WWE
Super Crazy has quit, telling friends he was “happy with the money but was unhappy with the job he was doing.” The WWE issued its typical release notice in response. (PW)

Low Ki/Senshi worked a dark match before the SD/ECW tapings, losing to Primo Colon. It is rumoured that should he sign with the WWE, he would be working a feud with Rey Mysterio. (PW)
Rey Mysterio and MVP were some of the wrestlers pushing for Low Ki’s tryout with WWE. (WV)

This is an interesting tidbit:
QUOTE
Edge was backstage at RAW this week and SmackDown but did not return to TV as speculated before. No word yet on why they're waiting so long to bring him in, but if it has something to do with Christian Cage coming in, that makes sense. The original plan was to keep Edge off TV until The Undertaker was into another feud because they didn't want to do Taker/Edge anymore. With Taker in a feud with Big Show right now, it seems like they would have brought him back already.
(PW)
Jillie’s Note: WHAT!? Since when is it being rumoured that Cage is returning to the WWE!? What did I miss!?

Brian Gewirtz is behind the push to bring Goldust back to the WWE, with the idea that he could add more comedy to the show. (PW)

After the third quarter earnings for the WWE were down, the COO Mike Sileck has resigned. (PW)

In a conference call, Linda McMahon said that non-wrestling programming is more of a competition than TNA. (PW)

The word backstage is that all sides have agreed that Mike Adamle is “not cut our for the business,” and will be finished with the company for now. (PW)

Mae Young would like us to know that she is fine after her match on Monday. (WV)

Tribute to the Troops will be held in Baghdad this year, and will be a one hour special on NBC on Saturday, December 20 at 9pm EST. (WV)

Natalie Niedhart (Natalya), Harry Smith and TJ Wilson have been teamed up at FCW (with Natalya as their manager), in the hopes that they will be successful as a team. (WV)

Chuck Palumbo, with his WWE contract almost expired, is looking at working with Johnny Stamboli in AAA or Mark Jindrak at CMLL (WV)

WWE will return to Europe, via Belgium, in November of 2009. (WV)

If you were hoping to get WM tickets in the $755, $250 or $40 brackets, you are out of luck, thanks to pre-sales. (WV)


TNA
After the release of Disco Inferno and Simon Diamond, some are nervous backstage at TNA that more cuts could be coming. (WV)

Check out the Final Resolution poster here: http://indemand.com/product/view/100664htt...uct/view/100664 and see if you can spot the spoilers!! (WV)

Awesome Kong’s contract is up, and, when she tried to hold out for more money, she received a “major tongue lashing.” (G)

Sting's Main Event Mafia look is totally bad-ass. I need to start watching TNA again, I really feel like I'm missing out.

Jillie - November 7, 2008 07:40 PM (GMT)
If I do say so myself, TNA is really fun right now, minus this stupid Bashir-Rhino feud. For some reason I have always liked big stables warring against each other like this, even though the young'uns are not in an official stable. The women's division is doing some fun things right now, as well.

JimBob Skeeter - November 7, 2008 08:50 PM (GMT)
I heard something a couple of weeks ago that Cage's contract was almost at an end and some were thinking he MAY be going back north again. Edge & Christian, together again. That would be very cool, indeed!

Diggin' the updates, JilliE!!!!!!!

SamoaRowe - November 7, 2008 08:53 PM (GMT)
I would be very interested to see what a Christian Cage return to WWE would be like. I'm wondering if he loses against Booker T at the next TNA pay-per-view, if he'd "quit TNA" on air rather than align himself with the Main Event Mafia.

Jillie - November 8, 2008 12:14 AM (GMT)
I am not interested in Cage returning to the WWE at all! The only reason I can see him wanting to do so is for the money, ala Gail Kim, but it's not going to help his career!

And thanks, JBS, but I've already voted against you. Your flattery won't work!! :P
