WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus to Be Honored by Cauliflower Alley Club
TRISH STRATUS has been named the 2016 “Iron” Mike Mazurki Award winner! The women’s wrestling icon becomes first female ever to win this award.
Write-up courtesy of CAC Board Member Ron Hutchison:
“On behalf of the Cauliflower Alley Club, it’s Board and Executive Board members, it is with great pride and respect that I am very pleased to announce that TRISH STRATUS has been unanimously named the recipient of the 2016 “Iron” Mike Mazurki Award!
It is the very first time in the prestigious 51 year history of the club that the “Iron” Mike Award has been presented to a woman. With women now more than ever taking to the forefront and, in many cases, leading the way in all sorts of endeavors be it politics, sports, science, entertainment and just about anything else you can name it’s fitting that Trish becomes the CAC’s first ever female “Iron” Mike award winner as Trish had shot to the forefront of the women’s professional wrestling industry and, in the process, made wrestling history in very short order since her year 2000 debut.
As well as being named the World Wrestling Federation’s Diva of the Decade, this Canadian bombshell went on to win the organization’s Hardcore Championship and held the WWE Women’s Wrestling Championship a record 7 times and in doing so cemented her legacy in the World Wrestling Entertainment Hall of Fame.
As a wrestler, fitness model, fitness guru, actress and television personality Trish’s talent, work ethic and beauty is known worldwide. She has graced the cover of no less than an astounding 100 magazines and is strongly committed to giving back to the community. She is passionate about her charity work and using her celebrity to benefit others.
As the recipient of the 2016 Iron Mike Award Trish makes history, yet again! At the 2016 CAC gathering in Las Vegas, reunion goers will see what I have been fortunate enough to bear witness to for a very long time; you’d have to search long and hard to find anybody, male or female, as passionate, as focused, as endearing, as hard-working or as deserving as TRISH STRATUS.”
Beth Phoenix, a 2015 honoree of the CAC, sends along her congratulations as well:
“Trish set the bar for a generation of young women wanting to be more than garnish for the men. She became an attraction in the business and remained the classy savvy business woman that she always has been. Trish helped many up and comers find their place including myself. She deserves this honor and I am thrilled that Trish is being recognized by the CAC.”
The Cauliflower Alley Club congratulates Trish Stratus on her historical CAC honor and welcomes her into “the ring of friendship!

CAC honor?
But congrats to her. One of my all time favorite female wrestlers.

MVP On Why Batista Changed His Match Finish, Vince McMahon Not Believing Batista Would Leave, More - WrestlingInc.com
On episode 61 of Sam Roberts' Wrestling Podcast, MVP talked about his friendship with Batista and Batista leaving WWE for Hollywood.
According to MVP, Batista always looked out for him and has been like a big brother to him. During the podcast, MVP told a story about Batista getting the finish of a match changed during their time together in WWE, so MVP wouldn't have to lose three weeks in a row.
"We had been doing a television feud. It wasn't a pay-per-view feud, but, every week, he and I were going through something, wrestling, and he had beaten me, like, two weeks in a row on TV. And the finish that day was he was going to beat me again. And I know my role. I'm a heel! He's the money guy. He's a star. That's what I'm there for. I have no problem with that. Dave had a problem with it because he said, 'why am I beating you again? This does nothing for you. This does nothing for me. This is pointless.' His exact words [were], 'you're a f--king guy we can do something with. Why am I beating you again?'. This is what Dave said. I said, 'f--k it, Dave. I'm working in the main event against you. I'm cool. That's fine. I'm making that main event money. I'm getting the rub.' He goes, 'no, f--k that. It's bulls--t. Lets go talk to Vince [McMahon].'" MVP continued, "Dave literally took me in to Vince and said, 'Vince, it doesn't make sense.' That doesn't happen very often in the world of professional wrestling. There aren't that many guys that think that selflessly and see the picture in that way, so that's the kind of guy he is."
MVP, Batista, and McMahon settled on a finish where MVP would win by count out and Batista would still look strong in defeat.
"We came up with a finish where we'd fight outside the ring, he'd be kicking my ass outside the ring, and I'd be running away from him during the count, so as I dive into the ring, I win by count out. And I kind of slid out [of] the backside of the ring and I was still scared and I'm showing, 'oh s--t' and [the announcer says], 'and the winner, by count out, MVP!' and I get my swagger back and I was like, 'yeah, that's right! That's right! I won!' And that was the finish that we came up with. Dave did that."
MVP said that McMahon never thought Batista would walk away from WWE money to try his hand at acting.
"With [Batista's] movie career, I remember the day he left and it was crazy because Muriel, the security guard, she walked him out and he was telling me, he goes, 'Vince doesn't think I'm leaving. He thinks I'm bulls--tting him. He doesn't think I'm serious.'" MVP added, "[Batista] literally walked away from millions of dollars a year on the chance that he'd make it in Hollywood [and McMahon was saying,] 'he's not going to walk away from all this money.'"

During a recent interview with the Allegedly with Matt Weiss and Theo Von podcast, The Miz says Vince McMahon originally wanted him to be "the Ryan Seacrest of WWE". He also gave some advice for aspiring WWE Superstars. You can check out some highlights below:

On advice for aspiring WWE Superstars: “So is there an art to trash talk? If kids want to become a WWE Superstar, I say start cutting promos in the mirror. We did a class. Like Vince did a class for, like, seven of us. We’d have to go in there and we’d cut promos. Vince would go, ‘alright, cut a promo on armbar. Alright?’ ‘Armbar? Okay!’ And he would just say a word and we’d have to do it, so I’d practice that while I’m in traffic in L.A. Like, stop sign. Cut a promo on a stop sign.”
On wrestlers having accidents in the ring and Big Show’s flatulence: “A lot of gas. Sometimes there’s some gas and you wonder if the audience can smell it. And you’re breathing heavy, like, you’re tasting it. It’s not very fun. Big Show [is the gassiest WWE Superstar]. He is 500 pounds. He’s seven-foot tall. The best running gag that he has is like, he’ll get in an elevator and once he’s leaving the elevator and the door’s closing, he’ll just let it rip and walk out.”
On Vince McMahon’s original vision for him: “I remember being in there with Vince McMahonand Vince was like, ‘we’re going to have you kind of be like the Ryan Seacrest of WWE’ and I went, ‘what? No, I want to be, like, the big star. Like, when I was a kid, The Ultimate Warrior was the man. Like, let me be him, not the host.’ But then, I was like, ‘well, they’ll give me the mic. As long as I have the mic, I know I can get this crowd to either boo me or cheer me.’ So the first thing that comes out, I have to host this Diva Search where I have to memorize a number and I wrote the number on my wrist because it was a hard number to remember. It was like seven [digits]. It wasn’t like a 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. No, it was like a number, so I totally forgot it. As I was looking on my wrist, you could see me looking on my wrist and the sweat kind of made it go off, so I totally ruined, basically, that whole competition. It was bad, so I was completely worried I was going to get fired. I went backstage and I was like, ‘I am so sorry’ [and McMahon] was like, ‘oh, it happens, blah, blah, blah’ and to his credit, he kept allowing me to host that show and as time progressed, I kept getting better and better.”

Hasn't Miz basically become the Ryan Seacrest of WWE now?
I'm legit surprised that Vince even knew who Ryan Seacrest was.
I thought he'd be still thinking that dikk Clark was still alive.
