- Hogan returned to the ring on the weekend, beating Earthquake by DQ
   in Los Angeles.

   - It looks like Hulk Hogan's "Urban Commando" (in which he plays an
   inter-planetary superhero mercenary) will co-star Mean Mark Callas.
   Mean Mark, who left the NWA a short while ago, will be joining the WWF
   in the near future and, much as with Zeus, Mark's film feud with Hogan
   will be translated to the ring.

   - Shawn Michaels should be back in a month or so.

   - Paul Diamond was *not* fired by the WWF. He's back from a brief
   absence.

   - After reporting that Owen Hart will join the NWA in January, there
   is now talk that he may actually make it in as early as late October.

   - Barry Windham is out until November, which means he won't be at
   Halloween Havoc.

   - Both the Master Blasters and Maximum Overdrive, NWA newcomer tag
   teams, have lost one member. Can't say I'm too upset.

   - The Toronto NWA card in October will take place on the 25th. The
   card will be headlined by Luger vs. Vicious. Undercard includes R'n'R
   Express vs. the Freebirds. I doubt I'll go, unless Ric Flair or Arn
   Anderson is on the card.

   - The tentative card for NWA's Halloween Havoc on October 27th is:
     * Sid Vicious vs. Sting (NWA World title match)
     * Doom vs. Arn Anderson & Ric Flair (NWA Tag straps match)
     * Lex Luger vs. Stan Hansen (US Title match)
     * Steiners vs. Nasty Boys (US Tag straps match)
     * Midnight Express vs. R'n'R Express
     * Tommy Rich vs. Silencer (formerly of Maximum Overdrive)
     * Terry Taylor vs. Blade Hunter
     * Southern Boys vs. Master Blasters (probably a new combo, since 1
       is gone)
     * Junkfood Dog vs. Moondog Rex (ooooohhhhh, gaaaaawwwwd!)
     * Freebirds vs. Youngbloods

   There's little doubt that Sting/Vicious will be terrible. But there
   are some good matches on the card.

   - Some stats on El Gigante (who is merifully absent on the PPV :-)):
   neck size - 20 inches, chest - 72 inches, waist - 48 inches, shoe size
   - 21 inches, T-shirt size - 5XL, wrestling ability - 0. Okay, so I
   added the last one. But I'll admit he has potential.
