    Shane McMahon was on WWF.com's Byte This! program today. Here are a few newsworthy notes along with a few not so newsworthy notes.

    Shane said the jerseys that he wears on PPV are one of a kind and are not for sale.

    Shane said the reason, storyline wise, that WWF wrestlers are not attacking DDP is because of the full access pass that Undertaker gave him.

    Shane said the hardest physical match he has been in was his most recent one with Kurt Angle at King of the Ring.

    Shane agreed that Tough Enough needs to be more than a half hour.

    Booker T called in. Said when in was in the old WCW, he grew tired of the business because the way management ran things, and was seriously thinking about retiring. Now that WWFE runs WCW he is very happy and retirement is not a consideration anymore.

    Charleston, South Carolina and Augusta, Georgia house shows next weekend will more than likely have a WCW presence. It's not on the WWF.com house show calendar yet but they said it will likely happen.

    There will be a WCW cruiserweight division with a cruiserweight champion. Not so sure yet about cruiserweight tag team titles.
