(Stamford, CT) - Fans that have been anxiously awaiting 21 years for a follow-up to the The Best of the WWF Vol. 20 release need wait no longer! Assuming they're still alive, that is.

World Wrestling Entertainment Home Video, in conjunction with Coliseum Home Video, are set to release The Best of the WWE Vol. 21 next month, according to a confidential source trapped inside WWE's vast video vaults (we're guessing it's Sean Mooney).

"It's about time!" stupid mark Bubba DeCrawford of Bloomington, Indiana told World Wrestling Insanity Breaking News. "I can't wait to add to this to my video shelf, sandwiched in between WWF Bloopers, Bleeps and Bodyslams and Pro Wrestling Illustrated's Lord Of The Rings.

The three-DVD set will be hosted by Mean Gene Okerlund and Lucious Johnny Valiant. It will feature, among other matches, Christian versus William Regal; Zack Ryder versus Primo; R-Truth versus Dolph Ziggler; a two-out-three falls match between ShowMiz and The Killer Bees; a 22-person over the top battle royale (won hilariously by Beth Phoenix) and in a Coliseum Home Video exclusive, an arm-wrestling contest featuring John Cena and Mark Henry.

"That sounds amazing!" said DeCrawford. "Wait.... what the hell is a DVD?"

TNA Fans Demand Impact Move To 3 a.m. Wednesdays

"We Give The Fans What They Want..."

(Orlando, FL) - Leg drop? Or slap chop?

Viewers will have to choose between the squared circle and an infomercial, after Spike TV made the decision to move Total Nonstop Action's flagship Impact program to a different time slot.

TNA President Dixie Carter said the move allows TNA to "get away" with more of the unpredictable, anything-goes action that fans have come to expect - instead of conforming to stringent standards the network forces on them in prime time.

"In our Thursday timeslot, we can only show a maximum of four blade jobs an hour," Carter told World Wrestling Insanity Breaking News during our weekly makeout session. "And they force us to keep The Beautiful People clothed at all times!"

TNA hanger-on Hulk Hogan predicts that Wednesday Morning Impact will draw "triple" the ratings of timeslot competition, such as Slap Chop Infomercial # 2b, the Jumbo Juicer infomercial (now with free travel container!) and reruns of Unhappily Ever After and Cagney & Lacey.

Also the 25 year-old video of the national anthem that concludes the broadcasting day.

Who Needs Sold-Out Stadiums When You Can Wrestle For Peanuts In Front Of, Like, 20 People?

An editorial by former WWE superstar Gangrel

Hey, everyone - it's Gangrel here! Or, at least, it would be Gangrel if World Wrestling Entertainment had allowed me to keep my name.

But I have no reason to complain. Competing now as Former Gangrel, I get to compete all around the world in matches that I personally select, and at venues that fit into my schedule.

Sure, it's not a sold-out Madison Square Garden, but don't thumb your nose at the Lester B. Psillipun War Veterans' Armory in nearby Flushing, New York. True, they don't pack fifteen to twenty thousand people every show, but the 20 or so fans that show up to see get their money's worth.

What I also love is the up-close and personal contact I get to have with those 20 fans (16 excluding the promoter's family). Many of them seek me out after the matches and ask me questions they couldn't have back when I was working in WWE. For example: "When are you going back to WWE?" is a question I often get asked.

And while I won't deny that the payoff for some of my appearances on Monday Night Raw was often good enough to take care of a month's rent, my paycheck isn't too.... well, at least I get certain perks now. For instance, I get half-price on all concession stand hot dogs if I wait until after the show is over.

There's nothing minor league about the shows we're putting on, either. What's WWE headlining with these days - John Cena and Batista? Big deal! Just the other day, I teamed up with Tatanka (oops, make that Former Tatanka) against Lance Storm and Manu. Top that, WWE!

So, as you can clearly see, I really don't need to be back in front of sold-out crowds, with slick productions, earning more than $45 a night.

Unless, of course, they'll have me back.
