SMACKDOWN RATING, WWE LOOKING FOR A LOCATION TO CREATE A HALL OF FAME, THE BASH AND MORE

Last week's edition of Smackdown did a 2.7 broadcast rating.

Andrew Hickey sent word that tickets for The Great American Bash, which will take place at Long Island's Nassau County Coliseum, will go on sale on Saturday May 10 at 10 a.m.

Devin Cutting sent word that WWE returns to the Indoor Stadium in Zurich, Switzerland on November 13th, 2008 at 8 PM. Tickets go on sale April 15th, 2008 at 8 AM.

Today's Miami Herald quotes Shane McMahon as saying that WWE is looking for a physical location to build a Wrestling Hall of Fame. "We've been close a number of times,'' McMahon said. "We actually looked at a place in Orlando a few years ago. We don't know where it's going to settle, yet. I think it's probably still a couple of years away, but we're really anxious to do it." He added that they have a lot of memorabilia in a warehouse under lock and key in preparation for the project. Shane also talks about the company's international expansion plans in the article.
