  • Paul London has been telling his close friends that he was almost fired by WWE management last week after allowing the Ashley Massaro/Survivor information to get out. Apparently Ashley vouched for Paul to management and claimed he would have never intentionally leaked the confidential information. Following that, Paul London had a huge smile on his face when all the WWE talent was present during Vince's final walk to his limousine. All of the WWE talent was told to treat the situation as serious and real, while London was doing anything but. Vince was furious at London afterwards, just adding depth to the hole of heat London finds himself in.

  • Here are some details about Ashley Massaro and Survivor. Massaro left for the show last weekend and will be taping for 40 days in China. Even when she's eliminated, she has to remain in a undisclosed location. Apparently, Survivor officials do not want Massaro to return to WWE television until the Survivor season has concluded when it runs this fall/winter. Don't expect Massaro back until January of 2008. Massaro was also telling people that she was going to be doing a WWE film to cover up London's error of leaking the Survivor info.

  • Ric Flair will be finishing up as an active WWE wrestler at Wrestlemania 24.

  • WWE management has high hopes for Johnny Nitro. A big part of the reason they moved him to ECW was to split him from real life girlfriend Melina. Management thinks Melina is a major distraction towards the growth of Nitro as a performer due to her bad social behavior and reputation.

  • The reason Dan Rodman was booked to wrestle John Cena in the main event of a house show recently was to see how he performed under pressure at the highest level. Rodman is one of Johnny Ace's pet projects and management is expecting big things from him. Don't expect to see him on Raw, Smackdown, or ECW until they feel he is absolutely ready.

  • C.M. Punk was o.k. after landing on his head due to a Marcus Cor Von powerslam Tuesday night. Elijah Burke though, actually injured his back during his match with Chris Benoit. Burke was limping around afterwards and was going to be reevaluated later that week.
