- Vince McMahon, John Cena, Chris Jericho, Big Show, HHH and Mayweather were all scheduled for Larry King Live tonight but got bumped for a special on five years in Iraq. This is the second week straight they've been bumped.

- The Chikara King of Trios DVD is already available at smartmarkvideo.com.

- Raw did a 3.55 Monday.

- Devin Cutting writes: Due to the NCAA basketball tournament, The Score in Canada will be delaying Monday Night Raw until midnight on April 7th. The replay airs on April 8th at 4 PM.

- Figure Four Daily schedule for the next two weeks will be wacky. Dave Meltzer and Buddy Wayne will be switching. Because I'll be in Orlando from March 26 through April 1 it will be easier to do Dave's show this weekend than next. Buddy Wayne will be on next week, then we'll be back to normal. Today's regularly-scheduled Figure Four Daily will be moved to tomorrow, and we'll be talking with former World Class producer Mickey Grant about the life of Gary Hart. Friday we'll also be talking Gary Hart and much, much more with former WWE creative team member and MLW promoter Court Bauer, then Dave returns on Saturday. We will still have three Figure Four Dailies next week and at least one show with Craig, Vinny and I from Orlando. We'll try to do something post-Mania as well. Can't guarantee anything past that but we'll see what we can do!

- Cauliflower Alley Club weekend in Vegas is June 9th-11th at the Riviera. They're planning a big wrestling show on the 9th as well.

- WWE has an Andre the Giant bio coming out in October. That should be a whopper.

- Spencer Fisher vs. Marcus Aurelio has been axed from the April 2 UFC Fight Night show after Fisher suffered a shoulder injury. By my calculations that means there are only 22 bouts that night.

- Hogan picks the good ones

- Ric Flair will be featured on SECRET TALENTS OF THE STARS, which premieres April 8 on CBS. Some of his biggest exposure ever and he'll probably be retired. His secret talent is SALSA DANCING. YEAH~! Flair will also be awarded the key to the city of Columbia, SC on Monday.

- Gregory Helms has thoughts on Eric Young and Jeff Hardy here.

- Former WWE writer Seth Mates has stories up here and here about Katie Vick and the splitting of the Raw/Smackdown brands. Interesting reads.

- The UFC 82 drug tests came back and nobody failed.

- The new Heyman Hustle is up here.

- Smackdown spoilers for Tuesday are up here.
