-The Raw and Smackdown/ECW crews are off until Sunday's Judgment Day pay-per-view. I'll be covering the event live as it airs on Sunday night so feel free to watch along with me or follow along online if you don't order the show.

-TNA will be in Binghamton, N.Y. tonight, in Poughkeepsie, N.Y. on Saturday, and in Wallingford, Conn. on Sunday for house shows. The originally scheduled main event was Samoa Joe vs. Kurt Angle for the TNA Title. Check the TNA news section for an update on Angle's status for the weekend and for news on a returning TNA wrestler.

-Jim Ross will sit in as a guest co-anchor on the KFOR Ch. 4 news broadcast in Oklahoma City today at 4:30 (CT). You can watch the broadcast later today by clicking here.

-Matt and Jeff Hardy's "Twist of Fate" DVD was the highest selling video on the Recreational Sports chart this week, according to Billboard.com. Triple H's "The King of Kings" finished in second place. Steve Austin's latest DVD finished in sixth place, and the Raw 15th Anniversary DVDs landed in seventh place. TNA's "Against All Odds 2008" DVD finished tenth.

-Nick Bollea Poll Results: Last week, I asked whether Nick Bollea received a suitable punishment. 58 percent of Dot Net readers felt he got off easy. 36 percent it was suitable. Only six percent felt the punishment was too severe. I've already stated that I'm cool with the sentence because it seems to be right in line with what other minors would receive in similar circumstances. I can understand, though, if the sentiment is that the punishment for such a crime isn't severe enough in general. My primary concern was that Nick didn't get off easy because he's the son of a celebrity and it doesn't seem like that happened.

Monday's Raw Poll Results: 43 percent of Dot Net voters felt that Jeff Hardy's return to the ring was the highlight of Monday's Raw. 18 percent of the readers gave the nod to the Chris Jericho and Shawn Michaels segment. 11 percent voted for Beth Phoenix convincing backstage attack on Melina. The other segments combined for 28 percent of the vote. No argument from me on this vote. Hardy stole the show, and I was really impressed with Beth's aggressiveness.

-Al Snow, Spike Dudley, and Crowbar (a/k/a Devin Storm) will be appearing at the East Coast Pro Wrestling show in Wayne, N.J. on May 30. For more information, visit ECPW1.com. [Thanks to Devin Cutting of ProwrestlingEvents.tk.]

-The following matches are being advertised for tonight's AWA on ESPN Classic show: Baron Von raschke vs. Pistol Pete, Rocky Mountain Thunder vs. Nickle(?), Greg Gagne vs. Pat Tanaka, and Curt Hennig vs. Wahoo McDaniel. The show was taped on April 4, 1988.
