Dave Meltzer wrote that Booker T quit over a month ago in the Wrestling Observer, but this makes it official. From www.WWE.com - "WWE has come to terms on the release of WWE Superstar Booker T and WWE Diva Sharmell as of October 27. We wish both Booker & Sharmell he best in all their future endeavors."
Yes, that's not a typo. The WWE page says October 27th. Regardess of being post-dated, the intent seems clear either way.
Another WWE.com release: "WWE has come to terms on the release of Raw Superstar Shawn Daivari. We wish Daivari the best in all his future endeavors."
And the hits just keep on coming from the WWE press mill - there's a story right now hinting that ECW & Smackdown may be merged. This is obviously a teaser for tonight's ECW on Sci-Fi, but read for yourself and judge what they're up to.
WWE.com has learned that several meetings have taken place between Acting SmackDown General Manager Vickie Guerrero and ECW General Manager Armando Estrada that, if ratified, would allow SmackDown and ECW Superstars to compete on Tuesday and Friday nights.
While nothing is signed as of yet, locker room sources say that this open door agreement between Vickie and Estrada will be discussed tonight, live on ECW on Sci Fi. No further details have been released, and when pressed for more information, Estrada was tight-lipped (a rarity in its own right).
“I have no news for you right now,” said Estrada. “But tonight on ECW on Sci Fi (10/9 CT), I will give some insight into these meetings.”
Last but not least Raw seems to have rebounded from last week's low. www.PWInsider.com indicates last night's show did a 3.3 rating last night off hours of 3.2 and 3.4.
