For now, WWE meeting with Destination America should be taken as a rumor but it definitely is making the rounds within the industry. Another source noted to us that they heard WWE floated the idea of airing NXT to Destination America but that's also not confirmed and we're not sure how far any talks went. We will keep you updated on any information that become available.

The story is false.
WWE's contract with NBC Universal gives Universal the exclusive right to all WWE TV properties on cable television. Destination America is owned by Discovery Communications and is not part of the Comcast/NBC/Universal family.
For those who asked, there is nothing to the story.

But Ariel says at 10:30 AM the day of the funeral, they're asking Piper's millions of fans to observe a moment of silence ... which they'll observe at the service as well.
A memorial will be held in L.A. August 17 at the Comedy Store in Hollywood, but that service will be private as well.

A limited edition version will be available in a coffin shaped box set, as pictured below. That will contain the new 5 disc DVD release and an exclusive Topps trading card of Undertaker.
Early indications are that this will be a worldwide offering, scheduled for release to the United Kingdom and the United States this November, following on to Australia this December.
The UK release date has been confirmed so far, which will be November 23rd. Fans in the UK can already pre-order the special box set for £56.76 with free shipping

Jericho asked why Vince called him Zeke and Woods laughed and said he nad no idea and nobody else did. Jericho asked if Vince thought he was Ezekial Jackson and New Day laughed again and Woods said he is, in fact, Ezekial Jackson but he lost a lot of weight. It was all laughs. Nothing serious

There's no options for me right now. None of the bigger promotions want me. Not ROH or TNA or Lucha Underground or WWE. How long until it just becomes masturbatory to keep wrestling? It's time to grow up. I don't want to be the sad old dude who has nothing else.
