The diva who accompanied Paul Burchill to the ring at the SmackDown taping last night was OVW's Shelly.

Paul Heyman is not in Louisville for today's TV taping. At the wrestlers' meeting this morning, Tommy Dreamer and Al Snow went over the TV show, which was written by Heyman. The impression is that Heyman is not at OVW so that he can take care of ECW related business as there is only a little more than a month left until the brand re-debuts.

Canada's Cogeco Cable has announced that they will be carrying the WWE 24-7 service starting immediately for Cogeco Cable Ontario Digital Cable customers and will be offered to Qu?bec Digital Cable customers soon.

In today s Miami Herald features a story today regarding Hulk Hogan making a settlement on his new $12 million dollar home in Miami Beach.

Speaking of The Hogans, Al Engels sent word that they will be the guests on Jay Leno's show tonight.
