Dustin Starr/Seth Knight Story Continues.....

----I received an e-mail from someone else that had their views of the Dustin Starr/Seth Knight fight from TLCW Saturday night. The source wrote, “I want to make an eyewitness comment on the Starr/Knight situation. Dustin didn't come out looking like a bully, he came out looking like a pussy, and so did Seth... Dustin was acting like he always does, cocky and arrogant, that is just who he is, yes he was dogging Seth, but no worse than anyone else ever has. Dustin did jump on Seth as soon as he hit the dressing room after his match, it was not blocked, but it amounted to the same thing as a sucker punch/blind siding, which in my eyes made him a pussy. On top of that, all he did was forearm him in the back, Seth never even attempted to defend himself, as they were rolling around like 2 little girls, they came toward Bishop and Tasha Simone, causing her to yell at them to stay away from her, and then they knocked Bishop's burger out of his hand, at which point he snatched Dustin in a rear naked choke. Big bad Dustin didn't not even attempt to bow up on Bishop, who had Dustin's head looking like a balloon about to pop, and this was really the highlight of the whole thing. The "fight" if you want to call it that, was a big joke, my kids could fight better than that, some of the guys were even saying it looked like a work, it was sooo bad!!!”

“And you might want to add this as well: Everyone squirts everyone else with water in the dressing room, but that is no reason to spit on anyone. If Dustin had hit Seth the minute he spit on him, I would not feel the way I do about his actions, but having to ask if you should beat someone's ass, or having to think about it, after them spitting on you, shows a lack of balls if you ask me.”

----Dustin Starr has his version of the story on his site. I have just a few more things to say about it. At first I thought it was coming off as Starr being a bully, but in reality, as the source said above, the water squirting thing is something that everyone does around here. Maybe Starr should not have been ribbing Knight, but in the end Knight should not have spit on Starr. Derrick King as the booker really needs to get a hold of this situation before something bad happens.

----And, finally, to answer the question that every worker wants to know?? Is this a work? In a conversation with a TLCW source [before any of this started], I was told that they were trying to book something big for the January 6, 2007 on the lines of a worked shoot. I am almost certain they were going in another direction with that involving an incident that took place earlier this year with the “Posse.” If I am predicting the direction of TLCW right [and this is just my thoughts], Stan Lee will probably be the next champion followed by Starr feuding with him over the belt. If it is a work and not a shoot, then that is one of the reasons you probably will never see Knight or Starr with a contract. Actually the whole thing may be the reason neither succeed, just drop the childish bullshit guys and get back to work. TLCW has a good thing going and it needs everyone to succeed – whether you are a Starr or Knight mark both guys bring something to the show.
