WWE recently issued the following statement regarding fans who were mistakenly charged for their free trial of the WWE Network when the service first launched.

“WWE discovered a technical issue affecting some fans that signed up for a free trial of WWE Network while on a mobile device, which inadvertently resulted in a charge on their credit card. Those fans who were affected will get a free week of access added to the end of their WWE Network subscription.”

WWE posted the following videos on their official YouTube channel for Women’s History Month with NXT Divas Paige, Eden, Devin Taylor, Raquel Diaz and Sara Amato.

Samoa Joe was pulled from Saturday’s TNA live event in Sioux City due to injuries. He was basically given the night off. The latest word is that Joe is scheduled to work tonight’s live event in Spencer, Iowa.

The main event on Saturday night, due to Joe’s absence, was changed to Magnus vs. Bully Ray vs. Bobby Roode in a three-way match.

Hulk Hogan, Undertaker and Brock Lesnar are all scheduled for Monday’s WrestleMania XXX “go-home” edition of WWE RAW, which takes place at the Verizon Center in Washington, D.C.

The show will be a combined RAW and SmackDown taping, with both shows for this week taking place in the same venue on the same night. RAW will of course air live, while SmackDown will be taped to air on Friday as usual.

– E! will not be airing a new episode of WWE’s Total Divas next Sunday, April 6th. Instead of airing the show in its’ usual time slot, which would mean going head-to-head with WrestleMania XXX, the network decided to air the movie “No Strings Attached.”

– Speaking of Total Divas, The Bella Twins wrote the following on Twitter regarding tonight’s episode:

Nothing like wedding planning with the one you love. You can check it out only on #TotalDivas Tonight… http://t.co/dbwVTgVqx3

– According to one source, there is an apparent feeling that Shane McMahon will be in attendance backstage at WrestleMania XXX next Sunday night at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana.

– Speaking of WrestleMania, there are reports going around that claim all of the “go-home” shows for WrestleMania XXX, including RAW and SmackDown, have already been written. WWE apparently has a clear idea how they want to wrap up the main stories on their final shows. Those could, however, change a million times between now and when those shows air.

– This week’s edition of “WWE Countdown” on the WWE Network will look at the top ten moments in the history of RAW. The “WrestleMania Rewind” show will tell the story behind Triple H vs. Chris Jericho at WrestleMania X-8.

– The following is the latest edition of WWE’s “30 Second Fury,” which takes a look at Mickie James’ “Implant DDT.”

Some new promotional material for The Rock’s upcoming “Hercules” film revealed the following official synopsis, which contains more details about the film than had originally been announced.

“Everyone knows the legend of Hercules and his twelve labors. Our story begins after the labors, and after the legend…Haunted by a sin from his past, Hercules has become a mercenary. Along with five faithful companions, he travels ancient Greece selling his services for gold and using his legendary reputation to intimidate enemies. But when the benevolent ruler of Thrace and his daughter seek Hercules’ help to defeat a savage and terrifying warlord, Hercules finds that in order for good to triumph and justice to prevail… he must again become the hero he once was… he must embrace his own myth… he must be Hercules.”

The film, which is scheduled to be released in July, is based on graphic novel, “Hercules: The Thracian Wars” and will be directed by Brett Ratner.

Additionally, WWE Diva Tamina Snuka has a small role in the film.

WWE recently issued a survey to fans regarding new potential WWE video games that could be released online in the future. Details on those games are as follows:

1. Trouble always seems to find a way to the WWE Universe! Play as either John Cena or Daniel Bryan and go off on an adventure to rescue the Bella Twins, who have been kidnapped by the evil Mr. McMahon. Venture through 50 stages to rescue the Twins, grabbing extra powers and goodies over land, water, air, and fire along the way!

2.A turn-based combat role-playing game where you can assemble and lead teams of Superstars and Divas-your mission is to protect the WWE Universe from the clutches of evil wrestlers from another dimension!

3. You’re the boss! Manage the ultimate team of WWE Superstars. Pick your wrestlers, train them, and have them fight your friends and other opponents in the ring!

4. The WWE Universe is way too big for just one Superstar! Collect a series of WWE Superstar action figures, each with unique abilities that unlock certain challenges and portals, and bring them to life on the big screen via your game console. Only you can put the right Superstar against the right challenge to save the WWE Universe. Put the action figures “in the ring” and let the adventures begin!

5. Join an epic adventure with the Angry Birds in the WWE Universe! Use your favorite wrestling moves and slingshot your way through an action-packed journey from WrestleMania to Royal Rumble, facing the biggest WWE Superstars of all time! Can you become the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion with the help of the Angry Birds?

New Japan has booked Prince Devitt vs. Ryusuke Taguchi in a “Loser Leaves Town” match for their “Invasion Attack” iPPV, which takes place in Tokyo, Japan on April 6th. Many are considering this a sign that Devitt is wrapping up business with NJPW and taking the offer on the table from WWE.

Additionally, there’s a general feeling that AJ Styles is being brought into New Japan to sort of replace Devitt as a top foreign talent in the promotion.

The following are highlights of a recent Miami Herald interview with Lita:

On Stephanie McMahon getting in touch with her: “Stephanie McMahon was texting with me. She was feeling me out telling me the office has been trying to get in touch with me. She asked if I could call the office. She was doing the whole talking to me as a friend, but being a little vague. She said, ‘The office just has something they would like to talk to you about. I believe that it’s regarding WrestleMania. So maybe it’s the weekend surrounding it? I’m not really sure, so just give them a call.’ I was like, ‘All right weirdo. Sure.’ Then I called, and they asked me if I would accept the honor of being in their Hall of Fame.”

On the current state of WWE’s Divas division: “Let’s say a generation is seven years. It has been about seven years since Trish and I left. We left within a few months of each other. The diva’s division took quite a hit. I don’t feel like it has fully recovered. I would love to see it get that spark again, that involving a deep roster that you could have a bunch of compelling characters — ones you want to go out there and see. At the same time, the women just like the tag division, was super hot. I don’t know that it has seen that type of attention since, either. It was a special time that I am glad to have been a part of when it was up.”

On Total Divas: “Sure, you get wrestling fans, but they’re already watching the programming anyways. Then you get the people who watch the Kardashians. I feel like that is the type of person that would watch ‘Total Divas’ as opposed to a wrestling fan who is already watching anyways….I have several friends now at this point that have zero concept of my life when I was doing that. Their questions and perception are just completely different than a fan or somebody in the know. I think it’s a different market that people are watching ‘Total Divas,’ but I don’t know if it translates to more viewership or interest in women’s wrestling. It’s more about being curious about these people who do this thing that they maybe weren’t interested in before.”

On the possibility of doing one more match: “The only thing when I get asked about giving one more match is more just to prove it to myself. I do feel really great and really strong. I had some nagging injuries for a really long time after I retired that I guess I will have to live with for getting beaten up for so long. I do feel really great and feel really strong, so that would be more the reason why I would want to get back out there one more time to prove to myself I can still do all the stuff. As far as getting an itch or anything active, I’m super happy where I am and proud of my accomplishments. It’s not really something I feel like I need to do, but if my arm was twisted at the right time, I could probably be talked into it.”

– Jim Ross is scheduled to appear on former WWE announcer Jonathan Coachman’s “Coach & Company” on ESPN Radio today.

– The Rock recently told Cinema Blend that nearly 50 people were fired from the new “Hercules” film because they tried to take pictures of The Rock in costume to leak to the media. Rock noted that he and the producers were very serious about keeping the look of Rock as Hercules under wraps. “I would say maybe close to 50 people were fired — crew members — all trying to sneak pictures,” said Rock. “There’s mandate and we all agreed on that.”

After AJ Lee cut her version of a “Pipebomb” promo last year on Raw, it seemed like the WWE would finally spend more time developing in-depth plotlines for its Divas division.

After all, the elements were there for an intriguing Divas division: a fresh batch of competitors, a champion who was miffed at not gaining exposure, and a highly successful reality television show documenting every move along the way.

AJ Lee has been champion for nearly a year. Is it time for another Diva to take the title?

Instead, it seems as if the division has been on autopilot in recent months. AJ Lee has held the championship longer than any Diva in the history of the company, but her run has seemed stale recently. This is taking nothing away from Lee as a champion though. I think she is great and is certainly a worth champion.

It is instead creative’s fault for not doing anything worthwhile with her as champion. They have instead chosen to simply plug in a new challenger each month without building any sort of rivalry, with the challenger usually gaining a title shot by winning a random number-one contender’s match instead of actually engaging in a feud with Lee.

The Friday, March 28th edition of WWE SmackDown finished number one for the night in the new Nielsen Twitter TV ratings. The show had a unique audience of 999,000, which is the number of different Twitter accounts that commented about the show. This marked a 100-percent increase as compared to the previous week.

SmackDown drew 2.258 million total impressions, which represents the amount of times the show was tweeted about overall. This marked a 50-percent increase as compared to last week.

– WWE is holding a “Dress Like A WWE Superstar” contest where they are encouraging fans to come to the Hard Rock Cafe in New York City — the site of the official WrestleMania XXX press conference — this Tuesday. The 30 grand-prize winners will receive admission to the press conference.

– WWE Network cameras are scheduled to follow several WWE Superstars during WrestleMania XXX weekend in New Orleans, Louisiana. One of the guys who will be followed, Daniel Bryan, noted in a recent interview that the camera crew will be filming what he does to get be prepared for WrestleMania.

Generally this type of footage is shot for the “WrestleMania Diary” features, which used to air on WWE.com, however this year they will be airing on the WWE Network.

– John Cena missed the WWE live event in Charlottesville, Virginia on Saturday evening because he was scheduled for the Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards.

Cena referenced his scheduled awards show appearance earlier in the day on Saturday by writing the following on Twitter:

Fun day planned with @nicoleandbri quite an unorthodox 'date' as we head to the slime filled @NickelodeonTV #KCA lets have some FUN!!!

The following are highlights from a new Jim Ross blog:

On a “RINGSIDE” show in Toronto: “We’re doing another RINGSIDE show in Toronto on Friday May 9 at the Danforth Music Hall and tickets for the show go on sale THIS TUESDAY in Toronto at the box office of the Music Hall and via ticketmaster.ca. It’s one show only and it’s the night before the ROH-New Japan show in TO. VIP Meet and Greet tickets will go fast and are limited. We will h ave the meet and Greet before the show on the Friday May 9 event.”

On some upcoming “Ross Report” podcast guests: “Thanks for the great feedback on this week’s Ross Report with Lita aka Amy Dumas. Next week my podcast guest will be DDP Diamond Dallas Page who I suspect will induct Jake Roberts at the 2014 WWE Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony the night before WM30. That’s not a conformation but my personal assumption. Without question DDP impacted the lives of both Jake and Scott Hall in a major, life saving way.”

“Great lineup of guests coming to the Ross Report podcast via @PodcastOne including, the aforementioned Robert Flores, Jim Cornette, Gail Kim, Shawn Michaels, Bill Goldberg, ESPN’s Michelle Beadle and Eric Bischoff, among others.”

On WWE inviting him to the Hall Of Fame: “WWE has invited me to attend the WWE Hall of Fame next Saturday night in New Orleans. I’m going to endeavor to attend. Grat night for some very deserving performers.”

On reaction to him putting over Michael Cole recently: “Some seemed surprised that I applauded @MichaelCole work in WWE recently on the Q&A’s here. Cole is without question the hardest working on air talent in WWE and his job has become so multi faceted that it exceeds the boundaries of being a play by play man. I’m not even sure that WWE calls it play by play any longer but nonetheless Michael does a helluva job steering a diverse ship on 5 hours of prime time TV for WWE.”

The following are highlights of a new Boston Herald interview with Roman Reigns:

On meshing well with Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins: “We didn’t know we would complement each other so well. Everything from what we wear, entering through the crowd, even the triple powerbomb in itself, it’s clicked and been so organic. That’s been the most exciting part. We spend so much time together, we’ve jumped the friend stage in the past year and a half and become brothers.”

On facing legends at WrestleMania XXX: “The faces will always change, the styles will evolve. I respect what people before me have done, but my time is now.”

On wanting to headline WrestleMania: “Every single day. Somebody just asked me if I would like to take on the Undertaker and beat his (WrestleMania) streak. I would rather retain the WWE world heavyweight championship while taking out the streak. My motivation is to be the best. I have a deep responsibility to leave things better than the way I found them. I don’t want to live off potential, so the first thing I have to do is capture the gold.”

Check out the complete interview at BostonHerald.com.

And there’s a lot of talent in there, it’s stuff that I didn’t see before I actually came back. It’s good, it’s a good vibe.”

You can listen to the audio of the interview at this link.

– DC 101 also spoke to soon-to-be WWE Hall Of Famer Amy “Lita” Dumas about her upcoming induction. “It’s not about titles, it’s just more about impact and things that you’ve done to shape how we’re viewed going forward are things that women that are aspiring to wrestle or make an impact in the business,” said Lita. “Kind of just things to look at or keep in mind.”
