Ooooo... I read something about this (although none of it involved The Rock) and it's supposed to be starring Steve Carrell (Maxwell Smart) and Anne Hathaway (Agent 99)... I think Steve would fit that role perfectly... Actually, I think he would. They need someone a little sexier and smarter for 99, though. Where would The Rock fit in there? (I'm still waiting for Spy Hunter and Johnny Bravo.) As to Matt Hardy, he was the BETTER of the Hardy Bros on the mike. That should keep everyone awake at night. That first promo after he got back was so deflating. We all had such high hopes and he goes crazy-bananas overboard with the car-crash thing and dashed the whole vibe for the feud.

Watch that horrible, rambling promo upon his return where he ranted for six or so minutes about how he wanted Edge to die in a car crash - the very promo that turned me from a huge Version One fan to not caring about Matt Hardy one bit until the Hardy Boyz reunion. Watch Edge's Shatner-esque promos during his feud with Shawn Michaels. "I-WAS-SCREWWWWED-AT-TABOO-TUESDAY!" This wouldn't have been so bad if he didn't say it EVERY night. Frankly, Edge should be glad Hardy came back since he wasn't very over as a heel before, and that's the truth. Those were hilarious promos by Edge, IMO.

I think Steve would fit that role perfectly... Actually, I think he would. They need someone a little sexier and smarter for 99, though. Where would The Rock fit in there? (I'm still waiting for Spy Hunter and Johnny Bravo.) Sexier and smarter? IDK, but to me Agent 99 was that perfect mix of sexy/smart and sweet, especially in the later episodes when Max made her an honest woman... I figure The Rock might be the villain, or the main henchman for the villain... or maybe, just maybe it's one of those things where The Rock is their top agent, but ends up getting caught, so they just have to send in Maxwell Smart... As for Spy Hunter, from what I've read nobody wants to touch it with a 10 foot pole... Originally, John Woo was set to direct, but I guess he dropped out and the whole project's been put on hold... Funny, considering the game (which was supposed to be based on the movie) has been out for a number of months... Johnny Bravo seems to be dropped, considering there is no IMDB page for it anymore, but The Rock does make a cameo in the Reno: 911! movie. Also, Southland Tales is still set to be released, and another movie where The Rock plays a TO type of football player who finds out he has a 7 year old daughter... I also remember reading something about a movie where Ryan Reynolds wants to marry The Rock's sister, Rock plays a cop who takes him for a ride-along that turns into a crazy adventure like many movies do, but I don't see any info on it... Yeah, I love that guy...

Stone Cold- As we have said many times, and I thought I had short term memory loss, Steve Austin’s movie “The Condemned” is scheduled for release around April 27. That means that one would assume that Austin would have a “role” at Wrestlemania on April 1. What that “role” will be is unknown to yours truly. I would, however, bet the farm that Austin will be prominently featured somehow at Wrestlemania 23. After all the Austin Beer Bashes over the years I never heard of any one getting pulled over and having to explain the aroma of beer to a police officer. I came home with smelly clothes plenty of times myself but never had any issues with the law. Plus, it would have been easy to explain. Much easier than the wrestler in the 70s who loved to smoke pot and bought pot flavored air freshener from a head shop. When ever he was stopped and the police officer smelled the pot smoke the wrestler would break out into a staged belly laugh and show the officer the pot scented room deodorant. I don’t think this hemp lover was ever arrested for pot smoking which is a miracle. hahha... at first I thought he was taking a jab at Van Dam, but now, it seems it would have helped had he been travelling in the car with him and sabu... Pot Flavored air freshener? Brilliant...

And someone get this man back in his Talent Job and let Johnny Ace go panhandle. How can someone with THIS kind of grasp on the product be kept off the job we know he can do like no other? What happened to have JR lose that job in the first place

Good read, thanks for posting.
But I can't get the image of JR and Raven boogieing down with BBQ sauce out of my head.

I usually agree with JR, but the statement about "not inducting too many deceased guys" into the HoF is idiotic. What he said.
