The British tabloid newspaper The Sun did a story regarding the drug suspension of Harry “D.H.” Smith entitled “WWE suspends Bulldog’s son.” It doesn’t reveal any new information regarding Smith’s suspension, but his deceased father the “British Bulldog” Davey Boy Smith is perhaps the most famous grappler to hail from England, so it’s pretty big news there.
Elijah Burke was on Ghosthunters live on Halloween night. During a scene where he was in the background trying to explain the Diva Search to someone, he noted that offering $250,000 to the winner was “dumb as dirt.”
There will be a “Survivor Series” After Party & Lilian Garcia “Quiero Vivir” Miami CD Launch at the Conga Bar in Miami, Florida right after the Survivor Series event on 11/18. WWE stars will likely be in attendance at the event so they can see their colleague perform. The Conga Bar is located next to the American Airlines Arena. Visit Lilian Garcia’s MySpace page at www.myspace.com/liliangarcia for more information on the event.
As noted earlier, Chris Masters was let go by WWE today. Regarding his suspension last week, a person in the known within WWE is absolutely certain that it wasn’t his second strike; more like his fourth. He has definitely been suspended on two occasions. He was also sent to rehab in the summer of 2006 due to a problem with painkillers. The belief at the time was that he had been suspended, but that wasn’t the case because he only had to serve a 30-day suspension when the Signature Pharmacy news hit as that was his first recorded offence. Also, Masters will have to come up with a new ring name now that he’s no longer employed by WWE; the ‘Chris Masters’ name is not his real name as it is trademarked by WWE.
