» For those who might have missed our report on it yesterday, during Saturday night’s replay of Raw on the Universal HD channel, the graphic promoting the 25-Diva Battle Royal at WrestleMania XXV was shown once again, but with two WWE Divas removed. The two Divas removed from the original graphic shown on Monday were Gail Kim and Candice Michelle. Regarding Gail Kim, she will likely be appearing in the match anyway, however, she has yet to make her official return to the ring. Kim will be making her television return to the company on this week’s edition of SmackDown, which was taped this past Tuesday. This definitely looks to be a flub on WWE’s part. As far as Candice Michelle is concerned, it appears as though that she has been pulled from the match altogether, and will be missing WrestleMania for the second year in a row due to injury. Candice has been sitting on the sidelines the past few weeks due to an ankle injury she suffered during a recent training session. According to the Raw script sheet leaked a few weeks ago, Candice was scheduled to be cleared from her injury this past Wednesday. Considering her image was removed from the graphic, it looks like her injury has not completely healed and company officials have called off plans on featuring the former Playboy cover girl in the match. As a result of Candice’s apparent removal from the match, this opens up an extra spot for another WWE Diva from the past to appear.
» As reported earlier, Triple H will be wrestling Randy Orton and Ted DiBiase in a Handicap Match tonight on Raw. The match was briefly advertised as Triple H vs. Ted DiBiase and Cody Rhodes before it was quickly changed.
» John Cena has been interviewed by several major newspapers regarding his new movie, 12 Rounds, including The Boston Herald. In this interview, Cena talks about his father being one of the first people in his region to get cable television. As a result, they were able watch a ton of wrestling from various promotions. “My dad was one of the first in our region to buy cable, so we’d get all the affiliates,” Cena said. “The old WWF, which was Captain Lou Albano and Hulk Hogan. He’d get AWA, which was the Baron Von Raschkes and the Gagnes. He’d get World Class Wrestling Championship, which was the Fritz Von Erichs and the Freebirds. He’d get NWA, which was the Four Horsemen and Dusty Rhodes. We got everything, even got the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling.”
