Several wrestling news sites report that former Total Nonstop Action Wrestling stars Ron Killings and Chris Harris have been in talks with WWE. In addition The Big Show is said to be returning as well. Be on the look out for unsourced claims of these signing being added to their respective articles as well as the WWE Roster article.
The focus on improving Stub-class articles is continuing to pay off, as the number of stubs has reduced from 717 to 706 over the past two weeks. The goal for this week is to get it down to 700, so please check out the stub article subpage to see what you can help with.

Ron Killings and The Big Show are still being reported as to having signed WWE contracts. As there is no reliable source for anything of the sort, be prepared for their names to be continually added to the WWE Roster article and information about their returns being added to their own articles. There is also apparently an audio interview with Killings where he states he will be returning to WWE with his old K-Kwik gimmick.
Bobby Lashley is being reported to have been released by WWE. His profile has been removed from WWE.com. But again, there is no reliable source for his release, so be prepared to revert his removal from the roster article and edits to his own article.
*The number of stub articles increased this week, but a large jump in the number of total articles means that the percentage of stub articles still dropped from 21.63% to 21.51%. Please check out the stub article subpage to see what you can help with (even if you can only add a reference or two).

Take a look at WP:VANDALISM. Since the IP seemed to be trying to improve the article, his/her edit could not be considered vandalism. TJSpyke 01:33, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
You are doing well. I think that you've achieved a lot since joining Wikipedia. Remember to always be civil when it comes to other editors. One incident in particular between you and User:Mshake3, as per here and here. If you avoid those types of situations, then you'll become a great editor, but if you continue with those types of incidents, then it will result in you being block. But overall, you are doing a great job on reverting vandalism and hoping you continue with vandal-fighting. ZenlaxTCS 18:16, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you so much for the Barnstar. ZenlaxTCS 18:08, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

At WrestleMania XXIV, Shawn Michaels defeated Ric Flair after executing the Sweet Chin Music, which as a result, meant that Ric Flair was forced to retire from professional wrestling. The next night, at Flair's retirement ceremony on Raw, Triple H congratulated Flair for his 35 year career, and brought out retired and current superstars to thank him. Michaels, and the whole WWE roster came out later to thank him as well.
The Undertaker defeated Edge to become the new World Heavyweight Champion forcing him to submit to the Gogoplata. During the pyro celebration for Undertaker's 16-0 streak, a freak accident occurred just before WrestleMania went off-air. During the pryo shooting to the entrance stage, a firework went to the upper-level section of the crowd on top. Forty-five fans were injured, and currently, WWE is trying to investigate what was the cause of the pyrotechnic malfunction

My RFA that you weighed in on earlier has closed as no consensus to promote, at a final tally of 120/47/13. I thank you for your feedback and comments there, and I'm going to be considering all the various advice and comments presented. I might end up at RFA again some day, or not. If you see me there again in the future, perhaps you might consider a Support !vote. If not, not, and no hard feelings. The pen is still mightier than the mop! See you around, and thanks again. Lawrence § t/e 18:28, 12 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your comments on my RFA. Even though it failed with 28 supports, 42 opposes, and 15 neutrals, I am grateful for the suggestions and advice I have received and I do hope to improve as a Wikipedian. If you ever need my help in any endeavor, feel free to drop me a line. --Sharkface217 20:17, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
