• The good news keeps rolling in for the Rock, as his new movie "The Rundown" continues to get great reviews. If this movie is a big sucess, we might see the Rock even less on WWE TV than we've already seen him. It definatly looks like "The People's Champion" won't be returning as a full-time wrestler anytime soon. It is expected though that Rock will come back to the WWE at the start of the new year so they can set something up for him for Wrestlemania 20 at Madison Square Garden in New York City.
  
  
• Along with some very positive reviews, none other than the team of "Ebert & Roeper" gave "The Rundown" two thumbs up and call it "pure entertainment", "The best movie of the summer", and that The Rock is a bona fide movie star.
  
  
• The good news isn't just limited to the Rock though, because the word going around the WWE is that Al Snow was offered a brand new contract. The only catch is, they want him to move from his home in Ohio to Stamford, CT. Most of the current WWE announcers live close by the WWE studios since it makes it easier for them to stop by to do voiceovers, promos, etc when needed. If Snow accepts and moves, Jerry "The King" Lawler will be the only announcer with the WWE who doesn't live in or around Stamford (Lawler's home resides in Memphis, TN).
