- WWE has already topped 55,000 ticket sales for WrestleMania 24, with 10,000 tickets left.
- Ron Killings has been telling people that he will be accepting the offer given to him by WWE, which is an $80,000 downside guarantee. He hasn't signed and is seeing if AAA will match the deal.
- The reason Ric Flair and HHH had the DQ finish on Raw is because Vince McMahon doesn't want Flair going over any money players at this point. Ric Flair's wife and children (Ashleigh, Reid and Tiffany) were at ringside for the match, but WWE made the call not to show them at all. Many feel the reason was because the match and finish were more of designed angle for HHH, despite it being part of the Flair retirement storyline.
- Mick Foley is expecting to make 2008 his last year and to fully retire. Foley knows due to back and knee injuries that his time is limited.
- WWE debuted January 5th on the SBT channel in Brazil. They are showing Raw and Smackdown, and the plan is for build towards future touring.

the real reason flair won by dq was because Vince' son in law didn't want to job to flair, but I bet they will have Flair to defeat MVP for the U.S. title at the RR.

so if it's not Cena it's Hunter hatin' huh Rico...who does Triple H have to lay down for until that stigma of bein' selfish is cast off of him...I'm sure the guy has MASSIVE pull but I would think it would be a great honor for him to do the job for his idol...me thinks this reeks of the Evil Emperor...

I agree. You know for a fact HHH would lie down for Flair at any given time, especially with how high profile these matches are becoming because of their stipulation...

3H has just a little too much pull....if you read most of the interviews with wrestlers after they have left the WWE, and some that are still there, most of them will talk about the pull that 3H has, and how most of them get burried under him.

Classic case of mistaking the character for the man, at times.
