WWE numbers take a hit:

The PPV buy's for both WWE PPV events of 2014 so far have seen a drastic drop, The Royal Rumble drew 67,000 less buyers, while Elimination Chamber shed 10,000 viewers in comparison with their 2013 buyrates.

The highest selling DVD of 2013, (Bar WrestleMania) was the Goldberg retrospective, selling 99,000 copies, the rest of the top 5 were WWE 50 (86,000), Mid South (64,000), Triple H, Thy Kingdom... (64,000), and ECW Volume 2 (62,000).

WrestleMania 30:

All three members of 3MB have been added to the Battle Royal by Kane, and Ryback and Curtis Axel have been withdrawn from the match, probably for the Tag Team Title match, which will also include the Real Americans, and of course, the defending champs The Uso's, but that is yet to be made official. Rey Mysterio was not announced, so the match now has 17 confirmed entrants, 13 places are still available.

Jake The Snake snubbed:

The Chicago comic con rejected Jake The Snake's offer to appear for them.

On a more positive note, He has credited Diamond Dallas Page with saving his life...

"No one grows up and says they want to be an alcoholic or a drug addict. It just happens. The best way to avoid that happening to you is never trying it in the first place. I was in so much pain before getting together with Dallas. I was using coke and drinking just to get through the day. That's not the case anymore. Dallas saved my life. I owe everything I have right now to him and helping me get back on the right path. It wasn't rehab Dallas put me through. It was tough love and it sunk in more than any rehab I ever tried."

And on his upcoming Hall Of Fame induction...

"Had I not gotten clean with Dallas' help, I wouldn't be going into the Hall of Fame. The WWE doesn't want to put someone out there and not be able to trust what they will say in front of a worldwide audience. Being clean has given me another chance in life."

Scotty 2 Hotty interview:

On returning to wrestling...

"I realized last year I went to fire school and EMT school and graduated both of those, finished up and started looking for a job and I thought I was out of wrestling, and then I got the call to go to 'Old School' Raw and doing that and being there for the day I realized I know I can still go, I don't want to be that guy embarrassing himself, I know I can still go. I'm in better shape now then the last time I was there full-time. And you just know there's probably only a few more years where I can do this and the level I want to do it. I started taking a little bit more (bookings). I've said for the last few years I'm just using this as a vehicle to take me to different places I've never been anyways. I just went to Ecuador for the first time, South America for the first time ever, stuff like that. I tell my kids find a job that's going to pay you to travel the world on someone else's dime and that's basically what I use it for now."

On working with WWE now, as a legend, vs then, as a rostered star...

"You know what's so cool wrestling for them now? When you're there as a full-time guy and you're wrestling four nights a week, you kind of take it for granted. Everything is going 100 miles an hour. Whereas now, like when I went back for 'Old School' Raw, you go this could be the last time. And you kind of appreciate it more. You take it all in. And then same thing for NXT. This could be the last time I'm in a WWE ring. Hopefully it's not and chances are it's not going to be because I'm still in decent shape and relatively young. I'm sure there'll be more coming down the road but you say that to yourself and appreciate it."

WWE Top 10:

Feats of strength...

The Shield:

Possible SPOILER!!!...

WWE may have Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins turn heel on Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 30. WWE have turned the group face for a run with the New Age Outlaws leading up to Mania, but a creative leak today suggests they plan to take advantage of the angle and have Ambrose / Rollins turn on Reigns, because WWE feel it will mean more for them to turn on Reigns, then for Reigns to walk away from them.
