In a blog entry on whether or not he’s looking to leave TNA, Samoa Joe goes on a little rant that was quite fun to read. Also, he noted on his blog that he will be doing some NOAH dates soon.

In other news, King Booker and Queen Sharmell will be renewing their wedding vows when RAW goes to South Africa next week.

PWInsider has reported that six to eight OVW workers are expected to be at this weekend’s TV tapings.

Devin Cutting reported to PWTorch.com that the following NY events were postponed by WWE: Syracuse moved from September 28th, 2007 to January 18th, 2008; Utica moved from September 29th, 2007 to January 6th, 2008; Jamestown moved from September 30th, 2007 to January 19th, 2008.

Finally, there has been a great deal of coverage of the WWE Internet drug story, including by the UK Sun and the Associated Press (picked up everywhere including on WashingtonPost.com), which quotes WWE spokesman Gary Davis as saying, “We are very actively working to eradicate the use of steroids and performance enhancing drugs in the WWE. Today’s action is part of that effort.” We have yet to receive any response from our inquiry to Davis.
