The Sandman announces his retirement.

http://www.myspace.com/officialsandmanmyspace

Ladies & Gentlemen,

I Just Spoke With Sandman & He Wanted Me To Let you All Know That After Speaking With Tommy Dreamer & Having A Long Talk He Has Decided That After 20 + Years In The Pro Wrestling Business That It Is Time To Hangup The Boots & Call It Quits. He Would Like To Thank All Of You Fans That Have Supported Him Throughout His Time In & Around Wrestling. His Last Match Date Will Be Announced In The Coming Weeks. You Can Still Book Him In These Few Weeks. BUT After That He Said He Is Done. He Has A TWO Month Old Child & A Girlfriend To Look After So Now It Is Time To Step Out of The Spotlight.

Thanks A Bunch

Team Sandman

Another legend hangs up his boots

He'll be at the PPV in one way shape or form, local advertising in Phoenix is apparently heavily featuring Austin.

iirc the buyrates for cyber sunday have been the lowest out of all 14 of the PPVs for the past few years so stone cold will be used to attract some more viewers in

utajoker · 8 Oct 2008 at 11:53

do the wwe fix the votes then?

sunlitsix · 8 Oct 2008 at 13:13

it wouldnt surprise me

shaffaaf27 · 8 Oct 2008 at 13:55

but tbh the choices they have given surely lead to stone cold getting it.

they do this everyyear, where its obvious out of the choices which one will be chosen.

Not a chance.

And I think Jeff would have won it if he had kept his act clean since his suspension - getting drunk and taken off a flight doesn't exactly make you popular in the eyes of the McMahons.

I think HHH is a good champion, but he's just outstaying his welcome now. It's gone from "great, HHH is champion" to "great, Vince's son is champion".

he needs a heel turn fast, as does cena

Gotta be Honky Tonk surely?

What with the Honk-a-meter?

shaffaaf27 · 10 Oct 2008 at 00:53

golddust has to be one of the best gimmicks i have seen, the shattered dreams was a favourite of all my mates in primary school.

god i love the attitude era, where all of us belived wrestling was real, and no one was a smark

IMO brink back the boorklyn brawler so we can have a fun as hell jobber to watch, or doink the clown

utajoker · 10 Oct 2008 at 08:44

i think the rock should return, ever for just one nite to kick everyones ass, that will get the ratings up
