WWE Around the Web


Here's some of the latest WWE stories from around the world wide web featuring Big Show/Floyd Mayweather, WWE business news, WWE Hall of Fame and more.

Bringing boxer Floyd Mayweather into WWE may be working well for Wrestlemania publicity. The story has now been picked up by NY Daily News on its website. The site has a brief article discussing the return of Big Show at No Way Out and then speculating that Floyd Mayweather will be involved in a match with Show at Wrestlemania 24. Most WWE fans realize this angle by now. According to rumors around the internet it was originally going to be a match involving Oscar De La Hoya and Rey Mysterio taking on MVP and Floyd Mayweather. Due to Mysterio needing surgery and De La Hoya saying no to WWE, it now looks like just Show vs. Mayweather. Expect Rey Mysterio to still be at WM24, just not wrestling.
