WrestlingRevealed.com has learned that the Rock was at the Academy Awards as a presenter.

The Rock (Dwayne Johnson) presented the award for Best Visual Effects. He made a joke about the scene from Raiders of the Lost Arc. The nominees were Transformer and Pirates of the Carribean. The Golden Compass ended up winning.

Watching him at these awards show should help kill rumors of his wrestling return, but for some reason, it doesn’t. Goes to show you how much wrestling fans want him back.

WrestlingRevealed.com has learned that FCW has secured a television deal.

FCW (Florida Championship Wrestling) has been picked up by Sun Sports. The first ever television taping for FCW will be this upcoming Thursday. The shows will be broadcast on television shortly thereafter.

This is good news for WWE as a television deal allows them to see how the developmental wrestlers do on a bigger medium. Having a television deal helped out OVW tremendously.

Also a smart move having the tapings be on Thursdays since they can send a few WWE wrestlers here and there to help out with television.

WWE stars do tapings on Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays. The rest of the time, they’re on the road doing house shows. Mid card wrestlers can be pulled from the house shows and sent down to FCW television.

Over the last few months, WWE has sent down wrestlers like John Cena and Rey Mysterio to give pep talks.

John Cena Black Sandals WWE just released some John Cena sandals. They’re also available in blue as well.

WrestlingRevealed.com has learned that Vince McMahon was invited by Congress to speak.

WWE chairman Vince McMahon was invited to speak at a congressional hearing on February 27, 2008. The hearing in Washington DC was meant to address to the health of athletes undermining the integrity of competition (basically steroids abuse).

Vince McMahon declined the invitation. He stated that his attorney was not available that day.

Smart move by Vince McMahon to not show up. He would have basically been made to look bad, especially considering there’s so many bad things that have happened in pro wrestling involving deaths and drugs over the past few months.

WrestlingRevealed.com has learned that Booker T has been working with the NBA for promotional reasons.

Booker T has been promoting his wrestling company, the PWA, through the NBA. More specifically, he has been promoting through his hometown NBA team, the Houston Rockets.

Pretty smart move by Booker T. He’s a smart businessman. The PWA is currently one of the top independent wrestling companies around. Always good to see pro wrestlers having other business ventures to fall back upon.

WrestlingRevealed.com has learned that John Cena will begin shooting his new movie on Monday.

Shooting begins on Monday for “12 Rounds”, the latest movie from WWE Films. The movie, which stars John Cena, will be shot in Louisiana. He isn’t expected to miss much time from WWE since he’s needed to help promote Wrestlemania.

On a side note, there were some wild rumors going around the internet that Al Pacino was going to be involved with this movie, but that has proven to be false.

John Cena 8-Bit T-Shirt Everyone’s been talking about John Cena’s new shirt. For us old school video gamers, this shirt takes us back.

WrestlingRevealed.com has learned that Voodoo Kin Mafia may be returning to WWE.

Kip James (formerly known as Billy Gunn) and BG James (formerly known as Road Dogg) have been telling people that they may be going back to WWE. The tag team division in WWE is pretty thin and inexperienced right now, so it would make sense to add a veteran team like the former New Age Outlaws. These two guys still perform as well as they used when they were a part of Degeneration X.

Interestingly enough, TNA management has informed them that they’re free to leave if they wished.

WrestlingRevealed.com has learned more information on the new wrestling promotion by Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff.

Within the past few days, reports surfaced about Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff starting up a new wrestling promotion. Well, it’s not the traditional wrestling promotion that most people think it will be.

Instead, it will be more of a reality TV show. Celebrities will train to become professional wrestlers. They would then be paired up against one another in matches.

Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff have currently been pitching the idea to several people. With the success of Eric Bischoff’s two reality TV shows, this does have a decent chance of coming to fruition.

Mick Foley/Eric Bischoff Book Package WWE has put together a great package featuring Mick Foley and Eric Bischoff. Foley’s book is always a good read. Bischoff’s book will surprise you with how smart he is.

WrestlingRevealed.com has learned that Nick Dinsmore did a segment in OVW where Eugene was just a dream.

Nick Dinsmore needed a creative way to return to his original “Mr Wrestling” gimmick of the “retarded wrestler” gimmick that he was doing in WWE (Eugene). So, they came up with a storyline where he would wake up and realize that Eugene’s entire time in WWE was just a dream of his.

Got to say that this is a brilliant idea. Continuity is a good thing. Maybe now we’ll get to see Nick Dinsmore being one of the best in-ring performers in the business again.

WrestlingRevealed.com has learned that the original plans for Floyd Mayweather involved MVP.

The idea was to have a tag team match at Wrestlemania. Floyd Mayweather would team up with MVP. Their opponents would be Oscar De La Hoya and Rey Mysterio.

Unfortunately, though, Oscar De La Hoya refused to be involved, so the idea was dropped. WWE then turned to the Big Show as a replacement. They also had to drop Rey Mysterio as well because of his injuries.

That tag team match would have been huge. It also would have made much more sense.

WrestlingRevealed.com has learned that Colin Delaney is still not under contract to WWE.

Despite being one of the more highlighted wrestlers on ECW, Colin Delaney does not have a long term contract with WWE. Right now, he’s getting paid per appearance.

Since he is not under contract, Colin Delaney is still allowed to work for other wrestling companies.

WWE should seriously sign this guy to a deal. He might never become a superstar, but he does provide entertainment right now. Colin Delaney is actually getting more of a reaction than some of the wrestlers that are under contract.
