More On The Future Of SD!, Major Foley Announcement Tomorrow

? A major announcement regarding Mick Foley is expected tomorrow by THE GILLESPIE AGENCY, INC. That is the company that books Legends Mick Foley, Roddy Piper and Ric Flair. Keep in mind that TNA is in New York City including the Manhattan Center/Hammerstein Ballroom this weekend so we'll see where things go. Mick lives in New York and is available to work immediately. He does not have a 90 day no compete clause as his WWE contract expired.

? WWE Smackdown's move to MyNetworkTV this fall may not be as bad as originally perceived just a few months ago. Last week, MyNetwork without WWE averaged a 1.0 rating in primetime and 1.64 million viewers. In comparison, The CW Network with Smackdown averaged a 1.1 rating with 1.62 million viewers. So it appears MyNetwork is going from what many considered a sinking network to a rising network and with the addition of Smackdown in the fall, which has been the highest rated show on The CW since rerun season started and one of the highest during the regular season, it will mean a huge plus for MyNetwork. WWE also got a much better money deal signing with MyNetwork as well.

? The UFC announcement (expected to be Couture vs. Lesnar) will take place at 4EST today. They moved it back from 3EST to 4EST due to 'scheduling conflicts'.
