- CM Punk's debut at SOTF was said to be nothing less then perfect by ROG management. Punk was very over In front of the Bay City crowd. And management wants to put the belt on him come October.

- Earlier this summer Randy Orton had a sit down interview with management about his recent behavior backstage. Management let him off with a warning. But after last Saturday's altercation backstage management has suspended him for 2 months! They want to keep him around to finish off the Dudley Boyz/Generation Next feud at Glorified, but after that Orton has been said to be gone from Ring Of Glory.

- The Ken Kennedy/Rob Van Dam match at SOTF was said to have went well by ROG management. RVD played off the concussion very well and in the end It got both men over. RVD more over as a face, and Kennedy as a heel. Now with the Generation Next/Extreme Revolution feud coming to an end. Van Dam and the rest of the Revolution should be gone by this fall.

- The Jr. Heavyweight title arrived in ROG offices earlier this week. Management has said that sometime in September they will have some sort of 8 or 16 man tournament to crown the first Jr. champion. They are currently discussing the participants at this time. An announcement should be coming sometime later on this week.

- At SOTF we all found out that Samoa Joe is the man that Christopher Daniels has been targeting. They are set to feud until Glorified II where then they will have a final showdown.

- With Flip 2 My Lou less than 2 weeks away plans are that Kenny Doane will be crowned the first Jr. Heavyweight champion. But ideas are still being thrown up in the air. James Gibson has a good 'cult' following on the Internet and he is set to go at least to the semi finals. Also Matt Hardy is set to go to the finals; Seeing as how the final stipulation is Hardy's trademark ladder match. And the Trailer Park Boyz/La Familia is set to feud throughout both of the nights with the Trailer Park Boyz screwing one of or both of La Familia out of the tournament; Thus hyping their anticipated tag match at Glorified II.

- Sometime this October before Glorified II, there will be a small hype show to the huge super show called fittingly enough "The Road To Glory". It will be a small hype show to Glorified and we will take a look back at Ring Of Glory as it approaches Its one year anniversary!

- CM Punk and Ken Kennedy are rumored to have some sort of altercation at Flip 2 My Lou, whether it be Punk taking on one of Kennedy's Generation Next members or Kennedy and Punk having a contract signing for Glorified II to add more hype.

- On Wednesday the 19th, Randy Orton will reach the half point on his suspension. Orton has been pulled from all ROG events until October 19th. Orton will not be apart of Flip 2 My Lou, but he should be apart of The Road To Glory along with Glorified II.

- It became final earlier this week, and Joey Mercury and Johnny Nitro (The Hollywood Hustlers) are done from Ring Of Glory. ROG was expecting them to get the team back Into the tag title picture but that changed now that the main tag feud is La Famila and The Trailer Park Boyz. They tried to split the team up in singles action but ROG management said that they didn't 'see anything there'. The Hustlers were apart of a four team tournament to crown the first Ring Of Glory tag champions and made it all the way to the finals until losing to the Prime time Players; That match was voted ROG MOTY in 2006. The last time we had the chance to see both the Hustlers was last July when Mercury lost to former ROG Heavyweight champion Charlie Haas.
