CW Suffers From No SmackDown
CW just suffered period — although it will be interesting to see if they can make any claims at all with women 18-34. We won’t see that data until next week, but either way bleeding off ~2.5 million viewers with the departure of SmackDown isn’t good news.

EliteXC Heat Results: Kimbo Slice vs. Seth Petruzelli
Fight change: Ken Shamrock suffered a cut over his left eye while rolling on the mat with a training partner on Saturday. The cut required multiple stitches and the commission doctor would not clear Shamrock to fight Kimbo Slice in the advertised main event of the Elite XC show. Slice will instead face Seth Petruzelli in the main event.
Petruzelli throws two quick teeps looking to keep a rushing Slice away from him. As Kimbo closes in, Petruzelli lands an awkward short right that drops Slice to the mat. As Kimbo makes it to his knees, Petruzelli attacks with a volley of hammerfists, and pushes Kimbo onto his back. Petruzelli doesn't pause with his punches, and continues smashing away with a barrage of right hands until Troy Waugh rescues the prone Slice just 14 seconds into the first round.

Kaliqo's No Mercy Predictions, Picks & Speculations
WWE Champion Triple H vs. Jeff Hardy
A lot of different scenarios here, but I would like to see Jeff win the title and Hunter enter a different program. Koslov or Edge could interfere and cost Hunter the title.
Shawn Michaels v. Chris Jericho - World Heavyweight Championship Ladder Match
Jericho will retain, but HBK will put on another great show.
ECW Champion Matt Hardy vs. Mark Henry
As I have said many times, I do not like ECW. I'm glad they changed the belt. The new one is very nice. Hopefully Matt Hardy gets to keep it.
Batista v. JBL - World Heavyweight Championship No. 1 Contender Match
JBL should have stayed at the commentating table. There are lots of rumors going around that JBL would like one last title run and that Batista wants time off. Batista should win and then go after Chris Jericho. CM Punk could figure into that also.
Big Show vs. Undertaker
Two big guys wrestling and one of them is reportedly hurt. I'm expecting a lot of interference to make this interesting. Maybe the return of Edge. Undertaker's entrance is worth the price of admission alone.
Rey Mysterio vs. Kane
I'm guessing the WWE wants Rey Mysterio out of his mask. He wrestled without it when he was in WCW. Kane should win and force Mysterio to remove his mask. I would like to see Kane go back to wearing the mask.
Beth Phoenix v. Candice Michelle - Women's Championship Match:
Hopefully Candice Michelle has improved from that debacle she called a return match. I don't pay too much attention to the Divas, but Beth should retain the the title.
NYFF Review: The Wrestler
...The movie is, simply, stellar, an American parable and moving drama found in an unlikely place. Everyone has outdone themselves...More?
