ex-WCW talent to WWF, ECW + Mona's return, Thunder to be webcast, and Muta NOT to WCW?
:// When Mona returns she may have Jimmy Hart as her manager.
:// Both the WWF and ECW are said to be interested in the talent (Meng, El Dandy, Silver King, Psychosis, The Villanos) that WCW is releasing and not re-signing, but mostly ECW is interested in Meng and both feds want Psychosis. Psychosis has been involved in a number of DUI incidents during his tenure, as has Juventud, but Juvi actively took english lessons which raised his stock with the company.
:// Utilizing ACTV's HyperTV software, TBSsuperstation.com will deliver three consecutive hours of synchronized, real-time web-based activities, every Wednesday night from 8:00 PM - 11:00 PM (ET/PT), to enhance the network's airings of RIPLEY'S BELIEVE IT OR NOT! (R) and WCW THUNDER. Additional details regarding the launch will be announced shortly.
:// New Japan Pro Wrestling has reportedly cancelled Keiji Mutoh's (The Great Muta) scheduled WCW appearances on June 19th in Billings, MT. (Nitro show), June 20th in Bozeman, MT (Thunder taping), and June 26th in Cedar Rapids, Iowa (Nitro). New Japan is reported to still be angry over WCW's misuse of Jushin 'Thunder' Liger late lasy year when he toured briefly with WCW. New Japan is also upset over WCW pulling Kidman and Juventud Guerrera out of the the Top of the Super Juniors tournament...however, there are some reports that he's just been having Visa problems, so we'll all have to wait and see.
