Headlines for Saturday, September 1, 2007


- WWE released Eugene.

- Andre The Giant was voted into the GERWECK.NET Hall of Fame.

- Bret Hart commented on Brian Adams: "I can't get over how many friends of mine are gone. I spoke with Brian last weekend several times, and for nearly two hours on Sunday afternoon (the day before he died). He sounded really good. We had one of those long heart-to-heart chats about how close friends we were. He stayed over a month at my house in Hawaii and was in excellent spirits. He talked about moving back and opening up a wrestling school. He was the best one for bringing Owen back to me, telling me the long-forgotten ribs they took part in til the wee hours of the night. Both of them were great as disguising their voices doing prank phone calls. He was my best and most reliable friend left in the business. What a damn shame. Two young boys and a great wife."
