If Kevin Kelly was Chris Nowinski, would he try to get into Molly's pants? Both Molly and Nowinski will be on the show today and they think that they will be separate conversations.

Kevin and Tom spoke about the marriage segment on Smackdown! and they both put it over as being great. Everybody was thinking about Billy and Chuck having a gay wedding and it was all a ruse. They pulled the wool over everybody's eyes including Stephanie McMahon and guess what? Chuck and Billy aren't really gay! It seemed as if Rico and Bischoff master minded this whole thing to get Rico over to RAW and double cross Stephanie McMahon on her own show.

After this week's TV, Kevin asked Tom what he thinks the new trend is? Tom hopes that it's not same sex weddings and HLA but to try to shock people.

Kevin asked Droz what he was thinking when he heard the words Hot Lesbian Action on RAW? Droz thought they were going over the top last week with the pillow fight and then he heard HLA. He had Rosie and Jamal in his mind and those girls got beat down. Wrestling is definitely getting a lot racier than he ever expected it go but with anything, you have to raise the bar and continue to raise it. It was definitely a controversial week in wrestling.

Droz enjoyed it all but it's definitely pushing the bar with kids watching and everything but then again, it's up to the parents to filter out what their kids can and cannot watch.

Back to RAW, Kevin likes where they're going with Bubba Ray Dudley. It seems as if he's come into his own now and he is one of the big stand up guys on RAW and was one of the first to criticize the way Triple H garnered the Championship. Droz is really looking forward to seeing Bubba win the title one day.

Kevin asked Tom for his thoughts on RVD and his development with this company. Is it time for him to go to the next level? Tom said that he likes the progress RVD has made in this company. He is still the Intercontinental Champion but this could be the time for break out stars. Rob Van Dam has the chance to become the Champion taking on Triple H and he has a big target on his back but so does Triple H. RVD is going to come out of this one looking good no matter what happens.

They wrapped it up with Droz and you can read his column each and every week on WWE.com.

Tom asked Tazz how he feels, being that close to the wedding? Tazz said it was the greatest angle he's ever seen in his career... it was phenomenal. Eric Bischoff, whether you love him or hate him, he did a phenomenal job and it was great stuff put together by the writing crew.

Kevin said that no one saw Bischoff backstage and all the talent was just as shocked as everyone watching at home. (Doesn't Kevin Kelly know that Smackdown! is taped and people read the spoilers?) Tazz said Billy and Chuck got a big reaction backstage and the backstage workers are the best critics and the talent thought it was off the charts.

Tazz talked about the storyline and how Rosie and Jamal were a big part of it. They have a big future ahead of them and he wishes they were a part of Smackdown!.

They talked about Unforgiven and then they wrapped it up with Tazz and he'll be back on the show next week.

Mike said that RVD has maximum potential to win the World Title at Unforgiven. His time has come... Kevin asked the question, is he over ripe? Has too much time gone? Mike said that Rob Van Dam has been here since Summer Slam last year and Kevin asked Mike if he thinks Triple H is much better than Rob Van Dam? Kevin doesn't know if RVD is as good as Triple H and he has to see him beat Triple H to see if he's at that level? Mike said that Triple H is the better wrestler but it's RVD's turn to win the title.

Kevin asked Mike if he was a fan of HLA this week? Mike said yes but unfortunately TNN won't allow any of that. Mike asked about the Anthology CD and Kevin didn't have any information on that, but they'll have information on WWE.com on that in the near future.

Bradshaw tore his bicep this week and Tom told Bradshaw that Tazz sent out his wishes to Bradshaw and Bradshaw knocked Tazz for being short. Kevin then asked Bradshaw at what point during the match did his injury happy? Bradshaw said it was about 3/4ths of the way through. His hand got caught on the rope and the apron and he couldn't get his hand out and he felt something pop. He thought his elbow dislocated but it was still in place and then he found out it was his bicep. Kevin said it's amazing, because watching the match and seeing his run in later on, he would have never known.

 

How much pain was he in when it happened? Bradshaw said the pain was very strong and after the run in, the bicep was torn in two and it rolled up to the shoulder. That was a lot of pain and as much pain he's been through in a long time.

They wrapped it up with Bradshaw and they'll have him on the show again in the future. Bradshaw will be back bigger than ever when he returns but right now, he's about as useless as Tazz in a basketball game.

Chris is calling from St. Louis and Tom asked him if he's in Molly's hotel? Chris said as far as Tom is concerned, he's not.

They talked about his association with William Regal and Chris said that he's had the best tutor he can imagine as of late in William Regal.

Kevin asked Chris if the wrestlers are being too hard on him on the road with all the bumps and bruises he's been getting? Chris said that the wrestlers tell him that it's normal and then Kevin and Tom asked Chris if he's been ribbed? Chris said he had his bag pad locked a couple times, but nothing major.

Chris Nowinski competed in Tough Enough and lost. Maven came in and made an impact, but now Maven is injured and Chris has picked up where Maven left off and made a mark of his own. Any jealousy between he and Maven? Chris said he was jealous. He went in to win but he didn't win. Chris was glad Maven was successful because it paved the way for the rest of them to get a good shot in their careers.

Kevin asked Chris if there was anything he would change in the show, what would it be? Chris said he thinks it would be great if the contestants could perform in front of crowds. Chris said he did a lot of his learning on the Indies in front of fans.

After losing, what did he do immediately after the show? Did he contemplate quitting? Chris said he got in the car and on the ride home, he was calling bookers for Indy shows to get booked over the weekend. Chris was well in debt, so he had to go back to his job full time but he continued in wrestling.

Kevin asked Chris if he keeps in touch with his buddy Darryl? Chris said all the time, sarcastically. When he saw Darryl at the reunion, Darryl said that was some screwed up stuff Chris said about Darryl on the show. It's strange that he's still living in the past...

They went to a caller for Chris Nowinski and the caller asked about Josh. Chris said that they put their differences behind them and word on the street is that Josh is somewhere in Stamford, Connecticut. Kevin said that he sees him around every once in a while.

Tom said that during Tough Enough, Chris was there for business... to win. Now that he's in the WWE and sees the way the crew is, has he settled into that lifestyle or does he see himself as a loner? Chris said the biggest change of all is that the people you're with is like your family for 4-5 days of the week. You can have a better life here if you get along with everyone. With Tough Enough, he knew that there was a bunch of slackers involved so he didn't mind being 'all business' with them. Not everyone in the first Tough Enough had 'heart' to make it to the WWE.

Kevin asked Chris how his family life has changed since he's been on wrestling? Chris said that his family has been about the same but his extended family knows him better by seeing him on TV and with all the travel he's been doing, he's been able to see more of his family members.

The final question; Yale vs. Harvard. Kevin asked if Yale is going to win and Chris said it's definitely not Yale's year. Harvard 122... Yale -3.

Kevin wished Chris the best of luck and they wrapped it up with Christopher Nowinski.

If Kevin and Tom could pick a brand, what would it be? RAW or Smackdown!? Tom said that he would go with RAW because he likes the edginess of Eric Bischoff. Kevin said he would have to go with Smackdown! at this point. Smackdown! has been the better program and the RAW general manager made Smackdown! a better show this week.

Molly said it's been fun being Champion and she plans on keeping the belt longer than Moolah! As a kid, she wasn't a fan of women's wrestling because there wasn't much for her to watch as a kid. Most of her wrestling idols were guys like Steamboat, Hacksaw Jim Duggan, the Warrior and Hulk Hogan.

When Molly came to WWE, she brought some strength to the women's division as said by Tom Prichard. Tom said that Molly brings out the best in who she's in the ring with and Molly thanked him.

 

Kevin asked Molly how fulfilling is it for her to bring out the best in someone like Trish Stratus? Molly said that when she first locked up with Trish, she could tell that she was an amazing athlete. She felt that Trish probably had the skills before but never had the opportunity to show them with a decent storyline.

Tom asked Molly what changes she would make in the women's division if she had the choice? Molly would hire more girls. A lot of the WWE's girls are hurt, but there are a lot of girls on the Indy scene that could show their stuff in the WWE. Molly would love to see the women's division with a lot more competitors. Did Molly design her arm drag after Ricky Steamboat? Molly said she watched Savage/Steamboat probably 30 times and then she practiced the arm drag motion on the bed and over the years, she's modified it and there are a few wrestlers that she tries to pick up tips from.

An email asked Molly what she thinks of her hair now and did the WWE approach her about the change? Molly said part of the decision was that the bleach she was using made her hair like straw so she had to do something to make her hair healthier. She had to cut it and also it's easier to get the fans to boo you if you're not a hot looking blonde.

They went to a caller for Molly and the caller thanked them for putting on a good show. It makes the WWE seem down to earth. The caller then congratulated Molly on all her accomplishments and it's great to see her in the ring. Are the rumors of her being a Christian true? Molly said the rumors are true, she is a born again Christian.

Kevin asked Molly how difficult is it to stick to her beliefs, being on the road with her travel schedule? Molly said she has a few Christian friends on the road. Charles Robinson is a strong Christian and he helps to keep Molly in line. In any line of work, it's always a challenge to continue to grow on your faith but it takes a little work and determination and with the help of God, anything is possible.

An email asked Molly what she does to stay in such great shape with such a busy schedule? Molly said she tries to work out in the afternoon and she tries not to eat too much junk food and stay active and healthy.

Kevin asked Molly how everything is physically with her? Molly said it's funny he asks. She wrestles five days a week and she goes to Smackdown!. Even when she's not on TV, she gets in the ring. She hasn't sustained any major injuries but she did whack her arm on the towel rack and it hurt for two days.

Tom asked Molly how she likes doing what she's doing with Nowinski? Molly said that storyline has been a very interesting challenge. She doesn't know exactly where it's leading or what's happening with that but behind the scenes, Nowinski is a very nice person and she wouldn't mind working with him in the future.

Kevin asked Molly what she thought of the HLA business on Monday? Molly said it upset her greatly that Bubba and Spike go out there and kill themselves in a match and the commentators were talking about HLA. As a wrestler, that's the most disturbing thing, to not be appreciated for getting killed out there. The other thing that upset her is that the actual turn of events is when you see half naked girls getting beat up by men, it was sickening for her to watch. It upset her. When one of the girls was above Rosie's head and she looked naked and it was a little too much for Molly and she thought it was awful.

And onto Billy and Chuck? Molly said she was at Smackdown! watching it on Tuesday. She thought it was very well done and she had no idea Eric Bischoff was dressed up in that costume. All day, she was wondering where they found that actor. It was a great publicity stunt and it was well done.

Kevin brought up the Babe of the Year and the voting is very close with Victoria and Molly as they are first round opponents. Molly thought Victoria was ready to be a Superstar on their show two years ago. She was surprised that they waited so long to bring her in. Not only is she attractive, but she can do some high flying crazy stuff and can do some power moves and is attractive. Molly is looking forward to working with her more.

On the subject of OVW, Molly said she's not sure who's down there but in developmental, you do a lot of drills and learn how to do the moves but as far as doing a whole match, she's not sure how much match experience they're having and they have to have girls better than themselves working with them down there. Jackie Gayda and Linda Miles are both great athletes and have great attitudes and if they do well, they'll be back in no time.

Kevin asked Molly if she would rather see longer women's matches on TV? Molly said that each girl should be able to do what they are best at doing. If there are some girls who would rather do hardcore or showbiz matches, then that's what they should be doing.

They wrapped it up with Molly and Kevin congratulated Molly on her new home and they look forward to seeing her this coming Monday on RAW.

First, Jessica hit on Matt Duda who was sporting new blonde hair, courtesy of Maxim Hair Color for Men. They asked Jessica what she thought of HLA on RAW? Jessica said whatever floats your boat... it's awesome.

Kevin Kelly said that Dr. Tom should get back in the ring. The writers should find something for him and Tom had nothing to debate on that one as he agreed.

They are trying to get Stephanie McMahon on the show next week.
