Police are investigating boxing champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. after a witness saw his Rolls Royce leaving the scene of a shooting last night in Las Vegas.

The shooting occurred at the Crystal Palace Skating Center. The Associated Press reports that according to Lt. Patrick Charoen, police obtained a warrant to search Mayweather's Rolls Royce after a witness spotted it leaving the skating center right after the shooting. Lt. Charoen says no one was hurt in the shooting, but a vehicle was hit with several bullets. Mayweather isn't named as a suspect, as witnesses only identified his vehicle.

TMZ.com spoke to Floyd Mayweather Sr. on Monday, who recalled a conversation he had with his son earlier today. According to Floyd Sr., Floyd Jr. claims police "ransacked" his home looking for a gun but didn't find anything. Floyd Jr. said he takes his kids to that skating rink often on Sundays and confirmed that police were talking to him because his car was seen there at the time of the shooting.

Mayweather is scheduled to guest host tonight's episode of Monday Night Raw and is unknown if he will be there or not because of this.

*sits and cries* OOOOOOOOooohhh!!! My grampa just downloaded SummerSlam, and...and....*sniffle*...

You know who I love the most.

BAAAWWWW!
I can't believe that snot nosed Punk beat Jeff! Oh well. At least the Undertaker rose again...*heh heh*...and destroyed Punk. Me thinks something fucking amazing is gonna happen. And, I really thought Cena was gonna win the title match...es. Also:

THOSE DAMN DX!!

Okay, I guess you guys don't like to see me bitch about how Jeff shoulda won, and I gotta go to bed soon(second day of school), so bye. *sigh* I'm gonna, you know, try again.

*leap*

I enjoyed that opening far more than I should have.

Tonights raw? It was ok, nothing to special. I did like it and am looking forward to DX and Vince vs. the legacy.

Well, Jeff has one show left, and a rematch clause to invoke. So he could try to beat Punk on Smackdown! fail miserably, and then that'll lead to more in the Punk vs. Taker situation. Straight Edge means he's better then Jeff Hardy!

Also yet another round of Cena vs. Orton? *zzzzzzzzzzzz*. So much for anything fresh happening on RAW yes?

The opener was pretty funny up until dick johnson came out. Why that dude does that crap I'll never know...it really makes the creative team look so very stupid when it's members act like that. It also points out I think the fundamental problem with a lot of the use of DX anymore: It really is just a gag for older fans and Hunter and Shawn to just have party hour and if you understand the jokes you'll laugh and if you don't, you're in the dust. I hope they continue the idea of Legacy being a threat tonight and have them just flat out wreck Vince or something and don't get beat or let DX break them.

I'll talk more about RAW tomorrow; too tired.

I didn't expect to. That's the thing about RAW these days. It's like watching a bad sports team: You know they're most likely going to lose but you're hoping tonight is one of those nights they'll pull one out.

Well, that was bad. The opening segment was awful: Just a masturbatory birthday segment, which went way too long. I'd like to say it was predictable, but if I'm honest, I predicted Mae Young coming out of the cake. And what's with Vince doing the DX lines? What is this, D-Corporation-X? Last I heard, DX were against authority, and they'd embarrassed Vince countless times before.

The Mayweather segment was so off too. He obviously makes a much, much, better heel. Why not swerve us and have him side with Show? Sure, it wouldn't make much sense, but nothing on Raw does, and it could maybe have made the segment slightly better.

But hey, why not let MVP choose a partner for tonight, and if they win, they get a title shot at Breaking Point. Hey, let's have that match tonight! What? That doesn't make any God damn sense. Floyd Mayweather sucks on the mic.

I didn't mind the opening too much. I totally saw "greased up fat guy" in the cake coming a mile away. I had wanted Legacy to get some good offense in but I guess Vince had to get a pinfall victory on his birthday. Hey I can understand wanting to have fun on your birthday but not at the expense of others... oh well.

As far as the matches go, Miz vs. Santino was fun and the tag match between Big Show/jericho vs. MVP/Mark Henry wasn't bad either.

Not the best show they've done but it was at least somewhat watchable.

according to sources, people backstage say that abraham washington is not well liked backstage, and also saying that his on-screen character seems to match with his real life persona very well, apparently he's got a bit of an ego..

honestly.. it doesn't really come to a shock for me...

I know you're all speaking ill of RAW's opening, but hell, it's Vince's b-day - he has an excuse to screw things up this time. :P

MVP & Mark Henry...........this would be great for the both of them - y'know, two guys who'd benefit more from the UTT than the current holders? Which means they won't win them, sadly........... >:( But I can still hope.

Jericho's become pathetic. A great wrestler doesn't need to be made to look like a pathetic woos.

Is anyone else actually happy that Chavo said "Fuck it; I'm sick of this shit!"? Sorry, Horny, but I'd rather see him & Bourne feud.

Me, too, actually. Would've been funnier - seriously, enough with the greased fat dude. >_<

Family relation trumps authority, and they still had fun at Vince's expense beforehand.

Yeah, he fucked that one up......

He owns the company, he always has the excuse to fuck it up as bad as he wants. It doesn't mean he should have an hour long birthday segment to start of his flagship show. It was unfunny throughout, boring throughout, and had nothing to do with anything relevant in the WWE (other than the relatively minuscule Legacy attack part at the end).

I'd say Vince has lost it. He's lost touch of what made his company so great, and now all he cares about is his own enjoyment, rather than the fans', or making his top show a two hour advert for irrelevant, annoying "celebrities".

One thing I don't understand is why they make Jericho do so bad against Mark Henry. I understand t hat they might be trying to build Henry up some, but come on, Jericho gets dominated. I don't even like Jericho and I know he deserves better than that.

HBH, welcome to the party the rest of us have known of forever. Everything Vince does is done for his enjoyment, creative writes the shows for his enjoyment because if they don't they get yelled at and possibly fired. Vince believes he's a genius, all that crap that's ever been said positive about him and that he is a trend maker now. Where he is able to TELL the public what they want vs. trying to divine what they want and give it to them. It's ridiculous and totally defies common sense. Yes you can ride the lightning and all but most of WWE's successes, and certainly the attitude era was a case where Vince basically had to have the good sense to hop onto a train that was leaving the station and get behind the new direction of things.

Far as Chavo, you know what? I'd say he's pretty goddamn ruined, get him off TV, and get him off RAW and see if you can't rebuild him...you can't possibly take this guy seriously at all at this point.

Far as the guest host concept, look hate it all you want, but they are getting good numbers from it so as long as it's getting them good numbers and they're not having to spend money to do it, it'd be stupid NOT to keep doing it.

I don't think the guest host thing will last all that long before they get tired of the concept, but for now there is some use for it. They may as well play around with the concept until they find someone better to do the GM job.

Has anyone gotten the Rise and Fall of WCW yet?

ECW wasn't bad the other day. Regal and Christian seem to work well together. Shame they couldn't have that kind of match at SS. I would rather have them have time than give it to Khali and Kane.

From WWE.com: In accordance with WWE's Wellness Program, effective Wednesday, September 2, Oscar Gutierrez (Rey Mysterio) is suspended for 30 days for a violation of the company's policy.

Wow, day one without Jeff Hardy.

Kind of fucks the IC title too. Now it'll just be Dolph in a midcard feud.

That will really hurt the smackdown brand, since he is one of the top stars on the brand. The undertaker will make up for his absence. Since rey was the Intercontinental Champion there going to have to do something with that, i don't mean putting it on Dolph Ziggler. Not going to work.

Oh, Jeff hardy is confirmed to leave the company this friday. Spoiler link is below if you want to see how.

The suspension takes effect when it does so that Rey can drop the belt (and since Ziggler is in line for a shot I'd look for him to take it and a hastily rushed match for him at Breaking Point to take place). Curious to see what Rey failed for but I could probably guess. A shame these guys continue to abuse themselves in this way and seem to think they won't be caught.

Sounds about right. Dolph can come out and say he doesn't want to wait until Breaking Point, and they can have the match at next week's SD tapings.

I'm really hoping this wasn't roid-related. I'd like to think that a guy who was one of Eddie's best friends, and a friend of Benoit would know better than to use steroids.

In all honesty, Rey was one of the last guys I would have guessed to be caught witha wellness violation. The dude was close friends with Eddie and more importantly than that has a wife and young kids to be a role model for. The violation comes at a lousy time too. Guess Dolf will be getting that IC gold afterall. So much for a lenghty title run.

You'd think Eddie's nephew would know better then to use drugs also but he didn't. The biggest issue to me is that there is still that stigma I believe within WWE that if you're small, you don't get pushed. Yes, the guys are still making that active choice to do the wrong thing and they are responsible...but if they would push smaller guys and not send the message that they'd better look bigger if they want to go anywhere in the company maybe they'd see less violations in regards to roids, HGH, and other such drugs and supplements.

They will probably keep the title off breaking point, theres plenty of other matches that should get ppv time at the moment.

Drew McIntyre looks, sounds, acts alot like paul burchill.. not a bad thing.. but i bet they get teamed up at some point.

Wtf? Rey? Oh come on, you can't be that stupid........

See ya' later, Jeff.

Dusty Rhodes is going to host next Monday's RAW. Interesting to see whose side he takes......

It looks like Dixie Carter's trying to reinvent TNA's image. You'd think trying to revive the Monday Night Wars would be a bad thing, but RAW's going down the shitter - what better time?

No...no no no no no....*sniff* I'm watching SmackDown! right now, and...and...oooohhhh....I know it's fake, but come on!! Jeff is half the reason I watch WWE(the other is the faces they make, lol)!! I hope for McMahon's sake that Jeff will do what The Miz did...but he's too awesome to do...wait. Too awesome...? -_- Anyway, did any of you notice that Jeri-Show's music changed? And MVP's did too. *sigh* WWE is really going down the drain....if Randy Orton leaves, I'm jumping off the Empire State Building.

My grampa hates Jeff Hardy, but he still thinks that the match is gonna end in a tie. ...I...I think I'm going to be sick. I hate McMahon SO much...even if Snot-Nosed Punk is gonna get beaten up by The Undertaker. *sigh* I wish grampa were right...*sniff* I'M GONNA MISS JEFF SO MUCH!!!! *sob sob*

I hope they do another contract match...with the "Calgary Kid"(Jeff)...

Okay, sorry for three posts in a row, but...yeah, you know. The worst main event in WWE history. Someone comfort me. *sniff*

I treat wrestling as real because I actually care about my favorite characters.

Oh god! Jeff was my role model! He was my inspiration in the art world! And now he's gone! *sob* I'll probably need to go to a child psychiatrist I'm so freakin' sad! It's like my role model died!

Please, comfort me. *sob sob*

Oh god, I just noticed! I'll have to change my sig now! GAAHHH! It just gets worse and worse!!

Jeff had a great sendoff..........until Punk decided he STILL wasn't quite heel enough. All the more sweeter when he realizes being Straightedge doesn't save you from getting sent to hell - that, and being in a Submission Match with a guy whose signature hold causes internal bleeding....... :P

I know JeriShow's did, but not MVP's.

Btw, noticing the wwe.com screenshot during SD, it seems that the name 'JeriShow' has caught on. :P

Eeeeeeeeasy now.........there, there....

apparently Mysterio vs Ziggler is still being advertised for Breaking Point
even if it is, it's fairly obvious that Ziggler is going to take out the gold

is this going to affect rey's position? personally, i don't think so
he isn't really in the World Heavyweight Title picture at all, and he's too popular to be a jobber.. also Jeff Hardy never really got demoted after his suspensions.. and he had 2 of them!

anyways on another note, I have to say that I've really warmed up to Mike Knox.. I love the new gimmick he has, he is a big burly rough looking guy, yet he's soft spoken and intelligent.. and slightly psychotic.. I'm glad he isn't labeled as another one of those "big dumb giant" characters who have to humiliate themselves by dancing or jumping around like alot of the big guys have (big show, snitsky, matt m-m-m-mmmmmm-m-morgan, and most recently, great khali)

speaking of which i remember reading somewhere that Brock Lesnar was originally set to have that stuttering gimmick matt morgan had.. geez.. if lesnar did have that gimmick i could see him getting released about 6 months after his debut...

The send-off for Jeff was done well I think. It makes Punk the hated person for sending Jeff away and his last shot at the end of the show was like icing on a cake. They had a good match too. It will be interesting to see if they have Matt persue Punk while he fueds with Undertaker.

I enjoyed the tag bouts as well. Morrison and Matt seem to work well as a team and Jerishow continue to do some great work.

Khali may suck in the ring but he sure can swing a cane. Those shots looked sick!
