BOOGEYMAN UPDATE-
Boogeyman recently got some new front teeth put in. They were knocked out in a accident while he was training to be a wrestler in OVW three years ago. He didn't fix his teeth due to the Boogeyman gimmick. Boogeyman has been out of action since September. He took some time off after suffering a calf injury, but has yet to be brought back to television.

TENTATIVE-
The tentative format for the One Night Stand pay-per-view in San Diego on June 1st is to make every match an "Extreme Rules" match. Last year's show drew 188,000 total buys, with only 124,000 from North America, the company's low mark of the year.

MISTAKEN IDENTITY?
There appears to be a second Ashley Massaro (the second, a bikini model out of Las Vegas), which might very well mean WWE's Ashley Massaro may be a victim of mistaken identity, in regards to the Rolling Stone article regarding an escort service.

HECKLED-
At Tuesday's SmackDown/ECW taping in Atlantic City, a fan was heckling Mike Adamle big-time. He was asking Adamle how many mistakes he was going to make on the show. However, a WWE tech guy put an end to the heckling by confronting the fan and saying, "There will be none of that tonight and if I hear one more word out of you, I will throw you out of here." Security also confiscated an "Adamle Sucks" sign.

PRODUCER-
Marissa McMahon, Shane's wife, is the producer of "Anamorph." This is the main reason it has been pushed on WWE television, even though Mick Foley does have a small role in the movie. It's mostly being marketed as a PPV release.

TIME OFF?
Randy Orton has asked management for some time off from house shows. The story is that he's burned out. However, he still wants to work television and pay-per-views. Orton is penciled in for some top pay-per-view matches over the next few months. Orton's wife Samantha is expecting their first child in July, so you can see why he'd ask to be home more. Anyway, it is not known if his request has been granted, or for how long, although he was pulled from WWE's upcoming tour of Mexico.

TOOK PART-
Former World Heavyweight champion Rey Mysterio took part in Mexico City's annual Children's Day parade, appearing in a wrestling ring which was placed on top of a float. The event was attended by over 100,000 people and a lot
of fans were sporting Mysterio masks and t-shirts. The parade features Mexico's top TV stars, singers and other athletes. Mysterio is currently out injured after suffering a biceps injury during an overseas tour.

NO?
WWE is not taping two Smackdown shows in San Jose on 6/8 as was at one point scheduled. They are going to tape a Smackdown on 6/7 in Fresno, and the 6/8 San Jose will tape Smackdown for 6/20. I think the idea was they couldn't do both in one night because of ECW.

MODIFIED!
The Pro Wrestling Insider is reporting that WWE has modified - without any prior announcement - its way to perform drug testing for the Wellness Program and
those who were the first ones to take it were in for a surprise. Urine samples are now being collected with reps from Aegis - the company behind the Wellness testing - being present rather than urinating in private and then giving the sample. Those tested - both sexes - were told to drop their pants and pull their shirts up to see if there's anything hidden that might jeopardize the test. The situation proved to be somewhat uncomfortable and many where unhappy with the new rules according to PWInsider. Apparently these rules were enforced after there was some doubt over someone, who has since been released, who tried to cheat his way out of the test.
