Hogan embarrassed by WCW and TNA nightmare:

"The thing is, I watch the old tapes of myself, WCW, and it's embarrassing because towards the end I was getting to where it was embarrassing to kind of like be in there and then I watch the TNA (Wrestling) stuff and that was a nightmare. I tried to get in there. I was in the middle of the back surgeries trying to keep up. The doctors would say 'you'll be fine' but to watch it now is embarrassing. Not that Vince would want this, not that Triple H would want this but I keep telling everybody that my goal, because I'm not in pain anymore, that my goal would be to get back in there, not embarrass myself if that's possible and have that one more match. And if that works, if that really were to work I would love to contribute and participate and do some stuff because I miss it so much."

Sting on one more match:

"If that can't happen [Undertaker match], Triple H, I think. I just would like to have one more match. I would love to say I had one match under the WWE banner and, of course, WrestleMania. Who wouldn't want to say that they wrestled at WrestleMania at least one time."

Heyman blasts WWE over Punk:

"They never wanted CM Punk to begin with. When I was in Louisville, doing WWE Developmental, they sent CM Punk down to me so I could fire him. Every week I would send memos to guys who were in charge of the Raw and SmackDown rosters saying: 'You have a main eventer down here; someone scoop him up' and no one would take him for a year—to the point when we launched ECW in WWE, I brought him with me because no one else on Raw and SmackDown even wanted him."

He went on to say that everything Punk achieved was in spite of the WWE machine, not because of it.

Jake The Snake talks sobriety:

"I had completely given up. But I finally reached that point. I'd gotten out of the ring because I was just so bad physically, I couldn't get out of a chair, much less get in a ring. So it was over and I was waiting to die. Then my buddy (DDP) reached out. He said, 'I'll take care of your bills. You don't have to pay rent. I'm going to feed you the best food on the planet. I'm going to help you lose 75 pounds,' … and I'd already lost 10 pounds when he hit me with that. I jumped on that. For me to lose 10 pounds, it was a miracle. It was the first positive thing that had happened to me in 10 years."

SmackDown:

Tom Phillips has been promoted to the SmackDown announce team.

Rosa Mendes:

Rosa Mendes has only ever won one singles match in her entire WWE career, and that was by DQ, she wants to change that...

Mick Foley talks career injuries:

"I knew when I got involved with professional wrestling, participating in the style I chose to use, that back pains were just going to come with the territory. From a 1994 disc herniation that had back specialists throwing around the term "partial paralysis", to my struggles with sciatic nerve pain over the last 17 years, back pain has been pretty constant in my life. But after spending half of my family Disney World vacation in bed – literally not able to get out of bed, I realize I am going to have to do something. A couple years ago, a respected neurosurgeon told me that I simply had too many issues with my back - skeletal, neurological, etc., - and there was no one operation that was going to be the answer to relieving my pain. But as the Godfather told me once, "limpin ain't easy" - and after 17 years of doing it, I think it's about time I sought out a second opinion."

NXT injury:
