Alum blasts WWE:

Tazz was not happy with WWE's handling of Ronda Rousey this week...

"They take the most credible female they have in the history of the WWE, and second impression of her, and they made her look bad already. She should have went after Stephanie like she wanted to kill her. I'm talking about legitimate police officers there holding her back, two or three or them, something. A couple of the boys, somebody. Someone needed to stop her. Stephanie should have been terrified of her. Absolutely freakin terrified of her. But instead, Stephanie got in her face and apologized. When the girl, Ronda, demanded an apology, Stephanie had to get the upper hand and look down at her and say, 'I'm sorry.' That sucked! That sucked. Build the girl and get her over. She's legit! She's legit. What WWE did, sucked. Sucked!"

Fastlane:

John Cena has become the sixth man added to the main event of Fastlane.

Mania Reyturn:

Rey Mysterio will finalise a deal to work at WrestleMania, reportedly vs John Cena, this week. According to one source WWE were going to start the Cena vs Taker angles on Raw this week but were informed, on the day, by the dead man that he did not intend to work at this years event. Cena was asked who he wanted instead and picked either Samoa Joe or Rey. Joe's status is still not known, which lead them to invite Rey to last nights TV taping to present him with the offer. He was there.

Other sources claim no knowledge of the Taker call, but if he did not say he wants a year off Cena going elsewhere raises questions of his role. There are a couple of options, Braun is short of a dance partner after a swap in the IC angle (Although there is talk he and Elias will be figured into some kind of multi man gimmick match), he could be an option, HOF isn't complete yet, but that of course would likely be the full stop on his career, so let's hope it's not that. Another match vs his brother Kane, maybe?

D'Von talks failed return:

D'Von Dudley has talked about the last run he had in WWE, and why it ended early...

"Number one, Bubba Ray Dudley wanted to go and explore other avenues, which is what he is doing now, and it was one of those things where I still wanted to be part of the company. I still had the urge but he wanted to explore other avenues, which is what ended up happening. I cannot knock him for wanting to do other things; life is too short so you have to do what you want to do. Life is too short to do what others want you to do, and I give him a lot of credit. Let it be known that I didn't retire because I was hurt, or that I couldn't do it. D-Von can still go; I can still jump on the top turnbuckle and jump on the table, so if WWE ever wants me to get back in the ring I can do it."

Controversial guest:

Colin Cowherd, who regularly attacks WWE and wrestling in general, was a backstage guest at SD last night. Old boy Shad Gaspard was there too.

Paige starts new job:

Paige has launched her clothing store, with help from some of her colleagues past and present.

UFC getting their man:

Dana White commented on his recent meeting with Brock Lesnar today. He said the chances of him going back are...

"They're very, very, very good."

Hardyz:

WWE are hopeful Jeff Hardy can be cleared in time for Mania and are starting  to work on an angle for him in case he is. WWE might be taking Matt and Bray's feud to his compound next.
