Sakamoto Expected to Wrestle Soon, John Laurinaitis Removed, More

Posted on 06.21.12 | Category: WWE News

- WWE Tag Team Champions Kofi Kingston and R-Truth will be appearing at Glenbrook Dodge in Fort Wayne, Indiana on June 25th at 11am.

- A new idea from Vince McMahon is to have the RAW announcers do sound effects to make it seem like they are trying to hold back laughter during what are supposed to be comedy segments.

- WWE has removed John Laurinaitis from their roster page.

- Sakamoto is expected to start wrestling within the next few months. His association with Tensai is likely over after Tensai beat him down on RAW two weeks ago. The beatdown was done as part of Tensai being re-packaged. Sakamoto was originally trained by former WWE star Taka Michinoku at his Kaientai Dojo school in Japan. Sakamoto debuted back in 2003 and was signed by WWE in 2011.

    Jesus Christ, Vince needs to go.

    Nice to know that inane Michael Cole giggling I’ve been hearing recently was all his idea.

    No wonder WWE’s business is going down the crapper…

    Looks like a double whammy of suck is coming our way. Non Stop giggling from Michael Cole and The King while “The Hip Hop Ninja” Tensai dances with Sakamoto after their match.

        LOL. What am I talking to myself now?

    That ‘laughing announcers’ idea is terrible and I really hope they don’t do it. They must assume people are really stupid if they think they have to tell us when to laugh at something. I always thought that ‘laugh tracks’ on a sitcom were a bad idea and with RAW being a live show this sounds even more horrible.

    ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS SO NOW LAUGHTER HAS TO BE ARTIFICIAL IT WAS GREAT HEARING J.R AND KING LAUGH DURING WHAT WAS ACTUALLY FUNNY SEGMENTS NOT WHAT ARE “SUPPOSED” TO BE FUNNY SEGMENTS

  • Lone Wolf

    Is Vince watching Raw & especially Smackdown where they been doing that….he just wants to take credit for it.

  • The Miz

    tensai will start to have a jobber role..

  • TRazor

    Yes, but these sound effects sound like queefy farts.
