WWE.com has comments up regarding the passing of WWE Hall of Famer Fabulous Moolah with Mae Young, Howard Finkel, Nikolai Volkoff, Donna Christanello, Victoria and WWE Women's Champion Beth Phoenix.

Tickets officially went on sale this morning to the public for WrestleMania 24 in Orlando, Florida at the Florida Citrus Bowl. According to WWE.com, 41,000 tickets for the event were sold in 30 minutes making WrestleMania 24 the highest-grossing event in the history of the Florida Citrus Bowl so far (noting that the show has already outsold the Rolling Stones' Citrus Bowl appearance). Tickets are still available and can be purchased.

Rey Mysterio will wear a California Cougars jersey of the Major Indoor Soccer League to the ring when he teams with WWE World Champion Batista in the main event of a Stockton, California house show this weekend.

The Island Triathlon Series celebrity relay in Turks and Caicos that Trish Stratus will take part in has been postponed until March 29, 2008, the same weekend as next year's WrestleMania 24 from Orlando, Florida.
