WWE News and Update Monday, May 11, 2009 Last week, there were reports that the WWE is now looking to make new stars out of their roster (please let it be Christian!). Well now, we’re receiving news that the company is now looking to rebuild over the next months. During this spell, they will expect that ratings and revenue may drop significantly but the company seems to want to shake off the effects of the global economic slump. Developmental talent from Florida Championship could be brought in and get their chances and with the WWE now having 4 shows (with a possibility of a fifth in the near future), there will be enough air time for the talent they’re throwing in the ring. Although these are the current plans, there’s still a chance that this won’t push through and is still subject to change.

 

WWE News and Update Monday, May 11, 2009 With The Undertaker out of commission for possibly a few months, his scheduled program with Jericho will now be put on hold. Jericho will now be working on a program with Rey Mysterio, one which he specifically requested from management. The two have started giving a taste of the feud during a European house show. They’re looking at an angle where Jericho unmasks Rey. While the WWE never acknowledges it, Mysterio has been unmasked before while working with WCW. He’s wrestled withough his mask when he was part of the New Blood angle and the Filthy Animals. It should be noted that the WWE doesn’t show Mysterio without his mask on, even in press conferences. When the company shows old footage of Mysterio wrestling without his mask in WCW, they actually blur the image. Both wrestlers have worked before during their WCW days and many within the company feel that this program will be very interesting since Jericho has a good track record with requesting programs with other wrestlers.

 

WWE News and Update Monday, May 11, 2009 There’s a WWE Diva who couldn’t be happier during the WWE Draft. According to reports, Melina broke down twice when her name was announced: she was being drafted from Raw to Smackdown. The real reason for her waterworks is John Morrison. They were a couple a few years back and now that they’re back together, she requested a transfer to Smackdown. Fans remember them as a real life couple when they were part of the stable MNM (which stood for Melina, Nitro, and Mercury), which captured the WWE Tag Titles 3 times. Mercury was eventually jettisoned out of the company and Melina and Morrison (then known as Nitro) separated in real life as well. Melina would then get into a real-life relationship with Batista, even garnering TV time as it was worked as part of a storyline (there is nothing sacred in the WWE. The storyline was about Melina accusing Batista of sexual harassment. Sheesh. Thank God Batista was injured and had to be taken off TV tapings or else I don’t know how I could have endured that). Melina is back in Smackdown along with Rey Mysterio to help regain the Latino community back to the show.
