I watched the whole of Excess Saturday night. Now, I don't know if this'll make me a pervert. Shoot, I already know I'm one so forget about that *hehe...sorry female readers*, but I watched that whole show only for Terri's headlights. And, who'd have thought that I'd see a halfway decent show at that!? Meth-X sent me one of the quotes of the year that took place on that show... *Big Show has been doing some impersonations of wwf stars past and present* Terri: Can you do Goldust? Big Show: No, I can't do him. Terri: I don't do him anymore either. Funny stuff! There was no newsletter yesterday simply because there was no news. So enjoy this, the last newsletter of the year 2001 and I'll see you next year! BE SAFE! LOVE THE NEWSLETTER? PLEASE TELL A FRIEND TO JOIN!

They've also cancelled their late January Southwest tour. No reason has been given for the cancellation. However, reports from their house shows have been less than complementary. Source// WrestlingObserver.com ===================================================================== News from the WWF -- WWF.com//======================================= -Official Raw Preview for Tonight's 3 hour show! Tonight, a very special episode of RAW comes your way -- it's the "Best of the WWF 2001: Viewer's Choice," featuring your favorite matches and moments from the past 365 days of World Wrestling Federation action! For weeks now, you have been voting here on WWF.com to tell us what matches were your favorites from 2001. Well, your voice has been heard, and tonight at 9/8 CT on TNN, you will be able to watch your top 10 matches from 2001! Mixed in will be some of the most memorable moments from Federation programming in the past 52 weeks! 2001 was a year like no other, so don't miss "Best of the WWF 2001: Viewer's Choice" tonight, at 9/8 CT, only on TNN! -Canadian Wrestling fans rejoice! TSN will be showing the entire 3 hours of the WWF's "Best of 2001" Raw on Monday night. TSN will also repeat the show immediately afterward at 12 Midnight. Get those tape recorders ready! Also, before you go out, party and get drunk. Reset your VCR's for three hours instead of the usual two or Raw tonight. It'd be a shame for you to recover from your hangover and get cut out of your last hour of Raw ;) -The Royal Rumble will NOT be shown in any capacity this year in the UK. Channel 4, who usually shows around 5 PPV's per year on a free basis, has not renewed its contract with the WWF, and Sky Sports is not interested in picking up this PPV. -1wrestling reports that although Kevin Nash has not signed a WWF contract (his AOL-Time Warner deal expires tonight), many radio shows who have been trying to get him on their shows over the past few days have been told that all appearances will have to be cleared first by the WWFE. Needless to say that the first big story of the new year is that Kevin Nash has signed and we may very well see him on the live SmackDown! Thursday night. -E! Online reports that nearly $6 million is being spent on "The Scorpion King" in order to change it's storyline. THe writer of the piece goes as far as saying that they're re-shooting these scenes to "save it".
