WWE News & Notes - 6/28/03 - More Info On Piper's Release, Nash Rumors, Angle/Lesnar, & Trish News
-  As you know, WWE announced that they've ended their agreement with Roddy Piper. Although the wording was a little complicated, the basic reasoning was that WWE was shocked with what Roddy Piper said on the Real Sports special, and decided to end their deal. Additionally, the note on WWE.com also mentioned that Piper being on WWE TV was a "negotations in progress" type of deal, so this means such negotiations are over.

It has been said that Roddy Piper really didn't fit into the lockerroom and kept to himself backstage. His character also wasn't really over to the extent that I'm sure both he and WWE hoped it would be upon his return. In any event, the staff of this website would like to wish Roddy Piper the best of luck in future endeavors.

The following news comes from The Torch Newsletter:

-  Kevin Nash was reportedly very upset when he came to the realization that WWE had nothing planned for him after his two-PPV feud with Triple H. He felt that he shouldn't go from being at the top of the show, to having seemingly nothing to do.

-  Nash has also been pushing to go heel and possibly join Triple H's "Evolution". He has not been granted such a request yet, although there are many that feel he can't really contribute as a face the way he could as a strong heel. We'll have to wait and see on this one.


-  Despite injuries, both Kurt Angle and Brock Lesnar will be working the weekend house shows. Last word was Angle and Lesnar vs. Show & Cena for the shows, but these things change all the time.

-  There have been rumors going around of Trish Stratus agreeing to pose in Playboy. While I personally wouldn't doubt the possibility of that down the road, the fact is that Trish has not yet agreed to do so, and there have been few negotiations as of yet.
