Taz doesn't strike me as an unprofessional prick.. I don't know the guy obviously but I don't see why WWE wouldn't use him at Mania.

As noted on the front page, Molly Holly, Victoria, Tammy Sytch (Sunny) and Torrie Wilson have all been added to the 25-woman Mania match. If you add those to last night's 17, that's 21 total. I would suspect Santino to be in there for number 22, and I know that Vickie Guerrero is getting a crash course in wrestling to compete as well, so she'll be 23. -- After Raw went off the air last night Orton and DiBiase escaped into the crowd and the McMahons cornered Cody and destroyed him with a sledgehammer shot. At least it wasn't a baseball bat. http://www.f4wonline.com/content/view/8841/

I'm not seeing any match history for her in the WWF.

HOOOOOO. *Chris Jericho gets on the mic and runs down a random legend* COME OVER HERE AND SAY THAT, TOUGH GUY.

I've just seen Mickey Rouke live on Sky Sports News over in the States.. His hair has really grown since the Oscars. He's looking like he might be the part at WrestleMania, he might still come in character.

Alan Shearer is Newcastle manager.

Ah, excellent. Please put me out of my misery. What is Twitter? I hear it everywhere.

Daivari looks a little too happy there.

Even the toughest guys probably get enough of being degraded as they're trying to work. You never know what Vince is saying to them.

VIPER! COME ON COLE. VINTAGE VIPER!

Is the resident Molly Holly mark still here?

I'd like to see the Main Event Mafia intimidate the announce team with Taz sitting there.

I said this to somebody via PM earlier.. Tenay and Taz wouldn't be as bad as you might think.

Ouch. I hope we get brand vs brand where the winner gets a draft pick again this year. Edge cheating to beat Kane and then drafting Kane to SmackDown! for example.

I know it will happen... but I'm praying the crowd refrains from doing the "What" response after every sentence. I seriously bet you he'll say it back to the crowd. Thank god he'll be the last inductee because he'd ruin it for anybody after him.

I could totally see Coach being one of the surprise entrants in the Rumble with a #7 or so spot one year.

You know, i'd not even thought about that Diamond. And you just know Austin will egg them on by doing it himself.

It's been eight years now.. When are WWE fans going to drop the 'WHAT?'

Torrie? Goodness.

Hey, i've worked as a doorman for probably every pub in Derby. We got good pubs!

Come to Derby!

Raw ratings info We don't have the number at the moment, but it will be updated here later today. The show did 5.2 million viewers, the same as last week, so the rating should be in the same ballpark as last week's 3.5. http://www.f4wonline.com/content/view/8838/

You bastard. I'm bringing my A-game in Season Two.

Rajah.com has these: So you might be correct JRE. I don't see how Jeff pinning big Zeke ends the show though.

We haven't really delved into Legacy as a stable. What was the explanation given for joining up? Randy wanted backup and Priceless wanted to be associated with the big star?
