There has been a lot of talk that Rhino will be jumping back to WWE for the new ECW project. Earlier this year, he did talk with WWE and tell them he would be able to get out of his TNA contract. Talks died down soon after that though, but in the last few weeks, Rhino feels like TNA has screwed him over a few things, especially his short title reign. It's being reported that he talked with John Lauranitis within the last month. His departure from the company last year wasn't based on anything having to do with Rhino's talent, rather just the fact that Rhino went mental at the lobby of the hotel during WrestleMania and even threw a large potted plant. Many in TNA see Rhino's current program with Team Canada as Rhino's way of doing the job before leaving the company.

On a related note, Rhino injured his ribs at Sacrifice on Sunday, but has said he will be fine.

Rhino's jobbing to Bobby Rude and Abyss recently probably hasn't helped anything. I mean, Abyss is fine, but Bobby freaking Rude?

And I caught the Dudley's promo on Impact! talking about leaving ECW dead and all this crap. You know damn well they'd be loving every second of it if they were so damn bland and got fired.

Anywhoo, Rhino isn't a must for ECW like Heyman, Van Dam and Sabu are, but he's always a welcome addition, especially if they get a TV spot.

[SF Kid]

Never liked Rhino.

[Halladay_is_God]

Rhino would really help the ECW brand, he was the last Heavyweight Champion in ECW, since the WWE will have to use its own lower-card talent to fill roles.

even if he is old now, Raven would really help the new ECW

[SF Kid]

Raven is another guy I just never warmed up to. Whatever, it'll be interesting.

[Witlon]

What the hell is Smackdown thinking? Mark Henry beating Angle? I know it was via countout, but are they trying to flush his credibility down the toilet? *sigh*

And this Great Khali push has to end. No more matches with Taker. No more matches with anyone until he learns some basics in OVW.

[Hmark6]

I refuse to watch SD! until Rey drops the strap.

[Witlon]

Who would Rey drop the strap to? There's no top heel on Smackdown(JBL is the US champ, he couldn't drop it to him. Finlay's getting a midget sidekick. Khali can't work a match for shit.)

Angle and Benoit are the only guys that would be better than Rey with that belt and they haven't been built up well enough to be a champion.

Someone forgot about Batista!!!

Rey will drop the strap when Batista comes back.

[Slyder]

What about working Booker in as a heel? He just won KoR. Also what about Lashley?

[SF Kid]

Rey will drop the strap when Batista comes back.

What is the schedule for Batista's return? Anybody know? Summersalm?

[ghettochild]

MNM got fired from SD last night, its been rumored that they will be going to RAW.

could MNM be joining the new dX?

I hope not they seemed to be a more annoying (and less talented) version of the Spirit Squad. Granted I havent watch Smackdown in a long time cause of work so if im off let me know. Plus with Melina that means we will be seeing more "eye candy" (insert special stip here) matches that Vince seems to think people enjoy so much .

[Witlon]

I can't see anyone other than Trips and Shawn being in the new DX, unless Waltman comes back. And that'd be a mistake.

Didn't Nitro and Mercury get into a fight last night? I don't understand some of these decisions.

[ghettochild]

- There was a dark match before Judgment Day last night that saw Matt Hardy defeat Simon Dean.

- There is talk of moving Melina and Johnny Nitro to Raw.

- Dave Meltzer reports that there has been talk backstage of a John Cena Umaga match for Summerslam.
