(2) WWE announcer Jim Ross published two new blogs at jrsbarbq.com this weekend covering the latest on WWE, The Rock, UFC 159, the NFL Draft, and other topics in the news.

(3) Former WWE/TNA wrestler Bobby Lashley has signed a multi-fight deal with an MMA promotion in India. Lashley's return fight is scheduled for June 7.

(4) 2013 WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley has endorsed the second edition of author Paul O'Brien's "Blood Red Turns Dollar Green."

Blood Red Turns Dollar Green Volume 2"This is even better than the first one. O'Brien is now the author of two really great wrestling novels. I cannot wait to see where this ...
Website for Writer Paul O'Brien
Foley's endorsement reads: "Paul O'Brien has done it again! But this time, he's done it even better. With sharply drawn characters that any wrestling fan will feel like they know, and non-fans will wish they did, O'Brien's second journey into the world of 1970s territorial wrestling depends less on wrestling action, and more on the surreal scenarios that his cast of wrestling misfits - noble and seedy, loyal and cut-throat, confident and desperate - provide him. Give it a try, and see if the name Shane 'Sugarstick' Montrose doesn't stay with you for a while. A must-read for any wrestling fan, and a should-read for any adventurous fan of crime-fiction."

(5) Jim Cornette is resurfacing as part of a new Internet show with Kenny Bolin. The "PTI-style" show is scheduled to debut in June.
