-TNA Impact Wrestling is taped once again from the UK this week. Hulk Hogan will choose who faces Jeff Hardy at Lockdown. Join Ryan Kester and I for live coverage as the show airs on Spike TV at 7:00 p.m. CT.

-Dot Net celebrated its fifth birthday on Monday. In celebration of this, we are holding a special throwback membership special starting at $5 for one month. You can also lock in at that rate for six months by signing up for $30. Or you can sign up for our cheapest full year membership rate ever at $55. To access the coupon codes needed to take advantage of this one-week sale, visit the Dot Net Birthday Sale Page.

-Once you sign up to be a member, be sure to check out today's Dot Net Weekly audio show. Jason Powell and I will review all the news of the week and give our preview and some predictions of this Sunday's Elimination Chamber PPV.

-Pro Wrestling Evo returns to iPPV tomorrow night for Evo Eight 2013. The eight man tournament is available at prowrestlingevo.com and yes, I will be doing play by play duties.

-Wrestling is Art is holding two shows this weekend, February 16 in Haverhill, Mass and February 17 in Bridgewater, Mass. The shows are primarily CHIKARA talent. Dot Net contributor Zack Zimmerman will be in attendance wearing his Packers hat so stop by and say high if you get a chance.

-Former WWE/ECW star Tommy Dreamer (a/k/a Thomas James Laughlin) turns 42 today. Dreamer has remained active on the indy scene since leaving TNA, and recently made an appearance on Impact as one of Bully Ray's groomsmen.

-Fittingly enough, the World's Largest Love Machine Viscera (a/k/a Nelson Frazier, Jr.) turns 41 today. Big Daddy V hasn't made a lot of noise on the independent circuit recently, but Wikipedia says he has signed with Italian promotion Nu-Wrestling, where he is in a tag team with Charlie Haas.

-Former NWA wrestler Rip Rogers (a/k/a Mark Sciarra) may or may not turn 58 depending on which birthdate listed for him is accurate. Rogers is currently one of the trainers at TNA developmental territory Ohio Valley Wrestling.

-There are no classic wrestling shows listed for ESPN Classic tonight.

-A Happy Valentine's Day to those who are taken or will be taken. For the rest of you, well, there's always next year. We at Dot Net love you though. Enjoy the day and remember guys, candy and flowers are always acceptable, except when they aren't. Hey, I live with five women and I still haven't got it figured out. Good luck.
