Anyway, Pac Man Jones made his "wrestling" "debut" last night, and it was ... well, it happened.

"Your contract won't allow you to touch or be touched. Ain't that a (expletive),'' Ron "The Truth" Killings yelled to Jones. "We don't have to worry about you whipping no one's (butt) around here. You better watch your back, Pacman.''

Amusingly, Jones left the event in a neck brace because of a backstage, off-camera "fight." At least nobody blew up his car.

Weirdest thing, though, is that the promotional angle has pushed over into the real world; the man who was paralyzed in the famous Make It Rain strip club shooting is a former professional wrestler, and some guys are threatening to really hurt Pac Man.

When Pacman Jones makes his first television appearance in professional wrestling, George Petraski wonders if the tables will be turned on the Titans cornerback. Petraski and his friend Tom Urbanski have been pro wrestlers. They were also co-workers at a Las Vegas strip club on Feb. 19 when a melee was followed by gunfire that hit Urbanski and paralyzed him from the waist down.

Petraski said he wonders if TNA co-founder Jeff Jarrett "has something up his sleeve" for Jones. Petraski said he and Urbanski have worked with Jarrett in the past. "Maybe the joke might be on Pacman,'' Petraski said. "Because Jeff knew us and he knew Tom and maybe he is saying, 'Hey, this guy is a clown, let's get him in here and hurt him.' In the wrestling business it's called a 'shoot,' and that is when it is real, when they try and take you out. A lot of guys know Tom, and us guys in wrestling are like a clique. They might beat Pacman into submission."

This was an angle we had not considered; we are intrigued. We're still not buying the dumb pay-per-view, though.

The only place that has had more participant behavioral problems in the last few years than the NFL happens to be the only place that will take him: The World Of Professional Wrestling.

TNA Wrestling signed suspended Tennessee Titan cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones to a contract that will see the NFL star perform as a wrestler. Jones is currently suspended for the entire 2007 NFL season, without pay, for personal conduct problems off of the field. Reportedly the Titans have no issue with Jones getting involved in professional wrestling.

We think there's some mad logic in this whole matter; we have a pretty good idea how he could enter the ring. Our favorite part about this is that the Titans "have no issue" with Jones wrestling professionally. No, seriously, Pac Man, go ahead. In fact, climb up to that top rope right now. OK, see that table over there? Jump through it! Go ahead! We don't mind.

Darren Rovell, formerly of ESPN and now at CNBC, wrote a story last week questioning whether WWE shareholders could have an action against the company now that it is pretending that owner Vince McMahon was "killed" in a car bomb last week. (Apparently, there's some sort of storyline involving McMahon and a blown up limo and ... jeez, we get tired just typing this.) When he emailed the company for comment, they accused Rovell of being a suspect.

As far as speculation as to who may have committed this heinous act against "Mr. McMahon," the WWE has not ruled out any suspects, including CNBC sports business reporter Darren Rovell. The WWE would like to thank CNBC for its concern over the "Mr. McMahon" mystery and we would like to remind your viewers to continue to tune into WWE's Monday Night RAW, cable's top rated program on USA Network (a division of NBCU), to keep abreast of the latest developments in this ongoing situation.

We are so tired of sports business reporters assassinating fictional owners of fictional sports leagues. Goddamned liberal media.
