HOTEL INCIDENT DURING THE WRESTLEMANIA WEEK
There were reportedly hotel bar incidents with Matt Hardy and the WWE Tough Enough crew in Atlanta this past weekend for WrestleMania. We have no details yet but obviously they can’t do anything to Hardy but there may be some repercussions for the Tough Enough cast. One source says if a main roster WWE star had done some of the things they did, they might have been released if they were low enough on the roster.
SHAWN MICHAELS WAS TALKING ABOUT WHOM AT HALL OF FAME
It was speculated that Shawn Michaels was referring to Ric Flair when he said he couldn’t mention someone’s name during his WWE Hall of Fame induction speech. Shawn revealed on Twitter that he was talking about Vince McMahon. He wrote:
“There seems 2b confusion on the “who” I couldn’t mention during my speech. It was Vince. He doesn’t want focus on him. U wanna c the real Vince watch the HOF ring presentation on the WWE Diary w/me. The rest is gimmick, don’t believe what u read. It sounds like a schill but its fact. But of course that’s jus 1 guys opinion that actually knows him…for 20+ yrs. Whadda I know.”

NEWS ON ROCK VS JOHN CENA AT WRESTLEMANIA 28
Sources report that there was a massive last-minute re-write of RAW on Monday afternoon. Early in the afternoon, they were going with Triple H vs. The Undertaker at SummerSlam and Taker vs. John Cena at WrestleMania 28. A few hours later they made The Rock vs. Cena announcement, which is a significant change within just a few hours.
There’s a feeling that the long-term plan has always been to build WrestleMania 28 around The Rock, even if he wouldn’t agree to wrestle. This could have played a factor in WWE’s decision to choose Miami as the host city. It’s possible that Rock will also go into the Hall of Fame next year.

WWE INTERESTED IN SNOOKI

NEWS ON SIN CARA'S DEBUT ON RAW THIS WEEK
When Sin Cara attacked Sheamus on RAW this past Monday, a WWE crew member pushed a mini-trampoline from under the ring as Cara ran towards it. There was concern backstage that the trick could go wrong if the trampoline wasn’t in the right position, which it wasn’t. The trampoline was positioned so close to the ring that Cara almost didn’t clear the top rope when he went to attack Sheamus.
On a related note, Cara was originally planned to leap from the top rope onto Sheamus on the floor with a tornado twist in mid-air. He called an audible during the angle and ended up doing the high crossbody. The original finish to the angle would have looked better on TV but the crossbody came off nice.
