TWF News and Rumors 2004
Reply #45 - 11th Jan, 2004 at 3:38pm
There are no actions to perform.
-- Many observers have said that this week's edition of TWF RAW was among the best in TWF history. The writers were said to be delighted with how the program flowed. The only disappointment could be it's rating, which is still affected by people being on some form of break. However, we shall wait and see.

-- We also have an update on the xWa Parental Advisory event on Feb. 14th. Sources have informed us that the RWF matches have been taken off the event, and we are down to
- 2 WEW Matches
- 2 XWF Matches
- 2 XCW Matches
- 2 TWF Matches
- 2 xWa Matches
Leaving 10 matches all together. But, we could see an increase, possibly in the XWF and XCW's matches.

-- NJS's hamstring problem was the reason he was written out of RAW. He was scheduled to face The Terminator in the Hardcore Wall match, but The Shott willingly filled in.

-- Jason Davies and the Red Hoodie Crew were delighted that they are getting more time. Davies' turn on the Hoodie Crew on RAW was said to be one of the highlights of his career.

-- Frekishi was not actually injured from High Voltage's chokeslam, but was instead written off the show so he could rest.

-- A lot of TWF wrestlers were saddened to hear that the Nitro brand is being phased out in XCW. There are strong rumours that a Best of Nitro DVD set is being scheduled for release in the New Year.

-- Most TWF talent is extremely excited with the return of XCW in a few weeks.

-- In a talent meeting before RAW on Friday, which was the first TWF TV broadcast of 2004, Mr. Edwards was present to make a speech on what he feels the TWF will need to do to achieve a goal of surviving 2004. Edwards stated that some people will remember that the TWF struggled toward the end of 2003, and they hope that it will not happen in 2004.

There are no actions to perform.
-- The planned TWF Hall of Fame DVDs are being planned, and look like being awesome DVDs. As planned, there will be a box set featuring Marz, NJS, Mr. BIG, High Voltage & The Shott, and each DVD can be bought individually.
Mr. BIG is the first HoF to have his DVD details published, which should be happening within a few hours or so.

-- The post-RAW Awards show party was very well received, and many of the talent saw it as a way of letting their hair down after a long and tiring year. Many wrestlers reported feeling "refreshed and ready" for the New Year Partee PPV 2 days later.

-- Mr. BIG has insisted that he will now be off TWF TV right until he is cleared to wrestle. He has no plans to return to the TWF in any way shape or form until April/May. Many observers have said that the "surprise" angles have killed Mr. BIG's popularity and left many casting doubt on the injury.

-- The Assassin is making quite a name for himself as an in-ring performer. He is proving to be one of the biggest assets the company has and looks like one of the best products of the xWa Expansion, when he signed for the RWF.

-- Speaking of the RWF, many are expecting the xWa to buy-out it's contracts soon, although Mr. BIG is talking of possibly organising one last RWF show on the xWn as a 'good-bye'.

-- As part of the XCW's move to Thursday nights, some talent have realised that they technically have a 3-day weekend, without having to wrestle on Monday. Many wrestlers have said that this the biggest upside of losing Nitro. One wrestler was quoted as saying..."it was being fatigued or risk further injury...take your pick"

-- As reported by XCW, since appearing at New Year Partee, The AshTaker has gone down with a stomach bug. You have been seeing less of the AshTaker since September as it was feared he had 'the big C' of some kind, but it was mis-reported, but he should be back to full fitness within a few weeks.

-- Since Nitro's axing, more wrestlers have spoken of their relief of getting the day off. Many said wrestling a match at a PPV and then another one the night after can lead to more injuries. One wrestler was quoted as saying "I'm happy...the more time to sort out the ladies the better".

-- The Monday Nitro DVD is among many DVDs being released by the TWF in a few months...the schedule is looking a little like this:
TWF Dangerously Serious - 13/1
TWF PayBack - 27/1
TWF Hall of Fame Boxset - 17/2
The Very Best of Monday Nitro - 2/3

-- Mr. BIG, Frekishi and High Voltage might, it appears, to have patched a few disagreements up. Mr. BIG and Marz were also seen talking earlier today, along with many TWF superstars, as they were chillin' around lunchtime at a football pitch in Bridgend. Other superstars present were The Shott, The Vamp, JCVS, Adam Taylor, Disko Stu and Gareth Cole.

-- TWF RAW this week was cancelled because all of the South Wales Police based in the Bridgend area were on call for the Celtic Warriors vs. Wasps match. There was not enough security provision, so the event was cancelled. This news was announced on Thursday morning, and the event has been moved back to February. All current tickets will be valid.

-- At the match, which saw Wasps run out 17 - 11 winners, Mr. BIG, The Shott, AKK, Jason Davies all occupied a section of the stand, along with friends, where as Frekishi and Mr. Edwards were on the terraces. A record Brewery Field crowd of 12,000 was on hand for the match. (However, it does not defeat the overall record of 15,000+ for the Grit BasH on 11/06/03)

-- Mr. BIG was said to have a grim face on through out the match as it is believed his shoulder was aggravated in an incident a few days ago. Biggie was also understood to be angry at a few other people as well, but he coped well and was enjoying himself.

There are no actions to perform.
-- As we reported at the end of last year, some TWF and xWa Superstars will be present for the NHL and AHL all-star games in the first week of February. The xWn will carry both games live, and for free on the dates they are being held. Encore presentations will also be shown through-out the week.

-- Mr. BIG and Marz were seen in a polite discussion earlier on Friday. They were discussing a few matters that they haven't been able to do for quite a while since the much documented 'break-up' in July 2003.

-- Holly was spotted around Bridgend town on Friday, when Mr. BIG and High Voltage were walking around with friends. Holly passed the two, and when she discovered who she was talking to, the look on her face changed drastically. Many observers were quite surprised at Holly's reaction.

-- The TWF has signed a new deal which now enables them to use Sevendust for PPV and Wrestler Theme Songs. Sevendust are now under the TWF umbrella, along with Disturbed, Evanescence, Trapt and Linkin Park.

-- The TWF has also announced that the Monday Nitro name will be brought back for the annual Monday Nitro spectacular, at the Bridgend Recreation Centre on March 1st. It is rumoured that the event will be of matches seeing the TWF vs. XCW vs. XWF vs. WEW or something of the kind. Possibly 'xWa vs. The World'.

-- The TWF was extremely pleased with a promo recorded by Mr. BIG earlier today at Southerndown cliffs, hyping his return later this year. The whole theme was very well done and it has helped Mr. BIG's popularity, since it was killed with the TV appearances at the end of 2003, when he should have been rehabbing.

-- The TWF's deals regarding music have increased. A deal with Universal records was agreed this week, which enables rights to use artists such as 3 Doors Down and Saliva in musical elements such as PPV Music.

-- Mr. BIG was spotted in Minnesota at the NHL All-Star Game, wearing a Western Jersey with Pavel Datsyuk #23 on the back. Biggie is a passionate Red Wing supporter and was also at the Wings' 2-1 OT win against the Avalanche prior to the All-Star Game.

-- The TWF's schedule has been a dodgy as of late, but it should return to normal within 2 weeks.

Reply #51 - 18th Feb, 2004 at 8:40pm
There are no actions to perform.
(Grit BasH will be up tomorrow)
-- Mr. BIG was present backstage during last nights 2004 Brit Awards in London. He did not accompany anyone to the event but was seen to be having a good time. He did express a little sadness that Feeder didn't win the Best British Rock Act, but it did go to The Darkness, which made him happy. He says that April is a possible in-ring return date, but will make an appearance prior to that.

-- The Assassin is set to play a major role in a storyline leading up to No Way BacK in March. The Assassin has proven to be the biggest pick-up from the xWa Expansion last year and many people have said that his style has refreshed the TWF a lot.

-- NJS is extremely pleased with his xWa Championship reign and hopes he can hold on to the title for a little longer. However, not everyone is happy, one top-tier TWF star has said that NJS's reign has made the belt "a joke" and hopes NJS can drop the belt before he turns into another Mr. BIG from a few years ago, when he held the belt for 450+ days.

-- The NFL's Detroit Lions' are expected to announce this week that it will hold this year's Cyberslam event in May. The event will be held in the magnificent Ford Field, which was only completed a few years ago.

-- Marz did approach XCW a few weeks ago about a possible contract, but it was promptly rejected by XCW. The Shott's negotiations got an awful lot further, but he broke them off a few weeks ago.

-- The Shott will be present at tonight's Wales vs. Scotland soccer match. Mr. BIG has reportedly invited High Voltage, NJS, Lita and Frekishi to his home for a few drinks and to watch the game on his new 64" TV, which he purchased whilst on holiday in Dubai.

There are no actions to perform.
-- Mr. BIG and Scott Hudson taped an interview earlier today at TWF Towers which will air on tonight's TWF RAW. He is expected to address the Board of Directors situation in that interview. It will be in the SDWAS slot.

-- Sit Down With A Superstar will be returning soon to RAW. Mr. Smooth recently extended his contract to keep him in the TWF for another 2-3 years.

-- More No Way BacK details have been released. It appears that the TWF will use a song by an artist who has already done a PPV Theme, and the artists and song choice will be put to a public vote. A re-union ball will be held at the TJS Centre the night before No Way BacK, where EACH TWF wrestler will be present at. That includes Revolution, Team EV Ladies, Marz, Karl Davies, Holly etc. It will be a huge occasion. The event will have a strict ticket only policy for the public, with only 400-500 tickets being available.
As for the PPV itself, not much else has been released besides the fact a tribute will be payed to each wrestler we have lost since 2000.

-- Many TWF Wrestlers were glad to be back for Grit BasH this week after a few weeks hiatus. Many of the wrestlers worked the XCW Show, but some TWF talent were quoted as saying "the TWF experience is a lot different from the XCW one, but most of us love them both".

-- The final RWF show has been confirmed as taking place March 28th at the Rhys Reed Entertainment Centre, Wick. All 'current' RWF wrestlers (The Assassin, Frekishi, JCVS, The Vamp, Blade, Hawke, Dead, Ripper, The Boobs and co-owners The Shott and High Voltage) will be present, as will Mr. BIG who will be announcing the event alongside Scott Hudson, as Bobby 'The Brain' Heenan will return to the US for 2 weeks after No Way BacK. No card has been finalised at the time of writing.

-- Many TWF wrestlers were extremely impressed with the Deadly MindGames PPV. The TWF was reported to be saying that it has possibly beaten Summer Break in terms of match quality. The Assassin and The Bandit's match was talk of the locker room during RAW (which will be posted tonight/tomorrow).

-- Marz has recently gone up in people's estimation due to the fact he has not caused any trouble at all. Frekishi continues to prove a bit of hassle, and he could possibly not offered a contract extension when it runs out after Summer Break.

-- Grit BasH was cancelled this week because half the roster had caught a flu/cold/virual bug and were unable to wrestle. Those who had tickets to the show can either have them refunded or get free tickets to the next show at the Wick Community Centre in May/June.

-- The Monday Nitro Special was a nice change, as many friends were on opposing teams. The talk of the locker room however, was Hawke's disco dancing at the Brynteg Eisteddfod, which happened a little earlier. Many were amazed, but names such as High Voltage, Marz, NJS, The Shott and Frekishi were not surprised at the dance but very surprised at the amount of attention Hawke got from the local press and so on.
Mr. BIG was present backstage and was on hand at the Brynteg Eisteddfod to keep a few fans happy...more than that, he stole the show when he brought out his bass guitar and sang a track with Shamed Angel.

-- Michael Illitch is expected to confirm this week that TWF Cyberslam will be held at Ford Field, Detroit this week. The TWF will hold the RAW prior to it in Joe Louis Arena as well.

-- Mr. BIG's appearance at Deadly MindGames came about as the TWF said that since Biggie lives in Broadlands, literally 2 minutes away from the Air Wales/Air Wales Arena, the TWF decided to use him for the show, allbeit in a segment.

-- Mr. BIG, Jason Davies, The Shott and company were seen playing a healthy game of rugby today at Newbridge Fields, just behind the Bridgend Recreation Centre. Mr. BIG was said to be on song, making a mockery of The Shott on one play. Biggie was said to be very pleased with rehab and an in-ring return is even closer than people may think. Originally July was targeted, but April is being named as a return date to the ring!

-- There are strong rumours going around right now that Holly is possibly making a TWF comeback. All the more shockingly, the rumour states it could be as Mr. BIG's manager. However, many commentaries and interviews by superstars, such as Mr. Edwards, have made it clear Holly is not expected to return to the TWF full-time.

-- The 3rd TWF Album, imaginatively titled 'TWF Album 3' recently went to presses. 18 tracks are on the CD, featuring The Bandit, The Shott, The Assassin, Team EV and The Discipline Disciples theme songs. Also included is the old TWF Monday Nitro theme.

-- Metallica are said to be producing the No Way BacK theme song. It is rumoured to be 'No Leaf Clover' from 99's 'S&M' or 'The Memory Remains' from 97's ReLoad. Nothing is quite sure at the moment however.

-- TWF this Wednesday are going to confirm Cyberslam @ Ford Field and also that they will release an update for TEW, once released.

-- TWF RAW was cancelled this week due to heavy snowfall overnight in the Bridgend area. Although it was cleared up in time for the Ulster vs. Celtic Warriors match later in the evening, the TWF production trucks couldn't drive safely all day, so RAW was cancelled.

-- Speaking of the Ulster vs. Celtic Warriors match, Mr. BIG and Jason Davies occupied some of the stand. The two were also on the sidelines of the Brynteg vs. Trinity College, Toronto Rugby match the following morning.

-- Frekishi, High Voltage, Gareth Cole and The Vamp have begun to dislike Mr. BIG. Frekishi has said that Mr. BIG is spending far too much time with the jocks despite him saying he will never turn into one. Many TWF wrestlers are siting it as jealousy. Biggie has responded by rightly saying he chooses who he wants to hang around with, not anyone else.

-- The Shott recently announced backstage that he is not moving to Blackpool, rather Broadlands with family, but will be out of the TWF following No Way BacK, but he WILL return.

-- High Voltage is possibly going to turn heel upon Mr. BIG's return.

-- The TWF did announce Cyberslam this week and a Press Release is now viewable in this forum.

-- The No Way BacK 2 Theme Song has now been confirmed as 'Stillborn' by Black Label Society.

-- xWa Xtreme Intentions II, the next xWa production, is rumoured to be held in the XCW Arena on June 27th. As usual, the event will be live on the Xtreme Wrestling Network (xWn).

-- Backstage, prior to this weekend's PPV, many sceptics believe will finally help nail the TWF an unhappy funeral. The feeling among wrestlers is that No Way BacK has to be GOOD for it to be a better show than Deadly MindGames, which was a real standout PPV.

-- There are very strong rumours that NJS's 'trump card' is 'Stone Kold' Karl Davies. Many believe this because he has been floating around TWF territory recently. As we reported a few weeks ago, Davies is actually finalising his appearance at TWF's 5th Birthday BasH on Saturday night.

-- Mr. BIG and High Voltage were seen relaxing on both Tuesday and Friday mornings. On Tuesday, the two men appeared for a quick game of ice hockey at the Air Wales Arena on Broadlands. Biggie was said to be very well, and scored the game's best goal by ducking beneath Frekishi and slotting it past Adam Taylor in goal. On Friday, the two men were chilling by playing rugby and football/soccer in the shadows of the Brynteg Arena. Both men were in extremely good spirits as well.

-- Expect some kind of stab at the England rugby team at No Way BacK, regardless of the score line against Wales on Saturday.

-- The newly constructed George Wimpey Arena on Broadlands is expected to host Against All Odds on June 13th. The Brynteg Arena is scheduled to mark the end of the school year by playing host to TWF Total Chaos on July 18th.

There are no actions to perform.
-- The TWF, like XCW, has seen a gap in the market in Asia, and there is a very good chance that the xWa will go on tour there later this year. Mr. BIG, whilst on vacation there in Dubai, has a few sites in mind and may even get the blessing of the Sheik of Dubai.

-- Mr. BIG and High Voltage were seen having an argument today, as well as BCW wrestler The Protégé who is expected to debut in the TWF within the next few weeks. HV and The Protégé were both seen as the executors of the argument and Biggie was unable to get his point across, which angered much of the locker room. One wrestler said "Getting your point across is okay, but letting the other guy get his across is just as important".

-- Many TWF superstars were seen at a Bridgend bar on Tuesday night. Mr. BIG, Adam Taylor, Atomically Kool Kat, 'Stone Kold' Karl Davies, Jason Davies, Holly, Stephen Dimmock, Todd McFarlene and Josh Blanche were all seen drinking and having a good time. Mr. BIG was seen conversing with everyone in the Pub, including Holly.

-- Mr. BIG's return has brought some mixed reaction from the locker room. Some are worried that his return will kill some people's air time, whilst lower-carded wrestlers, particularly Blade and Joe Whelan are pleased because Biggie has often aided lower-carded wrestlers break out. Names such as High Voltage spring to mind when such a statement is uttered.

-- Mr. BIG is also not expected to compete in any in-ring action prior to Easter HeAT. Mr. BIG's feud with Frekishi was actually meant for High Voltage, because HV and Frekishi were meant to have a tlC match at Summer Break, until High Voltage made a decision to retire, but then return for action at Summer Break.

-- There is increasing talk, considering Sumo Samurai's return to the TWF, that many 'old-timers' could be returning in the run-up to Summer Break V at the TWF Arena in August. 'Stone Kold' Karl Davies is one name being mentioned.

-- The Shott also announced this week backstage that despite not moving to Blackpool, he will be leaving the TWF around Easter HeAT to set up a new base in Broadlands, near Mr. BIG and also to start a family...lucky bugger. lol.

-- Strong rumours say that Metallica are to provide the TWF Easter HeAT theme song...probably 'The Unforgiven' from 1991's Metallica [The Black Album].

(Edit: 2/2/2004)
-- Many TWF wrestlers have commented on Mr. BIG's return to the locker room. On RAW last week, Mr. BIG appeared in front of the locker room and informed them that he is still the same old Uncle Biggie, except he feels a lot better and a lot happier than he did before. High Voltage and Frekishi kept laughing through the whole piece, mainly because they found out that they will work an angle with Biggie leading up to Easter HeAT. Many members of the locker room were angry at this and HV and Frekishi have become a little more conscious of their behaviour.

-- High Voltage has been stepping out to events with a hot blonde, and it looks to be a permanent romance. The Vamp has also found love, but with someone who's name we do not know. It's quite ironic that the only men left in the locker room without partners are Mr. BIG, The Shott, Jason Davies and Marz, who have all had female managers. Gareth Cole is an exception.

-- Jean Claude Van Slam is expected to be interviewed for a segment on Soccer AM's All Sports Show to be aired next week.

-- Marz has gone up in people's estimation recently by behaving backstage and staying out of harm's way. He was also early for last week's RAW, which was a first.

-- Mr. BIG and High Voltage have had some genuine animosity in the past few days and it is believed to date back to Grit BasH. HV was not supposed to spear Biggie, but said he did it "because he couldn't resist it". Frekishi was said to have encouraged HV to do this stunt, which ended in Biggie getting a neck injury which required medical clearance. Biggie is now fine, but he is expected to get a manor of revenge on HV soon.

Reply #58 - 9th May, 2004 at 10:57am
There are no actions to perform.
-- Mr. BIG and High Voltage have had some backstage heat recently. This apparently centres around both men's love life. HV is angry that Mr. BIG apparently "told the locker room he can't get a girlfriend" (regarding Sarah...see further down on that) and was very angry when Mr. BIG informed the locker room at Easter HeAT that he was taken. Initally, it was rumoured that The Protégé had to prove to HV that Mr. BIG was not bullshitting, but that has since been proven to be untrue. All of the talent backstage have stated that Mr. BIG never made such a statement in the first place and was summed up by one wrestler as a "petty storm in a teacup".

-- High Voltage got his "revenge" by spreading pretty malicious rumours about Mr. BIG. HV, Frekishi and Gareth Cole's behaviour in the past few weeks has shocked many TWF staff members, including the Road Agents. There's a good chance that when HV jobs the TWF World Championship, he will be asked to leave. Frekishi is being given a lot of leeway because he is friends with a lot of the bPA old-boys, who loyalty is pretty good toward him. Plus he and Biggie go a lot further back than Biggie and HV do.

-- Marz has been making quite an impression on the TWF locker room on his return to the company. Mr. BIG has apparently got Marz in high regard because he has behaved appropriately since coming back and has not caused any problems what so ever. The two still have issues, but Marz has got on well with most people and in situations that, if they took place 2 years ago, he would have spoke out apon, he did the wise thing and not do so.

-- There was also a VERY strong rumour that Mr. BIG was to re-unite Future-Generation X [FX] with Marz, 'The Fox' Gareth Fox, NJS and 'Road Dogg' Jessie Rogers. Biggie was seen speaking to Fox and Rogers this week, but there is a lot of discussion as to whether the group would actually work given Marz and NJS's very rocky status and whether it is actually needed. The TWF has suffered a ratings dip in recent weeks, but many say that's just because it was moved around on various channels. Sky Sports moved Grit BasH last week, for example, from Sky Sports 1 to Sky Sports 2 at the very last minute. Even the Sky Digital Planner didn't know this until 1 hour from air time.

-- The Shott's walk-out was a worked shoot. The TWF knew he was expected to leave and to vacate the championship, but they did not know when or how he would explain it. High Voltage was due to get the TWF title regardless of The Shott's situation.

-- NJS was reportedly a little angry with the decision to hand Hawke the xWa Championship in his absence whilst getting ready for his marriage to Lita in a few weeks. NJS felt the title should have gone to someone who could have kept a hold of the championship a little better. Rumours are floating around that an XCW Wrestler may hold the championship after Hawke's reign.

-- NJS and Lita's marriage takes place on Saturday, May 22nd in Miami, Florida. Most of the TWF and XCW Rosters are expected to attend. Mr. BIG is Best Man, whilst Lita's maid of honour is Torrie Wilson. Most of the OMEGA old boys, such as The Hurricane, Shannon Moore and the Hardy Brothers are also due to attend the ceremony.

-- The 'Retro' Shows on April 21st and 23rd were huge successes and there's a chance that Retro Week will be held once more this year.

-- The TWF has also been negotiating to have an event broadcast on the xWn on July 4th 2004. The event, which would be held on American Independence Day, is expected to have an 'All-American' Theme to it. It's probably going to be a one-off event and early indications say it could be called 'The American Tradition' or most likely, 'Scars and Stripes'. Expect an 'All-American' theme and main event.

-- TWF has also been negotiating with contacts in the Middle East a tour in January/February 2005. Dubai is almost certain to hold at least one event. Mr. BIG, whilst on vacation in February claimed the place was an "experience" and said the people of Dubai would be ecstatic to host a TWF event. The famous Jumeirah Beach is being touted as home to a huge event.

-- Team EV are pretty pleased with the push they have been getting. They were persistent rumours prior to the Tag Team Championship reign that the stable was to be split apart, but this is not expected to happen.

-- TWF is unsure whether or not to bring back the Cruiserweight or Xtreme Championships. The Cruiserweight division would be one of the strongest on TWF TV, but the original slated champion, Jody Fleisch recently shocked the wrestling world by announcing his retirement. The Xtreme Division would be extremely unsettled due to the very nature of the 'Xtreme' Matches, but the TWF recently revised the 'Xtreme' genre by adding the Ambulance, Chair Shot Roulette, Double Tables, Explosion, Revenge, Stretcher and WarGames matches to the strand, meaning that defences may come easier.

-- The TWF also announced during that meeting that it has revised the rules of a Revenge Match. It is still No Holds Barred and Decisions Count Anywhere...but it is now a match where Submission is the only way to win.

-- From next week, the TWF will be using new lighting ideas. The Protégé, who had worked on many theatre productions and former head of the xWa Production Team, sat down with Mr. BIG and the Production Team this week and ran threw a few ideas with them. They went down as a success and Mr. BIG even lent a hand this week during AS and A2 Level Exams with The Protégé.

-- The Vamp is still dating, NJS is of course getting married and Mr. Edwards has a long-term girlfriend. High Voltage was recently seen stepping out with friend and model Sarah and he'd like to take the relationship further. It was on that occasion that the rumours about his "girlfriend" began. Marz and Frekishi are both happy being single and The Shott is also contemplating starting a family life. Mr. BIG...as always, is single.

There are no actions to perform.
-- Prior to this week's Grit BasH, on Tuesday night at the TWF wrestler's hotel; Mr. BIG and NJS addressed the roster. Mr. BIG informed them that Mr. Edwards was still in Wales doing some business deals for the xWn and that he will join them for Cyberslam later in the week. NJS was basically there to inform those under contract to XCW that the company has not gone under and xWa Xtreme Overdose II is still expected to take place.

-- NJS's marriage to Lita took place today at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida today. Many observers said it was a wonderful ceremony and Mr. BIG's speech at the reception was excellent. The reception was held, incidentally, at Mr. BIG's Orlando home.

-- There are, as of now, no plans to use NJS on TWF TV. He is expected to have a nice layoff having not missed a TWF show in many years. His return is unknown at this point, but it will be guarded under more secrecy than Mr. BIG's, which many regarded as a fiasco.

-- The Shott could be back rather soon. He has settled into his new home near Mr. BIG's current home and the two have got a long even better than expected. They also recently opened a website together, which is a success. However, Mr. BIG has said to have placed a bid on a £375,000 7-bedroom house in Margam. If he is successful, his parents will get ownership of his house in Broadlands and he will move to Margam. This is all un-confirmed.

-- Frekishi, who has been causing some backstage heat recently, is also due back on TWF TV very soon. He is expected to continue his feud with Mr. BIG. Frekishi was last seen at Easter HeAT being thrown off the Cell by High Voltage, injuring himself whilst landing on the golf buggy.

-- Strong rumours pertain to a HUGE re-design of the TWF Web to go down this summer.

-- AM Radio's track "Taken For A Ride" is strongly rumoured to be the theme song for TWF Against All Odds.

-- The day before TWF wrestlers were due to set off for the US; Mr. BIG, NJS, Lita and Mr. Edwards sat down for a meal at a local restaurant. To their surprise, the first person they saw walking through the door was Holly. She did not acknowledge the party and instead continued talking with her party. She was overheard saying some harsh things about Biggie, but Biggie simply said "I don't care".

-- The Protégé is expected to have a rather long absence due to family problems.

-- Gareth Cole has become one of the least liked people in the locker room at the moment due to his un-provoked dislike of Mr. BIG. It's said to stem back from an argument that he and HV had where HV brought up Mr. BIG's bass guitar. Cole has since taken up Bass and has been acting like the better player despite every other TWF superstar saying that Biggie has done extremely well despite only playing for around 5 months.
