The following notes are from WWE's conference call:

-- Linda McMahon made a point of saying negotiations are moving "fast" with regards to WWE's position on Spike TV. WWE continues to speak to Spike and other networks to win RAW the best deal when its current contract expires in September. Linda also noted that its deals with Spike TV and UPN, while both under the Viacom umbrella, are treated separately.

-- Linda put over the roster split but did admit it would be tough to be totally satisfied. She reiterated the point that only 28% of viewers watch both shows.

-- When international and replay sales are counted, WrestleMania XX sold over one million buys.
