Trish Stratus has apprently upset alot of the divas who felt like she took away their mania spots according to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer.
He says that several WWE Divas weren't happy with the originally planned multi-women's tag team match being nixed from WrestleMania XXVII, leaving a scant few to participate in skits, and only Lay-Cool competing. This led to heat on Stratus and Polizzi as some girls felt they "took their spots" because unlike them, they're on the road all year long.
Scott Hall is in the news again. He appeared at a live event for Top Rope Promotions on Friday night and was in "no condition to perform." Hall could barely walk or stand up on his own and had to be held up by several people.
Ryan Drew from Top Rope Promotions sent word that Hall showed up to the building in the afternoon under the influence of something and was "belligerent and incoherent."
There was an autograph signing and Hall fell asleep during it and when he was awake, his signature consisted of a line, not a name. Here is a disturbing video of Hall, trying to enter the ring.
Regarding rumors of WWE talent cuts already being made, PWInsider.com reports that while no one has been officially let go yet, they are definitely on the horizon.
The cuts are being done to free up roster space as there are numerous young wrestlers waiting in the wings to be called up to the main roster. Between developmental, NXT and Tough Enough, WWE has over 70 men and women vying for spots on the main roster. The lone additions to the main roster so far this year have been Sin Cara, Brodus Clay and referee Scott Armstrong. The yearly turnover rate of main roster talent is approximately 30.
It is said that company officials have largely made up their minds on which wrestlers to cut ties with. The ax is expected to drop following the upcoming European tour, which concludes Sunday, April 24.
