The following are re-written news highlights from this week's Ross
Report:

-- Lance Storm has currently been performing despite a mildly bruised
elbow injury. Storm isn't expected to miss any time in the future as
a result of the minor injury.

-- Scotty Too Hotty will have his neck re-examined next week when the
WWF travels through San Antonio. Scotty has yet to have any new
damage done to the long-time neck injury he has been working through.
Scotty Too Hotty may have to take a little bit of time off after his
examination.

-- Crash Holly is ready to return to a normal WWF schedule after
getting his bell rung a couple of weeks ago.

-- Mike Awesome is expected to be back in action in approximately
four months after being sidelined for quite sometime now with knee
surgery.

-- Bob "Hardcore" Holly who was last seen on the casting special for
Tough Enough 2, is now ready to get back in the ring after a long
absence with arm surgery.

-- Chris Kanyon looks as if he will be released from doctor's care in
about three weeks from ACL surgery.

-- Steve Blackman is dealing with severe headaches as a result of a
neck condition. His situation is still being evaluated.

-- Plans to seperate the WWF roster into exclusive RAW and SmackDown!
divisions are finally beginning to take shape. This will give a lot
of the developmental guys, guys acquired from WCW, and former WWF
stars who were sent to HWA or OVW a chance to return to television
and prove they got back in gear while training in their respective
developmental camps.

-- "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan and a personal writer of his are currently
working on a book project. An autobiography from one of the most
recognized wrestlers in of all-time will be released later this year.

-- Jerry "The King" Lawler is also working on an autobiography
project as well. His will be released after Hogan's is on shelfs
which should be the later part of this year, or the early part of
next year. Lawler will likely do the illustrations and artwork for
his book himself as he is a crafty artist.

-- Tonight (Friday) will be "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan's first WWF match
in about 10 years as he steps in the ring against Rikishi at the Sun
Dome in Tampa, FL. for a WWF house show (non-televised event) tonight.

-- Jim Ross heavily hints at a return from Shawn Michaels upon the
splitting of the WWF roster. Ross noted that he hopes to see HBK
during his stop in San Antonio, Texas for a possible return in a
physical, or non-physical way to the WWF roster when the WWF splits
their rosters in April.

-- Despite the addition of the men with the bad reputation (nWo) the
WWF locker room has not changed a bit and still deals with the
everyday normal issues. No additional serious issues have come about
from the return of Hulk Hogan, Kevin Nash, and Scott Hall to the WWF.
