We're looking for reports on last night's ROH TV tapings at the Arena in Philadelphia.

The scheduled continues tonight with a live UFC show on Spike headlined by Diego Sanchez vs. Clay Guida and Joe Stevenson vs. Nate Diaz, plus the Ultimate Fighter finals with Damarques Johnson vs. James Wilks for the middleweight contract and Ross Pearson vs. Andre Winner for the lightweight contract. Raw will be in Moline, Smackdown in Saginaw and another ROH TV taping in Philadelphia. The six ROH main events taped over the next two days are Jay Briscoe vs. Roderick Strong vs. D-Lo Brown, Davey Richards vs. El Generico, Nigel McGuinness returns against Tyler Black, Bryan Danielson vs. Sonjay Dutt, Austin Aries vs. Roderick Strong, and Black vs. Jerry Lynn.

Sunday is TNA's Slammiversary PPV from the Palace in Auburn Hills, MI, featuring a King of the Mountain match for the TNA title with Mick Foley vs. Kurt Angle vs. Jeff Jarrett vs. Samoa Joe vs A.J. Styles. Raw will be in Kalamazoo and Smackdown in Dubuque.

Monday is the live commercial-free Raw from Green Bay headlined by Randy Orton vs. HHH for the WWE title. It'll be a tri-branded show and Donald Trump will be there. The scheduled house show in Valparaiso, IN, was canceled yesterday.

Tuesday will be Smackdown & ECW tapings in Milwaukee, so what are the odds of a mention of The Crusher? TNA will be taping Tuesday through Thursday next week in Orlando.

We have another double issue of the Observer coming on Monday with part one of a two part feature on the life of Mitsuharu Misawa, the heyday of All Japan Pro Wrestling, the formation of Pro Wrestling NOAH, the end of the glory days of Japanese wrestling and a lot more.

We also look at the WWE with Donald Trump as a new character in the show, the gimmick of the commercial free Raw, the next PPV, some funny stories about what went on at the show and full coverage of a PPV level edition of Raw.

We also have notes on the Tim Sylvia-Ray Mercer debacle, the UFC Mirko Cro Cop debacle, how things went down, as well as a look at the business of UFC 99 and full coverage of the show.

We also look at the lawsuit filed by Nancy Benoit's parents, TripleMania and what happened the next night, Ring of Honor leaving PPV, Dragon Gate getting PPV and what is the same and what is different about the deals, the Ric Flair-ROH situation that went down on Saturday night, the lawsuit against Big Show and WWE on breach of contract and the latest boxing legend to do a stint in pro wrestling.

The issue is available right now for web site subscribers, and you can get a mail subscription to the Observer with information below.

A look back at the life and the tragic death of Mitsuharu Misawa is our lead story, as we look back first at one of the biggest pro wrestling events ever held, the beginning of Japanese pro wrestling and how it has changed. We look at the death of Giant Baba, the ascension of Misawa as the top star in All Japan, the last few months of Misawa's life, his all-time business record, why he won the title for the final time, what had and hadn't been talked about regarding him retiring, as well as his last match and the aftermath.

We look at what exactly happened, the decision to keep the tour going and what happened at the next few shows, coverage of the death and how it varied, Jun Akiyama's vacating the GHC title, the ascension of Go Shiozaki, Misawa in ROH, the end of the glory days of All Japan Pro Wrestling, as well as how Misawa first got into the business.

We also look at what was covered after his death as his most famous match, the background of the match and the match itself, his days as Tiger Mask, the beginnings of Pro Wrestling NOAH and the first two nights. We look at the height of the Pro Wrestling NOAH promotion and the two biggest shows in its history.

We also look back at the Misawa vs. Kawada story, their final match and the last great emotional match of Misawa's career.

Show starts at 9:00 PM Eastern and Pacific, free on Spike TV. Dave will be at this show live in Vegas, and we'll be doing a very late-night post-event radio show talking both UFC and last night's Strikeforce show, probably around 12:30 or 1:00 AM Pacific time. We'll also be back later tomorrow night with a second show following the TNA Slammiversary PPV.

-- We will have live running play-by-play for the show on the front page as well.

-- Last night's Strikeforce was a fun event live, but probably not anything you need to go out of your way to see. Probably the biggest thing was the performance of Lyle "Fancy Pants" Beerbohm, who choked out Duane Ludwig in his tenth career win on the undercard. Just a few years back he was addicted to crystal meth and serving an 18-month prison sentence, and he happened to see an episode of TUF on Spike and that lead to him turning his life around. "When I was sitting in prison and watching the show," he said, "I was like 'Are you serious? Those guys are on TV, making money?' I knew I could take those guys so, right then and there, I made up my mind and haven't looked back since." He said he wants to win the Strikeforce title. The company was very high on him after last night's show.

-- Both Tokyo Sports and Nikkan Sports newspapers are doing special issues Monday on Misawa.

-- The 2009 edition of TNA Bound For Glory will be held on October 18th at the University Of California's Bren Events Center in Irvine (part of Orange County). Thanks to Devin Cutting.

-- We'll have exact numbers in the next day or so, but we got a report that the only tickets remaining for the Portland UFC on August 29th at the Rose Garden, which went on sale to the public this morning, were in the $600 sections.

-- ROH on HDNet tonight has KENTA vs. Roderick Strong, Claudio Castagnoli vs. Necro Butcher, McChif vs. Neveah, and Kenny Omega vs. Kenny King.

-- Paul Heyman talks about CM Punk becoming a superstar here, with notes on what Gabe Sapolsky told Heyman when Punk first went to developmental.

-- Add Matt Walsh to the list of those released from WWE developmental last week. He talks about the situation here.

-- Chris Jericho talks his role on the Disney XD show Aaron Stone here

-- Here's a Where Are They Now? for you: PN NEWS

-- TNA is holding a house show at the River Center in Baton Rouge, Louisiana on August 8th, 2009. Tickets go on sale June 26th, 2009 at 10 AM.

-- TNA will be holding a house show on August 7th, 2009 at the Mississippi Coast Coliseum in Biloxi, Mississippi. Tickets go on sale June 26th, 2009.

-- There is an article here with speculation about whether the SEC might open up an investigation into WWE's and USA's claim last week that Donald Trump had bought Raw. Sometimes it's a bit annoying when wrestling falls under the radar because "it's just wrestling", but with something like this, there aren't more important things to do in the financial world?

-- Charles from Philly writes: In addition to Jerry Lawler, the Wizard World Philly Show also features Ax and Smash, Virgil, Greg Valentine, The Honky Tonk Man. Million Dollar Man is also advertised as being there, but was not there as of Friday afternoon. There was a panel today featuring the wrestlers above except Lawler. It also included Nidia, and some other female wrestler. It was advertised as being a session on "So you wanna be a Wrestler" It turned out to be a Q and A with a room of about 40 people. Virgil spoke very little. Raven is also in the autograph area with the others. Most want $20 for an autographed photo. Business seemed to be slow for the wrestlers. Matt Serra was also there, he was the only one who had a line. For $20, you can get your picture taken with both Virgil and Honky Tonk. Man.

-- Quick correction from yesterday: Main Event TV is in Australia, which, like Ireland, is not in the UK.

-- Filsinger Games is releasing Legends Originals on July 11th, the latest expansion to their Legends of Wrestling card game. It will feature a number of guys including Rob Van Dam, Adrian Street, Al Snow, Maurice Tillet, and Bryan Danielson. I never thought I'd see Bryan Danielson and Maurice Tillet in the same sentence. More info is up at filsignergames.com
