--New US Champ Booker T has had a few interesting months. Since winning the US title for the 2nd time over Lance Storm at the Royal Rumble, he has had numerous run ins with an obsessive Goldust. Goldust just said that he wanted to be partners tho, partners in the ring. Now Booker has himself a new tag partner and he has been teaming with Goldy reluctantly on Raw and SmackDown broadcasts. Both William Regal and Lance Storm are top contendors for Bookers' US belt. The two tandems have been facing off recently and a match for Mania has been signed...(US)Booker T/Goldust vs Lance Storm/William Regal with Bookers' US title on the line....And another stipulation is, whichever team wins, gets a tag title shot the next night on Raw...there is some added incentive to that match up.
---Can you believe that Kurt Angle is a fan favorite? I still can't but its been an incredible run for this superstar. It all started at Royal Rumble where Triple H beat Angle for the WWF Title. Nash turned on Angle and the fans instantly got behind him has he gave Olympic Slam after Olympic Slam to both Nash and Triple H on the following nights Raw. Angle even has fellow fan favorite superstars like Rock, Austin and Sting on his side of the fence. All have been teaming with Angle in mega tag matches around the country. Angle is set to take on Nash at Mania.
--New champs and happenings on the way to my 10th WrestleMania.
--World Title is vacant for the first time ever. Champ Triple H lost the belt at No Way Out in a tag match, to the Ref..."Stone Cold" Steve Austin. It was Kurt Angle/Sting vs (WWF)Triple H/Kevin Nash with the belt on the line. Everyone was knocked out so Austin, the ref, took advantage and stunned Triple H, and made his own pinfall count. Austin became a 3x WWF champ for a day. The next day at Raw, Commish Shane McMahon stripped Austin of the belt and declaired it vacant. Main Event at WrestleMania which was already set up as Austin vs Triple H, is now for the Vacant WOrld Title.
--New Commishioner to be announced....Recently on Raw, we saw an old face return, none other than Vince McMahon. He returned to fire his son Shane of his commissioner duties. Punished Shane to a series of matches. First up, he had to face Austin, and he got destroyed. On the following Smackdown, Kurt Angle was his opponent, once again Shane lost. A new commish will be declared on the Raw following WrestleMania and i can't wait to see how he shakes things up.

--HIRINGS AND FIRINGS...say goodbye to Val Venis and Buff Bagwell, cuz i did...they have been jobbed out for the last few weeks on FallOut and HeAT and have been givin their release papers. Farewell. Some new great athletes have been hired and brought into the WWFtoy league. In the next few weeks a bunch of new cruiserweights should see action. New Indy stars such as "Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels and American Dragon have come to terms with me and will have contracts very soon. Another superb athlete in AJ Styles is set to debut in April as well. I can't wait to see him in the mix of things...A few new superstars have already been gracing the ring...new guys like Low-Ki and Shannon Moore have been on fire recently. Low-Ki has brought so much excitement in the short month he has been involved with WWFtoyz. His incredible debut match with Psychosis was one for the ages...Ki has been involved in matches with Little Guido and Steve Corino most recently. We even had an old face return to challenge the athleticism of Low-Ki,,,,2 Cold Scorpio attacked him recently and they are scheduled to meet at the HeAt of WrestleMania in a few weeks time.
---Shane McMahon since getting fired as commissioner, has returned as manager/wrestler. Has Test as his enforcer and said he is bringing in many other wreslters into his stable...Shown interest in the Big Show and Rhino thus far.
---DDP is no. 1 contendor for Austins title. He has been on such a huge roll here and deserves a title shot. Page defeated Rock at Mania, Sting the next night on Raw. Defeated RVD on Smackdown and then challenged Austin to a title match. Austin agreed and it was set for the main event at Backlash.
