Latest on WWE and & Danielson, Indy Group Copying WCW Events

- An independent wrestling group called Universal Championship Wrestling is doing a show called Road Wild in Sturgis, South Dakota at the Full Throttle Saloon on August 13th. You may remember that WCW ran pay-per-views from Sturgis called Road Wild. The free-admission UCW show will feature wrestling in-front of a biker crowd, just like WCW did. Names like Scott Steiner, Al Snow, Scott Norton, The Barbarian and Ron Simmons are being advertised.

UCW uses other WCW names for their events like Nitro, Super Brawl, Spring Stampede and Clash of the Champions. The promotion’s current Champion is Tommy Dreamer and their roster has several former WCW and WWE stars including Sid, Ivory, Buff Bagwell, David Flair, Disco Inferno, Glacier, Pamela Paulshock, Juventud Guerrera, Rick Steiner, Jazz, Scott Hall, X-Pac and Ultimo Dragon, among others.

- People in WWE indicate that WWE asking fans on Facebook yesterday whether or not they should bring Bryan Danielson back was simply their way of bringing in traffic off the whole Daniel Bryan situation.

As noted before, WWE does want to bring Danielson back once everything blows over from the incident that got him fired.

    The Dreamer name would explain why he has been making appearances at TNA. WWE is one selfish company, alluding to the fact that the only reason why they brought him up was to gain visiting numbers.. just… … … DAMN!

    So let me get this right. WWE fires danielson for chocking some one with a tie, and they said that it was justified because they didn’t want kisds to see that kind of behavior and think it was ok to choke people with their own ties. Then the following week they have the entire faction he just got fired from kidnap a man who can barely walk, steal a car, and commit attemted murder, hit and run, negligent driving and speeding. Thats what we want our kids thinking is ok, not choking some one with a tie but, commiting multiple felonys in a matter of seconds. Way to drop the ball again wwe.

    just because benoit didnt use a vehicle doesnt make it ok. and benoits scumbag actions should warrant firing a man who was adding to the angle they have going!

    i’m starting to believe that they didnt fire danielson for the reason that people say. It just seems to me like wwe is just trying to do stuff just to get attention.

    And i to always believed that wwe owned everything wcw including ppv names and everything.

    Maybe he got fired for a different reason other than the tie!
