In an interview with the Los Angeles Times, UFC star Chuck Liddell was asked about doing WWE when his MMA career was over. "No way. I don't have any interest in doing professional wrestling. Nothing against their shows, but it's not for me. Doing that many shows, trusting those big guys not to hurt you. It's not something I'm interested in," said Liddell.

Antonio Inoki claimed that Kurt Angle would miss his 4/12 IGF show in Osaka, Japan due to an injury. Angle is actually missing the show because TNA has a fanfest for the Lockdown PPV on the same day.

Karen Angle gave an interview to the Real Fighter magazine. In the interview, she claimed the reason Kurt hasn't done MMA is when it comes to putting money on paper, nobody has been able to follow through. Angle was actually offered seven figures to fight Daniel Puder.
