The end of Raw fake? Noooooooooooo.
The Randy Orton-Triple H segment on RAW last night was filmed in Florida yesterday, so that wasn’t really Orton’s home. The cops involved in the segment were developmental wrestlers Matt Walsh and Michael Hutter, who got deals after the first FCW talent evaluation camp. They did multiple takes of the scene, and last night was the final product of editing pieces of them together.

The woman who played Randy Orton’s wife Samantha last night is Laura Croft, a former Playboy model who appeared in the July 2008 issue. She’s from the Jacksonville area.

Matthew also sent in the following: I was looking at the pictures from RAW on WWE.com. If you look at picture #20 from the Orton/HHH brawl. Triple H has on his jacket to be arrested. But, as we all saw - he was arrested without his jacket. Plus, pictures #18 and #19 clearly show him without his jacket on.

Possible fake news flowing around …
As noted earlier, Vince McMahon recently issued a company-wide directive to prevent storyline plans from getting out on the Internet. They are going as far to plant red herrings in order to keep their creative plans a mystery to the Internet wrestling fans, not to mention discover the individuals within the company leaking confidential information to the people behind the wrestling news websites. In an update on the situation, Stephanie McMahon has been feeding false information to members of the creative team she suspects may be leaking stories, reports The Sun. Also, the writers are using company laptops with special software that tracks their e-mails and which websites they view.

Roid popping CCW star to TNA?
TNA Wrestling announced today that Philadelphia-based disc jockey Danny Bonaduce will have his first pro wrestling match on Sunday, April 19, at Lockdown, inside the lethal six-sides of steel.

Bonaduce, the former wise-cracking son on the 1970s television series The Partridge Family, is the morning drive DJ on WYSP (94.1 FM) in Philadelphia.

TNA Wrestling executives would not comment on who Bonaduce’s opponent will be, but confirmed that the TNA Wrestling Superstar will be in Philadelphia next Friday, March 20, for the official Contract Signing, to be held on-air during Bonaduce’s radio show.

- The stuff with Danny Bonaduce began last week, when Bonaduce had Kurt Angle on his radio show. Bonaduce and Angle were discussing the Lockdown PPV, and then Bonaduce challenged anyone from the Hulk Hogan Celebrity Wrestling show to face him at the Lockdown PPV. Bonaduce really wanted to face Dennis Rodman and claimed he would put up $10,000 of his own money to do so.

- Kurt Angle then suggested if no one took up Bonaduce’s challenge that he would find him a TNA star to wrestle on the show.

- Kurt Angle also announced that there would be a Team Angle vs. Team Jarrett match at Lockdown, which will likely be the yearly Lethal Lockdown match.

Hogan says he’d put over Austin at WrestleMania

- From the Bubba the Love Sponge radio show:

Bubba asked if JR thought Hogan and Vince could make up and do something for WM 25.  This began a long discussion about a Steve Austin vs. Hogan match at WM 25.  JR said he didn’t think it would happen, but would like to see it.  JR suggested a finish in which at the end of the match Miz & Morrison would run in, cause the double DQ, get beat down by Hogan and Austin, and then Hogan and Austin would drink a beer.

Shortly after that Hogan called in.  Hogan and JR exchanged pleasantries and then Hogan went on to tell JR that he didn’t like his proposed finish to the match.  He said that a match of that magnitude and historical significance needed a definite finish for the fans.  Hogan went on to say he would have no problem putting over Steve if the match took place.

Bubba wondered how much trouble JR would get into for talking to Hogan because of his relationship with CCW.

Bubba said he is going to try to get Steve Austin on the show and had his producer put in a request with WWE to get Vince on the show in an effort to put this match together.
