Random News From The Wrestling World
Fire Scare During Mania & List Of Stars At Ringside
Story By: Douglas Nunnally
According to an article in The Detroit News today, there
was a backstage scare during Kane's entrance as his pyro
created a fire behind the entrance ramp. The fire was
extinguished eventually (while Kane & Khali's match was
going on), but it was said to be a major frenzy backstage
after this happened considering some of the pyro that
would later go on, most notably the big pyro display they
had planned for Undertaker.
In the same article, there was a small list of celebrities
that were seated around ringside which were Bill Ford Jr.
(Ford Motor Co. Executive Chairman), Chris Webber (Detroit
Pistons), Curtis Granderson (Detroit Tigers), Brandon Inge
(Detroit Tigers), Joel Zumaya (Detroit Tigers [& was wear-
ing ear plugs apparently]), Pudge Rodriguez (Detroit
Tigers), Rev. Run (Run DMC), Thomas Hearns (Boxer), Katie
Blair (Miss Teen USA), Rachel Smith (Miss USA), and Zuleyka
Rivera (Miss Universe).

Reader's Forum
To the person asking about the Lawler/Hogan match: It's
true. They are going to have a match at a legends show in
Memphis on April 27th. It's going to be at the Midsouth
Coliseum (reopening for "one night only") and I'm consider-
ing going. They've been hinting at it/promoting it for the
last few weeks on the weekly Memphis Wrestling program.
Hogan must not be taking his usual paycheck that he
requests, because there's no way that the Memphis wrestling
scene is pulling that kind of money in right now. Maybe the
tickets are $100 a person. Let's see, maybe a 1000 will
show up, Hogan will probably want at least 10% of the gate,
so that'd give him $10,000. Doubt he'd go for that. Lol,
maybe that's where all the money from the recent Memphis
utility scandal is really going... to pay Hogan to let us
watch him no-sell Lawler's offence. :(

Pass the ketchup, and my bib, I am here to eat crow. My
predication for W. Mania and the bald billionaires was
a wee off. Hell I missed the whole boat. I will keep my
"predictions" off the web and just espouse them to my
drinking buddies. The upside of being wrong is that maybe
this will keep Vince off television for awhile. We can
only hope and pray right? Maybe the story line writers
plan to team him and Eugene together ala Basham Brothers
lol.

Ben, you are worse than Donald Trump with not knowing
both Lashleys and Umagas names. Seriously if you called
yourself a fan you would know their names. And yes I saw
Wrestlemania and Vince did in fact get his head shaved.
I think you are as much of a fan of WWE as Donald Trump
is.
