Now that Rocky's had a taste of Hollywood I think he wants more. AFAIK his next run with the company will be a short one in order to accomodate some more movies. I'm not a wrestling "insider" or anything but I keep up with the news and it is the opinion of most people that he won't be back for long.

EDIT: The Four Horsemen.. I highly doubt Benoit or Jericho would be in the revived version, although it would be nice. Benoit is on SmackDown and involved heavily with Angle; additionally lately the WWE has been looking to make the brand extension more legitmate, which would prevent Benoit from switching shows. As for Jericho.. he and Trips supposedly hate each other, but anything's possible.

The Old Hogan has been back a while. I simply can't wait to see The Rock wrestle again.

**Shiori** · February 1st, 2003

"Superfly" Jimmy Snuka was and is still the only wrestler I ever idolized.

I'll never forget his cage matches.

Strider · February 1st, 2003

the one thing i dont understand is why they always announce comebacks, for once, i want to be surprised when somebody makes a ppv appearance like in the old days

I have a feeling that Stone Cold will screw Rock in the Rock VS Hogan match at No Way Out.

This will lead to their brawl at WMX9. Also from there, a Hogan vs Vince match is also possible at WMX9. The so far scheduled main event will no doubt be cool. Kurt, a pure athlete against the mammoth Brock.

WMX9 is gonna be hellota fun!

BTW, anyopne wnats to know Stone Cold's comment on The Rock in the newest RAW magazine?

I tried to find the magazine at Walgreens and Jewel but they only had the one with Lesnar and Stratus on the front. Did you guys order it online or should I check the stores again?

Well, I'll go back and look for it again. I tried on Wednesday so they might not have put them on the shelves. Thanks for the offer, though.

does that mean that they've separated the wrestlers to different shows, even though its all one federation?

Yes, that's exactly what they've done. A while back (when Flair was in charge of RAW and McMahon was in charge of SmackDown!), Linda McMahon announced a brand extension and on that night's RAW they had a draft. Flair and McMahon took turns picking 10 wrestlers for their shows, with the rest being assigned via a lottery. A wrestler on RAW would not appear on SmackDown! and vice versa, although in the months after the draft, some wrestlers switched brands (like D-Von coming to RAW to bring back the Dudleys). In my opinion they did a terrible job of balancing talent, as SmackDown got I believe almost all of the crusierweights and many top names. It depends on which wrestlers you like; for me the only reasons to watch RAW are Booker T and the Dudleys. Right now both brands come together for the PPVs (but wrestlers still wrestle members of their respective brand, excluding the Rumble of course) but I heard talks of holding separate PPVs are taking place. I really don't know why the even did the brand extension.. the only reason I can think of is giving up-and-coming wrestlers the chance to shine on TV since people like Taker and HHH can only appear once a week.

EDIT: As for Heat and Velocity, I believe Heat is dominated by RAW and Velocity by SmackDown!, although it could be the other way around.. I never watch them. For a compete list of RAW superstars, head here; for SmackDown!, go here.

yeah, they should have, but the main reason they split the guys is cause there were just too many of them, after they got the guys in wcw and ecw they had an excess of what... 30 people? Its lame but its understandable, but they shoulda just started making another subdivision of WWE for other people
