- As noted before, Bret Hart is booked for upcoming SmackDown live events. There has been talk of The Hitman returning to WWE TV for some kind of storyline soon.
- Sting stars in a new Christian movie called “The Encounter” that was released earlier this month on DVD. He told The Baltimore Sun the following about the movie:
“It’s about five people traveling down a road, and due to weather they all get stuck. They end up at a diner, which maybe one or two of them saw, and the rest of them never did. They go into the diner and have an encounter with a guy named Jesus, who actually ends up being Jesus Christ. He meets each one of us where we are in our lives. We’re all then forced with a choice to make, to either accept him or not. It really covers pretty much every walk – every person who has that choice.
- Shawn Michaels may be doing the “wheel spinning” at Monday’s RAW Roulette show from Las Vegas
- Here are some recent TNA attendance figures:
* June 16th in London, Ontario drew 1,000 fans
* June 17th in Toronto, Ontario drew 1,000 fans
* June 18th in Buffalo, NY with Hulk Hogan drew 2,000 fans for BaseBrawl
- After the Tough Enough finale part of RAW a few weeks back, WWE’s John Laurinaitis ripped into Andy Leavine for about five minutes about how Leavine shit on everything Vince McMahon and Steve Austin have done for the business, and about how he was a piece of crap who will never amount to anything in the business. Laurinaitis was mad because they felt Andy should have stayed down longer after the slap from Vince and the Stunner from Austin.
- The value of the McMahon family’s WWE stock is currently $163 million. For a comparison against UFC, Lorenzo Fertitta’s stock would be worth $506 million, Frank Fertitta’s would be worth $506 million and Dana White’s stock would be worth $113 million.
- WWE officials now realize that they have dropped the ball twice with Ted DiBiase Jr. and reuniting him with Cody Rhodes on SmackDown is supposed to be a way of reversing things. The idea now is to re-create the dynamic that Alex Riley and The Miz had, with Rhodes and DiBiase. The plan right now is for DiBiase to continue doing Rhodes’ “dirty work” until Ted turns babyface and feuds with Cody.
