DAILY NEWS ON WWF: "Wrestling Pins Down A Record"
===================================================
Rather than the whole article, some clips...
"In what may be the surest sign of the apoclypse"
"the largest audience for a regularly scheduled entertainment program in the history of cable television"
"6,156,000 homes tuned in"
"No other regularly scheduled entertainment program has ever been seen in that many homes"
"Not South Park...Not Beavis & Butthead"
"The highest rating ever for the USA Network"
"Clearly reaped the benefit of TNT's shelving of it's wrestling show"

=====================
BACKSTAGE NWO NEWS
=====================
There is some heat on The NWO Black and White. Some in the locker room don't see why they are
being pushed, not to mention the usual heat on Brian Adams and Scott Norton or being stiff or not
selling in the ring. Things got worse a few weeks ago at a Nitro event when members of Black and
White refused to sell to Kevin Nash.

The Wolfpac is expected to be reformed after the reunion between Kevin Nash and Konnan a few
weeks ago on Nitro. Members being thrown around to be added to the group are Konnan, Nash, Rey
Mysterio, Jr., and Scott Hall, although Hall (along with a list of several other wrestlers) may join a
revamped Four Horsemen. Sting and Randy Savage are not expected to re-join The Wolfpac.
Speaking of Konnan, some have heat with him because they see him as a Nash suck-up.
Bam Bam Bigelow suffered a seperated shoulder at the Slamboree PPV to go along with an
already injured elbow. Bigelow will likely miss time because of the injuries. He was having
problems using an ATM Machine because of the injuries.

Chris Jericho will have medical release to wrestle again in less than two weeks. At this time
no word on whether WCW will have Chris return to the ring without a contract extension
signed.

Current Four Horsemen Dean Malenko and Chris Benoit recently denied participating in a
Four Horsemen photo session. They questioned whether there would be a group for much
longer. Both have requested an extended tour in New Japan. And Malenko has said in the
past his last career match will take place in Japan.
Thanks to Chad Damiani.
* Howdy folks. Sorry I have not delivered too many solid reports the last few days. I am
finishing up the semester of college and things couldn't be more hectic. The major story still is
the awesome ratings the WWF put up Monday night. An 8.1 is an incredible rating. Its hard
to say wrestling is not at its all time high right now.

* I am awaiting confirmation on this, but it appears Shane Douglas turned down an initial
waver offer by the WWF but is strongly considering a new deal offered to him by the WWF
which is up in the $400,000 range. WWF wants Douglas as a heel (mainly to feud with
Austin one would guess). There also is going to be an effort to get Francine under contract
when legally possible. If what Francine still thinks the same way about the WWF as she did
six months ago when I last spoke with her I would imagine she is still strongly against leaving
ECW (then again Douglas said the same thing less than a month ago).

* Tammy Sytch might very soon be showing up on WCW tv. No offer has yet to be made to
Sytch that I know of but it appears there is very strong interest on both ends to get Sytch into
WCW. WCW will likely make Sytch an offer as soon as they are sure they can legally do so.
Sytch's ECW contract was for five years but the contract might be waved by Heyman if
Sytch asks for her release. If he refuses, Sytch may have the contract terminated legally if she
has had a check bounced or if she has been owed a sum of money (like many of the other
ECW workers).

* The WCW hotline was saying WCW was interested in Yokozuna and Sid. Last time I saw
Yokozuna a few months back he was way out of shape. WCW bringing Yoko in could be a
huge risk if he were to ever have a heart attack during or after a match (which is one of the
many reasons why we have not seen Yokozuna on WWF tv since 1996). Another problem
with Yokozuna is WCW would have to create a new name for him since the WWF owns the
Yokozuna "character". As far as Sid goes, it is always possible. As I reported recently, Sid is
much more closer to returning to the WWF, yet he makes it no secret he would much rather
go back to WCW where he got his first big break. Kevin Nash has openly stated that if he
had the power he would get Sid under contract.

* You want T&A? Showdown.net is getting ready to launch their brand new Females
section... I will have more info in an upcoming report (I saw a sneak peak and the site is
HOT!). Don't forget to check out the online magazine with the revealing Tammy Sytch
pictures at Showdown.net right now!
 
WWF NEWS
RAW IS WAR TAPING, AIR-DATE: 5/17

The Godfather and Val Venis defeated Jeff Jarrett and The Blue Blazer.
Average tag match. Nicole Bass distracted Jeff Jarrett and Debra, as The Godfather hit the Pimp Drop on
the Blazer for the pin.

D'Lo Brown, Billy Gunn, and Mark Henry vs. Road Dogg, X-Pac, Kane went to a No-Contest after both
teams had great six-man tag team action and it all spilled out in the crowd.

Corporate Ministry Interview.
Shane said that the first man he wanted to take down tonight was his father Vince McMahon.

Vince McMahon, Gerald Brisco, and Pat Patterson were in the back worried because The Union hadn't
shown up. They tried walking out the door but it was locked. Vince went into the closet for protection but
The Undertaker and Triple H met him. The Undertaker choked him and the lights went out and screams
were heard. Later Vince was stretched into an ambulance.

Test defeated Meat by Disqualification.
Boring match. As Test was going for the pump-handle slam, Jacqueline dropkicked him from the top
causing the Disqualification. Ryan Shamrock was with P.M.S. Tori came out after and acted as friends
with P.M.S., but turned on them and beat all three ladies down. Test and her exchanged words.

Stone Cold Steve Austin Interview.
The Corporate Ministry came out during the interview and was about to hunt Austin down when Ken
Shamrock came from behind and was choking Shane McMahon. Once the Corporate Ministry saw this,
they beat on Shamrock. The rest of The Union came out and a brawl ensued. Meanwhile, in the ring,
Austin had Paul Bearer hostage. He was looking at The Undertaker, wondering if he would do anything.
After a few seconds he gave Paul the Stunner to a huge pop and taunted the fat man.

The Undertaker defeated The Rock in a Casket Match.
The Rock was in control until Triple H interfered and helped The Undertaker throw The Rock into the
casket. Triple H then grabbed a sledgehammer and continuously banged it on the casket, breaking holes
in several places. Much to the applause of Shane McMahon.

The Brood vs. Dok Hendrix and The Hardy Boyz went to a No-Contest.
It seemed Dok Hendrix and The Hardy Boyz had formed a Freebirds like stable. Great match. The
Hardyz look to be getting a push and it's about damn time. Dok looked very good in the ring and the
match was very entertaining. All six men ended up brawling outside and as soon as you knew it we were
on to the next segment.

Al Snow Interview.
Al Snow performed a funeral, so to speak, for Pierre, his dear head. Snow said since Pierre had passed
he was now the true Hardcore Champion. He was very emotional. Very funny skit with several of Pierre's
favorite items used. Hardcore Holly came out only to get knocked out with the Head. Snow used the
Snow plow on Holly and left.

The Big Show beat The Big Bossman in a squash.

Stone Cold Steve Austin and Triple H went to a No-Contest, to let Austin retain the Heavyweight Title.
Brawl all over the arena. The AMERICAN announcers table was used thoroughly throughout the match.
Austin has Triple H ready for the Stunner when The Undertaker symbol, which was hanging from the top
of the Arena, made it's way down. The Undertaker came down and was about to sacrifice Austin when
The Union made the save, fighting off the entire Corporate Ministry, including Triple H. This left Austin
and The Undertaker alone, with Austin taking advantage of the The Undertaker. Austin beat The
Undertaker up, until he couldn't move, tied him to the symbol, and The Undertaker was lifted to the top of
the arena to end the show.
 
ANY INFO OF BOTH ARE ANY THAT DOESN'T APPLY
You have heard rumors in the past about a possible All WWF Valet Playboy. Sable is supposed to be
having another Playboy shoot sometime very soon, but thats been confirmed by Sable herself.
[email protected] is reporting that his sources are telling him that there is a signed deal, and that in the
near future there will be a Playboy featuring Sable, Chyna, and Debra McMichael. This magazine would
have bio's on all of the woman and of course naked photo's. There are still more rumors floating around
about Terri and Jacqueline also being in the Playboy. Playboy magazine has shown interest in doing
more work with the WWF considering that the Sable Playboy was the most successful Playboy in 15
years.
