Smackdown magazine preview, Fans scammed, Rock on VH-1, Rey off this weekend and more
April 8 2004 at 5:32 PM
- Thanks to reader John Permaul for the following notes:
The current edition of Smackdown magazine contains a complete recap of WrestleMania XX and the Hall of Fame ceremony. The cover of the
magazine features a picture of Chris Benoit and Eddie Guerrero celebrating with each brand's championship belt.
The magazine also features the official Judgment Day poster. Unlike previously stated this poster features the Undertaker. A Ministry-looking Undertaker face is in the middle. His face is blue with the white eyes. On both sides of him is fire. Infront of the Undertaker's face is the burning Undertaker cross, with the slogan "Souls will cry".
Surprisingly, the story right before this poster is "On Set With Brock Lesnar", which takes a look at his Cell-tech & Nitro-tech commerical.
Lastly, a picture of the Torrie Wilson Divas 2004 Magazine cover is shown in this magazine. However, the contest to choose the Divas 2004 cover ended a few days ago. This shows that the fans were scammed since the final cover had to have been chosen long before the wwe.com contest ended.
- Rey Mysterio is off this weekend's SmackDown-brand house shows. He asked for the weekend off to spend with his family during Easter time, nothing more - nothing less. The top billing will be Guerrero vs. Layfield main-events to get the two ready for the PPV.
- "Driven", the special featuring The Rock will re-air on VH-1 tomorrow night. It was said to be a good documentary on him.
- "The Rise & Fall of ECW" DVD will be released by WWE on November 16th.
- WWE accidentally plugged Shopzone.com on the bottom of the television screen during Velocity on Saturday night. The problem is, the correct address is WWEShopzone.com.
