This news is actually a bummer: "Mr. Perfect" Curt Hennig was released from his contract too.

Unlike Hall, Hennig is still a tremendous worker, one who fans cheered even though a heel (he was there for Jakked tapings when RAW came to Montreal a few months ago, so I can say this with experience!). He's a performer we'll actually miss.

Well, Scott Hall made it past Wrestlemania, but the story coming out from the WWE (I'm still nowhere near used to that name) is that he was just let go. Apparently he was in poor shape during the UK tour, and similarly messed up for RAW.

Less than a month ago, I read a newsletter report from a house show that claimed he and Sean Waltman (X-Pac) were "drunk as f!ck!". He's said in an interview on the federation Website that he was using a medicated patch that made alcohol toxic to him. Guess that didn't last long...

The World Wildlife Fund won, even though the court appeal hasn't been decided: the WWF we've all known is changing its name to WWE - World Wrestling Entertainment.

The logo has already changed, with the 'F' removed, and the site apparently now is wwe.com.

The Fund cost the federation a likely few million for the name change, and I don't think they'll actually feel any benefits from the name change. After more than 40 years, they made another company - one earning far more than they are - change. They must be really proud of that. (Yes, I'm being sarcastic.)
