2009 Golden Globe Awards

One year after a strike-induced absence, the drinking resumed. Although the 66th Annual Golden Globe Awards drew its usual set of followers tonight, this year’s program carried even more significance than usual. The reason? Heath Ledger.

With or without the Dark Knight nomination, the ceremony would have been interesting. Was this going to be the year a film about an Indian game show (Slumdog Millionaire) won top prize? Would either Meryl Streep (Mamma Mia, Doubt) or Kate Winslet (Revolutionary Road, The Reader) walk away with two awards? Could Mickey Rourke‘s comeback performance in The Wrestler earn him a surprise win over Sean Penn (Milk)?

To find out the answer to these questions (and many more), you can read our detailed coverage after the jump!

Booker T Debuts On TNA

Posted by David Onda Categories: Action, Specials, Sports, On Demand/PPV, Cable/Satellite, News, Spoilers

Former WCW and WWE World Heavyweight Champion Booker T made his Total Nonstop Action wrestling debut tonight at the company’s Genesis pay-per-view. Fans have speculated for weeks that Booker would be Sting’s mystery partner for the main event, where they would take on Kevin Nash and TNA Champion Kurt Angle. Booker left the WWE a few months ago over disputes about his move to the RAW brand, as well as his suspension after supposedly failing WWE drug testing.

Booker received a huge ovation when his familiar, “Can you dig it, sucka’?” catchphrase played throughout the Impact Zone arena. While Booker did have the chance to win the TNA World Title, he came up empty handed as Angle retained after pinning Sting.
