- There is talk that Ric Flair could return to WWE television in a non-wrestling role in a few months. Flair is opposed to becoming a road agent or announcer.

- Speaking of Flair (from Adam Lebow), During the 2am/morning loop edition of TSN Sportscenter, before showing the Hornets/Warriors highlights, TSN showed the "Nature Boy" doing the player introductions, but mostly him in his robe from Mania doing some 'Wooos' which propted anchor Holly Horton to say that Flair didn't really do anything in the introductions except have his pyro result in Chris Paul having to escape the smoke (they showed video footage of this happening).

- Several people within WWE felt Dusty Rhodes needed a change of venue, thus his move to developmental should be a good transition.

- WWE not using blood at Wrestlemania is seen as a sign the product is conforming to a younger audience.

I found it real odd that no one bladed at Mania. I figured we would see blood in the Belfast brawl and one of the main events. Looks like the stuff with the kids mag and the lack of blood proves the WWE is going to market more to kids. This should be good news to the Cenamaniacs, bad news for you smarks out there.

WWE has been marketing kids since Cena & Batista rose up. It's dumb, and slowly but surely they'll turn away their fans who's been watching for years, instead of the idiot kids who are happy to see a Midget (Horny) win a Title. It's bull crap, and no blood? Kinda crap is that?

^ Agreed. WWE should market their loyal fans who stick with them no matter what, and I'm sorry to tell you this but those type of fans aren't 8-9 years old.

Kids having more spending power than the loyal fans. Face it kids buy every merchandise and every DVD. We all did when we were young. People like us download their PPVs or get it from streams, and WWE doesn't earn from it. I'm not agreeing with what they are doing, but I can see why.
