MAJOR PAPER WORKING ON STORY
A major newspaper is working on a story
about the oriented content of RAW.
The story will concentrate on the recent
adult content, including the Goldust/Luna
characters, the Steve Austin beer drinking,
Sable's bikini, and Shawn Michaels groping
himself while dancing in his underwear.
The article will point out the inconsistency
of having a show with oriented content
sponsored by toy companies.
The last time wrestling received this kind
of mainstream attention was when several
papers ran stories about the WWF steroid
and scandals.
The story is tentatively expected to appear
on Monday, December 15.

Vince will be airing a RAW interview soon, where he talks about WCW,
Hulk Hogan, steroids, and other topics. The WWF is going on with their,
"WWF Attitude" gimmick in '98. Expect a lot of things to happen in '98 that
will shock the wrestling world from the WWF.

LOD has now worked out a deal to only do PPV's and Raw only. However
they would do, if asked, the MSG house shows. They were on the RAW tapings
on Tuesday night.

Look for a Mero/Dude Love feud, with Sable going to Dude Love. As many
have seen, Sable and Dude Love have been kissing and other things. Last
night at a house show in Bangor, ME, Sable was forced to leave ringside, but
then came back to not only help, but kiss Dude Love behind Mero's back.
This has been happening at a lot of shows.

The Bulldog given his opportunity
After not making it a secret that he wanting out of the WWF ever since the
incident at the Survivor series, the British Bulldog is now recieving that
opportunity.
Vince McMahon and the World Wrestling Federation has given Davey Boy
Smith a 30 day window of opportuntiy in which he is free to negotiate a deal
with any other wrestling organization he choses.
Whether it be the WCW, ECW, New Japan, All-Japan or any other is Smith
does not sign a deal within the 30 day period then the WWF retains his
services for the remainder of his contract which is a total of 4 years.
The mentality, from what I heard, is that Smith is more trouble then he
is worth. He is making $250,000 a year in the WWF and he shouldn't have a
rpoblem with getting a deal with Eric Bischoff to join his brother-in-law Bret
Hart in WCW.
