-- WWE'S HOLIDAY MESSAGE: WWE sent out a "Special Holiday Message" to their email list. Inside is an animated video of the WWE roster having a Christmas party centered on shutting The Authority (Triple H & Stephanie McMahon) out of the party. [ LINK: Video HERE ]

-- NXT STAR SUBJECT OF DOC: A documentary focused on the career of "Prince" Fergal Devitt (now Finn Balor in WWE NXT) aired on Irish television Wednesday night. The doc catalogued his backstory from training in the U.K., then following him around in Japan. Luke Gallows was featured heavily, as the pair shared accommodation and were part of the Bullet Club stable. It was a pretty interesting story, and not suitable for WWE's PG audience. He is not very well known in Ireland, but the doc got a prime time 8:00 p.m. GMT timeslot. [ Thanks to PWTorch reader Gerry for the recap ]

-- LAWLER VISITS MEMPHIS TEAM: "The King of Memphis" Jerry Lawler stopped by the Memphis Tigers college football team's bowl practice on Wednesday. Lawler presented coach Justin Fuente with a replica WWE Title belt and spoke to the team prior to facing the BYU Cougars at the Miami Beach Bowl next Monday, December 22. [ Thanks to David in Memphis. Photo from the Tigers Facebook page. ]

-- BUFF BAGWELL BOOKING: Buff Bagwell headlines Gulf Coast Wrestling's "Slam Saturday" show on January 31 in Morgan City, Louisiana. The event takes place at Morgan City Junior High, with concessions going toward the school.

-- LATEST JOEY & CANDICE SHOW: The latest edition of Joey Ryan and Candice LaRae's YouTube show features the California Crew of the Young Bucks, Christopher Daniels & Kazarian, and Joey & Candice traveling to a recent Dreamwave Wrestling show in Illinois. It's life on the independent circuit. [ Video URL: http://youtu.be/Urz7NIqOSpA ]
