WWE Wrestlers Are Great Bloggers

Reason #8162 why we love the Internet: we get to read what exactly our sporting heroes think; their words unfiltered by pesky opinionated journalists. That’s right, we’re talking about personal blogs and myspace accounts. Today we’ve been blessed with personal gems from two of www.jabandgrabble.com’s favorite WWE wrestlers: Kofi Kingston and Matt Hardy. The posts talk about their current adventures on the WWE’s tour of Oceania.

Kofi Kingston’s blog entry on wwe.com tells us about the warm greeting he and the WWE superstars received upon landing in New Zealand and his interaction with Kiwi (see picture) pro wrestling legends Bushwacker Butch and Tony Garea. His tales of performance despite extreme jet lag make you realize how ragged WWE wrestlers’ schedules really are.

Matt Hardy also blogs on his myspace page, www.myspace.com/theonlymatthardy, about the difficulties of finding sleep after pan-Pacific travel. He also reveals another gem: “Tonight (at the Christchurch, NZ show), myself, Batista, and the Undertaker beat Edge, MVP, and Mark Henry in the main event-yeah boy!”

That’s right. The Undertaker WWE-ban must not include New Zealand! This is good news for WWE fans everywhere and a sign that The Undertaker’s removal might not be as permanent as we feared.
