- Roddy Piper may be on Raw tonight.

- Vinny and I will be back late tonight with a brand new radio show recapping Raw. If you haven't had a chance to download them, we did two shows this weekend for members. Saturday night was ECW, TNA and Ultimate Fighter, plus my thoughts on my ICW/ICWA Texarkana TV Title loss to Larry Sweeney, and last night was Smackdown and in-depth thoughts on Backlash. Check it out now if you haven't already!

- Believe it or not, the DVD with that match is already available for order here. I strongly recommend picking it up as it was a very good show. My match was actually a four-way with Sweeney, Delirious and Ruckus with both my title and Larry's Super Indy Title on the line. Awesome Kong and the Motor City Machine Guns worked the show, plus Jerry Lynn and Davey Richards both competed in the one-night tournament.

- RVD's wife Sonya underwent surgery Friday on her colon cancer and apparently things went very well. Continued best wishes to them.

- WWE axed both Dave Taylor and Balls Mahoney today.

- TNA tapes tonight and if anyone reading this attends we'd love a taping report for the main page. They'll set up the final matches for the next PPV (the one with the tag team tournament thingy). Two new girls may be debuting for the ever-growing women's division tonight as well.

- Derby City Wrestling's Al Barone, who we had on Figure Four Daily a few months back (show is available in the archive right now for members) has signed with WWE and will likely get the role as Santino's bodyguard. They couldn't have found a better man to play the role.

- Warrior has been doing interviews all over the place hyping up his return match with Orlando Jordan for NWE in Italy a few months from now. One of the angles he's pushing is that he wants a match with Vince McMahon at WrestleMania in Houston. Don't hold your breath.

- UFC cut Travis Lutter and it's expected that many more are on the way.
