— WWE’s German
announce team was in attendance at today’s
RAW TV tapings from the O2 Arena in London. They were sitting ringside during
the tapings.
— On Saturday
in Leeds, WWE Diva
Layla and Fandango hosted a WrestleMania Reading
Challenge event.
— As previously
reported here on the website, former indy wrestler Drake Younger has reported to
the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, FL and has been working as a referee
under his real name – Drake Wuertz.
According to
sources, Younger was told after a recent WWE tryout that the company wasn’t
looking for anymore “cruiserweight sized guys” as they already had enough. He
was offered the referee job instead and took it with the hope that eventually
it’ll lead to a wrestling role.
It should be noted
that while WWE isn’t currently looking for any “cruiserweight sized guys”, there
is always going to be exceptions depending on the talent but that’s the “general
rule” right now.
