*Former WWE Wrestler, D-Lo Brown made his All Japan debut on Jan 3rd.
*One of Stephanie McMahon’s creative assistants has recently been rubbing her the wrong way by pitching storylines for undercard wrestlers, rather than concentrating on the top of the card, where Stephanie would like him to concentrate. Shawn Conaway, was one of Stephanie’s shortly after he was hired, but recently has been rubbing her the wrong way.
*HHH took digs at Brock Lesnar, The Rock, & Hulk Hogan recently in an interview with zwire.com:
Regarding Hollywood comparisons to Rock, he said: “Um, it’s a natural question, because he’s the most successful wrestler to go into Hollywood. You really can’t count the stuff Hogan did. If it was football, it’d be the same thing. I don’t want to do what The Rock did. I don’t want to be the next Rock. I want to be the first Triple H in anything I do. I’m also not looking to leave wrestling. If Hollywood continues to be an avenue for me, because of Blade, and I get other opportunities – which I have – then I’ll explore those opportunities, but I’m not looking for a substitute for wrestling. I think there’s a way to do both.” Regarding Brock, he said: “If the time was right. You know, the one thing about Brock is that Brock left before Brock made any money in the business. He made some money personally, but he was just getting to the point where people were going to pay to see him. Up until that point, he had been propped up by everything around him. He was just getting to the point to where he would become an attraction on his own. He hadn’t gotten there yet. It would be hard for him, at this point, to come back and it would take a lot of work on his part for him to be accepted by the guys. Secondly, it would take a lot for him to be accepted by the fans”
