The King talks auto wreck:

"I'm fine, but Lauryn is pretty banged up. We had taken care of the trick-or-treaters and went for pizza right near the house. We were coming home to catch the end of the University of Memphis game. I was sitting at a red light at a busy intersection not a minute from my house. I got the green arrow to make a left turn. I started making the turn and I saw the car coming, not slowing down at all. The driver ran a red light. Lauryn was in the ER for four hours. Her face is really, really swollen on the left side. They also put her in a leg brace and knee immobilizer. I think she has a concussion because this morning when she got up, she fell down and saw stars and black spots."

D'Von reveals fans paid him better than WWE:

He was talking about his time as Reverend D'Von, when he used to walk around the arena with a donation box. He revealed he made $300 - $400 a night...

"I told Paul E. [Heyman] that [fans putting money in the box] would never happen and he said, 'D-Von, if you deliver the message the way you should deliver it, they'll give you money.' Sure enough, people were dropping dollar bills inside the collection box!. APA would be right there looking at me [opening the money box backstage] going, 'hey, Devon, what are we drinking tonight? You're paying, right?.'"

Bubba talks heated incident with E&C / Hardyz:

They fell out over a big bump planned for Mania 17...

"We got to a heated discussion [or] debate about what was going to be the final bump of the match, whether it was going to be the spear [from Edge to Jeff Hardy] in mid air or it was going to be me and Matt [Hardy] going off the ladder through the four tables. And I wanted it to be the spear and it didn't wind up being the last big bump of the match."

X-Pac blasts UK promoter:

A twitter feud has begun between X-Pac and a UK promoter. X-Pac accused him of advertising him for an event he was not paid for, and despite X-Pac still offering to work the event, pulled him without informing the fans, or X-Pac himself. The promoter responded to the accusations, telling a very different story. He said it was X-Pac's manager that pulled the gig, after X-Pac changed his fee at the last minute, and they could not match the new price, he then criticised his public outcry, after ignoring repeated attempts at contact by the promoter, who wanted to talk to him in person, after the talks with his manager broke down.

Where is Rocco?:

LOD Animal has revealed what happened to the puppet WWE made them carry in 1992...

"That puppet got 'mysteriously lost' at the airport, I'll tell you that right now. After Summerslam, that thing were gone. They did the puppet because Hawk and I sold a lot of action figures. They were trying to find a softer side of the Road Warriors. We have spiked shoulder pads on. No way you're going to find a softer side to the Road Warriors. It was their idea, and Hawk and I hated it."

Animal has also joined the new legends run wrestling promotion, and revealed Roddy Piper was involved in the planning of the group, before his death.

Alundra replied with a photo shopped image of the two in the ring together, and said she was training, and would be ready to go.

Batista on ''Crap'' WWE run:

"I don't know if it would go any different because it was just butting heads. I was just constantly butting heads with them creatively which is something we talked about well beforehand and I was promised things that weren't delivered to me. For one, I didn't want to go back as a babyface. I said it's not going to work, they don't want to see me as a babyface. I'm the worst babyface ever. But I'm a good heel, I know how to be a heel, I'm comfortable being a heel and the fans want me to be a heel. But they tried to shove me down everybody's throats and they rebelled. They're not idiots and they don't like it and they don't want it. Then it became a state of confusion where they didn't know what they wanted to do with me so they'd just send me out every week regurgitating the same crap and it was just horrible."

He says he will still go back though...

"Oh yeah. At the end of the day I love WWE and I've proven that I wouldn't wrestle anywhere else. I feel like wrestling anywhere else would be a step down. I love the company and I will always be appreciative for what they've done for me. I would love to go back, they're just really hard to deal with and also right now my passion is acting and I'm pursuing it. But if the opportunity comes up and they were a little more flexible with me as far as creative, I'd love to. But also, I would do it in a heartbeat and I don't want big money, I don't want a limited schedule, if they would allow me to go back and just do house shows I'd be all over it. Because then you just skip all of the red tape and you don't have to deal with the writers and all that bullsh*t. And my thing is wrestling. Wresters. Audience. Ring. That's all I want."

Shelton remembers last WWE match:

He said he visited a WWE show in Houston, Texas in 2011...

"Honestly, me and Big Show are really good friends and he basically kept hounding me like, 'come on! Come down [and] say hello to your boy. I was just about to leave and someone said, 'hey Shelton, Johnny Ace is looking for you.' I was like, 'okay,' and Laurinaitis was like, 'hey, do you feel like doing the dark match?'. I'm like, 'sure, but I've got to go home and get my stuff'".

Rousey ready:

Ronda Rousey says she is ready, and excited to make the switch to WWE...

"I'm ready. I've seen NXT, I remember Nattie and Charlotte's match for the title. Nattie was actually training with the original Four Horsewomen to get ready for that fight. I have so many obligations, but I really want to find a way to make it happen. I'm a huge fan wrestling, and I would like to see the position of women in the sport continue to improve, so if I can be a part of it, great. I'm really encouraged by the progress I've seen with what they're doing with the women in WWE, but I feel like there's a lot more than can be done. They're doing some of it now, too. I'm really excited that they've brought up all these great women from NXT, who are all different from the normal mold they would use for the Divas division. I'm not going to take credit for anything, but I definitely want to be part of it as much as I can."

WWE star in movie:

David Otunga has landed a cameo in an indy movie.

Randy Orton talks why he prefers WWE over movies:

''I took the family to see The Last Witch Hunter and Vin Diesel is in it. There's this one spot with Kurt Angle. He has no lines and he's in it for maybe six seconds and I looked over to my fiancé, Kim, and I was like 'Yeah, he auditioned for that role and probably maybe enough to buy a Fiji water at the airport.' It's either be Batista and become Drax and sign a three-movie deal with Guardians of the Galaxy and work with [Robert] DeNiro and be a heel in the next James Bond movie or have a six second spot as a bodyguard with no lines where you don't even get put in the credits. It's tough, man. I'd rather be a main event superstar for the WWE for the next 10 years rather than try and make it out in Hollywood where all these people study this craft their whole life. The craft I studied was wrestling. I'm good at it and I enjoy it but the whole movie thing, doing a film from time-to-time for WWE is probably going to be the extent of my film career.''

He also said his favourite RKO was the Evan Bourne one.

New star:

Nia Jax has been added to WWE's roster page.
