Lots of Notes and News..

I know this has nothing to do with wrestling, but Steve Irwin had touched so many hearts. This is just a reminder that ABC TV will be having a tribute to Steve tonight at 10 PM. on 20/20 with Barbara Walters.  She interviews Steve's wife Terri in her first interview since Steve's death.
           RIP Steve Irwin  2/22/62 - 8/4/06

One of our readers thought she saw Joe (Animal of the Road Warriors) on Dancing with the Stars last night.  I did not see him, but I really wasn't watching the audience much.  Did anyone else see him there??  email:  [email protected]
 
I received an email from Joe the other night, he is so proud of his son James, who is doing so well in College Football.  James is ranked Number 3 as the top Linebacker in the Nation for Ohio State.  He is also in Sports Illustrated this week.  Joe informs me that Sporting News and Agents are very high on  James right now.  
Joe was at the Tokyo Toy Fair last week, it was tremendous.  They sold 2,000 action figures through Psyco Toys very quickly.  They are looking to hook up with a distributor here in the states.
 
Another reader informed me that they didn't see Joe, but did see Chuck Luddel from UFC Ultimate Fighting.  He was sitting in the front row, watching his girlfriend, Willa Ford..

16 Days for "The Marine" to open in theatres.  The Marine This is one movie I can't wait to see.  I watched the trailer and it seems to be action packed, just the way I like it.

The November 16th TNA debut in the 9 p.m. time slot on Spike TV will be a two-hour special.  I believe this will be huge for TNA.  Also signing Kurt Angle, but I hope they guard his health.

ECW and UFC will not be going head-to-head on October 10th as originally thought. UFC has announced that their live special featuring Ken Shamrock vs. Tito Ortiz will be airing from 8-10 PM on Spike TV from Hollywood, FL., which will completely avoid competition with ECW on Sci Fi Network.
