The Wrestling Observer has some details on Teddy Hart's behaviour in FCW related to his recent firing. When they started running Tuesday shows the talent was instructed to dress business-casual, yet Hart turned up late wearing hologram vest and pants with no shirt. In the main event of the first Tuesday show he was to make a run-in to save Harry Smith from a post-match beatdown, yet after Tom Prichard gave him the signal to go Hart continued to wait and then eventually just walked to the ring. He then did a moonsault off the top rope onto the heels outside the ring, an unplanned spot that was not allowed as all high spots in FCW require prior permission from management. After all that, he refused to help the babyfaces take down the ring like they were scheduled to do. The following Tuesday he behaved in the exact same way and made all the same mistakes, even after Prichard had specifically warned him against doing the moonsault spot. Vince and Stephanie McMahon had already received a negative report on him from OVW and so John Laurinaitis was instructed to let him go, since they felt he simply didn't fit in with WWE.

Daivari's contract was slated to expire in February. He had been negotiating a new deal and was making constant storyline pitches to Brian Gerwitz and the other creative team members to try and get himself a decent spot. Since they have been under pressure lately due to the injuries, suspensions and re-writes, nobody gave him much attention. Gerwitz was a fan of Daivari's but since even he wasn't seen to be supporting him and things looked bleak, Daivari wound up asking for his release.

Lilian Garcia had been pushing for her feud with Jillian Hall to help promote her new Spanish-language album. She credits Vince McMahon with the idea for the album after she sang the national anthem in Spanish at New Year's Revolution 2005, which was held in San Juan.
 
someone needs to let Teddy know he doesn't need to live the gimmick.....maybe Bret should smack him around some......

I don't know, all my preconceptions about Bret Hart have been sorely tested from the excerpts I read from his book. Even in his own words, he comes off as a total a-hole, so I doubt he could teach Teddy anything about respect.

Wow, I'm actually quite surprised. I thought with all this talk of Smackdown/ECW interpromotional business, the brand was on its way out. I guess we'll see how things go.

sometime in 96 or 97 during Bret and HBK's rivalry....Shawn was out in the ring with Bret and he said something like "i've seen you out on the road Hitman and you are no role model'....it always stuck with me....like there was some truth in it because of Brets' reaction.....
 
its good to hear ECW got reupped and you can go on about the ratings all you want, but for a show thats on a Tuesday night at 10 oclock...it does well and it saves Scifi from having to rerun something for that hour....and its a channel that caters to WWE's target demographic

The urgent meeting that took place backstage in TNA at the Bound for Glory pay-per-view a couple of weeks ago ended up being Kurt Angle and Jeff Jarrett who apparently hashed things out. Most of the top name superstars in TNA except for Sting (who didn’t want to take sides) went to Dixie Carter to try and force changes in the way that the product is being booked.

The main complaint was that TNA should have a more logical and traditional approach to booking. Several different names were mentioned to be on Angle’s side; however, one key person said that he was not asked to take sides. Different names were mentioned in different conversations as to what a more “logical” way entails, but right now it appears everything is status quo.
 
Logical = Focus on your homegrown talent and stop bringing in past their prime stars.
