[WWE] Ross Report, Mick Foley Notes, WWE Thoughts on TNA, More

Archive

– WWE.com has posted the latest Ross Report, where JR wonders about tag team wrestling, talks about Mr. Kennedy, and lots more. Iain Burnside will have more detailed commentary on this in the weekend’s Anti-Pulse.

– Despite Mick Foley saying that he didn’t use the TNA offer as leverage when signing with WWE, Mike Johnson of PWInsider.com is reporting that his sources tell him that there’s a rumor going around that Mick got a nice signing bonus. Plus, Mick will have flexibility to work out outside projects, although how that affects his relationship with Ring of Honor.

– Johnson is also reporting that many WWE employees are being cautiously optimistic that TNA’s run on SpikeTV will both provide competition to give WWE a well-needed push, as well as to provide a possible place to work if needed.

– Ads promoting WWE’s move to USA Network have appeared on USA’s sister network NBC. Other television networks owned/partially owned by NBC Universal are Bravo, TRIO, Sci Fi, Telemundo, mun2, CNBC and MSNBC.

Matthew Michaels is editor emeritus of Pulse Wrestling, and has been since the site launched.
