— Ted DiBiase made his first television appearance since February 24 on Friday’s episode of SmackDown!, losing to Rey Mysterio in a quick match. He was not the only RAW Superstar to compete on the show as Sheamus beat Intercontinental Champion Kofi Kingston in a Non-Title Match earlier in the broadcast. It’s interesting to note that a SmackDown! name plate was displayed during DiBiase’s ring entrance, whereas a Raw name plate was displayed when Sheamus made his entrance.
— WWE developmental wrestler Percy Watson is working this weekend’s SmackDown! live events. He beat Curt Hawkins last night in Roanoke, Virginia. Vince McMahon is said to be high on Watson these days.
— As noted earlier here on the website, Eddie Edwards, is the new World Champion of Ring of Honor. He captured the title at yesterday’s ROH show in New York City, vanquishing Roderick Strong’s six-month reign as champion. The title change had been planned for a while, but kept under wraps to all but a few people. Edwards’ next scheduled match is against ROH World Television Champion Christopher Daniels on April 1 in Atlanta, Georgia. Daniels captured the title from Edwards last December. Also, a big thanks to those of you who met up with us yesterday in New York City. You guys were all great and we hope to see you again on June 26th prior to the ROH event. Good times guys.
