Swagger's New Theme, D-X Note, Ref Taking Time Off, TNA Pissed At Angle, More
? Keiji "The Great Muta" Muto, wrestling legend and president of All Japan Pro Wrestling, is talking with potential sponsors for the company as they are having a hard time financially and there are rumors of a sale.
? Mike Pettit sent the following: Me and my buddies pretty much knew when we took our seats last night at the Target Center that DX would be in the house. WWE had new DX t-shirts out on display and when we sat down by the entrance they already had the DX pyro setup. Not only my group of friends but others around us were talking about it too.
? Several readers sent word that Jack Swagger's current theme on ECW is the one that Jamie Noble used to use when he was paired up with Nidia.
? I can confirm that TNA officials were actually outraged when they found out Kurt Angle made the comments he did concerning creative's ideas for the company. Although the Jarrett angle Thursday night is a work, it is being drawn from a certain amount of reality that the company maintains. TNA management were pretty pissed off at the actual comments that were made.
WWE referee Marty Elias is taking a few weeks off following surgery on Thursday, September 18 for a ruptured hernia. He will be out for at least 6 weeks to heal and rehab. Elias posted a blog on his WWE Universe account to set any rumors straight from "inside websites" reporting on his absence, although I don't believe anyone has reported about it as this is the first I've heard of him being gone. Elias wrote: "The reason for this blog is to set any rumors straight and or "inside websites" ASS-U-MING they know what"s going on? I had surgery on September 18th for a ruptured hernia and will be off 6-weeks min to heal and rehab." He also added: "The hernia was found over five years ago, but I continued working with it, because I love what i do!! I would still be working if the hernia had not ruptured. I will be back, that's for sure!! Im happy I finally had surgery, it is over and I can live and work pain free. I can only recommend this, but if you are injured or living with pain, take care of it ASAP."
