- Speaking to Inside Wrestling, Booker T was asked for comment on the late Chris Benoit after working closely with him for a number of years. The SmackDown General Manager is asked how he separates Benoit's wrestling accomplishments and friendship with him from the horrible event that occurred in 2007.
"I separate them because I have to," said Booker. "You can't put the two together. I think of the Chris I knew on the road and in Japan, eating the frickin' noodles, traveling and working together for years. I can't put those two people together because I really think the two were different people at the time. We'll never know what happened, and that's the thing: We don't know. The brain is a fragile machine, because you can live with a person for 30 years and then they kill you one day."
- The Prime Time Players, Darren Young and Titus O'Neil, appear at Cricket Communications in Dayton, Ohio, on Saturday beginning at 4:00 p.m.
- After recently returning to North America, Rene Dupree competed in his first match in the United States since leaving WWE on Saturday in Rahway, New Jersey for Pro Wrestling Syndicate. He lost a Four-Way match, which also featured Dan Maff, Devon Moore and the winner, The Dynamic Sensation.
Dupree competed in Japan and Europe during his time away from North America. Though still muscular, he has since lost a considerable amount of weight.
