Regal suffered a torn right biceps during his match with Kurt Angle. They were outside of the ring brawling and with a simple manuever, Regal's bicep "just popped." It wasn't unlike Triple H's injury months ago. Regal will be getting an MRI done on Tuesday. The Undertaker had to get 13 stitches done to close a wound on his head after a chair shot by Booker T. Said taker, "I'm a little woozy and I have a slight concussion, but I'll be at RAW tomorrow."

OUt of over 100,000 votes, the fans choose RVD by 44% -The WWF announced last night on Heat that WWFE CEO Linda McMahon would donate one million dollars to the World Trade Center fund. No word on whether footage will be shown on Raw of that or the superstar's visit to Ground Zero over the weekend. -Since Raw is coming to us tonight from Ottawa Canada, the Ottawa Sun has a little Raw preview of their own. You can read it by clicking http://www.canoe.ca/SlamWrestling/oct15_raw-sun.html Source// WWF.com, 1wrestling ===================================================================== News from WCW-ECW//================================================== -DDP will be the guest host for Raw tonight at WWF New York. Should be interesting. -Bob Ryder reports that Raven was cut hardway last night during his match with Rob Van Dam in their hardcore match in Toledo. Raven got cut when he was hit in the head with the seam of the garbage can. It required 3 staples to close. Trust is the #1 priority in the WWF locker room and the way Van Dam has injured (unintentially) Steve Austin, Kurt Angle, Chris Jericho (twice), Test, and now Raven in recent weeks has developed into anger backstage towards him. RVD may be popular by the fans, but if there's no one willing to work with him due to his stiff style, it's going to harder for his star to rise. Unfortunately, his stiff style has reportedly attached a stigma to him of being "careless and selfish."

And how amateur wrestling helped boost his self-esteem and to help overcome many obstacles. - When asked about kissing Stepahnie McMahon he said, "It's a dream come true. She's gorgeous...even more gorgeous in person." - When asked about his brief stint in ECW, he said "Shane Douglas called him up and offered to 'pay him a lot of money' to come to an ECW show. 'it was a very bad experience'. He said he left during the Raven/Sandman crucifixion segment. He said he told Paul Heyman that 'If this makes it on TV, you'll hear from my lawyers because nobody told him that was going to happen.' Angle says that he and Paul rib each other constantly about it. - He thinks Austin's "What?" routine is "some of the funniest stuff he's heard." He said that s"ince Stone Cold is such an entertaining guy, it's hard for the fans to hate him." He said that when you're playing certain characters you have to "do the right thing." Kurt said that "Good guys and bad guys need to compliment each other." - Angle believes that the WWF and Alliance will have their own shows in the future and that the two will merge like a "second WrestleMania" down the line. - He takes pride in the USA and wearing the red, white and blue. He said doign so was "hoakey in the 90's." but the September 11th tragedy brought it back to teh forefront. However, he said that "it's a shame it that it had to happen in the form of a tragedy." He's proud to be a simble of US spirit. - To finish off, Angle said that he's serious about making a run for another Olympic gold in 2004 and has already been granted full permission from the WWF to pursue that goal. ===================================================================== Remember...========================================================== -Remember that if you've missed any TV Shows, PPV's or more?
