Devin Cutting sent this in: WWE developmental organizations Ohio Valley Wrestling and Deep South Wrestling have relaunched their official websites with new designs and content. The sites can be viewed at: www.ovwrestling.com & www.dswrestling.com.
Omega sent this in: SportsCenter this morning featured James Laurinaitis, son of Road Warrior Animal. Animal was featured in and out of paint with clips of James on the field and Animal in the ring, while both were interviewed about James growing up the son of a pro wrestling legend. It's mentioned that Vince McMahon had offered a place in WWE to James, but was declined in favor of his business degree.
Brandon also added with this: ESPN and other mainstream media have been doing stories about Ohio State middle linebacker James Laurinaitis, noting that being an "Animal" is in his blood. The ESPN segment actually featured James and Animal in the LOD spikes, doing the "what a rush" quote, and talking about growing up in that kind of household. For more, click here.
