RassleBits: Poll, DK heel turn, Bustin on Dustin, Posse and Jackson Results

----POLL IS CLOSED – As of right now, no more votes will count. SEW winning with 58.14% over Memphis Wrestling @ 41.86%. I will really have no idea what this means at the box office, and it was not a huge win – less than 17%. The strange thing is that we had such a good turnout for voting on the awards, but only about .03% of all visitors in the last 2 days voted.

----For those that seen the first story about the DK finish turning heel, well it was incorrect. I corrected it. I also was told that DK did not try to kayfabe anyone that he was turning, but it was something they decided to do due to the fact that DK had no one to work. I don’t know anything for sure, but it looks like DK/Grind vs Flash/Brian Christopher, Stan Lee vs Dustin Starr and the return of “Picture Perfect” [Christian Jacobs/Jon Michael] in Ripley Saturday night.

----Bustin on Dustin: It seems Dustin Starr’s story about the WWE camp trip was not as well received over at the Trent Van Drisse Message board. It read like sour grapes to me. It is strange how people even in the business don’t even get that Starr’s site is a work!! He does it for fun and it gets him over no matter how you see it.

----“The Posse” [Simon Reed/’Lil Chris] auditioned for “Who Wants to Be A Superhero” on Sunday afternoon in St. Louis, MO. This show is reality show that airs on Sci-Fi Network. CLICK HERE to take a look at the web site. Good luck to the guys – hope they get picked!!

----It took me right at a week to receive these results, but it probably had to do with some of the my computer problems. But, I did want to share them with you. There was about 100 in the building, so close to a $700 gate…Shane Williams beat Bully Douglas; Doug Gilbert beat Chris O’Neal; Flash Flanagan beat Reggie B Fine; Kevin White beat Bill Dundee and in the Main Event: Jerry Lawler beat Derrick King…Apparently Bert Prentice was around and brought in a few of the Nashville guys…K-Hill and Tatt2 were backstage, but not used for the show…I was told the O’Neal vs Gilbert match was good…Next Jackson show is March 23, 2007
