Ric Flair's interview for TSN's "Off The Record" was taped this past Wednesday evening. It will be airing on TSN in Canada Tuesday night and should be available online by next Wednesday or Thursday.


Last month WWE instituted a dress code requiring employees (including wrestlers and valets) to dress more formal. Similar to dress codes in the office atmosphere, WWE applied this for staff to look more professional when traveling to and from events.

1wrestling.com is reporting that Bob "Hardcore" Holly has been very vocal against the dress code. His point was that wrestlers have to work long hours and shouldn't be required. He also claims that the clothing is uncomfortable to wear on long flights.

One WWE wrestler told 1wrestling.com that Holly came across as "trailer park trash" since he was "upset because he had to dress up to go to work".

My only comment to this? Holly should look around the next time he flie and watch how many people dress neat. And maybe he should stop wearing wool.



WWE will be releasing shortly the DVD version of the UPN special "Cheating Death, Stealing Life". Even if you saw the special, you might want to pick up this Double DVD, as it will have five hours of extras!

In addition to the matches, they will show behind the scenes footage of Eddie's Stacker 2 commericals, and his photo shoot from Lo Rider Magazine.

Several of Los Guerreros vignettes will be included. 3e6r.net will be posting a section on the site shortly where you will be able to preorder the DVD set at a discounted price. The DVD is scheduled for a September 2004 release.

 


Earlier today Advanced Telelcom Services, Inc. issued a press release regarding their new venture with WWE. They announced that WWE hired them to provide the 800#s, and process the phone calls for the Divas Search 2004 contest.

Interesting was what they did not mention. I contacted the company today and was advised that although they are processing the calls, they are not responsible, nor are they calculating the actual call counts for the contest. Hence, WWE can pretty much publicly announce a call count that has no legitimate documentation behind it. (Remember our comments on Christy and Carmella!)
