So Long Orton, Kelly Kelly

                  “So Long Orton, Kelly Kelly” ?

Lot of rumblings this week about Orton and his second strike. The word is he isn’t playing nice with the top brass and there are certain segments in the WWE that are pushing to get rid of him for good. While I know the RKO Marks out there are shaking in their collective shoes, the fact of the matter is, is it that big of a loss.

Starting with the bad pub they got a month ago when they had to pull back on putting him in the third Marine movie because of his Military record and the fact that marines from his old unit complained. This could have seriously damaged their armed forces Demographic which has to be pretty big. Now he is serving sixty days for a wellness violation that is his second strike which makes him less likely to get the kind of push he was getting. People are coming out of the wood work and onto the net saying that he is all but gone and the best thing that he can come up with in his only statement on the subject is “Don’t believe everything you read.

Look , I’ll start by saying that I was never a big fan of Orton’s , liked him even less when he pretty much got Kennedy fired , and I don’t think it would be the end of the world if they cut him loose . If you can run Jeff Hardy off for some of the same things, what makes Orton so untouchable? No Mic Skills, a second strike, and as far as I know, Hardy never got anyone fired for back dropping him on his head.

Kelly Kelly has asked for and received some time off to spend with her family and her new boyfriend. For some one who has been a fulltime WWE employee for the past six years starting at the age of eighteen, this isn’t an unusual request. What is unusual is the fact that she is starting to market herself under her real name, Barbie Blank. This would tend to indicate that she isn’t coming back. Both her and the Bella twins gone leaves the Divas quite thin and from what I have seen in FCW they don’t have a lot to bring up. yYou’ve got Kharma in the wings and I still think they made a big mistake with ISIS the Amazon. The girl isn’t hideous freak she’s just really tall. Once again we are at a point where we can redefine the women’s division, will they have the grapefruits to do it, who knows.

TNA is going to have the first induction into their HOF this Sunday and for my money it’s a two horse race. AJ Styles and Jeff Jarret are the two most likely to be considered and as much as I hate to say it , its Jarret’s time to be honored . He’ll never get into the WWE HOF and he and his father built the company from the ground up. They took some talented no names and built a viable alternative to the Evil Empire and for that both him and his father should be the first  in the TNA Hall of Fame. I have a feeling that this whole hall of fame thing is going to segway into a bad storyline .

Speaking of which, Christian is going to be there this Sunday either in a tared segment or live . This is a trade off for letting flair do the WWE HOF when the horsemen went in. Weird huh.

Well that’s it for now. Going to try and have something for slamiversy , wi fi willing. See you soon.
