 | [disclaimer]THESE ARE ONLY RUMORS AND SPECULATION[/disclaimer]
- The new re-launch date for World Championship Wrestling is scheduled for June 13th from the Patriot Center in Fairfax, VA.
Following the June 13th show, tentative dates to follow are June 20th from the Coliseum in Jacksonville, FL and June 27th from the Stabler Arena in Bethlehem, PA. These dates are only tentative, and may change
- Don't count on seeing Goldberg in The WWF or new WCW. It looks as though Goldberg will sit out the remaining two years on his Time Warner contract. Goldberg and Steve Austin's contracts expire at about the same time. The two are friends and have discussed running a PPV match against each other when their contracts expire and splitting all the money and then signing with The WWF. Of course, this can't happen for 2-2 1/2 years so don't hold your breath because who knows what the wrestling landscape will look like then.
- It is doubtful Sting will accept a buyout of his contract by Time Warner/AOL so don't count on seeing him in the WWF/WCW anytime soon.
- The rumors of HBK's return happening tonight have somewhat elevated to a scenerio in which HBK will align with Linda McMahon and Mick Foley to have a stable vs. stable feud with Vince, Austin, and Triple H during the absence of The Rock. With the lack of babyfaces who are majorly over at the current point in time, this wouldn't be the worse road to take. Although, this is merely a rumor as of now.
- There is a small chance that Austin will feud with Chris Benoit as the WWF officials feel Benoit could get over as a babyface in full effect taking on the recently turned heel, Steve Austin. While The Rock is gone, like mentioned above, many possibilities will be considered as the WWF needs to use this time without a major babyface, with the exception of maybe Undertaker and Jericho, to get over some up and coming mid-card babyfaces like the Chris Benoit's and Chris Jericho's.
