that'll be cos he was ostracised after he was juicing whilst randy was feuding with the undertaker and it was revealed he had a Hepatitis, or something, i believe Mr Callaway wasn't best pleased when he found out.

Needles to say, i don't thin Bob stayed around much longer after that.

Wasn't it the Hell in a Cell between Taker & Orton? Bob bled all over Taker and didn't tell anyone he was Hep C. I believe Taker had to be physically restrained when he found out. Stupid really.

The guy who made the runin last night in the Punk-Cena match last night was Mason Ryan [Barri Griffiths, AKA Goliath from the newer Gladiators series] who's commonly referred to as the Welsh Batista.

Wonder why WWE are so obsessed with creating names (usually lame ones) for people? They do it all the time e.g. Monty Brown was a perfectly good name, so they change it to the stupid Marcus Cor Von, Bryan Danielson to Daniel Bryan - any point? IMO Goliath (which I'm sure they could have used seeing as how Gladiators doesn't exist now) would have been a good name.

so they can trademark them for merchandising purposes, also if said sports entertainer gets future endeavoured he then can't trade or make money off WWE's 'identity' or character.

Imagine an American trying to saying "Goliath" in a bad Welsh accent.

THAT is why he won't be called Goliath.

Surely it would have been more marketable (esp in this PG Era) then a Mason Ryan t-shirt though?!

Royal Rumble will be a 40 man event this year.

Kinda thinking it's being booked that way because the lower card is a bit weak this year so they needed to do something to fill out the PPV running time

Sounds good to me, cool as hell the Rumble!

Speaking of which, search ' Paul London Royal Rumble' on one of those popular video sharing websites, talk about a sweet elimination.

Chris Jericho referred to Mason Ryan as 'Batistwo' which I think is an apt name.

Is this fella going to be in the Nexus? From what I hear from FCW his work is the sh!ts and is nowhere near being ready.

Also a 40 man rumble will be fun. The rumbles of the last 5 years or so have been so dull and predictable. Remember when you genuinley didn't know who was going to win? Every year you know it's going to be a certain person or at least one of say 2 or 3 people/.
