When a wrestler wears a black armband, it's for someone who died.

The symbol in the background means juxtaposition of love and hate/anger, or life and death. The symbol is sported as a tattoo by many HIM fans, including professional skater and "Jackass" stuntman Bam Margera

At that time Bret Hart's WWE contract expired that same day. Earlier that week Bret Hart had an agreement with Vince McMahon to win the match. Vince later screwed Bret by ringing the bell before the match was over thus having it look like Bret was tapping out to the sharpshooter which was applied by Shawn Michaels. I think Vince screwed Bret because he didnt want Bret to take the WWE title to WCW which was still around at that time.

The Rock - maybe. A lot of things seem to be surfacing in WWE on this one. Who knows?\n\nBret Hart - don't keep your hopes up. Not only did he suffer a stroke a few years ago, he and Vince are still on the outs. They patched things up enought for Bret's induction into the hall of fame, but for nothing more than that, sorry. :(

I got this from 411mania.com - that site it awesome for wrestling news.\n\n"Some more information on the Randy Orton situation has come out. First of all, it has nothing to do with the baseline drug testing that was recently administered. Apparently Orton has been having issues since January, when Kurt Angle was brought to Smackdown. There have been a number of disciplinary problems since then that have been kept inside the company. During the WrestleMania weekend, he flagrantly defied the dress code. All of these issues have been building, causing a lot of heat with the locker room. It looks like this all came to a climax and WWE felt that they had no choice but to discipline him."

He's in TNA where he goes by the names of both KC James and Kip James. He was with Billy Gunn as part of the James Gang. they took some time offand have reappeared as the VKM - voodoo kin mafia - and they've challenged DX\nHe won't be coming back to the WWE - FACT. He was fired for a series of drug-related problems. As far as vince is concerned - that's a big no-no.there's rumours of a one-off fight between DK & VKM, but i'd really doubt it. There's never been any inter-promo matches between TNA & WWE.

He is not wrestling as of now. He was dropped by the WWE.\nread on. . . . . . \n\nMarty Jannetty claimed the reason he was dropped was because he wasn't allowed for parole reasons to travel to Alabama on Monday and thus WWE had to drop him from a continuing storyline, and that WWE is trying to help him clear it up so he can return. He was also critical of what was reported (on the internet). He (Meltzer) was given the info from somone in the WWE current inner circle that Jannetty being gone was not a work, along with the specifics already reported, as well as that creative was told to proceed as if he was gone, erase him from the already written TV and that he would never be used again. Of course in wrestling, you know what "never" means.

I like his new look.  Since he is in TNA now he should alter his look a little from his WCW days.

OK answers to all you questions!:\n\n1. they didn't put tatanka on the game because when it was being created early this year , tatanka had only just signed a legends contract , and they thought that he wouldn't be a permanent feature of the roster!it now turns out he is permanent , but there is nothing they could do about it!\n\n2. I'm sorry i don't know about that one!but you are correct!\n\n3.  he doesn't look anything like the dusty roads now, but the dusty on SD vs raw 07 is the original dusty roads when he first started! its not the American dream dusty roads ( when he used to dress in polka dots) its before he " dined and wined with kings and queens , and slept in allys and eaten pork and beans!\n\n4. diesel - no because he isn't a superstar and he isn't a legend\n    Yoko- defiantly , its just a matter of time\n    doink- maybe , i wouldn't count on it\n    razor ramone- hmmmm... not at this point in time, maybe later\n     demolition-a legendary tag team very likely!\n     goldust- off course , when he is in the hall of fame, not yet!\n\n5. i do like the different cloths on SD vs raw 07 but , there is not enough , there is not as many as on SD vs raw 06!\n\nhope this helps you!

Black band is usually to grieve and pray tribute to a player or personality\nIt is also sometimes worn to show protest. For example, a few teams visiting Zimbabew wore black armbands to protest against the dicator Mugabe

Taylor once wrestled a match for the World Wrestling Federation against Bam Bam Bigelow. The match was a "special main event" at Wrestlemania XI, on April 2, 1995 in Hartford, Connecticut. Bigelow (after a loss and claims that Taylor was taunting him) had shoved Taylor when he was at ringside at a prior event, and the match was soon thereafter signed. Taylor ended up winning the match, fittingly with several shoulder tackles.

In a spring 2004 storyline, Paul Bearer was kidnapped by The Dudley Boyz under the direction of Paul Heyman. This was set up in order to temporarily write Bearer out of WWE storylines because Pringle had to undergo emergency gallbladder surgery after suddenly developing gallstones (a frequent side effect of gastric bypass surgery).\n\nFor the June 27, 2004 PPV The Great American Bash, a match pitting Undertaker against both of the Dudley Boyz was booked. Paul Bearer would be encased in a glass crypt backstage, covered up to his chest in cement. In the storyline, Heyman demanded that Undertaker throw the match or else see Bearer suffocated in cement. By the time of the PPV, Pringle had recovered from his latest operation and would appear on-screen.\n\nUndertaker won the match but proceeded afterwards to pull the lever that sent cement into the crypt, completely burying Paul Bearer and, in kayfabe terms, suffocating him. (Pringle was in the crypt throughout the event but was replaced with a stunt double for the burial.(Who when having huge plants on him , it appears that isn't Bearer because he appears younger.) This shot ended the PPV and caused numerous complaints toward WWE, as in essence they had shown a (kayfabe) murder. However, the live audience saw an extended ending in which Bearer surfaced for air and was carried from the arena on a stretcher. On the following week's SmackDown!, Bearer was acknowledged to be alive, although gravely injured, for kayfabe purposes. However, having two years remaining on his contract, Pringle's WWE career wasn't over; he was used as a booker for the company up until WWE decided to terminate his contract, giving him ninety days notice on April 11, 2005.\n\nOn June 10, 2005, Pringle announced that he had signed a new deal with WWE which would allow WWE to market his persona and which would involve him attending autograph sessions and making promotional appearances.\n\nPringle's health has greatly improved since his surgery. His official site has a page featuring pictures of him, one taken the night before his bypass surgery and a second taken on the first anniversary of the operation. One year later, he admitted in an entry on his blog (see November 2005 archives) that he had weighed 525 pounds (238 kg) before the operation but is now under 300 pounds (136 kg).\n\nPringle has started his own independent promotion, known as Gulf South Wrestling. He released two shoot interviews conducted for the promotion Ring of Honor, one featuring longtime manager Jim Cornette. He has also returned to the funeral business
