The April 2009 issue of WWE Magazine has been sent out to subscribers and will appear on newsstands soon. In the latest issue they have a new interview online with Evan Bourne in which provides two interesting comments. One comment, Bourne hints that WWE plans to resume his feud with Mike Knox (something I had heard when he was originally injured) despite speaking in-character and how he was never told the Shooting Star Press was banned from WWE and when he started doing it, he was encouraged to continue. Below are the comments:
WWE Magazine: Other than polishing your Slammy Award for Best Finisher, how did you occupy your time while recovering from last October's injury?
Evan Bourne: That's a huge issue, because I don't even have my Slammy Award. Mike Knox walked off with it. You don't touch another man's girl, and you don't take his Slammy Award. All my friends have asked me, “Where's the Slammy? How come it's not on your mantel?” So not only do I hate Mike Knox, but so do all my friends and family. He crossed the line. Beating him up will be a top priority when I return.
WWE Magazine: How the heck did you convince the WWE brass to allow you to perform the once-banned move [referring to the Shooting Star Press]?
Evan Bourne: Honestly, when I signed my contract with WWE, there was no mention that the move was banned. I did the maneuver all over Japan, so when I got to WWE, I wanted to use it. It's my specialty. Once I showed them how I perform it, I was encouraged to use it.

having never seen him do the move, I will say with complete certainty that I am sure Brocks shooting star press was better. Nothing can compare to a 260lb man landing on his head from the other side of the ring.
