- Last month Steve Austin made headlines when he said WWE should sign TNA star Samoa Joe when his contract expires later this year. Austin tweeted:

“WWE should sign @SamoaJoe as soon as his TNA contract is up. One of my favorite workers in today’s game. Needs a full green light

It appears that Stone Cold might get his wish - because sources in TNA have informed us that Samoa Joe has been talking seriously about jumping to WWE as soon as he can.

- Mike Pavone, Executive Vice President of WWE Studios, has been removed from his job. His exit from WWE Studios comes just a week after it was announced that its "That's What I Am" movie was a losing proposition - to the tune of $3.3 million.

- Despite previous reports, Mark Caranno has not been moved from WWE talent development to working directly under Triple H.
