-As previously reported by WrestleView.com's Ryan Allen, Jamal was released from WWE. He was released for numerous reasons. His cocky attitude to WWE staff and wrestlers as well as carelessness in the ring resulting in injuries to his opponents made the WWE not want him in the company. His suspension earlier this year for threatening a police officer in a night club didn't help matters either.

The other half of 3 Minute Warning, Rosey, is said to be better behaved backstage and more careful in the ring so he wasn't released. 3 Minute Warning were previously known as The Island Boys in OVW before making their WWE debut.

-More has been learned about the divorce between Rena(Sable) and Marc Mero. The split happened due to Sable returning to the WWE. Marc Mero left the WWF on bad terms and was said to be upset that she joined the company again. WWE is more than pleased about the divorce as he has said many negative things about them and officials don't want Sable's opinion of the WWE to be affected by him.

-WWE didn't offer Bad Blood for free to all military personal, although every person in the military could get it without paying a cent. WWE said that only troops returning from active duty in Iraq could get the PPV at no charge, but had no way of verifying that every soldier who ordered the PPV just returned from war. All you needed to get the PPV for free was a military ID as the WWE doesn't have access to information on what soldiers were actually fighting in the war.
