– The Undertaker reached out to WWE in the past week and told them that he wants to compete at WrestleMania 29. The Dead Man is currently training for his return and  reportedly pitched an opponent to WWE — it’s not Triple H or Ryback.

As we’ve been reporting, the current plan for the Undertaker at WrestleMania is for him to wrestle CM Punk in a “Respect vs. Streak” match.

– CM Punk will be appearing on WWE television in the coming weeks while he recovers from this week’s knee surgery. Punk is already able to walk around on his own power, but it’s expected that he’ll sell the injury by getting pushed around in a wheel chair, etc.

– WWE released the following video on Wednesday of superstars and divas wishing the WWE Universe a happy holiday season:

– Newsday.com has an interview up with WWE legend Mick Foley, who talks at length about his new children’s book, “A Most Mizerable Christmas.” The book features several WWE superstars, as children. Here’s what Foley said were their reactions to being depicted as children in the book:

“I went out of my way to talk to The Miz [Mike Mizanin] about eight months ago. And I said, “Hey, how would you think about being part of a book I’m working on?” . . . And I said: “I warn you. You’re going to be a jerk in it.” And he said, “Even better.” . . . the first draft , “How can you have a WWE children’s book and not include John Cena?” And I was like, “Oops.” He’s the No. 1 character who appeals to children. And I just created a role for a giant elf.”

– During a recent interview on the PWTorch Livecast radio show, former WWE creative team member John Carle revealed that WWE has considered ending the Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak at various times throughout the years. He said:

“Yeah, we (the writing team) kind of talked about it. It was one of those things that was pitched, but it never really came to fruition.”

As noted earlier, WWE Hall of Famer Bret Hart recently spoke to Canada’s CTVNews to hype the new WWE ’13 video game. You can read Hart’s quotes comparing today’s current generation to the main eventers of the 1980’s at our earlier report here.

Hart also spoke about the Attitude Era bringing about the evolution of Steve Austin and the Undertaker’s characters – and what it was like during the mid 1990’s when WWE transitioned from pushing one-dimensional bodybuilders like Hulk Hogan and the Ultimate Warrior to technical masters like him and Shawn Michaels.

Wrestling Evolving From Bodybuilders To Technicians:“I don’t want to rag too much on Hulk Hogan but he’s pretty one-dimensional,” said Hart. “Very big guy. The great, magnificent body that he had — the 22-inch arms and all that kind of stuff. But after a while, after (The Ultimate) Warrior came, it was like, ‘Enough of the body-building, let’s go on with who can actually do a drop-kick and who can actually climb up on top and do stuff.’

“I think the wrestling really did change from these sort of dinosaurs to the guys who were really picking it up and doing the moves.”

Undertaker’s Evolution: “Whereas in the beginning, he was kind of like Frankenstein, kind of moving around slow and ponderous in the ring, and was very methodical. But times changed and by the mid-90s, Undertaker had revamped his whole character.”

Steve Austin’s Evolution: “I like to think I was carrying the flag for the whole company, where it wasn’t about the wrestlers being cartoon characters,” said Hart. “It was about the wrestlers being committed stars that were trying to get to the top.”

With CM Punk retaining the WWE Championship against Ryback and John Cena at Survivor Series on Sunday, thereby likely solidifying an expected match with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson at Royal Rumble, the sports-entertainment organization’s creative team has discussed a scenario where The Straight Edge Superstar would defeat The Great One at the annual January pay-per-view event. This would subsequently lead to Punk defending the title against The Undertaker at WrestleMania XXIX, and Johnson facing Cena in a non-title re-match at the same event.

Original creative plans called for Johnson to defeat Punk at the Rumble, leading to a match against Cena for the title—which could still occur. Creative has given thought to how Johnson winning the WWE Championship would impact the product since there would be no titles defenses at houses shows for over two months, and also add a new issue of whether he would defend the title at the February pay-per-view event, Elimination Chamber. Not awarding Johnson would rectify this problem.

Though the importance of the WWE Championship and the World Heavyweight Championship has diminished in recent years, one of the primary reasons that creative has yet to unify the belts is because they feel a title match should close out all house shows.

– Following reports in recent months indicating that The Undertaker’s in-ring career is uncertain, F4WOnline.com confirms that WWE brass spoke with the legendary wrestler this week and he’s “on board for a high-profile match.”

– The Miz, AJ Lee and Alicia Fox paid a visit to Riley’s Hospital for Children in Indianapolis, Indianapolis, last Friday to spread some holiday cheer. WWE has released the following video of their visit.

The content listing for WWE’s “The Attitude Era” three-disc DVD and two-disc Blu-Ray scheduled for release on Nov. 20 has been released.

The synopsis for the title reads: “In the late-90s, WWE was struggling for ratings survival while a cultural shift in the viewing audience’s taste was occurring. “Saying your prayers and taking your vitamins” had lost its luster amongst the rebellious masses who preferred “flipping the bird” and “laying the smackdown”… Enter Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, Triple H and Mankind and the notorious crop of edge and fearless Superstars who ushered in The Attitude Era. Now in this 3DVD set fans can own all the infamous moments from this controversial and revolutionary era that redefined sports entertainment for an entire generation. Over 8-hours of envelope-pushing content includes all the agression, antics and innuendos that proved to be the perfect cocktail for an explosion of popularity.”

– The official WWE website has published an article ranking the 15 greatest ring entrances in sports-entertainment history.

“What’s more impressive, pulling up in an expensive sports car or walking through hellfire?” WWE states. “A calm walk through darkness or a mad dash to the ring?”

The list ranks 15. Ultimate Warrior, 14. Goldust, 13. Alberto Del Rio, 12. Glacier, 11. The Sandman, 10. The Rock, 9. Rey Mysterio, 8. Gangrel, 7. Goldberg, 6. Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat, 5. Hulk Hogan, 4. Kane, 3. Chris Jericho, 2. Triple H, 1. The Undertaker.

– Matches taped Monday in Birmingham, England for this week’s episode of WWE Superstars were Jimmy Uso vs. Jinder Mahal and Justin Gabriel vs. Tensai.

In a pre-taping dark match result, Tyson Kidd defeated Michael McGillicutty.

– WWE developmental Briley Pierce turned 28-years-old Sunday. He is the younger brother of WWE Superstar Dolph Ziggler.

– With Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson stating on record that he will be present at WrestleMania 29 at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, the official WWE website has published an article on their five theories for his participation at the event. One theory includes Johnson challenging The Undertaker’s undefeated streak.

“If a showdown for the WWE Title is out of the cards for The Brahma Bull, there’s no reason he can’t throw the gauntlet down at the feet of The Deadman and attempt to surmount what has become the greatest challenge in WrestleMania history,” the article states. “The Rock and The Phenom have history together (they were even Tag Team Champions for a hot minute), but a collision on The Greatest Stage of Them All would — to use an old expression — certainly put a lot of butts in the seats. Besides, after interring Triple H inside Hell in a Cell at WrestleMania 28, The Demon of Death Valley will be looking for a top-caliber challenger (if he’s looking for a challenger at all), and a high-profile opponent like The People’s Champion certainly fits the mold.”

Other theories including Johnson challenging for or defending the WWE Championship, challenging for the Tag Team Championship, a rematch against John Cena, and a “Rock Concert” with Bruce Springsteen.

– The Cauliflower Alley Club, a non-profit fraternal organization comprising both retired and active professional wrestlers and boxers in North America, has announced former WWE Women’s Champion Molly Holly as their 2013 Women’s Wrestling Honoree. She will receive the award at their next reunion event taking place April 15-17, 2013 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Past female grappling honorees include Darling Dagmar, Rockin’ Robin and Awesome Kong.

Now 35-years-old, Molly Holly has mostly kept away from the wrestling scene since parting ways with WWE in 2005. Sans a one-night return at WrestleMania XXV, her wrestling-related appearances have been limited to occasional guest referee roles and autograph signings.

– WWE held its first live event on Thursday night from Cairo, Egypt, with World Heavyweight champion Sheamus and Zack Ryder defeating Big Show and Alberto Del Rio in the main event.

Also on the card, NXT Champion Seth Rollins successfully defended his title against Jinder Mahal. Later in the show, Rollins did a run-in where he saved R-Truth saved Kofi Kingston from a beatdown by The Miz and Cody Rhodes.

WWE.com has published a photo gallery from the Cairo show.

– WWE developmental Diva Anya did some commentary work at Thursday night’s NXT live event in Tampa.

– The Undertaker has still not given WWE notice as to whether he’ll be wrestling at WrestleMania 29. Even if he decides against a match at WrestleMania, WWE is still hopeful they can get him to wrestle at the Royal Rumble.

– Pre-orders for the WWE ’13 video game are even stronger than last year’s game, which set records. That said, WWE ’12 wound up having disappointing overall sales, so pre-orders aren’t always the best indicators of how the game will sell.

* RAW on October 5th in Everett, WA drew 5,000 fans and had a gate of $200,000
* RAW on October 6th in Yakima, WA drew 3,800 fans and had a gate of $100,000

* RAW on October 7th in Spokane, WA drew 3,500 fans and had a gate of $125,000
* SmackDown on October 7th in Reno, NV drew 2,200 fans and had a gate of $65,000

– In recent months, we’ve seen WWE Champion CM Punk ranting and raving about “Respect” – and not getting enough of it. WWE is currently considering CM Punk challenging The Undertaker at WrestleMania 29 in an effort to end the streak and earn everybody’s respect once and for all.

– With RAW’s ratings well below the 3.0 mark for the past several weeks, there has been talk of reaching out to The Rock for an appearance.

– Vince McMahon was understandably furious over CM Punk striking a fan in the face twice on national television at the conclusion of Monday’s WWE RAW. A lot of people were expecting major ramifications for Punk’s actions, but there’s been no action taken yet.

Despite the strong build for a match between WWE Champion CM Punk and Ryback, it is only being teased at this point and no concrete plans will be made until November or December. The match may not even occur since there has discussion of Ryback facing Undertaker at WrestleMania XXIX, with The Deadman’s undefeated streak at the pay-per-view extravaganza going up against Ryback’s overall undefeated streak. However, some people within WWE have speculated that Undertaker may not even work next year’s show.

With the curtain call finish to his WrestleMania XXVIII match against Triple H, and his wife, Michelle McCool, recently giving birth to a child, it is possible that the bout was his final wrestling match. WWE’s original plans called for the legendary wrestler to compete at WrestleMania XXIX and start building toward a match at around Survivor Series. Many feel he’ll ultimately wrestle on next year’s show, but it’s not considered certain. Whether he competes on the show or not, it will be entirely up to him and not Vince McMahon.

– With The Rock announcing on Monday’s RAW that he’ll be wrestling for the WWE Championship at next year’s Royal Rumble, the current working plan is for The Rock to win the WWE Championship at the Rumble (likely from a heel CM Punk) and then go on to defend agaisnt John Cena at WrestleMania 29. Despite Rock & Cena’s WrestleMania 28 match being hyped as “Once In a Lifetime,” Cena winning the Royal Rumble could set up a scenario where a rematch would take place.

– CM Punk’s surprise heel turn at Monday’s RAW 1,000 was the big “summer storyline” that WWE has been planning for quite some time. Previous summer angles have included Vince McMahon’s limo blowing up, the formation of Nexus and CM Punk’s “pipe bomb” promo from last year.

Cena hits Show with the Attitude Adjustment, which placed him into position for a People’s Elbow. The Rock, however, didn’t have an elbow pad, so Cena gave him his “Cenation” armband. The Rock spoke on the microphone and said Cena must use headbands as arm bands since no one’s arms are that huge. The Great One then hit The People’s Elbow on Show as Cena left up the ramp. The Rock thanked everyone and posed with a few fans. Show remained in the ring as the house lights come on.

WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross is back with another blog update, which you can read in its entirety at JRsBarBQ.com. Here are some highlights of what JR wrote about:

Would He Want To Be General Manager: “No, thanks. Anoint someone who needs the TV time in hopes of building for the future. The role needs to be tweaked in my view and now is a good time to do so.”

A Pet Peeve:: “Wrestlers who can’t act but attempt to do so on wrestling shows. When in doubt simply be yourself. For the record, I’ve been told that my acting skills suck and that would be an accurate statement. Another personal annoyance on TV wrestling is ‘faux’ laughter. It’s an eye rolling, channel changer.”

Is Undertaker Retired? “Has Undertaker retired? O.K., let’s think about this one. IF Taker had retired, wouldn’t one think that WWE would memorialize that occasion in a HUGE way? Come on folks, WWE is an entertainment company and when one of the biggest stars in history decides to call it a day, I think I can safely say, that we will all know. So the answer is ‘No’ the Undertaker has not retired and ‘No’ I don’t know when he’s returning and ‘No’ I don’t think that he will EVER lose at a WrestleMania. (Haven’t heard so many NO’s since my senior prom.)”

As always, you can check out JR’s amazing line of BBQ products at WWEShop.com.

– As we’ve reported, Rey Mysterio has been cleared to return from his 60-day suspension for the past two weeks, but has not yet returned to WWE television.
