    -- Ron Killings has agreed to go to WWE, though he has yet to sign a contract. First, he has to pass their medical and drug tests before he signs a contract. Barring anything unforseen, that shouldn't be a problem. When he starts up in WWE again, his ring name will be "KWIK" Ron Killings. The creative team wasn't aware that Johnny Ace was talking with Killings regarding a possible return to the company as they found out about it through the Wrestling Observer Newsletter a few weeks ago. When Killings starts up in WWE again, it'll probably be for the best that he appears on either SmackDown or ECW because Raw writer Brian Gewirtz vocally opposed WWE bringing back Killings. Gewirtz brought up problems he had with Killings from a pre-tape segment they did several years ago. He then buried Killings by doing a re-enactment of the conversation they had regarding that segment several years ago.

    -- WWE's stock has been dropping a bit as of late. Some people within WWE were not happy with the story on Vince McMahon buying a penthouse apartment in New York City getting out out of fear that the WWE stockholders would be concerned. The feeling is that Vince McMahon & WWE are one and the same, and any family or health concerns would have an impact on WWE stock.

    -- Ric Flair will be wrestling Snitsky on one of WWE's shows in Japan next month.

    -- Eddie Colon, who has been under a developmental contract for over a year, will finally make his WWE developmental debut this Saturday night for Florida Championship Wrestling in Port Richey, FL at the Jewish Community Center.

    -- Prospective WWE wrestler Sheamus O'Shaunessy from Florida Championship Wrestling is at the Sundance Film Festival for the premiere of The Escapist, a movie he appeared in.
