A lot of buzz about Mickey Rourke possibly winning the Oscar this weekend. According to polls he is ahead 71%, beating out Sean Penn in Milk. If he does win, I can see Vince getting as much publicity out about Mickey being at WrestleMania.

Thanks to Colin Vassallo for this Rock update:
Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson has signed to star in the live-action version of
the popular cartoon 'The Adventures Of Jonny Quest'. The former WWE champ
will be playing the role of Race Bannon, a special agent who is hired by
Jonny's dad to be his son's bodyguard. "I don't know if you've read the
latest [draft] but it's awesome and it's badass and I...hadn't read an
action script like that in a long time. And that action was unbelievable.
That will happen," said Johnson while talking to Moviehole.net. Zac Efron is
reportedly being chased to play the role of Johnny Quest. Andy Fickman, who
worked with The Rock on 'Race to Witch Mountain' and 'The Game Plan' will
direct the movie.

OMG, I knew this would go for BIG bucks but not this much, especially with the recession. I was wrong, when someone wants something bad enough, there is no limiit.
Now I see it going for more than $1,000.

The Return 5 years in the making NWA 3/13 Roselle, NJ: The Franchise Returns The man known as the Franchise is returning to pro wrestling after a five year absence and he has chosen The NWA to make his return. The last time Shane Douglas was in the NWA it was in August of 1994, Shane fought 2 Cold Scorpio in the tournament finals to determine the new NWA World Champion, which wrestlers from a number of promotions competed in including ECW. Shane overcame Scorpio with a belly-to-belly suplex. After the match, the new champion grabbed the mic, and gave credit to all the past NWA champions: Ric Flair, Dusty Rhodes, Harley Race, and Kerry Von Erich. Then he invited them all to kiss his ASS. He threw the belt down, proclaiming it meant nothing to him. And then announced the death of the NWA. He then grabbed the ECW World Title belt and proclaimed it to be an "official" World Title. Well we all know that the NWA took years to recover from this and many in the NWA have not forgotten what he did to the company. On Friday The 13th of March at Abraham Clark High school in Roselle, NJ Shane Douglas will be facing former ECW colleague and 2 time WWE and 2 time ECW cruiser weight champion Little Guido. More info will be made available later this week but for now
