-TNA is taping next week's Impact tonight in Orlando, Fla. I'm still searching for a regular correspondent for the Impact tapings. If you can help, shoot me an email.
-Speaking of help, I'm looking for volunteers who are interested in writing weekly television reports on TNA Impact and WWE Smackdown. The catch is that you must be able to watch the East Coast feed of the shows. If interested, send me an email at dotnetjason@gmail.com.
-Ric Flair was honored in Congress on Tuesday. "I would like to honor the career of a man whom I am proud to call both a constituent and a friend," representative Sue Myrick stated while addressing the House of Representatives. "He will forever be known as an innovator, a pioneer, and perhaps the greatest that his industry has ever seen. By any standard, Ric Flair is a living legend... Today I honor the outstanding career of the 'Nature Boy'—and congratulate Charlotte's favorite son—Ric Flair." To read her full speech or to check out video, visit Politico.com.
-Former TNA on-air personality Leticia Cline is part of a new Howard Stern send-off called "Howard Stern's Bowling Beauties" on Howard TV (On-Demand). [Thanks to Dot Net reader Jagger K.]
-The Smackdown crew is in Birmingham, England today. You are encouraged to send in a review if you happen to attend the show.
-Mike Adamle Poll: I had a poll all set to go that was going to let readers rate Adamle's debut performance. However, I decided to pull it about 20 minutes into the show because it became so obvious what the reaction was going to be. That being said, I'll be posting another Adamle related poll shortly.
Poll Results: 37 percent of the Dot Net voters picked Mickie James beating Beth Phoenix as the best segment of Monday's Raw. 34 percent felt the in-ring confrontation between Shawn Michaels and Chris Jericho stole the show. The other four candidates combined for 30 percent of the vote.
-The headline of a Seattlest.com story reads, "Armed crackhead turns hotel lobby in WrestleMania." I was tired when I read the headline and my first thought was that a crackhead pulled out a gun and forced people to perform wrestling matches for him, but the story isn't nearly that cool.
The following matches are listed as airing on tonight's AWA on ESPN Classic show: Boris Zhukov and The Sheik (Adnan) in a squash, Col. DeBeers vs. Jake Milliman, Doug Somers and Buddy Rose and Larry Zbyszko vs. Mike Rotunda and Jimmy Snuka and Steve Pardee.
