— Florida Championship Wrestling will have several appearances and autograph signings by WWE stars during the summer. Matt Hardy, Ted DiBiase Sr., Irwin R. Shyster/Mike Rotunda, Dusty Rhodes, Goldust and Cody Rhodes will all be a part of the signings during the summer. There will also be a very rare appearance by The Undertaker.
— Mike sent word that Triple H was shown before the Floyd Mayweather vs. Shane Mosley fight this past Saturday night.
— Dos Caras worked the weekend RAW live events losing to Primo Colon.
— Joe Evans sent this one along: At yesterday’s house show in Knoxville, TN, an elderly woman was ejected from the show after slapping CM Punk. Joe Evens writes: “Punk was getting heat and this woman just walked up to him, told him he wasn’t Jesus and wailed away with a hard slap. Punk smiled and told her he forgave her while security pulled her out of the show, then genuflected, making it even more insanely funny. The guy didn’t lose a step from it either.”
