Trish Stratus vs. Kharma?

Semi-retired former WWE Diva Trish Stratus says the one opponent she wants to have a match with is Kharma, who has been off TV for several months after a memorable WWE TV debut earlier this year. "When she debuted, I think it was one of the first times since I retired where I would have dropped it all to go back and step into the ring with her," Stratus told WWE's website in an interview promoting her inclusion in the new "WWE '12" video game. "That would have been an epic rivalry. I would have loved to have wrestled her. Hopefully, she’ll come back so the WWE Universe can see more of her."

Is The Rock a diva? Dwayne Johnson acts too Hollywood for the WWE wrestling ring, says CM Punk

Yes, Dwayne Johnson has action hero biceps, a megawatt smile, and an adoring public. Yes, he made a roaring return at Survivor Series at Madison Square Garden on Sunday. And yes, he's a Hollywood superstar now, too.

But no, that doesn't mean that The Rock's return to the WWE has gone smoothly. Why not? Because, according to fellow WWE wrestler CM Punk, Johnson has hardly spent any time with the rest of the group. Instead, he's acted like an ultra big shot celebrity, a brand name all his own, and shown little regard for the rest of WWE.

"You know, the thing about that is, he's not around," Punk told the Daily News during an event to promote THQ's "WWE 12" video game. "He's not around. It doesn't help morale when the guy goes right from his limo to the dressing room to the dressing room to the ring. He's very bourgeois Hollywood."

Research Firm Says to Avoid WWE Stock

World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. (WWE) was recently trading at about $9.50 per share, near the low end of its 52-week range of from $14.90 to $8.67. Its market capitalization is about $720 million, and its P/E ratio is 17. It recently lowered its dividend to an annual rate of $0.48, for a yield of 4.7%.

In its third quarter of 2011, WWE's sales and profits from continuing operations were essentially flat when compared with the year ago quarter. But the reported earnings were actually down about 25%, due to a one-time $5 million charge in WWE's film division.

WWE's product is dated when compared to the various mixed martial arts formats available to the public. Overall weakness in the economy has not been helping matters, either.

Jim Cramer recently described WWE as a “wasting asset.” I agree with that, and with Cramer's opinion that there is no reason to own WWE. Avoid it.

Rumor Mill - WWE To Launch The WWE Network By Broadcasting Wrestlemania XXVIII Next Year?

There is a hot rumor beginning to make rounds within inner circles of WWE. Vince McMahon promised a major announcement regarding the forthcoming WWE Network in the company's investor conference call to discuss quarter three earnings for 2011 earlier this month.

The rumor making rounds is that the company will kickoff the WWE Network by broadcasting Wrestlemania XXVIII for free on the network. According to those with knowledge of the rumor, the idea is to launch the network on April 1, 2012.

Various wrestling sites reported back in September, the topic of giving up the tremendous Wrestlemania pay-per-view revenue to use it as a bargaining chip to gain clearance for the WWE Network on cable and satellite systems has been discussed.

The company hasn't decided yet if it plans to air Wrestlemania XXVIII exclusively on the WWE Network or on the network as well as making it available on pay-per-view.
