— On the MySpace page of Gregory Helms, he posted a graphic of himself reading “RETURNS!! (09-19-08)” At this past week’s SmackDown taping, a screen box of Helms cutting a promo during a wrestler entrance was shown. You can see the graphic at this link. Helms has been out of action since April 2007 due to neck fusion surgery.
— The Nasty Boys were advertised to appear at last night’s Florida Championship Wrestling show, but apparently didn’t for whatever reason. However, they signed autographs and posed for pictures for fans before the show along with Jimmy Hart. Hart was also advertised, and ended up appearing. He managed FCW Tag Team Champions Heath Miller and Joe Hennig in the main event. They defeated Dolph Ziggler and Gavin Spears when Miller pinned Spears.
— At last night’s Florida Championship Wrestling show, ECW star Evan Bourne and WWE Hall of Famer Greg “The Hammer” Valentine were advertised to appear at next Thursday’s show. Valentine lives in the area and Bourne still attends FCW events.
— Ricky Ortiz and Natalya were seen in the parking lot prior to last night’s FCW taping.
— If you recall, it was reported earlier in the week that WWE had changed the names of numerous FCW performers. However, all of the talent used their old names – sans wrestlers who have already appeared on WWE television.
