Dreamer Pulls a Rick Rude
Tommy Dreamer took to Twitter to comment on his appearance at this Friday’s WWE NXT live event, while at the same time his match – which was taped weeks ago – aired on Impact Wrestling.
I appeared on @IMPACTWRESTLING & @WWENXT last night. I’m just like Rick Rude minus the muscles & abs. What I’d like to have right now is..

For those that don’t get the reference, Rick Rude appeared at a live edition of Nitro back in 1997 on the same night that his final WWF Raw is War appearance aired, as it had been taped earlier. It was a bit more interesting back then, as Rude basically trashed the WWF and Degeneration X on Nitro, then an hour later was in the ring as a member of DX.
More GFW Matches Announced
Global Force Wrestling announced this weekend the lineup for their first ever live events on 6/12 and 6/13 in Jackson and Knoxville, TN. They have now announced the lineups for two more shows, on 6/20 in Jackson, MS and 6/22 in Bowling Green, KY.
Again, just a few quick notes. “Adonis'” is Chris Masters. PJ Black is the former Justin Gabriel. The Hot Shots are Cassidy Riley and Chase Stevens. In addition to the talent listed below, WWE Hall of Famer Scott Hall will be making appearances at both shows.
June 22nd
-Shelton Benjamin vs. Chris Adonis
-The Hot Shots vs. Andrew Everett & PJ Black
-Sonjay Dutt vs. Jimmy Rave vs. Jigsaw
-Chuck Taylor vs. Cliff Compton

The match card is basically the same, except that it will be the Young Bucks against Everett and PJ Black instead of Chase Stevens and Cassidy Riley.
