From WWE.com, in what looks like a storyline-related item:

Big Show suffers broken hand, vows to compete
December 27, 2005

Triple H showed the world once again why he is indeed the Cerebral Assassin. During Triple H and Big Show’s contract signing for their match at New Year’s Revolution, The Game jammed a pen in his opponent’s eye. Triple H took the assault a step further when he retrieved a sledgehammer that he had cleverly already hidden underneath the contract-signing table. Then, with Big Show down on the outside of the ring, The Game crushed the big man’s hand when he took the sledgehammer to it.

Big Show immediately fell to the ground, writhing and screaming in pain, while Triple H smugly smirked and walked back up the ramp. Show later learned that he had indeed broken his hand. While a sledgehammer and broken bones would stop most men, Big Show vows that he will still compete at New Year’s Revolution and look to exact revenge.

From WWE.com in what has been reported elsewhere online as a legit injury:

Booker T injured
December 27, 2005

According to WWE trainer Larry Hatch, Booker T suffered a strained groin muscle during his match last night at a SmackDown live event in White Plains. “Normally, this type of injury takes 4 to 6 weeks to heal,” said Hatch. “But Booker is a wrestler, so he’ll probably be ready sooner.”

Also on WWE.com today are videos of Mickie James kissing Trish Stratus, Stacy Keibler on Dancing With the Stars and “WWE Unlimited” videos of Gregory Helms calling out Jerry Lawler, Trevor Murdoch saying how much he liked Brokeback Mountain and more.
