-TNA Super Impact begins at the usual 8:00 p.m. CT start time. It's a three-hour show headlined by A.J. Styles vs. Kurt Angle in a match that people within the company are absolutely raving about. The show will also feature footage from the "Before The Glory" pay-per-view preview that I feel is some of the best footage the company has ever shot. Rich Twilling will be covering the show live tonight, so stop by and watch along with him.

-WWE Superstars is headlined by the Mark Henry vs. Chris Masters match that will determine the seventh member of Team Raw for the Bragging Rights pay-per-view. It's not exactly a hot match, but it's still nice to see that WWE is throwing a bone to their Thursday night show by adding a stipulation that makes the show seem relevant for once. Chris Shore will be covering the show live tonight at 7:00 p.m. CT, so be sure to watch along with him.

-Special thanks to Brian Fritz and the gang at Between The Ropes for having me on the show Tuesday night. You can listen to my appearance, which is about an hour into the show, by visiting BetweenTheRopes.com. By the way, keep listening after my appearance for some guy named Rob Van Dam Fritz assured me that he has the bigger guests on first. Yes, I'm kidding.

-Lou Albano's death received plenty of mainstream attention. I was pleasantly surprised to hear CBS News cover his passing in a radio report. They noted his pro wrestling history and played "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" in the background while discussing his appearances in the Cyndi Lauper videos.
