The new WWF show on the Spanish Univision station, entitled "WWF Latino", will be headed by Bruce Pritchard(Brother Love) and Victor Quinones. Early reports say that the WWF will run the tapings for that show in smaller arenas around lucha libre strongholds. The shows would feature mainly light heavyweight wrestlers. If the WWF taped the Spanish show at its regular RAW and Shotgun tapings, it wouldn't come across well on television because many of the light heavyweight stars are not exactely over with the American crowd. The tapings will begin in July, with the first shows to air in August.

This update on Shawn Michaels comes straight from Jim Ross. Shawn Michaels did not have surgery yet. That possibility is not ruled out as of yet. The WWF found Michaels one of the best doctors in the U.S. to take care of him. He has gotten new orthopedic furniture and has been working in his swimming pool. The discs were originally herniated and they then ruptured. Michaels IS making slow progress though. There is no definite date in which the WWF expects Michaels to return by. He is now starting to get full nights of sleep. He had not had full nights of sleep since January. The WWF is hoping that this is the start of Michaels' recovery.

Mabel has called the WWF asking for employment, but for some reason the WWF denyed it because of him constantly injuring people. And he has not lost a pound since his departure. Mabel is wrestling for AWC, and The NWA but just against the same people over and over.
