Some dirtsheet news from the Observer recently:

The WWE twitter account lists 2,599,025 followers, but the number of real followers is about 286,000. For a lot of the talent, the percentages are similar. It sounds impressive when The Miz or Zack Ryder talk about one million followers, even though the reality is nothing even close to that ballpark.

If Hogan is physically able, and perhaps even if he’s not, the Bound for Glory main event idea right now does appear to be Hogan vs. Bully Ray.

The company is apparently doing an about-face on their long-time thoughts on NXT. NXT right now airs on Xbox, which is a very limited audience, as well as in Canada and overseas. They pulled it from TV in Florida, which made no sense given they are running live events in the area and without TV, often drawing less than 100 fans. Multiple sources say that there is interest in putting NXT on the air in the U.S. in the fall. One source said that they are in talks about it starting on Syfy, although the station at this point is speculative. I’m surprised Syfy would want a second wrestling show, particularly when the old NXT show was doing below the station average and ended up being canceled a few years back. There is also the idea to bring matches from NXT to the touring brands and bill them as NXT matches, to give the developmental wrestlers experience at working before larger WWE crowds.

Mysterio is targeting the summer for a return.
