ECW:
Tommy Dreamer says WWE funded ECW from it's very inception... "I did not find out that Paul was in bed with them until we did any episode of Byte This together and he said it on the air and if you watch my face you can see it. The story changes all the time, Jim Ross who was the head of talent relations at the time says they were in bed together all the time and that Paul Heyman would get checks, but Paul said he didn't get checks. It's many, many conspiracy theories. Shane McMahon told me Paul was in bed with WWE the entire time. Bruce Prichard said he was in bed with them since day one."

"There's been a lot of speculation for quite awhile online if I'm going to be wrestling any longer or not. WWE fortunately let me fulfill all my advertised commitments, but tonight here in Corpus Christi this was the last advertised commitment I had. I never say never - or as 'Woken' Matt Hardy would say 'Neva say neva!' - but tonight is most likely the last time you'll ever see 'Woken' Matt Hardy in a WWE ring."
TLC leak:

Shawn Stasiak reveals why he was fired from WWE:
"I had a tape recorder in my bag because it was encouraged when I was training by Dory Funk Jr. and Tom Prichard to say that when you are on the road for hours to get a tape recorder and record yourself doing promos and work on your craft. I just played a rib on a couple of guys that I was going to play back for them and that backfired. Simple as that and it made me look real bad and I ended up getting fired. I think even though I came back to WWE a year or so later that the stigma was always stuck with me. Mike Enos said that professional wrestlers are like junior high school kids with money. I kind of understand that now and everyone jumps on the bandwagon and they just took this little incident and I'll say maybe it wasn't little and if I was there and that happened now and I'm in the locker room and I hear of this young 'rook' coming in and tape recording me that it would upset me but it was the furthest thing from what their paranoid thoughts were. I wasn't working for Hard Copy and I wasn't trying to blackmail anybody it was simply a rib that went bad and I got fired. It is that simple and it just never helped my career."

Alum up for return:
Justin Gabriel says he is softening on WWE... "It is funny you say that because it changes all the time. When I left it was been there and done that and I'm good now let me try some other stuff because I still want to go to Japan and a bunch of other companies that I still want to work for on my bucket list. But every once in a while I am like well maybe I should go back just one more run because I want closure and I don't feel like as a singles competitor that I got a good run at all or like a good showing. I feel like when I left too that it was abrupt and I feel like as a performer and a person and a wrestler that I've grown and I feel like my weaknesses back then are now my strong points. While in the WWE you kind of don't evolve you just do what you get told and you kind of just stay the same and that is why they sign a lot of the Indie guys and you see it with Kevin Steen and Finn Balor and AJ and you saw them doing well on the Indies and now they are doing well on TV. So every once in a while I think maybe I will go back and if they come to me with a good storyline I don't even care about money now if they just come with a good story line and I get a good payoff for WrestleMania or maybe it is a Nexus story line I'd consider it and I'm not going to turn anything down but if you spoke to me a year ago I would have said no and never. But one thing I learned from Vince was never say never."

Taker talks HIAC 20:
"I mean, we're talking a couple of inches with even the way he landed. That could have been catastrophic. I mean it really could have, but I stepped off the panel and onto the support bars, if I hadn't of done that we would have both gone through that together. So if you can imagine, if I had stayed on that panel, my weight would have probably been on him too. Then what happens? It's a scary thought. Honestly, I did not expect him to get up from that. He hit and finally started moving around, and I was like, 'Man, that's one tough son of a gun right there.' I did happen to have a fracture in my ankle. It was such an important time in the business, you knew you had to do it, so you just grit your teeth, go in there, and do what you do.''

An indie show in Leicester, UK, was cancelled this week after locals slammed the mini wrestlers booked to appear as nothing more than ''A Victorian circus show.'' A charity for peoples of restricted growth said the ''Freak show'' was aimed solely to mock the disabled performers and had no place in the modern world. One of the performers has angrily hit back, however... "We are proving that anybody can get in that ring and can do what any big guy does. There is nothing wrong with a little guy doing pro wrestling. It doesn't matter if you have dwarfism. They want to be equal. They are getting out there, they're wrestling and doing what they love." It hasn't stopped the contagion spreading though, a show in Dorset has followed Leicester in axing a show by the promotion involved.
Fox praise WWE:

Foley talks HIAC:
Mick Foley says he agreed to be at HIAC way back in January... "This was well in the works before WWE came to see my special.

I said: 'I appreciate it, but I just feel like I have something to offer if you are willing to wait until September. I feel like I can do something more impactful for the 20th anniversary of Hell in a Cell.' So this is a case where I have definite role, it's not just a matter of throwing guys out there."

Near death Dean:
Dean Ambrose has revealed he almost died after contracting a hospital infection during surgery on his recent arm injury. He then had to have a second operation to tidy up the mistakes made during the first op, making a 3 month lay off, much, much longer... "It was just one nightmare after another. It was a pretty challenging period of time to go through. I ended up having two different surgeries. I had this MRSA, Staph infection. I nearly died. I was in the hospital for a week plugged up to this antibiotic drip thing, and I was on all these antibiotics for months that make you puke and crap your pants. So it was a pretty rough time. My arm wasn't healing correctly, and my triceps. It's kind of an indeterminate period where I initially hurt it. I thought it was, we call it Dusty elbows. It's a pretty typical wrestler thing. You just get this bursa sac of fluid on your elbow from banging it on the mat or whatever. I've had that dozens of times on both elbows. It usually just goes away. It was kind of disguised. By the time I finally went and got the first surgery, my triceps was already starting to atrophy and look weird. I wasn't able to flex my triceps for a really long time. And then the first surgery didn't really, something went wrong in the process. Probably due to that infection. It's kind of hard to say when that really even got in my body. This is a long answer to your question. But for a minute there, it was getting scary. By the time I got that second surgery, it was March, I think. My arm was so shrunken and skeletal that it was weird. I hadn't been able to move it or flex it in so long that I was starting to get scared I wasn't ever going to get it back. To go from not being able to eat my Froot Loops, to being able to get back in the ring and throw people around and throw punches and do everything back to normal, it was a very gratifying feeling. It looked good. Before I went in for the first one, they were like, 'OK, yeah, this is going to be a three- or four-month thing. You'll jump right back.' Once I woke up, they were like, 'Oh man, this is going to be six months minimum. Because we went in there, and that thing was messed up. You beat it to death. It's going to be a lot harder than you initially thought. But still, not so bad.' They said they found traces of an infection during the first surgery, but they cleaned it out. I don't know if it was in there previously, or if it came after. It could've been with me for years. I don't know. But it was about six weeks or so after that I was like, this is not healing correctly. I didn't have anything to compare it to, because I had never been hurt before. So I ended up going back for just a checkup. I thought I was just going to turn right back around and get on a plane and go home, and they were like, 'No, you have to go in again for surgery like right now.' I was like, 'Oh, no.' I had just kind of got through all of the stitches and all of that stuff. It was a giant mess. I just kept having to start back from square one. I ended up just moving to Birmingham just to play it safe and be with the doctor and best rehab guys. As soon as I got out of the second one, I was flying home, grabbing my dog, turned right back around, got in the truck and drove to Birmingham. I just stayed there for two and a half or three months until they felt like I was pretty good. Once the MRSA really got out of my system, I was working out twice a day. Rehabbing twice a day on top of that in Birmingham. Doing everything possible to try to get my arm working again, and once I started to come back, I started to make a lot of progress over the summer. So I'm feeling good now. The tendon was attached when I went in there the second time. But there was all this goo. The environment wasn't letting it heal correctly, I guess. I'm not a doctor. I don't know. But they just had to scoop out all this gooey stuff. I didn't realize how bad it was. If I hadn't gone in for that checkup, I could've gotten seriously sick. It could've been even more dangerous. But it all worked out."

"When I broke my neck, I did end up getting into the pain pill thing and getting on those. And I was able to get off that stuff. And so, but that wasn't easy, so I had to have help. I wrote about that in my book. I had to have help to get off that stuff and I did. But that was the worst I did. I didn't get into the alcohol. I didn't get into the cocaine. I didn't get into anything heavy like that. I mean, I did steroids. Whoop-dee-doo. But that goes without saying. When I broke my neck, that was the worst, the heaviest I got into anything as far as that you shouldn't be doing, but, like I said, I got off that and everything. I never drank and I never did anything else." Holly explained, "I started taking too many and I was like, 'this is ridiculous - I've got to stop,' so I did."
