Ever since he strapped his father’s legendary Million Dollar Championship around his waist, Ted DiBiase has been competing with a newfound edge in WWE. This shot of confidence served him well in the main event of tonight’s “WWE Superstars” when he went one-on-one with the always-exciting MVP. While each Superstar has talent to spare, it was DiBiase’s underhanded tactics that won out tonight as he hit The Ballin’ Superstar with Dream Street to pick up a big victory. Full results.

WWE Superstars Results: Must Be The Money
Jim Ross: No Longer A Fit In WWE?
A few of the wrestling news sites are claiming that top WWE superstars such as Shawn Michaels and The Undertaker requested that JR call their match at WMXXVI and were upset that he wasn't given a bigger role. Ross even wrote in his blog that Vince McMahon didn't make any time for him during WrestleMania weekend.
JR is great on commentary and has shown his loyalty to the WWE, but isn't it time to move on? The IWC has been clamoring for "new blood" in the main events and the WWE has responded with WWE NXT and more changes to come with the upcoming draft. Why wouldn't they look to change announcers too.
I don't understand. Why the uproar? Companies change staff according to their needs. School systems will replace teachers and administrators if they are not performing up to par. Government officials can be voted out. But how dare the WWE replace JR! People seem to forget that JR wasn't taken off of TV. He had another Bells Palsy attack. JR has stated that he more than likely will not be "camera-ready" for the WWE.
Quite frankly I'm tired of the whining. I can understand having a great job and not wanting to give it up, but please stop whining. Personally , I thought JBL was great on commentary but I don't think they will be able to get him off the links.
The WWE may need to tweak the announcer line-up, just like they tweak their roster of wrestlers and divas. A fresh start can be a good thing.
Tiger Woods Should Become a Bad Guy - Golf's Version of Triple H
The next time Tiger Woods plays on the PGA Tour, he should show up in black clothes and dark sunglasses. Steve Williams, his caddie, should carry a golf bag that has a scarlet "X" stitched on it.
Tiger should curse on the golf course enough to make Redd Foxx blush. He should put a Perkins restaurant sticker on his bag. He should throw his clubs like a javelin when he misses an easy putt. He should text-message in between shots. If a reporter asks him about his emotional state, Tiger should channel Bobby Knight and make a bunch of ridiculously juvenile faces.
Tiger should become a bad guy. He should be golf's version of the WWE's Triple H...More?

Since Batista is working his way through the Diva's locker room, I would think that he is more like Tiger than Triple H. I'm just sayin'...
Joyce Grable to be Honoured by CAC
Las Vegas has always been known as America's playground. But to wrestling fans, it is also recognized as the home of the Cauliflower Alley Club.

Monday Ratings Tell Similar Story for Both WWE and TNA
The ratings are in for both wrestling shows on Monday night and there were no major changes for either company.
WWE Raw scored a 3.2 rating with 4,700,000 viewers which is almost identical to the numbers from last week. The rating for the company's flagship show has been down about a half a point from earlier this year.
Meanwhile, TNA iMPACT! scored a 0.8 rating with 1,100,000 viewers which is slightly down from the previous week. Some of that could be attributed to its new 8:00PM ET start on Spike TV. Regardless, the rating for iMPACT! since moving to Monday nights has to be viewed as a disappointment so far.
The TNA ReAction program which debuted the hour before iMPACT! drew a 0.25 rating with nearly 280,000 viewers. Not a surprise considering that there was almost no promotion for the show in advance.
