Quick News

Source: Wrestlezone.com:

WWE.com has an interview up featuring Rich Christensen of the Speed Channel's "Pinks" show and Tommy Dreamer. During the interview Dreamer admits to suffering a hairline fracture in his leg and continuing to wrestle on it because he didn't realize that he was injured.

CNN has a video now online of Vince McMahon and Larry King squaring off in a match in an animated video courtesy of the WWE Raw vs. SmackDown 2008 video game. As noted earlier, WWE has been bumped from tonight's episode of Larry King Live. Instead, CNN.com confirms that Larry King will interview "Dr. Laura" about former New York Governor Eliot Spitzer's prostitution scandal. Hours later, King announced that he may have the WWE on his show sometime next week.

The Daytona Beach-News Journal continues their coverage of WrestleMania with another Q & A with Jim Ross.

Deuce, Domino, Cherry, and Val Venis will be in Nashville, Tennessee this weekend with the WrestleMania Fan Axxess tour. The festivities will be set up at the Opry Mills Mall Entertainment Court on Saturday and Sunday.

During an appearance on MTV's Total Request Live, Kim Kardashian stated she would be appearing at WrestleMania 24 during the BunnyMania Lumberjack Match along with Snoop Dogg.

World Wrestling Entertainment's "Greatest Superstars of WrestleMania" production will be shown in Carmike Cinema theatre chains this weekend. The production will also be released on DVD through Wal-Mart.

The following was issued on ROHwrestling.com: "Forget about the Monday Night Wars, the Thursday Night War is here TONIGHT. ROH and TNA will be going head-to-head on cable TV. ROH "Rising Above" featuring the Nigel McGuinness vs. Austin Aries main event that everyone is calling a match of the year candidate will air tonight at 9pm on iN DEMAND. If you have The DISH Network you can see it today on DISH's All Day Ticket. TNA "Impact!" airs on Spike TV tonight at 9pm featuring Karen Angle's bombshell announcement.

The special extra on the WWE No Way Out 2008 DVD will be the backstage segment where Shawn Michaels congratulates Ric Flair on his victory over Ken Kennedy.

Stacy Keibler is putting all her wrestling memorabilia on sale on eBay. She's selling dresses, skirts, shoes, boots lingerie and bikinis.

Lita was interviewed on radio station Y101 (Richmond, VA) this morning. The hosts kept asking her about her personal life but she was having none of it. When they asked her if she was still dating Edge, she said that even if she was, she wouldn't tell us because she learned her lesson last time. She sounded very uncomfortable and did not want to talk about wrestling at all. When asked about Jeff Hardy's suspension, Lita said that she hadn't heard about it yet but "it sucks". She refused to answer whether Jeff uses drugs. Afterwards, the hosts ragged on her and said she was a bad interview guest.

From what I understand, Jeff Hardy is now in rehab. The word we are getting is that Hardy was denying he had a problem and was rejecting the idea of going to rehab. Apparently Hardy has been having a drinking problem. This is just what I (Ryan Clark) have heard and I'll keep you posted as I get more. I was hesitant to post this so take it for what it's worth.

PhillyBurbs.com has an interview up with WWE Diva Melina. When asked whether she was surprised when Batista went public about their relationship, Melina said, "Kind of yes and kind of no. Like, I was surprised to see it but knowing him, he wears his heart, he'll tell people how he feels. He doesn't hide anything, and he didn't say as much as he would have said, and for reasons I guess? But in his way, he put the most important people in his life in that book, and that's his way of saying that I'm an important person in his life."

Regarding the Georgia State Senate passing Senate Bill 413 (that dealt with professional wrestling), the bill was amended to keep professional wrestling from the strict state regulations. The bill largely focuses on regulating mixed martial arts and ultimate fighting in the state as they will be regulated by the Georgia Boxing Commission. There was a separate section added to the bill for professional wrestling.
The only thing that Senate Bill 413 will require out of professional wrestling events in the state of Georgia is that all wrestlers and promoters must have a license to work. Wrestlers will not be subject physicals and drug tests or fall under the strict regulations that MMA and boxing will be subject too.

ECW Diva Lena Yada is apparently injured. There's a picture circulating online in which she is seen wearing a cast on her right arm.
