— WWE announced this afternoon that they have released developmental talent Russell Simpson. Simpson was signed out of Booker T’s PWA promotion and he has been working with Ohio Valley Wrestling.
— Today’s Miami Herald has an interview with Shawn Michaels. While he admits that he enjoys Degeneration X, he says that Hunter (Triple H) is ready to move on. Michaels said, â<80><9c>I’m fine with whatever because for me it’s always a creative issue — as long as it’s stuff that is amusing and funny. Doing the DX thing, I have to poke fun at my age and things like that because I would insult anybody thinking I’m kind of a hip rebel back when I was 30.”
