The SmackDown taping on that date will now be held in Cincinnati.

TNA releases continue:


Bruce (Brother Love) Prichard and D'Lo Brown have both been released by TNA today.

The budget cut releases are now into double figures, the issues are so bad that even Hulk Hogan is being paid late, and more worryingly TNA insiders say some talent are talking to friends at WWE and are sending out ''Feelers'' to gage WWE's interest in them.

One of those is rumoured to be Kazarian, after comments he made in a podcast interview, he said he would ''Never say never'' to a WWE deal.

Backstage WWE news:


David Otunga's absence is being written off as PR work, he currently appears on courtroom shows discussing criminal cases in the news.

Plans are changing all the time, so expect this to be amended.

He wrote of his cousin...

"10 years ago my cousin, Sarona Snuka divorced, decided to go back to college to complete her education and be a great example for her two beautiful little girls she was raising - all while working as a janitor. Today, she's one of the WWE's most successful Divas, a proud (and hot;) single mom who will be making her big screen debut w/ me in HERCULES and more importantly, a shining example to women of all ages around the world that thru endless hard work you can achieve anything when you make up your mind to achieve it.''

And finally I would like to say Thank You...

It has just been brought to my attention that we have today hit 1000 fans, That is a massive validation of all the work I put into this page every day, and again I thank you for following and supporting it, to those that have been around long term, and especially those that were around from the early days and talked me out of closing it down when it was struggling to get off the ground (58 fans after the first 6 months), and welcome to the new comers that have brought us to this milestone achievement.
