Ric Flair was in Chicago on Saturday night for PCW. Didn't get a crowd number but there was a long line of people to pay $75 to get an autograph and photo. Flair spent less than five minutes in the ring speaking, and never mentioned his son Reid, who wasn't there although he had originally been advertised to make his debut on the card before it was canceled earlier in the week.

Ric Flair's interview on Comcast Tuesday night was a mess. The live feed was preempted by a Philadelphia Flyers game, and an 11pm replay had no audio.

Al Snow was a guest on "The Wrestle Guys" internet radio show on November 17th. To listen to the interview, click here.

Steve Williams was a guest on "Who's Slammin Who" on November 3rd and in the interview he gave a shout out to Asylum Championship Wrestling. You can listen to the entire podcast by clicking here.

B. Brian Blair lost his election a few weeks ago for County Commissioner in Hillsborough County (Tampa, FL).
