 | This week's updates (2/22) Check out a little of what's new this week at The History of WWE. For those who enjoyed my recent interview with Bruno Sammartino, check back in the coming weeks for another big interview. Yesterday, I spoke for over an hour with someone closely associated with the NWA/WCW during the late 80s into the mid 90s. As a clue - something I didn't know until he told me - he also worked behind the scenes for the WWF. But only to help promote WrestleMania. FYI: I'll also be in Asheville, NC this afternoon for a Raw house show. Looks like both world champs are doing the tour of Mexico but I should be in for a good Cena vs. Orton match. Check back for photos and details from the show.
