocence acted as though it was just a mistake and the match continued much to the dismay of Daniel Bryan who thought he had won. Bryan eventually lost due to a chokeslam and AJ just nonchalantly skipped away as if nothing had happened leaving Kane looking confused. I hope that I'm not the only one still enjoying this story after all these weeks because it keeps me looking forward to what happens next. Heath Slater vs. Zack Ryder I'm finding Heath Slater hilarious on the mic over the past few weeks, but this match got super short and was a waste of time. The only reason this happened was so Mick Foley could appear in front of the live crowd. Prime Time Players vs. The Usos Pretty good match between two Tag-Teams that actually look and act like one. The only problem I had was that the match didn't get enough time, though I loved the brawl between Primo & Epic and the Prime Time Players/AW backstage after the match. I'm still hoping that those two teams have a match at Money In The Bank where there is a clear winner and that it isn't just wasted on a Raw or Smackdown. Santino Marella Segment HUMONGOUS waste of time. This never should have happened and the time that was wasted here could have been added to the Tag-Team match. Sheamus vs. Dolph Ziggler Dolph Ziggler and Sheamus had a match that was totally different than their previous ones and in my opinion, this match was better than the one they had at No Way Out. I also loved the finish because it would have come out of nowhere if it weren't for the fact that this was a TV match. I'm assuming that next week, WWE will start setting up for Sheamus and Alberto Del Rio to finally have their one on one World Heavyweight Championship match at Money In The Bank, which is something I'm going to try and stay positive about. Closing Thoughts I found Smackdown really enjoyable tonight because of three awesome matches that actually got a solid amount of time and a strong opening segment. Smackdown Rating: 4/5 ]]> Brendan http://forum.ewrestlingnews.com/entry.php?43005-WWE-Smackdown-6-22-2012-Review There Should Be No Rush With Cody Rhodes Career http://forum.ewrestlingnews.com/entry.php?42994-There-Should-Be-No-Rush-With-Cody-Rhodes-Career Fri, 22 Jun 2012 00:03:48 GMT Attachment 2636 (http://forum.ewrestlingnews.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2636) A lot of wrestling fans have been clamoring for Cody Rhodes... A lot of wrestling fans have been clamoring for Cody Rhodes to win one of the Money In The Bank Briefcases next month when a Pay-Per-View of the same name takes place. They want this because being the owner of said Briefcase all but guarantees you are going to win a World Championship very soon, but my reply would be, whats the rush? Cody Rhodes is going to turn twenty-seven on June Thirtieth and still has a ton of time to continue to mature both in the in the ring and on the microphone. I'm not saying Rhodes isn't good in the ring or on the mic, I am saying that he still has room to improve, which is insane because he is already extremely good and I can't wait to see how good hes going to be. Lets not forget that over the past number of years WWE has had trouble with their patience as they have pushed numerous wrestlers to the top too fast, with Allberto Del Rio being a recent example. Del Rio is a guy that in his first year and a half on the main roster of the WWE won the 2011 Royal Rumble, 2011 Raw MITB, and WWE Championship twice. That is a very impressive resume and yet Del Rio was and still isn't over with the majority of the fans because he was shoved down their throats repeatedly. Cody Rhodes is definitely not the same as Alberto Del Rio, but he has only found his niche in the WWE over the past year and I don't want to see the same thing that happened to Del Rio happen to him. WWE and the fans in this case just need to show a little patience. Lastly, the Mid-Card needs Cody Rhodes to be its face. It needs him to be there over the next few years to win and lose Intercontinental Championships and bring the best out of guys like Seth Rollins, Richy Steamboat, and Mike Dalton who are just making their way up to main roster, so that they can become the faces of the division and Rhodes can eventually ascend to the Main-Event. Patience is an art WWE has lost and is something that needs to be found and used in the case of Cody Rhodes. It is also something fans need to find as well because its better in the long run. So I will ask again, whats the rush? ]]> Brendan http://forum.ewrestlingnews.com/entry.php?42994-There-Should-Be-No-Rush-With-Cody-Rhodes-Career WWE Monday Night Raw 6/18/12 Review http://forum.ewrestlingnews.com/entry.php?42974-WWE-Monday-Night-Raw-6-18-12-Review Tue, 19 Jun 2012 05:38:51 GMT Attachment 2629 (http://forum.ewrestlingnews.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2629) *_ Mick Foley Segment_* I was legitimately surprised to... Mick Foley Segment I was legitimately surprised to see Mick Foley come out to start Raw as I didn't know Raw was in Mick's hometown of Long Island. For me its always nice to see Mrs. Foley's baby boy and it was interesting to find out from him that former General Managers will be hosting Raw and Smackdown each week over the next little while, with Foley himself doing so this week. As for the stuff with John Laurinaitis; I am so past him and am extremly disapointed that he mainevented Raw along with John Cena, Big Show, and David Otunga once again. Sheamus & CM Punk vs. Daniel Bryan & Kane I thought Sheamus was a really random partner for CM Punk, but moving past that this was actually a very good Tag-Team match. AJ coming out in the middle of the match dressed as Kane was pure gold and kept Daniel Bryan along with Kane looking strong because CM Punk and Sheamus used the distraction to win. Other then that, no storylines were advanced or started here, but WWE can begin to on Smackdown and besides I enjoyed this. Dolph Ziggler vs. Jack Swagger I feel like we are back to square one with Dolph Ziggler because hes already done the "lover" angle with Vickie Guerrero and he doesn't need ANYONE as his manger. Ziggler is just simply ready to be on his own, while Jack Swagger actually needs Vickie. As for the match itself, it was way too short and to be honest I am incredibly sick of short TV matches like this. I did like that Ziggler was put over by being able to survive the ankle lock for an extended amount of time and than win. Paul Heyman & Triple H Segment I didn't like the shot Triple H took at Paul Heyman about Raw not being in a Bingo Hall and I was surprised Heyman didn't have most of the New York crowd on his side, but other than that I love how this feud is progressing. And by the way, Paul Heyman has most certainly not lost a step as he can still talk circles around the entire WWE roster and is really adding a lot of good to the Brock Lesnar/HHH rivalry. Santino Marella vs. Alberto Del Rio I've seen so many Alberto Del Rio squash matches exactly like this and in fact many of them have been with Santino Marella, so I was totally uninterested and not entertained by this. Cyndi Lauper Segment No matter how much Micheal Cole apologizes for how terrible this segment was, it will never be enough. Never... Prime Time Players vs. Primo & Epico I am thoroughly enjoying the fact that the Tag-Team Division finally has an actually storyline and not just two teams randomly going at it for the Titles. I think AW is a perfect fit for Darren Young and Titus O'Neil. I can only hope that this leads to a match at Money In The Bank between these two teams and from there hopefully R-Truth will be all healed up from his broken foot so he and Kofi Kingston can start building for a Tag-Team Championship match against the Prime Time Players at Summerslam. The only problem is that once again, a TV match was just too short. John Cena vs. Big Show, David Otunga, & John Laurinaitis Storyline wise this match doesn't make any sense because now that John Laurinaitis is fired, any decisions he made before that should be null and void. Even if I get past that, this was still horrible because watching John Cena beat up out of shape non-wrestlers just isn't very entertaining to me especially for the third time in the past month and a half. I did find it hilarious when the crowd was chanting "You can't wrestle" while David Otunga and Cena were wrestling each other because I found it to be an apt description of the two. I'm also assuming that unfortunately Big Show will continue feuding with with Cena next week. Closing Thoughts Raw started off hot tonight but quickly fizzled out because of a couple of bad storylines and short matches that weren't given enough time.

World Heavyweight Championship Match Dolph Ziggler proved in this match that he has the ability to be in a World Title match where he and the champion are the focus. This match had a big time feel to it and rightfully so because it was great. Sheamus and Ziggler were both on top of their game and have actually developed some solid chemistry together. I also liked that Dolph Ziggler had the majority of the crowd on his side, though it was funny when they were chanting "lets going Ziggler!" and Jerry Lawler said something along the lines of "listen to this crowd, chanting 'lets go Sheamus'. Intercontinental Championship Match This was an absolutely phenomenal match! Cody Rhodes and Christian had a very fast paced wrestling clinic that had counter after counter and multiple false-finishes. That DDT Christan hit on Rhodes on the floor was also beautifully done. Best of all for the first time in a long time, it felt like the IC Title actually meant something. Hopefully WWE keeps this up and also continues this Rhodes and Christian feud because my mouth waters at the idea of these two going at it in a Ladder Match for the IC Title. Fatal Four-Way Tag Team Match This was an impromptu Fatal Four-Way Tag Team Match where the winners would become the Number One Contenders for the Tag Team Championships. The teams involved were The Usos, Prime Time Players, Epico & Primo, and Justin Gabriel & Tyson Kidd. All I can say is that I am extremely glad this match happened because it featured some awesome in-ring action and showed what WWE has been missing the past number of years as far as Tag Team Wrestling goes. I also loved the added wrinkle of AW turning Epico & Primo and siding with the Prime Time Players. Divas Championship Match The only thing I have to say about this is why in the heck is WWE not using Kharma when the people obviously want her as evidenced by a WWE crowd once again chanting "we want Kharma!". Sin Cara vs. Hunico I thought this was a pretty good match. I liked that it felt like an actual match and not just a showcase of Sin Cara's moves. The lights during Sin Cara's matches do seriously have to go in my opinion, but other than that I think Cara has finally adjusted to the WWE. Triple-Threat WWE Championship Match I thought that the IC title match was going to be the best bout of the night until this match. CM Punk, Kane, and Daniel Bryan all clicked in this Triple-Threat match and the added intrigue of AJ and her actions earlier in the night and in the weeks prior added some much needed suspense and unpredictability. Obviously this whole thing isn't over given how CM Punk retained his Title and I for one am looking forward to what happens next. Steel Cage Match I will admit that John Cena and The Big Show had a better match than I expected them to have, but this still should not have been the Main Event without the WWE Championship. I will say that I hope this at least means that John Laurinaitis will be off my television screen contrary to what WWE advertisements might say and that we will finally have a General Manager that can actually put a sentence together without tripping over their words and doesn't take up an hour of TV time each week. Closing Thoughts I thought that No Way Out was surprisingly good because of some solid wrestling matches.

X Division Title Match This was a three way Ultimate X Match that saw Austin Aries defending his title against Zema Ion and Chris Sabin. Sounds good on paper right? Well surprisingly and unfortunately that didn't translate into real life success because this match was an absolute mess. Some of that COULD be attributed to an apparent injury suffered by Sabin, but even before and after that the match was sloppy, the timing was off, and at times it looked like all three men had no idea what they were going to do next. Zema Ion especially looked lost throughout the match and at one point was on the top rope for a considerable amount of time doing absolutely nothing, but again Sabin's injury probably had a lot to do with that. Austin Aries & Hulk Hogan Segment I liked this segment because Hogan really put Austin Aries over and also because it looks like Aries is getting the next World Title shot at Destination X as long as he relinquishes the X Division title by next weeks Impact. The only thing I'm unhappy about is the state of the X Division because its in shambles right now and is going to be pretty much dead once Austin Aries is gone. TV Championship Match Seeing Hernandez dive over the top rope is always awesome and this time he did it while Devon was still making his entrance. Unfortunately that was the only thing I liked about this match. I find Devon extremely boring in the ring as a singles wrestler and this time was no different as he and Hernandez just didn't click. I'm also confused as to what is going on with Hernandez because at Slammiversary he worked as a Babyface, but tonight on Impact he worked as a Heel. 12-Man Gauntlet Battle Royal The opening match in this years Bound For Glory Series is a Gauntlet Battle Royal featuring Eleven out of the Twelve participants, which Includes AJ Styles, Jeff Hardy, RVD, Magnus, Bully Ray, Kurt Angle, unfortunately Robbie E, Christopher Daniels, Samoa Joe, a returning D'Angelo Dinero, and of course the eventual winner of the the Battle Royal James Storm. All in all this was a great match and an awesome way to start the BFGS. I just hope everyone is ready for a predictable next couple months of TNA because its obvious that they're setting up James Storm to win the tournament and for Bobby Roode to keep the World Title all the way to BFG so he and Storm can have their rematch. I'm not complaining about that though because that is what I want to happen and to me I don't think there is any other way to go. World Heavyweight Championship Match I don't think anyone was expecting anything else other than Bobby Roode retaining his Championship against Mr. Anderson, but the two wrestlers still had a good World Title match. I really liked that Bobby Roode won the match cleanly and by submission none the less. It makes Roode look like a legitimate champion and also draws some heat in a different way because most people hate someone who is arrogant and a jerk, but can back it up. Sting Segment I'm not going to lie, I want to complain about this going on last, but alas I won't. This was short and I need to see where this is going before I decide if it was also sweet. I'm not sure what to make of the masked men, but two out of the three looked to not be in very good shape and the third didn't look very good ether. There are reports that TNA may be starting an invasion storyline with the Mexican Wrestling Promotion Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA) but it remains to be seen if this was the start of it. Its worth noting for those of you who don't know that AAA and TNA have had a working relationship for years. Jeff Jarret is also currently working there. Closing Thoughts To be honest, I don't think Impact was very good tonight other than the Battle Royal, World Title Match, and tentatively the masked men attacking Sting.

Seoul Garden: Korean restaurant in Parma
I normally don't write tips about restaurants but this time I can't refrain.
This venue is certainly not the fanciest I've seen. I must say it's not much inspiring as seen from the outside, and the perception doesn't change once having stepped-in. The tables and the interiors have seen better days, but the personnel (a Korean guy and a half-Korean lady) is very courteous and amiable.
What really left an impression on me was the quality of food. A surprisingly real Korean experience, I was actually not prepared to find to find such excellence outside Korea.
The menu is well varied and includes most of the typical dishes. I couldn't try everything but sharing with others in my party was sufficient to give a double thumbs up to a number of delicacies. Of course it all comes with the traditional countless side dishes including the ubiquitous cabbage Kimchi.
Beware of portions as they can feed two or three persons! This restaurant should be in a better location and have bells and whistles. These guys deserve to move on and hope they will. Kudos!
Favorite Dish: Mandu (Braised dumplings)
Nakji Bokkum (Grilled Octopus)
Dwenchang Chigae (Fermented soybean hot pot)
Dubu (Tofu)
Kimchi (Fermented cabbage)Related to:

Kennedy's Bakery: Get the Sticky Buns!
One thing I love about road trips is that when hunger strikes you can end up eating in some interesting places. Interesting can sometimes mean wonderful and sometimes mean downright scary. I've eaten in a lot of little towns where the only reason I stopped was because I was starving and they were on the highway and all they have to offer is a Quick-E-Mart or some such place so I settle for chips and soda or a sub sandwich wrapped in saran wrap.
Every once in a while, though, I discover a gem. When hunger struck one morning in eastern Ohio, I was approaching Cambridge, a cute town that I had never heard of before. The highway ran right through the town and connected me to another highway I needed and while I was going from one highway to the other, I passed down main street, which in Cambridge is named Wheeling Avenue, and I spotted a sign that said bakery. There was a parking spot in front of the place so I parked and went in.
Some places just hit you the moment you step inside. They hit you with that feeling, "Oh, yes. This is going to be good." That's what you feel when you step inside Kennedy's and let me tell you, it is definitely good.
Cakes, cookies, doughnuts, rolls, pastries...need I go on? It looks fantastic, smells better, and tastes out of this world.
Favorite Dish: The sticky buns! They had a LOT of stuff that looked DELICIOUS but the sticky buns are made of awesome! Fresh pecans, ample carmel drizzle and cinnamon, and the pastry part was so soft and so fresh! I'm getting hungry just thinking about it again.Related to:

Graeter's: Graeter's Is Great
This is a chain of sweet shops throughout Cinci that sell a variety of items but you need to experience the ice cream. They make it the way it was made in the early 1800s and there is a marked difference. I've heard it explained but basically there's less air or something? Whatever the reason, it's worth the trip to Ohio to taste.
They have a variety of flavors but the different "chip" flavors are what they're known for.
Favorite Dish: Black raspberry chip, made the old-fashioned way, is creamy and the chips are all different sizes and shapes making every lick an adventure. So delicious, so fun.Related to:

Old Dutch Restaurant: The Dinner From Hell
This restaurant is supposed to be a buffett. I've eaten there once or twice before, though not overly impressed, it would have been very sufficient for our group of twenty. We stop there between 6-7PM on Sunday evening. We have about a 20 minute wait to be seated. Every once in a while I'd poke my head into the seating area and on more than one occasion I saw people, specifically this one woman, shoving this hugh chicken breast into her purse.
Once we were seated it took another 15-20 minutes or more to get tableware. We went to get some food, but there was very little left at the buffett. After inquiring we were told that there was food on the way. Once a SMALL amount was restocked people who were already there swarmed in like starving animals and scarfed up everything that was just provided. After complaining about chicken purse lady and the lack of service essentially we were told there wasn't going to be any more.
This was the WORST RESTAURANT EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE. I would NEVER go back there and I DO NOT recommend ever eating there.
Favorite Dish: I couldn't tell you.
Schmidt's Restaurant and Sausage Haus: A Columbus Tradition
Schmidt's is a Columbus icon in German Village and was also shown on Discover Channel's Man vs. Food show, which I love to watch. I had the luck to stop by Schmidt's for lunch recently while in town on work. I decided to get the buffet so that I had time to sample a little bit of everything, except for the beer on tap, which I would love to try one evening when I am back in town.
The line to be seated was pretty long and from what I hear they are almost always busy, so arrive patient and prepared for a little wait. The atmosphere is casual if not a little cramped.
Schmidt's makes their own sausages right on site and there is a glass case full of them right as you walk in. Staring at those delectible sausages makes waiting for a seat that much more difficult.
The sausages are delicious. I sampled the traditional bratwurst, the Bahama Mama (spicy sausage), the mild Bahama Mama, and garlic bratwurst. My favorite was the Bahama Mama, which was spicy, but not overwhelmingly so. The traditional bratwurst came in second.
I had sides of a role, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese and excellent green beans with ham and small chunks of potato.
For dessert (as if I needed dessert) I got a jumbo chocolate puff pastry to go (this was not included in the buffet and cost $2.50 extra).
That was just the buffet. In looking at the menu, many of the traditional dinners (i.e. Alpine Chicken Schnitzel, Bavarian Cabbage Rolls, etc...) also looked out of this world good.
Favorite Dish: The Bahama Mama sausage melts in your mouth with a slight spicy kick. Best sausage I have ever had.
The green beans with ham and small potato chunks are also a fantastic side dish.Related to:

Marcella's: Great Italian food for a great price!
The atmosphere is very nice. they even have an outdoor patio to dine, and a separate bar area as wel. Their wine selection is larger than their food selection,which are each on one side of the menu. At this time, none of the menu dishes are more than $20. Their olive oil & bread are "home-made", too! The walls are decorated with glass-encased shelving that has full bottles of various liquors. They have tables and half-booths against the walls. Very nice!
For a "guy", you'll likely finish your plate. The serving size is not tremendous, so you may want to splurge for an appetizer if you go their with a strong appetite. But they also have a dessert menu, so you may want to save some room for that, so you can "share" it! 8o)
Favorite Dish: The food was fabulous! I had the meatball and linguine, which came with an alfredo sauce for the linguine, and a tomato sauce for the meatball. The meatball was fantastic!! Melt in you mouth-type food. The sangria was very good, too, as well as the bread and oil. The oil was very light. A definite repeat-trip is worthy.
You can either google this place, or check out the website below and even see the menu and the hours they are open.
This is one of the Cameron Mitchell restaurants. Another one is Molly Woo's.

Tony Packo's -: Famous Hot Dogs
Tony Packo's Hungarian hot dogs and chili are purely awesome and I always try to stop by for lunch whenever I am in Toledo on business. This was one of Corporal Max Klinger's (from the 70's era show MASH) favorite restaurants, and when it comes to hot dogs, Klinger can't be wrong. I believe he actually mentioned Packo's in 1 of the episodes or in an interview, I'm not sure which.
The hot dogs are spicier than you average dog. So is the chili. Together they make a great combination.
They have about 5 locations in NW Ohio, with one of the newest being near the Toledo Mudhens AAA baseball stadium. The restaurants are always clean and the service is good.
Favorite Dish: Hot dogs with the works - chili, onions, etc...
Geisen Haus: German Food and Beer
The Geisen Haus is the best place to go for a casual, greasy, fun dinner and drink in Canton, Ohio. I love the atmosphere, the people and the food. The Geisen Haus is not recommended for those on a diet, vegetarian, or those with a history of heart disease. Almost everything is fried (shnitzel) and if it isn't fried, it's stewed. Yum.
In addition to the food, the Geisen Haus has over 70 different beers for your tasting pleasure. Most of them are imported and many from Germany; however, there are also English, Irish and domestic beers. For regulars, you can drink all of them (not in 1 sitting hopefully) and receive a ceramic mug that is then hung on the wall and you can use it when you are there. For those that do the beer tour twice, you get a T-shirt. Three times I think a coat or something crazy like that.
I am usually satisfied with my schnitzel (chicken, beef or jager), fries, and a German import.
Favorite Dish: Schnitzel and a beer.
Caribbean Jerks: A little bit of the Caribbean right here
We visited Caribbean Jerks on Dec. 21st. While everyone was rushing around Christmas shopping we enjoyed a little bit of summer with our lunch. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was fun. The decor made us feel like we were on an island somewhere. It's not as fancy as the Cheeseburger in Paradise just down the road but it didn't cost as much either.
Favorite Dish: We enjoyed the rum bbq chicken pizza and jerk chicken wings.Related to:

Benders Tavern: Serving Canton for Over 100 Years
One of the best things about visiting Canton, Ohio, was having the opportunity to eat at the nationally famous Benders Tavern (Since 1902), known as Canton's Oldest and Finest Restaurant.
If only the walls of this beautiful old establishment could talk! They have witnessed so much in the 104 years since Benders Tavern opened in 1902. There was a tragic fire in 1988, but still the beauty of this historic place remains (thank goodness) with its tin ceilings, marble, and tiger oak paneling surviving the blaze.
The Jacob family (since 1932) continues the traditions of fine food, drink, and hospitality that has prevailed for more than a century.
We were so fortunate to have Randy Mayle as our helpful, friendly, efficient waiter.As you can tell in Picture #1, he has a welcoming smile at the ready.
Picture #2 shows the beautiful presentation of the delicious food served at Benders
Picture #3 is really two photographs of the old entrance signs on each side of the building.
Picture #4 is a large Black/white post card with a picture of Benders Taproom in 1902, looking much the same as it does today. It was given to me by Randy.
Finally, picture #5 (apologies for the darkness) is inside Benders looking toward the Taproom today.
There are four dining rooms and the taproom here at Benders, and all of them maintain "the old world atmosphere" that makes the restaurant truly great.
Favorite Dish: Bender's Tavern has a wide and diverse menu; there's something to please everyone.
They have appetizers such as shrimp, mackeral, smoked Maine salmon, Cape Cod little neck clams, sauteed frog legs, Oyster's on the half shell, and New England Crabmeat Cocktail.
They also offer a wide array of Seafood dishes such as Camp Kagel Style Walleye Pickerel, Stuffed Fresh Flounder with Crabmeat, Sauteed "Georges Banks" Sea Scallops, Surf & Turf, Pan Sauteed Lake Erie Yellow Perch, Bender's Classic Fried Bluefish among many others.
Of course, they offer Salads (9 choices). Jill and I shared a fantastic salad that had mixed lettuces, Madrin oranges, pecans, Feta Cheese, and Cranraisins with a delicious, mild vinegarette. It also had white meat chicken pieces that had been deep fried. I ordered it on the side because I don't like meats on my salads. However, Jill and I did enjoy the chicken off the salad.
Jill ordered the deep Fried Lake Erie Yellow Perch, which she shared with me. It was marvelous. It came with Bender's Potatoes. I don't eat potatoes, but Jill "raved" about them.
She had a side dish of coleslaw also.
Also offered on the menu are Sandwiches such as Fried Fresh Boston Bluefish, Turkey or Classic Rueben, 8 oz. Angus Burger, Tuna Melts, Chicken Caesar Wrap, Barbeque Chicken Breast.
For dinner they also offer Certified Black Angus Strip Steak, Royal Filet, Regular Filet, Ribeye Steak, Char-broiled Pork Chops, Chicken Marsala, and Pasta Primavera
Their desserts sounded just yummy: Bender's Famous Chocolate Peanut Butter Sundaes, Walnut Delight (light pastry filled with walnuts and layered with a whipped cream topping, New York Style Cheesecake plain or with strawberries, and Chef's Weekly Specials.
Bsides desserts, they offer Coffee & Specialty Drinks.Related to:

Ye Old Mill and Velvet Ice Cream: For Ice Cream Lovers
Do you have a "sweet tooth"? If so, visiting Velvet Ice Cream's Ye Olde Mill is a must.
It's located in Utica, Ohio, just over the Knox and Licking County line.
Since 1914, Velvet has been making ice cream, and what wonderful ice cream it is! If you are at all curious, it would be wise to go on a tour of the ice cream factor where you look through glass windows to see the process. Also, Ye Olde Mill is Ohio's only Ice Cream Museum. It houses this quaint museum that tells the story of ice cream from Roman times to the present. There is antique ice cream-making machines, interactive facts to discover, and typical furniture from ice cream parlors.
The original Grist Mill was built in 1817; today, the reproduced Grist Mill adds lovely ambience to this delightful area. Besides the museum and Mill, there is also a visitor center, a 19th century style ice cream parlor, a restaurant, gift shop, nature trails, a petting zoo, picnic park and shelter houses, and a Buckeye tree grove.
Favorite Dish: Jill and I ate lunch and had dessert at the Ye Olde Mill. I chose a Turkey Panini Melt which is slices of grilled turkey breast, onions, tomatoes, and mozzarella cheese. It has sun dried tomato pesto on it within two delicious slices of bread. It is much to large for one person.
Jill chose an Olde Tyme Chicken Reuben made of specially seasoned slices of grilled turkey and Swiss cheese, sauerkraut topped with 1000 Island dressing on marbled rye bread.
For dessert we both had double dips of ice cream on a waffle cone. Our selections Chocolate Nuts and Maple Black Walnut. YUM!Related to:

Sips in Mount Vernon, Ohio: For Great Coffee and Other Drinks....
After a day of sightseeing and shopping, a good coffeehouse is a welcome sight. Jill and I were looking for the Opera House, thinking that it had been restored. We were shocked when we saw it. But on the first floor, there is a local theatre company and a coffee shop called Sips.
We needed a public restroom, and we were also thirsty, so we stopped in to check it out. What a delight. Not only do they sell coffee and coffee drinks, they also sell fruit smoothies, tea, and colas. Also, they sell coffee beans, pastries, sandwiches, soups, and other sweets.
There are also two computers that can be used. They were in use the whole time that we were there.
We were so glad that the downstairs of the Opera House had been remodeled and was serving the community with theatre and food.
Favorite Dish: Jill and I ordered a Raspberry Smoothie, which we shared; we were more than satisfied.
The young man who worked behind the counter was so nice about letting us have two glasses to share one drink.Related to:

Katie's Kitchen: A Taste of Amish Cooking
If you are in Mount Vernon and wish to try Amish-style cooking, it would be a good idea to try Katie's Kitchen on South Main Street. Note: They are closed on Sunday as are all Amish establishments.
They are, however, open Monday through Saturday from 11:00 am-8:00 pm.
The prices are quite reasonable, as the most expensive item on the entire menu is $9.29! They also offer what they call "Back Door Pick-Up", directing you to the Bright Red Door!
They offer Salads, Soups, Sandwiches, Dinner, Desserts, Drinks, Ala Carte Items, and Daily Specials.
The inside is plain, clean, and well organized. The emphasis is on good, hearty meals. The personnell seem friendly and helpful.
Favorite Dish: My suggestion would be to order Soup of the Day, The Daily Special or Roast Beef (Slow Roasted), Homemade Amish Dressing, and Bread Pudding w/Caramel Sauce..
Daily Specials are served with Bread and Butter and usually cost about $6.29Related to:

Fiesta Grande: Loved the Chile Poblano
After hearing about this place from my oldest daughter and her
husband, I took my wife and youngest daughter there for lunch.
We had a very pleasant experience. The food was expertly
and quickly prepared, and the cost was quite low compared to
other places in the area.
The food arrived on our table in less than 15 minutes of being ordered.
The most expensive item on the menu is about $15.00, but all the regular
dinners are $10.00 or less, and lunches are all about $5.00.
The personnel are very friendly making it a very pleasant place to eat.
Favorite Dish: I had the #27 Combination, which consist of one beef burrito, one chile poblano, and one beef taco. The poblano pepper was quite a bit larger than I have had anywhere else, and was excelant. The cheese used in this meal was a white mexican cheese which had a very
nutty, and slightly sweet flavor, and perfectly offset the mildly spiced food.Related to:

Rap Icon Rick Ross Joins STARZ's MAGIC CITY
"Magic City" has added another famous face to its all-star lineup. Season two of the critically acclaimed series will feature legendary rapper Rick Ross as "Butterball," the proprietor of an illegal Cuban/American gambling house in Miami known as a "bolita," (the Numbers racket). There are numerous bolitas in the Miami area and not surprisingly, Ben "the Butcher" Diamond (Golden Globe(R) nominee for Best Supporting Actor, Danny Huston) is getting a cut from the illicit operations.
Ross burst onto the rap scene in 2006 when his debut album "Port of Miami" reached the top of the Billboard Music charts. Ross then founded the record label, Maybach Music Group, on which he released his studio albums "Deeper Than Rap" (2009) "Teflon Don" (2010) and "God Forgives, I Don't" (2012). A huge fan of the series, Ross visited the "Magic City" set while in Miami last year and met the show's creator Mitch Glazer who found a role for him.
The new season of "Magic City" will also see the return of creator and executive producer Mitch Glazer (The Recruit, Scrooged) as well as performers Jeffrey Dean Morgan (Watchmen, "Grey's Anatomy") whose recent film The Possession held the number one spot at The Box Office three weeks in a row, Olga Kurylenko (Quantum of Solace, Max Payne), Danny Huston (The Kingdom, Children of Men, X-Men Origins: Wolverine), Kelly Lynch (Drugstore Cowboy, Charlie's Angels), Steven Strait (City Island), Christian Cooke (Cemetery Junction), Jessica Marais ("Packed to the Rafters"), Yul Vazquez (The A-Team, American Gangster), Dominik Garcia-Lorido (City Island) and Elena Satine (Just Go With It).
Along with Mitch Glazer, Geyer Kosinski (Changeling, The Astronaut Farmer) and Fred Berner ("Law & Order," "Law & Order: Criminal Intent") serve as executive producers.
Season two of "Magic City" will air exclusively on STARZ in summer 2013.

inakustik is pleased to announce the December 3rd release of Michael Schenker's "Temple of Rock: Live in Europe" that will be released on CD, DVD, Blu-ray and as a Limited Deluxe Edition containing all 3 formats. This essential live rock'n'roll release includes songs performed live in Tilburg, The Netherlands in May 2012, and at London's High Voltage Festival in 2011.
Schenker sees his music as a building block in the construction of the Temple Of Rock. "The Temple is almost finished," explains Michael. "The foundation was laid in the 60s by Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple and Black Sabbath. The walls were then built by UFO and others in the 70s. By the 80s it was further reinforced by the likes of the Scorpions, and many more influential rock bands."
The Tilburg gig, recorded May 2012, features Schenker (lead guitar), Doogie White (vocals), Herman Rarebell (drums), Francis Buchholz (bass) and Wayne Findley (rhythm guitar, keyboards). London's 2011 High Voltage Festival features Michael Voss (vocals), Rudolf Schenker (The Scorpions) who plays rhythm guitar on "Rock You Like a Hurricane", "Hanging On" and "Doctor Doctor", UFO's Pete Way who plays bass guitar on "Doctor Doctor", and vocalists Jeff Scott Soto (ex-Journey) and Doogie White, who both sing on "Doctor Doctor".

Fresh from its discovery of the Higgs boson, the Large Hadron Collider is taking a two-year break. But there is no vacation for the engineers who run the collider, nor the physicists who crunch its data.
Since 2009, the LHC, at CERN near Geneva, Switzerland, has mostly been smashing together two beams of protons. The beams each reached peak energies of 4 trillion electronvolts, enough to discover the Higgs, the particle that bestows mass on others.
Over the next two years, engineers will be giving the machine a revamp that will push it to 7 or 7.5 TeV per beam, its maximum design energy. The interconnects between the LHC's 1695 superconducting magnets will be rebuilt, for example.
More energy should reveal more new particles, such as evidence of dark matter, so-called "superpartners" to complement ordinary particles, and hints of extra dimensions.
Physicists, meanwhile, are busy determining the exact nature of the Higgs boson using existing data.

Gear Question
Dawn renea
Hey this looks like an awesome tent for...
Hey this looks like an awesome tent for my boyscout son. It is lightweight. the thing is he has to share it with another scout and be able to store a foot locker and/or a hiking bag in it. Is it big enough and would you recommend it for him?
Federico Garcia
Yea sure these tent would be great for him it is super light and has a big access door, and if you are concerned about space you could get the vestibule for these tent that is sold separately. http://www.blackdiamondequipment.com/en-us/shop/mountain/shelters/hilight-tent-vestibule
James Jenden
I would say look elsewhere. This tent would probably be fine, but there're better suited tents out there for a lot less money. Look at the REI half dome or Mountain Hardwear lightwedge. They're both about $200 cheaper and have vestibules meaning you'd save another $140 by not having to buy one for the hilight. Its also very small, he and the other kid are gonna be really cozy in this thing. Also look at the marmot limelight.
Shawn K.
Boy Scout tent? Depends on the scout. You mentioned sharing it, and putting a foot locker inside. Both of those requirements would best be met by other tents. James Jenden gave you some good advice.
Ben C
this thing won't last too long in scouts either, and its pretty hard to fit even a daypack inside with two people. A cheap 3 season would work just fine for scouts.
