Hall of Fame Rumors – It’s that time of the year where we’re talking about rumors for the WWE Hall of Fame. This year the rumors are Bill Goldberg, The Dudley Boys, Ivory and Bam Bam Bigelow. Allegedly, Kid Rock is the celebrity consideration. Kill me.

Batista has spoke to the WWE and Vince about returning to the company, and he’s wanting more than just a one-off appearance. His potential return seemingly delays his headlining option.

Will Osprey/ROH Update – Will Osprey doesn’t really seem to be the kind of guy that likes to stick around long term in any one location. He was about to sign a contract with IMPACT Wrestling, before bailing on the deal at a live t.v. taping to sign with New Japan. Osrpey then signed an exclusive deal to appear stateside with ROH Wrestling. However now that the deal is about done, Osprey is now once again considering leaving ROH. The current leaning is that Osprey will be taking indy bookings once again after his ROH deal expires. He may still remain with ROH but it won’t be exclusive.

Quick Hits – Shawn Michaels, Kevin Nash and The Undertaker are being advertised for the 25th Anniversary of RAW at the Manhattan Center. Cody Rhode’s ten thousand seat venue experiment has been whittled down to Chicago. Randy Orton is said to be very happy with his position in the WWE, because he doesn’t work that often and still makes millions of dollars a year.
