WWF press release on Smackdown coming to Detroit on August 28- http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/010723/dem013.html Chris Danczak sent this in This article about Christian Wrestling is appearing on the front page of the Buffalo News today. I find it funny that with the WWF appearing tonight, that they chose to write about this. http://www.buffalonews.com/editorial/20010723/1026109.asp Tom sent this in Updated Honkey Tonk Man commentary - http://www.thehonkytonkman.com/news/172.shtml Robert Fallon sent this in Article on The Undertaker's wife Sara: "Fun while it lasts". The article says Sara is 24 years old, so when The Undertaker made his WWF debut Sara was like 14? That's kinda weird. http://www.wwf.com/news/headlines/1070003 The "TV" link on WCW.com originally linked to a non-working page that had "Nitro" in the address, it now links to Smackdown! results. From http://www.Midajah.com 07/20/01 - Now on eBay! I'm auctioning off the hot black dress I wore in one of my WCW photo shoots - and the matching autographed photo with it! Click here to check it out! http://cgi.ebay.aol.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1169219129 http://clubs.yahoo.com/clubs/wwfrawheatclub There were no injuries at Invasion last night. Steve Austin is expected to work a very light schedule this week. Expect minimum physical action out of him. Rob Van Dam is over more in the locker room after last night although there are still a few critics who are not accepting him. Credit: WrestlingObserver.com Judging from last night at Invasion it appears that Kurt Angle and Booker T will work a feud that will culminate at Summer Slam.

My seats were on the floor, 14 rows back from the ring. You could see clear as day if no one was standing up in front of you. The people behind me went up and talked to Ellis Burkes, which was pretty cool. They said he was a nice guy. When my friend and I arrived, we got on Sunday Night Heat along with about 20 other people and had a HUGE "ECW" chant going. Match of the Night: Rob Van Dam vs Jeff Hardy Best Heat: 1.) X-Pac. (People were shouting "X-Pac Sucks!" during his match, as well as after it.) 2.) Pretty much every ECWCW guy 3.) Stone Cold (after he swerved) Biggest Pop: 1.) Stone Cold (before he swerved) 2.) Angle 3.) RVD Show, Gunn, & Albert vs Kanyon, Stasiak, & Morrus was the worst match with crowd heat. We were so dead during that match. The person next to me started yelling "Goldberg" which was pretty funny. Funniest Thing Heard: "Undertaker bumps like Darryl!" (From tough enough) After Invasion went off air: Nothing much happened. After Paul, Steph, Shane, and Austin drank beer they walked up the ramp. Stephanie, Shane, and Paul went through ECWCW's door, and Austin headed to WWF's. He stopped, and then went through ECWCW's. The WWF boys got up and left to Angle's music. All in all, a great show! I'm very glad I went. Ashley sent this in I was at Invasion last night and the crowd was pretty hot the whole night. It seemed like everyone got great pops or boos. It said it was sold out but I saw a lot of empty seats. I'm not sure when the ppv stopped for those ordering it, but when Heyman, Stephanie, and Shane went to the WCW entrance, Austin started to go to the WWF one but went back to ECWCW. After they left everyone laid in the ring, then when Angle got up the crowd cheered and his music played. When Christian tried to jump over the ropes and got caught, the crowd started a "You f'd up" chant. Everyone was hot for the RVD vs. Jeff Hardy match, but no one I was with knew about the six-man tag with Billy Gunn, the Big Show, and everyone. WWF.com Raw Preview Last night at Invasion, the unthinkable happened. Stone Cold Steve Austin turned his back on the World Wrestling Federation, helping WCW/ECW to emerge victorious at the Inaugural Brawl. Tonight at 9/8 CT, RAW IS WAR airs live on TNN from the HSBC Arena in Buffalo, N.Y., and the stage is set for an EXPLOSION! What will Vince McMahon say about last night? What will Team WWF say about last night? What will Shane McMahon, Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley and Paul Heyman say about last night? And what will Stone Cold Steve Austin say about last night? You cannot afford to miss tonight's historic episode of RAW IS WAR, tonight at 9/8 CT on TNN! Be sure to check back later today for a full RAW preview once matches are announced! Credit: WWF.com It is strongly rumored that The Rock may return tonight and side with Vince McMahon to counter Steve Austin. Other rumors are if Rock does not return tonight that he will return at Smackdown or next week's Raw. It is widely known that Rock is done with his work on the Skorpion King and is just waiting for the perfect return. Most are in agreement that now is the perfect time. This would also be the reason that Austin turned, so it could set up for a possible Rock vs Austin main event at Summer Slam.
