BTW - I want to apologize to our readers, I have not listed the winners of tickets for the PWU show.  I have written to the company three times, and they have not gotten back to me, so I guess we can NOT give away those tickets that were promised to us.  I'm sorry.

Superstar Billy Graham sent me the link below on Lex Luger and his rehab in Shepherd Center:  90035855_luger1 From what I understand he owes his credit cards $78,000.  Times are difficult for everyone these days.

Thanks to Chris Cruise:

From an interview on a DC-area radio station Monday morning.
The website is www.EITMonline.com
Elliot: You know what cracks me up in the book? You talk about Shawn Michaels sitting in the corner [after the “Montreal Screwjob”] just wailing like a baby.
Bret Hart: Blubbering like a baby. And I remember going over and I thought… I should just go for a fifty-yard field goal right now. I really wanted to. And then I thought about drilling him because I knew he was in on it. I just could feel it. And I tapped him on the shoulder and I said, ‘Thanks for the match,’ and he shook my hand and broke into tears… but you know, both Shawn and Hunter… swore to god on camera that they had nothing to do with any of that. And Shawn’s this Christian today; and in his book, he wrote that Vince took a dive and that I never even hit him and I thought, ‘This guy is such a liar.’ I wonder what kind of Christian he is…
Elliot: So you don’t send him Christmas cards regularly?
Bret Hart: No. I’ve never seen him since.
Elliot: Really? You haven’t seen him at all since then?
Bret Hart: No. And I hope I never do… for his sake.

I was just informed that the Luger link isn't working, here it is below:

 

Joey Ivansco/AJC

Luger, a former pro wrestler known as 'The Total Package, ' is now in rehab at the Shepherd Center to regain use of his limbs -- unable to even lift a 1-pound barbell -- after a spinal injury last fall that paralyzed him.

 

Here is the link to the Shepherd Center:  http://www.shepherd.org/
