WWE Trying to Get The Rock for Smackdown 1000; News on Batista



-- According to the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE has been trying to get Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson in for Smackdown's 1000th episode show in a couple of weeks, given that the name of the show was originally coined after his catchphrase and at one point, he was calling it "The Rock's Show."

-- The story with Batista at first publicly complaining that he wasn't invited to Smackdown 1000 and then being announced as part of a one-night Evolution reunion is that after he complained, WWE saw the tweet and ended up inviting him. There have been rumors that he might be back to wrestle a few matches next year, but none of that is confirmed.
