Bobby Roode is in San Antonio, TX. He and TNA have worked out the contract
issues and he will be working tonight's PPV. We have been told his contract
expiring was Bruce Prichard's fault, but the situation has been
rectified.
In other news, former TNA Knockout Awesome Kong has declinced to
appear at the Knockout One Night Only PPV. This
is no surprise, as she said last year that she wouldn't be returning to TNA.
Other Knockouts that were contacted but declinced include Angelina Love and
Traci Brooks.
According to Jason Powell of ProWrestling.Net , Bobby Roode's TNA contract
"recently expired." This would explain the Tag Team Champion's absence from the
two most recent "iMPACT" episodes.
Powell claims there is "talk in the
locker room [that] talent relations head Bruce Prichard mistakenly allowed
Roode's contract to expire." Further, Powell cites a source as saying that Roode
himself was left to bring his contract expiration to the attention of TNA.
Roode and
his tag team partner Austin Aries are scheduled for a title defense tomorrow
night at the "Lockdown" pay-per-view event. According to Jason Powell's report,
Roode's status for the event is in
doubt.

Diamond Dallas Page is
asking for support from fans as they try to turn Scott Hall's life around. Hall,
who has been clean and sober for over 40 days, noted in the video above that he
feels "peaceful" for the first time in a long time. In just a little under two
weeks, Hall has already lost 10 pounds.
Page mentioned to Raj Giri of
WrestlingInc that they have been meeting with doctors about performing hip
replacement surgery on Hall. Page noted that it's "really f--king expensive,"
and they are looking to help raise $80,000 to cover the surgery, as well as
physical therapy, dental work and other medical expenses.
Page admitted
that it's a lofty goal, but they hope to do what they can. You can help support
Hall and donate by clicking
here, and share the link share with your friends via e-mail, Facebook,
Twitter, Tumblr, Reddit, etc. Fans that donate $3,500 will be flown in to the
"Accountability Crib" and will be able to meet Scott and either DDP or Jake "The
Snake" Roberts and stay the night in the house. Only ten of these packages will
be given out. Fans that donate $30 will receive a call from Hall.
- After the recent troubles with his knee that we've been covering this week,
Rey Mysterio's future is in question. When he mentioned to one company official
that he tore his good knee up about a week ago, it was brought up that he should
consider retiring. While Rey avoided surgery this time, he is one major injury
away from having to need a complete knee replacement. Rey currently has about
one year left on his contract.
- It would appear that the wrestler known as El Generico will be
going forward without his popular character in WWE as he competed sans mask at
tonight's NXT event. In his debut match last month for the organization, he
sported the mask and attire.
The renowned grappler
competed under his real name, Rami Sebai.
In the final part of a 2 part conversation this week on MLW Radio,
available right now at MLW.com, WWE superstar
Chris Jericho joined Konnan to discuss to discuss a variety of topics, including
why he's never worked for TNA. Konnan brought up negotiations Jericho had with
TNA in the past and Jericho had this to say when asked why he ultimately never
signed with TNA:
"The main reason is that I always wanted to work for
Vince McMahon ever since I was a kid. I've never worked for anybody else since I
stepped through the doors in August of 1999 and I never will work for anyone
else. I don't want to go to Japan. I don't want to go to Mexico for shots. I
don't want to go work in TNA. I'm a WWE guy. That's the way it's always going to
be.
"I'm sure TNA is a great company to work for. I'm sure you can do
really well there or make some great money or whatever. It doesn't matter to me.
I work for the big leagues. There's no reason for me to go anywhere else."
Jericho also discussed changes in how concussions are treated in the
industry and how it's shaped his views on Chris Benoit.
"I was like
everybody else. Shocked. A sense of 'what the [expletive]' happened. Denial.
Betrayal. How can he do this?
"I look back at it now, and I was really
close with him, but he got considerably stranger and stranger the last six
months of his life. I was like, what's with this guy? What's wrong with him? And
now I know the reason why. It's because his brain got worse and worse."
MLW Radio is available for free at MLW.com and on iTunes (search: MLW Radio), along

The New Age Outlaws have accepted Team Rhodes Scholars match for
this Monday's episode of Raw. They had until noon today to back out of the
match.
Billy Gunn wrote on Twitter, "50 mins of cardio, chest,back, and
abs, I tanned and all of this just for @CodyRhodesWWE @TheDamienSandow . This
Monday on #Raw , it's on!"
Cody Rhodes commented, "Saturday at 5|4c I
will be letting fans behind closed doors as I divulge what my training schedule
consists of as I prepare for the NAO."
Damien Sandow's personal scribe,

bravado I see! RAW Outlaws vs Scholars! Sincerely, Ignatius
#shouldhavebackedout"
As of this writing, there is no official word if
their feud will carry out through WrestleMania.
Sean "X-Pac" Waltman has announced on Thursday that he is
officially under WWE contract again, writing on Twitter, "Im proud to be able to
announce that I just received the executed copy of my WWE Legends Contract
moments ago. I'm humbled by this honor."
Former Warner Bros. Executive Eric Pankowsi is no longer WWEs
head of creative and development, according to former WWE writer Court Bauer on
Twitter.
Pankowsi was hired in January 2012 to head up WWEs television
creative development, including reality and kids programming. Duties included
managing the creative team as well well as overseeing the sale of programming to
networks, studios and other distributors.
Rey Mysterio's knee is reportedly in bad shape but Dr. James Andrews has told
him he can continue to wrestle, without having surgery, but will have to wear
the new brace that we noted earlier in the week. Rey originally told WWE
officials that he tore his knee up and was advised by a doctor that he would
need surgery. Triple H advised Rey to visit Andrews and that's where he was told
he would not need surgery.
- It was reported in January that WWE's creative team had plans for Randy Orton
to turn heel following numerous requests on the part of The Viper. F4WOnline.com
reports Wednesday that plans for Orton to become a villain again are still in
place and it is expected to take place soon after WrestleMania.
Push For Paul Bearer To Be Inducted Into WWE HOF Posted by Steve Carrier on 03/06/2013 at 10:56 PM
After news broke Tuesday evening that Bill Moody, famously known as Paul Bearer, had passed away, there was a push among some WWE circles to posthumously induct the legendary manager into the WWE Hall of Fame this year.
Bearer addressed the topic to Chris Yandek of www.cyinterview.com in an interview in January, stating, "I know that I will [be in the WWE Hall of Fame]. So thats all I need to know. Whether its next year or whether its five years from now, I know the times coming. Ive been very, very blessed in professional wrestling because Im just a Alabama kid, from the Alabama Gulf Coast that grew up watching local territory days wrestling. I have been all around the world. I performed in all 50 states, 28 countries and I got a paycheck every week.
