The National Wrestling Alliance sent out the following press release today: Hollywood, CA (December 9, 2008) – NWA™ Wrestling Showcase joins NWA™ Championship Wrestling from Hollywood as a second offering from Big Vision Entertainment and the National Wrestling Alliance®. The first set of "Showcase" tapings will happen on December 20th and 21st from the Columbia Square Studios on Sunset Blvd. in Hollywood, CA. "The reason we've decided to bring back the Showcase name is to do just that, Showcase more talent from the NWA regional promotions. During the "Hollywood" tapings last month we found several talents that we believe have what it takes to up their game and with the "Showcase" it will allow us to develop these talents, and others we know are out there, for bigger things," said Robert K. Trobich, Executive Director of the NWA. Tickets for this taping are available by calling 818-232-0770 or emailing tickets@nwawrestling.com.

Al Snow was at the TNA tapings last night and was there again tonight.

Monday night's iMPACT! taping saw a main event angle where Brother Ray was beaten down by the Main Event Mafia and then taken away by an ambulance as the crowd left the Impact Zone. They tried to play it off as a real-life angle.

There will have to be heavy editing to the segment with Suicide and the Motor City Machine Guns this week. There was a botched Code Red that came off looking like a regular sunset flip.

There was one match taped for Xplosion Monday night, which was Consequences Creed defeating Sonjay Dutt.
