The Big Show is expected to make his return to WWF television after knee surgery in about two weeks or so. As of now, there is no word on what his role will be in the WWF, but it should be good to have the big man back. I have a feeling things could get interesting now that Kane and the Undertaker are back full time.
The WWF has opened an official site for the table loving freaks, the Dudley Boyz. You can check it out at WWFDudleyBoyz.com. Thanks to JBbomber69 for sending that along.
Tori has been working with a separated shoulder, according to Jim Ross, and she may be out of action for at least two weeks or so. However, she still took the powerbomb by the Dudleys through a table at the King of the Ring, even with the separated shoulder. That's one difference between the WWF and some wrestlers in WCW.
Here is this week's DirecTV Raw preview, which was actually correct last week when it predicted a "New WWF Champion" before the King of the Ring tournament took place. Thanks to Sean Williams for sending this in.
- Hour 1: Mick Foley has something for The Rock
- Hour 2: Undertaker and Kane go for the gold

Super Crazy, who I believe has been experiencing several problems with his US work visa, has been unable to work in ECW as of late and as a result, has been wrestling in Mexico, according to Zach Arnold. Still no word on when Crazy is expected back in ECW.
In case you missed it on the main page, the Q&A; section will be re-opened and re-done by our own Corey Silvia, author of "Jerichoholics Anonymous," which debuted a couple of days ago here on TPWW. For info on how you can send in your questions for the section, click HERE.
The newest member of the TPWW staff, Rob Harvey made his debut today with his column "Ticking Time Bomb.". In it, Rob talks about the ECW Arena and some of the best memories from recent years.
News is admittedly and obviously scarce today, so I'm going to wrap this one up. But hey, before I go, here's a recommended song to download for all you MP3 fans: Eminem - Hellbound. Both myself and "The" Nick can't stop listening to it. Good stuff. Anyway, that should hopefully do for today's report. Until next time...
