[Misc News] Ric Flair‘s 21-year-old son Reid (Richard Reid Fliehr) was arrested on a driving while impaired charge in Mecklenburg County, NC on 3/4. He was released after posting a $1,000 bond. No other details are available as the incident went unreported until today. A frustrated family source told us: “I hope Reid decides to grow up.” This is Fliehr’s second arrest in as many years.

[WWE News] The Von Erich’s Hall of Fame induction video is expected to air on Smackdown this week. They played it for the live crowd at the TV tapings on Tuesday in Corpus Christi. They didn’t air the video on Raw amid fears of a media backlash following the passing of Andrew Martin. At least one more inductee is expected to be announced over the next two weeks; long-time WWE announcer Howard Finkel and Tammy Sytch are two names that have been mentioned to us as most likely going in.. [reported by Mike Aldren]
[WWE News] Tammy Sytch was interview on 540 ESPN in Milwaukee about her upcoming Wrestlemania appearance. She said she is hoping to impress enough to land a regular gig following her cameo last year at the 15th Raw Anniversary show. She is 36 now but said she feels and looks 26. She described Vince as a “father figure” and said he is the best boss she ever had. She also talked about writing a book about her experiences on the road and funny ribs she was involved in..

[WWE News] They’ve announced a draft for the live Raw on 4/13 in Atlanta. Obviously nobody has been told anything yet and decisions will probably be made and changed a million times between now and the draft. I do know internally there is some concern over Smackdown with the MyNet announcement over the past few days. I would expect them to bolster the ECW roster but I can’t see any major changes on Raw..
