Following a story.
- It was noted at yesterday’s investors call that WWE will have 27,000 hours of their library material digitized by the middle of 2011, at a cost of $4 million. WWE is looking to spend $4-$5 million in the future to create new programming.

- Vince McMahon was asked about talent development during the call and he said that The Rock’s return has made them more aware by having older names “brushing up” with younger talents like The Miz and Alberto Del Rio.

Vince feels that talent development is “going very well” and that Edge’s retirement won’t hurt their bottom line because they’re doing so well with developing new talents.
