— In light of the demise of ECW, WWE has officially relocated Goldust to the SmackDown brand.

The WWE website is promoting a bout between World Heavyweight Champion Chris Jericho and Goldust on this week’s episode of WWE Superstars with “The Bizarre One” noted as the newest addition to the SmackDown roster.

Other matches advertised for tomorrow night’s broadcast include Kofi Kingston vs. Chavo Guerrero and Mike Knox vs. Kane. A bout between Evan Bourne and William Regal is also scheduled to take place.

The only remaining wrestlers who were part of the final ECW roster who have not yet been released or officially relocated to a new brand are Vladimir Kozlov, Vance Archer, Tyler Reks, Caylen Croft and Trent Barreta.

— Raw Superstar Montel Vontavious Porter joined United States senators, representatives and celebrities at a Washington D.C. Congressional Panel and reception to support the National Guard Youth ChalleNGe Program. Click here to view photos from his appearance.

– It’s believed WWE is trying to get NXT star David Otunga’s fiancee Jennifer Hudson to sing the National Anthem at WrestleMania this year.

– It was announced on this week’s WWE NXT show that the rookies will progress through the season by having the WWE Pros vote on and evaluate the Rookies. The Pros can’t vote for their own Rookies.

– Even with that new information regarding the format of NXT, WWE still has yet to officially announce what the winner receives. One idea that has been discussed would have the winner recieve a WWE RAW contract and the runner up receive a SmackDown contract, but as you can imagine, nobody on SmackDown likes the idea of WWE openly acknowledging that RAW is the superior brand.  This has led to talk of there being two winners – with one going to RAW and the other going to SmackDown.

Connecticut’s Stanford Advocate is reporting that Vince and Linda McMahon  purchased a $4.1 million penthouse duplex in Donald Trump’s Trump Parc luxury tower, located in Stamford Connecticut.

The sale was actually finalized back in October. The penthouse unit has 3,900 square feet of living space.

Political blogger Aaron Blake of TheHill.com wrote this week that Linda’s political opponents “will surely be after her for the timing” of purchasing yet another luxury piece of real estate.

Vince and Linda already own eight multi-million dollar real estate holdings and do not plan on living in their latest acquisition.

Linda’s campaign spokesman Ed Patru is defending the purchase by stating, “I’ll remind you that unlike (two of her opponents), Linda didn’t inherit her resources. She was born in a middle class family, started with bankruptcy and earned the money herself through hard work.”

The Best is Yet to Come

WWE recently announced a new advertising partnership with Slim Jim,, with the meat snack company being the official sponsor of WrestleMania and SummerSlam. Also part of the campaign will be a series of commercials that will feature the new WWE Superstar Slim Jim spokesman, Edge .. The first one aired this week on RAW, check it out:

WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross has updated his blog at JRsBarBQ.com. Here’s what JR said about visiting at WWE RAW last night from Oklahoma City:

Being at RAW Last Night: “It was great seeing so many of my friends from the WWE world Monday at the Ford Center. It is always good to catch up with long time acquaintances and how they and their families are doing. If I was asked once, I was asked a 100 times, ‘When are you coming back?’ I don’t have the exact answer to that question but my standard and honest response remains the same and that is that my goal is and always has been to return to WWE at Wrestlemania 26. If all the necessary arrangements can be made from a business perspective then that goal will hopefully become a reality.”

Meeting With Bret Hart At RAW: “Bret Hart and I had a long conversation Monday of which I enjoyed immensely. Bret is one of the all time greats, a WWE HOF’er, and has battled thru amazing adversity in overcoming a serious stroke to get to where he is today. Bret, as we discussed, will never be ‘100%’ but his heart and spirit are strong and he will no doubt do all he physically and mentally can to provide the fans their monies worth at WM26 versus Mr. McMahon. I personally can’t wait to see this attraction. Bret and I even talked casually about doing some appearances together, perhaps even some Q&A’s”

Before RAW:

– The dark match before last night’s RAW saw Vladimir Kozlov defeat a local wrestler.

– William Regal vs. Evan Bourne and Kofi Kingston vs. Chavo Guerrero was taped before last night’s RAW to air on this Thursday’s WWE Superstars.

– Chavo Guerrero noted on Twitter last night that he was busted open above his eye and had to get 6 stitches after his match with Kofi Kingston at the tapings.

Jim Ross Appears:

– Jim Ross made an appearance before the live crowd at last night’s RAW in Oklahoma City. There were fan reports saying Ross told the fans he would be ringside at WrestleMania but Ross cleared it up on Twitter later, saying he hopes to be ringside at WrestleMania and it’s nothing confirmed. Reports say that JR looked better than he has in a while and has lost some weight.

After RAW went off the air:

– When RAW went off the air Shaemus came back and threw HHH into the ring. Batista’s music hits and he said you don’t just beat down a guy like HHH, you take them out, let me show you. He runs to the ring and just before they start beating on HHH, Cena’s music hits and he runs to the ring. The Shaemus and Batista clear the ring and Cena gets on the mic and says something to the effect of “let’s have a tag team match right now” They all get up and a tag match begins. Went back and forth for a little bit in a real good match and eventually Cena hits the ring and tears up Shaemus does the five knuckle shuffle on Shaemus and then looks at Batista begging him to come in the ring. Dave then decides to walk out of the arena, looks like we wont get to see them go at it until mania. Cena turns back around and gives the AA to shaemus then looks to HHH who wants in. HHH is tagged in and gives Shaemus the suck it before pedigreeing him and getting the pinfall victory. HHH and Cena then spend about 10 minutes walking around the ring high fiving all the fans. Good times were had by all.
