The WWE Magazine Yearbook 2008 issue that was released this weeks hints at a possible Randy Orton vs. Undertaker feud taking place on Raw in the near future. On Randy Orton’s page, it readers:

“With all of the top Raw talent gunning for him, 2008 will be the toughest year of Orton’s career. There are even rumors that a certain Deadman would like to come to Raw and inflict some immortal punishment on the self-proclaimed Legend Killer.”

Would you wanna see a Randy Orton versus The Undertaker feud?

According to Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Umaga may be turning babyface in the near future

This explains why WWE gave him a spot last week on Raw to get a pop by attacking “Barack Obama” and “Hillary Clinton.” Let us know what you think of this possibility:

Should Umaga turn face?

The Wrestling Observer is reporting that WWE has called Mick Foley and asked him to start on Smackdown as an announcer. We’ll post details as they come.

What would you think of Mick Foley as an announcer? Weigh in now on our FORUM.

As all WWE fans know by now, Jeff Hardy is serving a 60-day suspension for his second Wellness Policy violation. In a possible hint toward his return, though, a RAW house show in the Pan American Center in Las Cruces, New Mexico is advertising the following matches June 20:

• John Cena vs. Randy Orton for the WWE Championship
• DX vs. Umaga & Snitsky
• Chris Jericho vs. Mr. Kennedy for the Intercontinental Championship
• Jeff Hardy vs. Lance Cade

Take this rumor with a grain of salt the size of The Big Show, however. Remember: cards are always subject to change.

According to Wrestling Observer Newsletter, sources inside WWE circles say there has been talk of turning CM Punk heel.

However, because his merchandise is selling far better than someone in his position should be selling, many believe that he should be built up higher as a babyface. There has also been talk of Punk switching brands.

We say it’s far too early for this sort of switch. What do you think? Would CM Punk make a good heel?

Sad news for those that were looking forward to the next WWE Diva lingerie match involving Torrie Wilson:

Back surgeons have told the knockout never to set foot in a wrestling ring again. Here’s what Wilson wrote on her MySpace blog this week:

“I have been told by 2 back surgeons that I should never set foot in a wrestling ring again if I want to be moving around in a few years on my own. Pretty depressing if you ask me.”

We may have seen the last of Torrie Wilson inside a WWE ring.

She continued:

“My health is doing ok as far as back problems. I must say there are days that I wake up and ask myself why the heck I put my body through what I did the last few years but it’s all worth it. I can never trade all of the awesome experiences that I have had in the WWE and of course all of the great life long friends that I have made along the way.”

According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, head SmackDown! writer Michael Hayes wants to move Triple H over to the SmackDown! brand. Hayes wants Triple H to work as a heel in a main event program against The Undertaker.

As you might expect, not many within WWE that expect Triple H to make the jump. There is still a stigma that SmackDown! is the “B” brand and Triple H has been against moving to Smackdown! in the past. He wants to dominate on RAW, though he is not opposed to turning heel and definitely wants a run with the title.

The Wrestling Post Take: We’ve been saying this for months: Turn John Cena heel instead! A lot of the crowd already boos him. When Cena returns full-time after filming his latest movie, have him cut a promo, dissing fans for a lack of support. We can see it now: “If you wanna boo me, I’ll give you reasons to boo me!”

A Cena/Triple H feud, with Cena as the heel, would be a major ratings grabber throughout the summer. What do you think of it?

We’ve been told that WWE has sent Big Daddy V home to lose some weight. We didn’t think we’d seen him on TV in awhile… and the guy is hard to miss!

The company is worried about the rotund wrestler’s health. He was not in Orlando for WrestleMania weekend, despite being originally booked to play a major part in the WrestleMania battle royal. Reportedly, Big Daddy was going to begin a program with Kane following the PPV.

Many fans have been wondering how the Floyd Mayweather/Big Show match will go down tonight. Will it be boxing? Wrestling? A combination of both?

Now that the company has announced an “anything goes” stipulation to the bout, many WWE officials are not optimistic about how it will turn out.

Despite the fact that he’s been training hard for the match, Mayweather has been reportedly slow to pick up many of the basics of pro wrestling.

Triple H has been assigned the task of trying to save the match from being a disaster. He’s been working closely with Mayweather and Big Show over the past few days. Expect the match to be heavily scripted.

Here are a couple tidbits about Chris Jericho and is changing of recent feuds:

The working plan was for Jericho to engage in a long program with Jeff Hardy. However, due to Hardy’s suspension, that’s obviously off the table now. It’s unclear who Y2J will go up against next.

Also, the Jericho vs. JBL feud was originally programmed to go longer, but the feud wasn’t clicking. Stylistically, JBL works better with Finlay and Jericho works better with Hardy.
