- Nothing has been confirmed from either side at this point, but a lot of people in the business feel it would be a good move for TNA to try and start a relationship with OVW, now that WWE is out of the picture. TNA probably doesn't have the money to start up a developmental territory right now, but it would be a good idea for them to invest with a group like OVW or Booker T's PCW.
- Fans at the SmackDown & ECW shows in Guatemala and Guadalajara were unhappy with the lack of pyro and lights for such stars as Kane. People also have been pointing out that there was more show and spectacle than actual wrestling on the shows. Teddy Long announced in Guadalajara that WWE's RAW brand would be returning in May. The May tour is tentatively the 21st in Monterrey, the 22nd at Queretaro at the bull ring, and the 23rd and 24th at Palacio de Los Deportes in Mexico City.
- The latest in the Linda/Hulk divorce trial is her claim that the National Enquirer is set to publish a story very critical of her with allegations of heavy drinking and erratic behavior, and it is her belief that her husband is the man behind it all. They claim that Hogan is very close to the guy working on the story, and that Hulk referred to him as "my guy in the tabloids" and carries around a business card with the dude's name on it. Linda's side feels the article will be unfair and biased. Seriously, in the Enquirer. Is nothing sacred? They claim that at one point Linda, out of personal concern apparently that what her husband was saying was true, checked into the Betty Ford Clinic, but was then found to be without issues and sent home after a week. "It is a shame her husband and his lawyer think they can use the same forceful tactics in the legal arena that he uses in the entertainment arena, but Mrs. Bollea will not play that game," her lawyer said. So yes, this one is going to get even more messy.
