- Jim Cornette, who was recently let go by WWE from his role as OVW booker, will be on Between The Ropes tonight. In what should be a highly entertaining interview, Cornette, is expected to discuss his release from WWE as well as his upcoming appearance at the NWA Legends Convention. This should be a good one; I know I will be checking it out.

- Former ECW stars, Danny Doring and Roadkill were backstage at the Smackdown taping last night. While Roadkill wasn’t used at all, Doring appeared during the taping of Velocity. This isn’t the first time that WWE has used the two during dark matches and at TV since ECW One Night Stand back in June.

- The story floating around television this week is that Marty Wright who plays The Boogeyman character hyper extended both of his knees working house shows this past weekend. There is no word yet if Wright (who is said to be a stiff worker and has roughed up a few workers because of his inexperience) will miss any ring time as he was walking around backstage at the tapings without a limp.
