For those who saw that WWE added a new December PPV to the schedule and expected it would be an ECW show, it's been revealed that it will be called "December to Dismember" and will be held at the Augusta-Richmond County Civic Center in Augusta, Georgia on December 3rd. (411)

Congratulations to RapReviews writer Adam Bernard - not only did he get to interview the lovely Candice Michelle for Soak Magazine but WWE picked up the story and mentioned him in their website article. That's quite a coup!

Speaking of WWE divas Ashley Massaro posted on her MySpace page that she was in a minor car accident on her way home from LaGuardia Airport. Apparently Ashley's fine but it just seems like there's no stroke of bad luck she can't be found by or hit with these days.

WWE ratings are in and as usual Raw performed strong this week, scoring a 4.1 off hours of 3.9 and 4.2. AM Raw got an 0.5, which means TNA Impact actually beat it for once - they got a 0.9 off the UFC lead-in last Thursday. Last Friday's Smackdown finished with a 2.1. (PWI)

If you're wondering why Kurt Angle was not in action on ECW tonight, it turns out that he didn't even work house shows over the last couple of days because his groin injury is actually a more severe tear than previously anticipated. That means whether he likes it or not, he's going to be out of action for a while longer - which given his health in general is probably for the best. (PWI)

In the only kind of long-term planning WWE even bothers to do these days, the Peoria, IL show for September 29th has now been moved to January 9th, 2007. WWE has also changed it from a Raw house show to a Smackdown taping/ECW live show. (PWI)

There's been some news lately on the long-awaited (well, at least by Hulkamaniacs) new three-disc Hogan DVD set. As it turns out the European release and the Wal*Mart special edition will both have a fourth disc not included at other retail outlets. Here is a list of what will appear on disc four courtesy of Wrestling Observer.

* Hulk Hogan vs. Tito Santana 3/24/80 MSG.
* Hulk Hogan vs. Sonny Rogers & Chuck Greenly (one of his first AWA TV appearances in the summer of 1981).
* Hulk Hogan vs. Terry Funk from Saturday Night's Main Event.
* Hulk Hogan vs. Harley Race from Saturday Night's Main Event.
* Hogan wins 1990 Royal Rumble.
* Hogan vs. Earthquake SummerSlam 1990.

The Observer also had the following list of matches for the upcoming Roddy Piper DVD.

Personally I think the Piper release will be much more interesting but I'll buy the four-disc version of Hogan just to get his match with Earthquake from SummerSlam 1990 on DVD. (R.I.P. John Tenta.)

For those who have been following the saga of Bryan & Vinny returning to the ring the weekend of WWE's Unforgiven video, there is a fifteen minute YouTube training video showing both men shaking off the rust in the ring of friend and fellow former professional wrestler Buddy Wayne. Even if you know nothing about any of these men or the Poder Empire, watch it anyway for a laugh and a half~! The latest rumor from Bryan himself is that so much money has been raised that their "BATTEL FOR THE EMPIRE" match may in fact be turned into an entire pro wrestling card. You can hear more about this on the latest free Bryan & Vinny show posted early Tuesday morning along with their recap of Raw and Guerreros Del Ring along with SONGS AND WHACKY SHOUTOUTS~!
