? As noted earlier here on the website, after being let go by TNA, Glen "Disco Inferno" Gilbertti is currently working as a bouncer at Sapphire's, a Las Vegas strip club.

? Team 3D and Kevin Nash are said to be more excited about wrestling in general than they have been in a long time due to the Main Event Mafia vs. Frontline theme in TNA. Scott Steiner is also said to be having a great time in TNA.

? Dixie Carter is telling people that she was misquoted several times in her Waxman report testimony for the congress investigation on steroids in wrestling.

? New Japan is working hard to improve relations with TNA in hopes that they could run title matches in the US, to be broadcast in Japan. Yujiro and Tetsuya Naito are currently learning English so that they can come to the US for an extended stay. The goal would be for them to feud over the IWGP JR. tag titles with The Machine Guns.

? New Japan is also hoping that Team 3-D will defend the IWGP tag team titles in TNA.
