Basically Marvez comes off as a proponent of UFC, and hopes that it will overcome the hurdles of anti-violence advocates. Only little morsle of info is that UFC will begin promoting Pancrase here in the US starting in March. Other info from other sources: - According to the Wrestling Chatterbox, the Public Enemy have signed with WCW. They will start on TV in January, with 12/9 being their last ECW Arena show. - Also according to the WC, in the wake of SMW's implosion, Buddy Landell will head to the WWF (starting at the next tapings). The Headbangers will get a WWF tryout. [Semi-related note: the Heavenly Bodies have already worked out a deal with ECW.] - WWF Magazine hints at Steve Austin coming in ("WWF officials have had talks with a Hollywood blond, although no deal is inked") and at Jeff Jarrett returning ("at WrestleMania 12, anything can H - A - Double P - E - N"). The Informer also infers that "Avatar" Al Snow is working as a trainer of sorts for WWF wrestlers, teaching them new moves. - The WWF Slammys are back. They will be awarded as part of WM weeekend, according to an ad in the WWF Mag. [However, one of the Slammys advertised, "Best Newcomer," was awarded instead on the Action Zone today.... to Ahmed Johnson. Maybe the Slammys won't happen afteralll.....] - King Kong Bundy has "retired" according to AOL. - Regardless of what you read in TidBits, the Smoking Gunns are still the WWF Tag Team champions.
