For the first time is nearly.....um.....15 years on WLMT-TV in Memphis, Wrestling in Memphis made its historic return thanks to the United Wrestling Network known more prominently for its longtime Championship wrestling From Hollywood show as well as others. The owner to that show: Dustin Starr. He's a bodybuilder, MC for the Memphis Grizzlies, and real life tag team partner to his wife Maria. He too was a wrestler until he decided to play commentator along with her. Besides that, you get to see some people who have been in the indies or on TV and some newer ones you might see in the Bluff City for a long time. Not only Dustin & Maria have been on this network for 4 years, but if you go back a bit, they had their own show on Saturday mornings called CW 30 Starrs and once filled in on a sister station's morning lifestyle show. But back to this program. It all started with D&M in the TV station giving you matches from the UWN umbrella but they decided to move it somewhere to a banquet hall right near a mall I used to go to all the time. Recently, they created the new and improved Wrestlecenter. Yes, a Wrestlecenter. That's where all the action will take place on May 22nd. You can also train to be a professional wrestler. Watch this.






That's legendary wrestler King Cobra with a call to let you become the next Sting, Lex Luger or Max Moon. And Yes, Dustin & Maria are trainers and coaches. There's even birthday parties too. Yes, birthday parties. There's even a store and much much more. How are you going to do it? Get to this:

How do I get you alone......in canada?



The HISTORY(R) Channel's popular nonfiction survival series "Alone" returns for season eight on Thursday, June 3 at 9:30PM ET/PT. This season, ten contestants fight to survive in the Canadian wilderness on the shores of Chilko Lake, British Columbia - a location with one of the densest grizzly bear populations on earth. Survivalists are dropped off in undisclosed, remote locations and equipped with just ten survival tools, and enough camera gear to self-document their experiences. The survivalist who endures the longest, facing total isolation, punishing weather, and deadly predators, will win the $500,000 grand prize. No camera crews. No gimmicks. "Alone" is the ultimate test of human will.

"'Alone' has always been a hit series for The HISTORY Channel, but this past year it has particularly resonated with audiences now-more-than-ever as we've watched survivalists endure total isolation through their ingenuity and mental willpower," said Eli Lehrer, Executive Vice President and Head of Programming for The HISTORY Channel. "This new season will continue to authentically feature the grit of human endurance and challenge viewers to look at the outdoors - and their own backyards - a bit differently."

Season eight of "Alone" sets the stakes higher than ever before in the most dangerous location yet. Survivalists must build their own shelters, forage their own food, and overcome numerous obstacles and dangerous predators in hopes of being the last person standing. Never before have contestants come into such frequent contact with the fierce and territorial grizzly bear, until now.

The brawl is back as culinary icons and acclaimed Food Network hosts Bobby Flay and Michael Symon face-off for a rematch on a new season of BBQ Brawl, premiering with a special 90-minute episode, Monday, June 14th at 9pm ET/PT on Food Network. However, a new twist is in store for Michael and Bobby as they are joined by a third coach who knows a thing or two about grilling, with Food Network's Eddie Jackson ready to take the competition to a whole new level; through 10 episodes, Bobby, Michael and Eddie mentor and coach 12 talented and buzzworthy barbecue stars from around the country for ultimate bragging rights. Set at the famed Star Hill Ranch in Austin, Texas, the competitors are broken into three teams as they are challenged in each episode with two rounds of barbecue battles that test their individual skills along with how well they work together as a team. With the captains inspiring their teams every step of the way, a panel of judges featuring barbecue legend Rodney Scott, famed chef Brooke Williamson, and lifestyle personality Carson Kressley, decide which team was least successful each episode, with the competitor deemed the weakest link eliminated. The captains must do everything in their power to keep their team members in the game - including diving into the action themselves - but in the end, only one chef will win the coveted title of "Master of Cue" and appear across Food Network's digital platforms to become its official BBQ expert for the year, giving tips and tricks to work a grill no matter your skill level.

"Bobby Flay, Michael Symon and Eddie Jackson are Food Network stars with experience in culinary competitions at the highest level, but they have their work cut out for them as they mentor these talented competitors through a fast-paced and highly intense BBQ showdown," said Courtney White, President, Food Network. "The stakes couldn't be higher as the captains guide their teams to the finish line to earn bragging rights over each other."

Bobby Flay, Michael Symon and Eddie Jackson get their teams ready as they select their barbecue standouts. Nothing is off limits in hopes of avoiding elimination, with challenges that include the teams exploring the sports side of barbecue, bringing friends and family together around the grill to fire up their team spirit and taste buds. An unexpected twist is in store for the teams in another episode, as fishing comes into play to prove the competitors can handle some delicate seafood just as well as meat. And the competitors put everything on the line heading into the double-episode finale on Monday, August 9th at 9pm ET/PT, with the remaining team members joining forces with their captains to impress the judges and earn a spot to compete in the ultimate barbecue gauntlet - a super-sized all-day competition filled with surprises that will have one captain and competitor celebrating as BBQ champion.

Fans can check out Food Network's Facebook, Instagram and Twitter platforms for exclusive barbecue how-tos with Bobby, Michael and Eddie, and to get the captains' best cookout recipes. Join the conversation all season using #BBQBrawl.

Looks like the circle is broken.......


After three popular seasons of the reality series with a virtual twist, Channel 4 has announced it will not be renewing The Circle, choosing instead to make space for creative new ideas.

In a statement, a Channel 4 spokesperson told RadioTimes.com, “The Circle has been a huge hit for young audiences and has grown successively over three seasons on Channel 4, consistently outperforming slot averages. We’re incredibly proud to have worked with Studio Lambert North and Motion Content Group to invest in such an innovative show and to have given it a springboard for its international format success.

“In much the same way as when we originally commissioned The Circle, Channel 4 has a responsibility to continually look at how we reinvent and create space for new ideas, and so we have decided not to commission the show for a fourth season. We’d like to thank Studio Lambert, Motion and all those involved for The Circle’s huge success over the last three series.”

A spokesperson for Studio Lambert confirmed they are “in talks with Netflix” about the future of the series, saying, “The second season of The Circle US is doing very well on Netflix and we are in talks with Netflix about the future of the show in both America and in the UK.

“We are grateful to Channel 4 for all they did to help launch this innovative and entertaining format.”

Hosted by Emma Willis, the game show sees contestants communicate only via a social media platform. Not meeting face-to-face, they can play as anyone they wish – “anyone can be anyone in The Circle”.

This year also saw the first ever Celebrity Circle for Stand Up to Cancer, with rapper Lady Leshurr winning the series after catfishing as Big Narstie.

The American version of the reality show, The Circle USA, airs on Netflix

Time for a Mistplay Game Break. Here's an Idiotest for your brain.....



 



Hopefully that could help as we give you a Pandora Song Break as we continue the class of 2011 and  the Queen Bey.



 

 And the best thing about this Mistplay Game break is the answer. If you were paying attention, it said bicycle. Well, it's actually a tricycle and if you said 5, which counts as a clown fish, then you just tripped and fell on the floor. The answer: 




And if all 4 rode tandem, it would be a different story.

Love Triangle. The onle show game show veteran JD Roth did for GSN. It took place in the past, present and future. Here is why.



Love Triangle features civilians caught in a real-life "love triangle",[1] featuring a dater and two suitors, with the suitors often having vastly different lifestyles and personalities. The episode begins by discussing secrets of each of the suitors' past. The suitors then take a personality test to see how compatible they are with the dater, especially in the subjects of lifestyle, money, and sex. The dater then asks the suitors questions which they must answer while hooked up to a lie detector, nicknamed the "Trustbuster". The dater is shown what the future will hold with each of the suitors, including their financial situation and what their child might look like, before deciding whom to keep and whom to let go. The dater and the suitor who was chosen win a vacation as a grand prize.


Guess Wendy had to go back to her talk show after 1 lonely season beacuse it didn't have enough game for one dating program to pick who to dump and keep. Good job GSN for dumping it.
