Big Show was told that he was staying heel after WrestleMania to work a title program with Undertaker. Another storyline idea being tossed around is a Big Show vs. Great Khali program, although that probably won't be taking place until later in the year.

Devin Cutting sent in the following... WWE returns to the Mississippi Coliseum in Jackson, Mississippi on September 14th, 2008. This will be the first WWE event in Jackson since the summer of 2006. Go to http://www.prowrestlingevents.tk for information about upcoming shows.

A while ago, WWE had a storyline idea where Gary Hart (who passed away last week) would form a heel stable called 'Black Friday Management' with Umaga as the main star. The stable would have had a criminal vibe as Hart would be dressed with a mob style business suit. Also, the plan was for him to be independent of WWE on television, and he'd be presented as a recruiter of international talent for the company. They also wanted him to be accompanied by an Asian girl based on the Catholic School Girl assassin character in the movie Kill Bill. The entire storyline plan never got off the ground because Hart angered Vince McMahon back in 1989. When John "Earthquake" Tenta was starting out in WWE, they had plans to use Gary Hart as his manager. On the day of Hart's scheduled WWE debut, he showed up at the airport in the city of his debut taping, but no one from the company came to pick him up. When someone finally did, he arrived to the arena mad about his treatment. Hart got into an argument with a road agent and left the building, pretty much bailing on WWE. A few days later, an upset McMahon called Hart, noting he bought him a plane ticket to come to work. Hart reacted by saying that he would send him a check for the ticket. Hart sent the check, but McMahon never cashed it in. Also, in recent years there were some feelers sent out to him about working with the developmental wrestlers, or helping out on the creative team. Hart would answer them by saying that he wouldn't last a month in the company. However, he had expressed interest in recent years about joining WWE as a manager. People on creative such as Dusty Rhodes, Michael Hayes and Court Bauer would remark at times that The Great Khali or Umaga would be much more effective if they had Hart as the mouthpiece.

Former WWE Diva Jackie Gayda was briefly shown in the audience during Saturday night's WWE Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony telecast. Of course, Gayda is the wife of WWE Raw star Charlie Haas.

WWE has plans to release another DVD on Ric Flair on July 8. Amazon.com has a landing page on the product for the upcoming DVD. There are absolutely no details on it yet as all it says is "Ric Flair."
