Written by Stevie J

Sunday's news is HERE. Don't miss Ian Clark's WWE Raw Recap tonight at 9:15 PM ET! Here's Monday's latest news.

The Miz will be on Conan O'Brien's talk show on March 23rd. (PWI)

InYourHead Online interviews Road Warrior Animal. The link will take you to a full recap.

Chad Simplicio's SoCal Indie Wrestling Recap from this weekend covering both Mach-1 and So-Cal Pro. Big ups to Chad!

Parade Magazine covers John Cena's charitable work. Similar to a video we linked to yesterday.

Hatchet Attacks I-PPV announced. The event will take place March 26th and is scheduled to feature Sabu, Raven, Vampiro, Rhino and many more!

A picture of Maryse and her sister. Why do you care? Well I'll say this - looking at pictures of her beats having to see her suck the charisma out of a whole building live on Raw.

Here's another Animal interview recap. In this one he talks about the rumors of the Road Warriors being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame this year.

The Post & Courier talks about the Jeff Hardy PPV debacle. Worth clicking for a read.

As of today Triple H vs. The Undertaker is scheduled to main event WrestleMania 27 with no additional stipulations (like "career versus streak") to be added between now and then. (WO) As always these plans could change at any time.

Christian COULD be added to the Edge vs. Alberto Del Rio match in some form or fashion (perhaps to keep Brodus Clay at bay) but that's not been 100% decided by anybody in WWE. (WO)

Here are Sunday's WWE house show results from Charleston, WV: Kane and Big Show defeat Slater and Gabriel via DQ; Chavo Guerrero defeats Tyler Rex; Percy Watson defeats Curt Hawkins; Kofi Kingston defeats Drew McIntyre and Cody Rhodes to retain the IC title; Layla beats Beth Phoenix; Jack Swagger cut a promo about Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler then beats Chris Masters via ankle lock; Edge and Christian defeated Brodus Clay and Del Rio after Edge pinned Clay with a spear. (PWI)

This recent TV Week article shows something many people who work in WWE have been aware of for a long time: World Wrestling Entertainment (key word WRESTLING) doesn't believe they are a wrestling company. They went to great lengths to get TV Week to either rewrite a headline saying Drew Carey was being inducted into a "Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame" or remove the article with the OFFENSIVE headline. TV Week chose the latter. If this seems absurd to you too, send your comments to steviej@angrymarks.com or leave them @angrymarks on Twitter and we'll read your responses on this week's episode of Thursday Night AMP.

1:00 PM ET. Here are this weekend's WWE house show results from Newark: John Morrison vs. Ted DiBiase: Morrison wins with Starship Pain; Santino/Kozlov vs. Zak Ryder/Primo: Santino hits the Cobra on Primo for the win; Great Khali vs. Zack Ryder: quick squash, Khali hits the choke-powerbomb for the win; Daniel Bryan vs. Tyson Kidd: Bryan wins with the Lebell Lock; Evan Bourne vs. Dolph Ziggler: Bourne goes to the top for AirBourne, but Vickie crotches him for the DQ; The Miz vs. Randy Orton-Steel Cage match for the WWE championship: Alex Riley comes in from the crowd and distracts Orton while Miz escapes for the win; Maryse and the Bellas vs. Kelly Kelly, Gail Kim, and Eve: Eve hits swinging neckbreaker for the win; Sheamus/CM Punk vs. Triple H/John Cena: Triple H catches Sheamus for the Pedigree while Punk gets caught in the AA. Cena pins Punk. (PWI)

Eddie Edwards will make his first title defense on April 1st in Atlanta, GA against TV Champion Christopher Daniels. The next night he'll team with Davey Richards to face Charlie Haas & Shelton Benjamin. (PWI)

BJ Whitmer made his first appearance for Heartland Wrestling Association on Friday night. (PWI)

Micro Championship Wrestling (with Hulk Hogan) tapes again this week on March 22nd at Wild Bill's Dance Club & Concert Hall in Duluth, Georgia. Tickets are $10 in advance or $15 at the door. (PWI)

Chris Jericho makes his Dancing With the Stars debut tonight teaming with former champion Cheryl Burke. (PWI)

Due to college basketball coverage there's no ROH on HDNet tonight. The show returns next Monday and concludes its HDNet run the week after. (PWI)

CHIKARA wants everyone to know that despite the tragedy in Japan, Team Michinoku Pro (Hakushi, Great Sasuke and Dick Togo) will still be part of King of Trios. (CP)

Kofi Kingston talks to The Well Versed. A good read.

Wrestlers scheduled for the March 30th WrestleManiart event in Atlanta, GA are Alberto Del Rio, Booker T Daniel Bryan, Jerry Lawler, John Morrison, Vickie Guerrero, Ezekiel, JTG, Tyler Reks, Beth Phoenix, Trent Barreta, David Otunga, Heath Slater, Tamina, Natalya, Tyson Kidd, David Hart Smith, Alicia Fox, Santino Marella, Vladimir Kozlov, Melina, Curt Hawkins, Zack Ryder, Hornswoggle and Matt Striker.

Abdullah the Butcher MAY be announced for the WWE Hall of Fame on Raw tonight (PWI) but that's not a 100% guarantee.

WWE Raw will tape at the Nassau Coliseum on June 13th. (PWI)

4:30 PM ET. WWE has announced a supershow for June 18th at the Izod Center in East Rutherford, New Jersey with a bell time of 7:30 PM ET. (PWI)

Apparently GoFightLive has a new competitor. Check out this excerpt from their press release.

World Wrestling Network (WWN) now proudly enters the iPPV era with Dragon Gate USA (DGUSA), EVOLVE and Full Impact Pro (FIP) under its umbrella. WWNLive.com will be your destination for the finest wrestling and quality streams on the Internet.

WWN was founded in 2001 by Sal Hamaoui and was immediately at the forefront of Internet streaming and VOD platforms. In 2003, WWN moved its efforts to DVD production and replication with the once acclaimed Ring Of Honor series and currently with DGUSA, EVOLVE, Full Impact Pro and SHIMMER. WWN has returned to streaming video, this time with live iPPV and Video On Demand. WWN will strive to deliver the highest quality streams.

"This is the culmination of 10 years of work," Hamaoui said. "We have dedicated countless hours in recent months to perfecting the iPPV platform and now we are finally ready to unveil WWNLive.com. It is obvious that iPPV is the next step for broadcasting an event and WWNLive.com will be at the forefront."

If you want to vote for Chris Jericho on Dancing With the Stars tonight, call 1-800-868-3409. And if you want to recap the show for the site, just drop an e-mail to steviej@angrymarks.com.
