TEW05 Real World Update: January 2011

[JonathanYork]

You know I really think that Adam Pearce should have higher mic skills than C+. They guy can cut some pretty good promos. I think at least a B is justified.

Random Notes

- Stevie Richards has confirmed via twitter that he has quit TNA.

-Mike Posey has been wrestling more than officiating.

- WGN America is now availible in the Tri State area.

- As of 4/4/11 ROH's contract is up with HDNet. Not sure how soon you want to remove it, although there is a chance they could come to a new contract.

- Change CM Punk gimmick to Cult Leader

- Abraham Washington finisher should be In Your Face (pinfall)

- Tick Law Problems for Mike Adamle.

Smackdown Spoilers

- Remove Justin Gabriel and Heath Slater from The Nexus and move them to SD. Also make Zeke Jackson heel and put him on Smackdown. These three, along with Barrett assaulted The Big Show and clearly have made an alliance. Possibly call them The Nexus and Punk's group The New Nexus?

I'd keep ROH on HDNet for now until their contract is up for the April game. As of right now ROH and HDNet are on good terms and may do live specials in the future.

The Wade Barrett SmackDown group does not have a name yet from what I understand so I'd wait on naming the group.

To make things easier the PPV dates are set generically for both WWE and TNA, for TNA its every 2nd week and WWE every 3rd week thats cause TNA shows mostly happen before WWE ones each month, i would set it to the specific week each month but they change each year hence keeping them the same to save editing them more than needed.
