Kris Gibson sent this in: Sad, I know, but after reading your posting about Umaga being 19th on search list at Yahoo, I thought I hunt around to see if I could find a Samoan definition of “Umaga”. From this link, www.nzetc.org/tm/scholarly/tei-PraDict-c3-5.html, about 2/3 down the page are these two definitions.” â<80>~Umaga, s. the tattooing in the lower part of the belly. Umaga, a. flourishing. Ia umaga la tatou galeuga.” I was disappointed that it didn’t mean shriveled up monkey…just kidding.
There is heat on Daniel Rodimer. If you’ll recall, the plan was to call him up in January and align him with Edge and Orton as a main eventer. This was a Stephanie call. She’s similar to her dad when it comes to evaluating talent; she sees a tall guy with a good body and determines that he can be a big star. However, those who have seen him in OVW say it will be years before he’s ready to be called up because his wrestling skills aren’t too good. Although, he’s only been wrestling since August. Stephanie immediately halted Rodimer’s push after Vince’s reaction to the creative team telling him that Vladimir Kozlov was not ready. Anyways, Rodimer is still being flown to all of WWE’s television tapings. Last week, a bunch of guys were backstage and looked over at the massage table, and there was Rodimer, who isn’t even working on the shows, getting a massage. Suffice it to say, that didn’t please a number of wrestlers.
