Batista Takes Shot At WWE Creative

0

As announced on Friday, Titus O’Neil has been named Celebrity Dad of the Year in 2015 MEGA Dads Awards. Batista, who O’Neil has credited with influencing him to try out for WWE in the late 2000s—he was immediately signed—congratulated him on the honor via Twitter.

Batista immediately followed-up the message with a swipe at WWE’s creative team.

He wrote, “WWE: “@TitusONeilWWE you’re everything a WWE star should be! Get out there and represent our company!! ” Titus: “Then why don’t you give me a push?’ WWE: “Sorry there’s nothing for you creatively” #sameoldbulls–t.”

Batista has long felt that O’Neil is underutilized by WWE. “The Animal” said last August during an interview promoting Guardians of the Galaxy that he would like to work with him when he returns to WWE.

“I also have a really close friend, Thaddeus Bullard, who is Titus O’Neil and he’s actually a really close friend. I think there is a lot that remains to be seen from him and I don’t think they’re doing him justice, they aren’t really using him to his full ability and I’d love to be that guy that kind of brings him up to the next level, so if I could accomplish that, that would be great,” said Batista.

Brie Bella Injured?, Former WWE Creative Member Passes Away

– Brie Bella may have been injured at Friday’s WWE live event in State College, Pennsylvania.

During The Bella Twins vs. Naomi and Tamina Snuka, Brie was going at it with Tamina when she landed bad on her shoulder. The referee threw up the dreaded “X” sign and trainers came out to tend to Brie.

After the match, which The Bella Twins won, Tamina and Naomi double teamed Nikki until Paige returned and made the save.

– Former WWE creative writer Joe Franciosi passed away from a heart attack on Friday. Joe worked on the WWE creative team in 2010 and once did a segment with Ted DiBiase where he took out a fake eye. He was responsible for pitching the William Shatner segment where Shatner performed his own version of WWE theme songs. He most recently did creative for Championship Wrestling from Hollywood and started out with Rick Bassman’s UPW promotion in California.

Below are some tweets remembering Joe:

Rest in Peace Joe Franciosi. I love you brother, see you on the other side…

Dolph Ziggler recently appeared on stage with Britney Spears at her “Piece of Me” show at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas. Ziggler commented to WWE.com about how the appearance came about:

“I’ve tagged Planet Hollywood – which hosts Britney’s ‘Piece of Me’ show – a few times on social media when I visit Las Vegas, saying it’s a cool place, and I’ve seen Britney a couple of time before. They reached out and asked if I wanted to possibly be brought on stage.”

“I got to the concert, they told me they weren’t sure if I’d go on stage, and then they just grabbed me. They knew where I was sitting and then just told me to play along and have fun.”

Ziggler said he told her how she looked like a total babe. Britney signed a shirt for him and kicked him off stage. Below are some photos:
