In a slight change in the Scramble match rules, the match will now start with two random challengers, not the champion and the challenger. The rest of the rules remain the same -- a new challenger will enter every five minutes, pinfalls/submissions create "temporary champions" and the person who wins the overall match is the new champion.
Paul Heyman has a new article up on the Sun website talking about how Ric Flair deserves better than cutting promos for independent wrestling promotions. Check out the article at http://www.thesun.co.uk/.
WWE.com reports that Batista, Shelton Benjamin, and Candice Michelle will all be attending the Democratic National Convention while Shawn Michaels, Mr. Kennedy, and Mickie James will be attending the Republica National Convention.
WWE changed the opening segment during last nights edition of SmackDown. They showed Vickie Guerrero cutting a promo on the TitanTron, which actually wasn't shown before the live crowd. At the taping, they showed Vickie on the screen, but the audience couldn't hear the audio. This was likely done to get some arena shots whiled she talked. Fans in attendance at the taping saw Vickie wheeled out onto the stage by Chavo Guerrero to give a speech. There was a chorus of boos and "WHAT?" chants during her announcement. The speech was said to be a bit long, so perhaps it was cut due to time constraints.
