    WCW 468

    Kurt turning Face, Smackdown, WcW Video News, Y2J to Win WcW Title, EcW Titles

    - As Kurt Angle walked the ring in Cleveland, fans chanted at him - like they normally do -- but the word "sucks" didn't follow "Angle." For the first time in his professional career, the Olympic Hero is emerging as a good guy.

    - The following are early notes from tonight's Smackdown tapings:

    Hurricane Helms?
    Hugh Morrus Titan Tron
    DDP vs Kane
    WCW Championship - Booker T vs Kurt Angle
    Vince will be doing a tribute to the Rock.
    WWF will hype Rock to return at Raw next Monday.
    Torrie Wilson and Stacy Keibler hosting Heat this Sunday.

    - The following 4 WCW titles which many fans in the UK expected to be released a little under 1 year ago have been pushed back for release again to September 30th:

    WCW Bash At The Beach, WCW Fall Brawl 2000, WCW Mayhem 2000, WCW New Blood Rising 2000.
    The last time WCW released a set of videos in the UK was about 1 year ago. These videos are still set to be released by Warner Home Video despite the WWF buying all of the video archive as they were scheduled for release 1 year ago.

    - The WCW United States Championship Title is still alive and well and could be put around "Y2J" Chris Jericho's waist before the Summerslam pay-per-view. This will set up a possible title for title match against Lance Storm at the PPV in some sort of gimmick match, probably a ladder match. The two have been know to work great together. This could be the showstealer of Summerslam this year.

    - The WWF is still working with HHG Corp. for the total rights to the ECW trademark. They are planning on bringing back some ECW Championship Titles so they could be defended by ECW's wrestlers. The ECW side has been left out title wise, so returning the World, TV, and Tag Team titles could help spirits a bit.
