• Former WWE Champion The Rock makes a special appearance in the newly released Reno 911 Miami movie. He plays an officer named Rick Smith who is a sole member of a SWAT team. In the movie he leads to Reno team to police Miami, but blows himself up promptly with a grenade.

• Multichannel News has an article up speaking about WWE broadcasting in High Definition. In the article, USA Network executive Bonnie Hammer says:

“Much of our content is still shot in film, but we’re experimenting with [HD] more and more. We’re even trying to shoot [World Wrestling Entertainment] in HD. That’s kind of challenging. Does a punch hit or does it just go by? You see everything in HD. You’ve got to be very careful.” This is one of WWE’s major concerns; as they don’t want people to be able to see a missed mark or blow clearly.
