Comment of the Day 
Curtis Williams brings up the old drugs debate questioning why cannabis is banned, along with many pro wrestlers:
I don't understand why WWE is counting Marijuana as a strike. The lesser the pill related deaths the better. I'd much rather my workers getting high and eating Pizza in their hotel rooms than possibly risking Heart Attack and bad PR.
On This Day...
Brock Lesnar defeated Hardcore Holly for the WWE Title in what would be Holly's only WWE main event push (well, let's not rule it out JUST yet..). Stevie Richards (I think..?) went on to win the Royal Rumble, after entering the match at #1. (2004)
Hollywood Hogan and The Giant went to a thrilling No Contest at Souled Out. The Steiners also defeated The Outsiders for the WCW Tag Team Titles, as well as Eddie Guerrero facing Syxx (Sean Waltman) in a ladder match for the US Title. (1997)
