Today's News

The Undertaker:

The Undertaker recently had hip surgery. It is the reason he is currently using crutches to get around.

Raw vs SmackDown:

Daniel Bryan called the Raw team cowards last night, earning an angry response from Mick Foley...

''So McMahon/Foley, the duo who booked the first women's main event on #Raw in 12 years, and who have booked the first ever Hell in a Cell Match in #WomensWrestling history are cowardly? Really? Cowardly? Daniel might want to rethink his word choice there. It seems to me the last time he chose the root word "coward" to describe someone, he was schooled by The Miz. Stephanie and I thought we would have to wait until #SurvivorSeries to humble Daniel and Shane-O Mac - but if need be, we can layeth the verbal smacketh down on their candy asses long before then. Don't mess with the #McMahonFoleyConnection. *Rock's catch-phrase stolen with his permission"

This is what D-Bry said...

"Stephanie and Mick are somewhat cowardly at running their show. Cowardly in the sense of... for example, they don't rely on their strictly RAW talent to sell their shows, they're bringing in people from the Attitude Era like Bill Goldberg. We don't need that here on SmackDown Live because we believe in our stars."

Bret Hart reveals sadistic plan for Shawn Michaels:

Talking about the nixed Mania 13 rematch...

''I wanted to do a thing where Shawn was stomping his foot, getting ready to give me the big kick, and I'm in trouble like I'm pulling myself up form the ropes on the other side of the ring and Shawn goes to give me that big kick as I stagger over to him, just like at the iron man match. Except this time I would take Shawn's foot, catch it in the air and get him to the ground and put some kind of a shoot hold on his foot and break his foot right in the middle of the ring. I wanted Shawn to tap out like they do in UFC, where it's like when they break somebody's arm they tap out pretty fast and everyone jumps in and it's a very serious kind of thing. I wanted to break Shawn's foot and then they hand me the belt and I would've gone over and stand over the top of him and go 'f*ck you.'"
