AAA out of Mexico will be holding a big event called TripleMania on June 13 at Los Palacio de los Deportes and they are trying to get Bobby Lashley & Bill Goldberg to work as a heel tag team at the show, reports the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. The event will feature talent from TNA and NOAH. AAA is trying to get the event on pay-per-view in the U.S. and their American contact is a big Goldberg fan. AAA plans on making a play for Goldberg, but Goldberg has said in the past that he's retired. Lashley is actually open to the idea of teaming up with Goldberg. Right now, Lashley is training for MMA. He recently signed with Zinkin Entertainment Co., an organization that manages a bunch of MMA fighters.

Internet reports of Joey Styles' departure from the ECW broadcast table were confirmed as it was announced at the top of tonight's show that Styles would be leaving the program in favor of a job heading up WWE.com. Styles said he's going to deliver more of what the fans want on the website. Styles introduced Mike Adamle as the new play-by-play man for ECW. Styles called the action during the first segment, but left the broadcast booth when they went to a commercial break.
