The Scoop

The Scoop

Posted: Mar 23rd 2010 By: mikeiles

NEWS
Bill Goldberg will be inducted into The National Jewish Sports Hall of Fame on April 18th in Commack, NY. Goldberg is being inducted as a football player, not a wrestler.

The word going around this past week is that Jim Ross would be announcing at WrestleMania XXVI along with Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler. Ross noted on his Twitter that he was attending WrestleMania as a fan and wasn't aware as yet that he would be calling any action. Keep in mind final announcing assignments are often not told to people until the day of the show, so anything is possible.

In his latest blog update, Bret Hart said that he's looking forward to being part of WrestleMania XXVI and is "totally pumped up" to be wrestling Vince McMahon on the show. This will be Bret's first WrestleMania appearance since 1997 at WrestleMania XIII where he wrestled - and won - against Steve Austin. Speaking of Austin, Bret added that it was great to meet him on RAW again last week and also had a long talk with Kevin Dunn and Pat Patterson. "WrestleMania, here I come!" he said, adding that he will not let the fans down come Sunday night.

A. J. Styles was sporting a replica of the TNA World Title at "Destination X", such as one you can purchase from TNA's merchandise web site. The actual belt is banged up.

Ric Flair is happy to be a spotlight heel in TNA, reports the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. Flair has told friends that he is as happy as he's been in the business in years. Flair feels he can have one more top-level match with Kurt Angle. Speaking of Flair, son Reid Fliehr is expected to be present at some future TNA Impact tapings.

TNA Wrestling announced "An Evening with the Legends" as part of their TNA Fan InterAction event which will start at 10AM on Saturday, April 17 at the Ameristar Casino in St. Charles, MO. The Legends part will kick off at 6pm that day and Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair, Sting, Dory Funk, Jr., Bobby Heenan, Baron Von Raschke, and Jimmy Hart will all be in attendance. The company is selling a package for $299 which will include admission to the Legends event, VIP admission to the Fan InterAction, entry to the PPV building escorted by The Beautiful People thirty minutes before the doors open, discounted merchandise, free photos taken with Funk, Heenan, Von Raschke, and Hart as well as an opportunity to get two items signed from each Legend and a 16x20 poster of Hogan, Flair and Sting that can also be signed. The $299 price does not include tickets to the pay-per-view the next day, which must be purchased separately.

RF Video will be releasing a new DVD entitled "In the Ring with Al Snow". You can view a preview by clicking here. You can order it on their website at RFVideo.com.

Tyler Black recently did an interview to build up Friday's Ring of Honor show in Dearborn, MI. He was asked about the other champions. He said he looks up to and has great respect for A. J. Styles, that Chris Jericho is a pioneer and has had 20 great years in wrestling and he doesn't think much of Batista. He wouldn't choose between Styles and Jericho as the best. You can read the entire interview by clicking here.

Seth Allen has begun forming his own branch of T. M. S. in the Cleveland, OH area.

412PE is reporting that Running Wolf is injured, although how severe the injury is, or whether it occurred in his match with 412PE Champion Tex last Saturday is not being revealed at this time.
