…….

For those of you who have asked, the Wrestling Chatterbox Newsletter will be sent out the end of the month. 
 
Someone was able to capture the surprise visit by X-Pac at the Tampa, FL WWE show.
He looks to be in great shape, and I'm hoping that he will return to the WWE as a member of DX soon.
 
Too Cold Scorpio (Charles Saggs) has signed a 3 year deal with the WWE.  It's still unclear in which brand Scorpio will be ending up, but either ECW or Smackdown make the most sense.
 
According to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer, John Bradshaw Layfield has given his notice to the WWE. Layfield is scheduled to make his final WWE appearance on the October 8th episode of SmackDown. John has a new job as an investment banker on Wall Street and has been a genius with picking great stocks on the stock market. This will be a great position for him.
P.S:  Supposedly now we hear a deal has been reached for John to stay on as an announcer.  More to follow.

Another reader Scott has a request.  Recently WWE 24/7 started in my area on Comcast cable and the 1st "old school" special they were running was the show from Shea Stadium from 1980. I literally have been waiting to see this since the late 80's and missed it again due to it debuting here by only days.
If anyone did record it, can you contact me and possibly set up a trade. I would really like to see this event.  Thanking you in advance, email:   [email protected]
