Jim Ross posted the following on Twitter after The Rock announced he would be the host of WrestleMania: "If seeing the Rock impact Raw doesn?t make 1 want 2 see WM27 then ur not a fan. Need 2 check ur pulse. Rock?s performance was epic. Awesome."

According to a strong WWE source, discussion has started about the planned next season of NXT. One idea being tossed around is to have a father/son theme with so many sons of former stars currently in developmental. This would include families such as Rotunda, Steamboat, DiBiase, Brisco, etc.

The Los Angeles Times on Wednesday had a story on the 50 coolest athletes in Southern California history. The top five were Sandy Koufax, Magic Johnson, Johnny Weismuller, Gorgeous George and Billie Jean King. You can read the story by clicking here.

In the middle of his promo, The Corre came out and then all the faces came out for the save.

Ric Flair was scheduled for the "TNA iMPACT!" television tapings last night (Monday) and tonight (Tuesday) in Orlando, FL reports The Wrestling Observer.

The Iron Sheik underwent successful surgery last week in Fayetteville, GA. The operation was to fuse his ankle that had been causing him discomfort for some time. Initially scheduled for four hours, the operation actually took nine hours to complete due to the severity of damage surgeons discovered. Sheik will also be undergoing knee surgery at some point in the near future.

Gail Gagne, granddaughter of Verne Gagne and daughter of Greg Gagne, agreed last week to have her court case decided by a judge instead of a jury trial. Ms. Gagne is accused of having sex with a high school football player in September 2008 while she was a teacher at Cretin-Durham Hall High School in St. Paul, MN. Under the agreement, one count of third-degree criminal sexual conduct against Gagne was dropped, and a second count was reduced from a third- to fifth-degree felony, making it a gross misdemeanor. If convicted she would be put on probation for two years with an order that she have no contact with the student, who is now in college. Also under the agreement, prosecutor Judith Hawley will prepare a statement of the facts in the case and she, Gail Gagne and Gagne's attorney, Earl Gray, will sign it and submit it to Judge Richard Scherer on Wednesday. A sentencing hearing is set for March 28 if she's convicted. Such an arrangement reflects a "very high likelihood'' that Gagne will be found guilty, said Prof. Joseph Daly of Hamline University Law School.

On tonight's episode of "Tosh.0", host Daniel Tosh takes gives a web redemption to "Crying Wrestling Fan". The "Crying Wrestling Fan" was seen on a video from an NWA Fanfest crying and saying "It?s still real to me". Tosh dresses as The Ultimate Warrior. Sgt. Slaughter is also scheduled to appear in the segment. To view the preview clip, click here. The show airs on Comedy Central. Check local listings for times in your area.

The Des Moines Register on Sunday had a old-time photo of the week of "Strangler" Ed Lewis. You can view the photo by clicking here.

Donny Brooks announced he was done as a referee. He announced it on his Facebook page this past Sunday stating " It is no longer fun, and if it's not fun it's not worth doing."

Oklafan would like to congratulate Se7en, who surpassed 6 months as ComPro Oklahoma X Division Champion on February 14th. He defeated The Canadian Luchadore for the title on August 14, 2010 in a Triple Threat Match that also included Sam Stackhouse at a show in Tulsa.

Oklafan would like to congratulate J. R. Orullian, who surpassed 6 months as NCW North American Champion on February 14th. He defeated Mr. Big to become 1st ever champion on August 14, 2010 at a show in Marble City.

Oklafan congratulates Bud Guffey on the birth of his nephew Caiden Lee Robinette, who was born last Wednesday.

Oklafan sends its condolences to Jerry Lawler, who's mother Hazel passed away on February 13th at the age of 90.

Jerry Lawler posted on Twitter earlier Monday evening: "I want to thank everyone for all your concern, thoughts, & prayers during this trying time ? I?m sorry to miss Raw tonight. My WWE family has been great to me. More at WWE.com. Thanks again for your kind words."

Jim Ross posted the following on Twitter: "Condolences to my dear friend Jerry Lawler for the loss of his beloved Mom @ age 90. Services are Wed morning @ 10."
