-- While there have been rumors that WWE is looking towards a storyline between Brock Lesnar and Gunther, the Wrestling Observer Newsletter recently reported that there are no plans for that match at SummerSlam or anywhere anytime soon. The report cautioned that plans could change because it is a "viable match" but that if Lesnar is booked for a match at SummerSlam, it won't be against Gunther.
-- The Observer also reported that despite internet reports stating otherwise, WWE is not in a "hiring freeze" and that it's "business as usual" when it comes to hiring. To that end, WWE is said to be discussions with some significant performers to come in though no names were mentioned. The hiring freeze rumor that has been floated around has also been tied with the return of Vince McMahon.
-- Fightfulselect.com reports that WWE holding their annual draft this spring, scheduled to take place on April 28 and May 1, right alongside the NFL's draft, beginning on April 27 for Day One, is not a coincidence implying that WWE made it a point to schedule theirs at the same time.
