  • There is a rumor going around backstage that Shane McMahon's wife, Marissa, is pregnant. While not definite, it sure seems as if Vince McMahon will finally be getting a grandchild. With the Stephanie/HHH wedding this weekend, and the pregancy news, these are definitely happy times for the McMahon family on a personal-level.

  • There is a report backstage that WWE wanted to name the new Japanese faction "The Yazuka", but Tajiri declined doing so. Tajiri reportedly did not want to offend the real "Yazuka" (The Japanese Mafia).

  • The following contains a rumored spoiler regarding The Undertaker. Highlight below if you wish to read on:

    In what has to be some breaking news, there is finally a serious plan to bring back Undertaker's "Deadman" character.

    Every year or so, there are some key things that WWE fans want to see happen. Throughout last year, it was the return of Austin, as well as the debut of Goldberg. This year, the focus has been on a Bret Hart farewell appearance, and Undertaker's "deadman" character. It looks like we will be getting the latter.

    As I noted before, the tentative plan is for Vince McMahon to win the Buried Alive Match, most likely with swerve help from Stephanie. This would set Undertaker on a hiatus from WWE TV for a few months. Then, he would return around late-February to begin a program for a match at WrestleMania XX. However, the noticeable change would be that he would no longer be the "American Bad Ass", but "The Deadman" once again.

    The current rumors see the Undertaker's first match back as The Deadman against Kane as part of a group of inter-roster matches at WrestleMania.

    Again, nothing's totally confirmed, but the return of The Deadman before Undertaker's eventual retirement has always seemed inevitable, and this looks to be the angle that finally sets up the return.

    END HIGHLIGHT
