- Although things can change at any time in the WWF, the rumored Undertaker vs. Kevin Nash match at WrestleMania 18 isn't in the current plans according to the WrestlingObserver.
- For those interested in this sort of thing, after last night's No Way Out PPV, the odds of Hulk Hogan being the WWF Champion on December 31, 2002 jumped from 25-1 to 16-1 according to the William Hill agency.
- The WWF has informed Rey Misterio Jr. that they will get back to him around Wrestlemania with an offer after the split occurs and depending on if they go ahead by promoting the cruiserweight division. They also reportedly told Misterio to start accepting indy bookings in the meantime.
- It looks like there may be a new face at the announcer's table in the near future according to 1wrestling. The WWF is in the process of adding Orlando, FL sports talk show host and former Orlando Rage (XFL) radio announcer, Marc Loyd, to the staff as he has already been offered the job and has stated that he will take the job. All that remains to be done are the minor details. Marc landed the spot after interviewing wrestlers backstage. His role has yet to be determined as of this report.
- As of his examination last week, Chris Benoit's doctor, Dr. Lloyd Youngblood, has told him that it will be a mininimum of three months before he is able to return to the WWF. He is officially out of any Wrestlemania match as a result and the WWF has now publically begun stating this.
- Even though she was featured on the WWF history video over the past few weeks, there is said to be no interest being given to bringing back Madusa to the WWF as part of the women's division.
- Scott Hall and Kevin Nash have begun lobbying to the WWF to get their friend X-Pac into the nWo. However, as of last week, they were unsuccessful in their attempts. Many believe that some members of WWF management have heat with X-Pac for comments he recently made criticizing the light heavyweight division.
- Apart from pitching the idea of the WWF hiring Disco Inferno as a television writer, Kevin Nash has also apparently suggested to WWF officials that they consider hiring Mark Madden as a color commentator once the roster split occurs.
- Chris Harvard from the First Tough Enough is considered by many on the indy scene to have a better attitude than his counterpart Josh Matthews, who has already earned a reputation of acting aloof while in the company of other wrestlers.
- It is believed that Eric Bischoff will likely not be offered any sort of contract with the upstart XWF. Apparently Bischoff's former secretary Janie Engle has had a lot of criticism for her former boss, while Jimmy Hart has some heat with Bischoff for not giving him much of a role in the creative aspect of WCW.
- Speaking of Jimmy Hart, he is telling friends that he turned down a contract offer from the WWF because he has many friends in XWF. However, people believe that although Hulk Hogan pitched Hart to the WWF, the company never really officially offered him anything.

This is a joke right? There can't possibly be bets on something that is already known what the outcome is or will be. Can there? It's like betting on the winner of Survivor
