-- Today is ‘Ric Flair Day’ in Columbia, S.C., the city hosting what could be the last RAW of Flair’s career as an acive wrestler. Flair is scheduled to receive a key to the city today from mayor Bob Coble.

-- Variety published a significant article today on WWE’s increased focus on marketing to kids. WWE will be launching their WWE Kids magazine in April, which will be pushed in Wal-Mat stores all over North America. WWE plans to create an original kids-themed program on their website, and they’re trying to find a home for a new TV series. According to Variety, WWE’s weekly programming is watched by an average of 2.6 million children between the ages of 6 and 14.

-- Weather.com is still predicting a thunderstorm in Orlando for Sunday. Over the weekend, they listed a 60% chance of precipitation. That number has now dropped to 30%. Either way, WWE has prepared for rain by setting up a massive tent-like structure above the ring to keep it dry.
