WWE Legends DVD, Batista On UK Talk Show, Dykstra On His Release

- WWE are releasing a DVD version of their popular 24/7 Legends of Wrestling Roundtable discussion show, which see’s guys like Jim Ross, Mick Foley, Tazz, Michael Hayes and other discuss various aspects of the wrestling business in a laid back setting. They are often smoking on set etc. This 3-pack DVD set entitled WWE The Legends of Wrestling, will focus on the episodes about Ric Flair, Lex Luger, Jerry”The King”Lawler and Junk Yard Dog. The DVD is out in January.

- WWE star Batista was just on the UK tea-time talk show “Paul O’Grady” in a quick segment. He seemed a little distant and defensive as Batista always does. The highlight was when a small kid asked him why he collects wussy lunch boxes. Batista replied saying it may be wussy for men that aren’t comfortable with their sexuality but he is. He also admitted that he isn’t a very good trash talker and described The Rock and Ric Flair as good talkers because they had good sense of humor.

- Recently released WWE wrestler Kenny Dykstra posted this on his Myspace:

First I would just like to say thank you to everyone who left a comment or message and for the support. It is greatly appreciated. Believe it or not I actually am happy to be gone from WWE. I don’t have to do things around their schedule and I don’t have to answer to anybody. I have never felt so free in my entire life. I had been working with WWE since I was 16 so I’ve never really known anything else. I did have fun with WWE but the creative side never used me properly or really gave me an opportunity to get over. it sucks when you know your better than the majority and you’re only used to make people look good.

Will I stay wrestling? I’m not sure. WWE kind of puts a bad taste in your mouth after all the politics and garbage that can go on. I may try to go to TNA but we will see. I have 90 days to think about it and possibly try. although I wont rule it out. I do feel like they could use me much better. I would also like to have some matches with guys like A.J. and Kurt and Joe and Christian. plus Sting has always been my favorite so to work with him would be great too. but I guess I will wait it out and see what direction I try to go in. as for WWE I am glad to be gone. i thank them for everything and wish them the best too.”
