Draft Lottery rumored for next week, WWE Corporate notes, WM game
On Monday, April 11, 2005 at 3:20 PM EST Adam Lebow sent in the following items...
* Yesterday's Chicago Sun-Times has any article by BlackJack Brown on the forthcoming Draft that will occur NEXT week, April 18 at the Supershow at Madison Square Gardens. The article speculates on some of the candidates to be moved and how the draft will probably be improved quality wise compared to last year's. The article also notes WWE will be bringing back Saturday Night Main Event in the forthcoming months on NBC. The article is available here.
* I was snooping around again today over at the WWE Corporate site and found that they have a very nice looking Contact site showing how to get in contact with WWE at its different Headquarters. On the site, it gives contact information for Press on Deadlines, how to get Credentials for backstage access, etc. Interesting, they again say they don't take in scripts, ideas, etc, but they list a phone number to call along with it this time. HMMM...it reads as follows: Please do not send or e-mail any ideas/proposals for storylines, character development, scripts, marketing or business operations. WWE, Inc., does not consider or review these materials. 203-352-8600.
* The Del Rio News-Hearld has a fluff piece that was published today in its paper available here. It pretty much goes over the storylines for the last week in both WWE/TNA and the new USA deal.
* 1UP.com has had a chance to preview the forthcoming WWE Wrestlemania 21 game for the XBOX. It appears as if this game will be a total rehaul of the source code and will be nothing like the last two RAW brand games. Career mode looks to be the focal point but there are still some kinks before the game goes public that need to be worked out, such as guys doing run-ins and attacking the wrong guy!
