Sin Cara is scheduled to make his first appearances for WWE at this weekend's Raw house shows.
Update: He's also working a likely dark match after Raw on Monday, and is scheduled to face C.M. Punk when WWE tours Mexico in May.
As for PWInsider.com's questions today, here's my take on them: I suspect that Vince McMahon will still be taking part in WrestleMania behind the scenes, like he does most other shows. It's not really surprising since he's not on camera that much.
I don't think we'll see the former Awesome Kong appear at WrestleMania. I don't remember the last time any talent made their WWE debut on such a grand scale (celebrities excluded), and I doubt they'll break the trend with her. There's been pretty much no word on what they'll do with her since she's been signed. She's not in FCW or anything.
No clue on when Lita will go into the WWE Hall of Fame. I don't think they're quite ready to go full-on with Attitude Era inductees yet.
After the break, another theory on why WWE isn't acknowledging Triple H vs. The Undertaker from WM17. And the rest of the day's news!
I think the only/main reason they're ignoring the previous encounter, even on its "10th anniversary" is to make it seem fresher. They don't want to be seen as rehashing old ideas from a decade ago, I guess. That's just my theory though.
I'm not sure when the last question was sent in, but Cody Rhodes has definitely changed his gimmick since he was taken out by Rey Mysterio. At the very least it's a progression from the "Dashing" persona. I think it's pretty much an overhaul.
Entertainment Weekly has an interview with The Rock. I'm curious as to what he does post-Mania.
More mainstream publicity: The Miz' appearance on Conan O'Brien is recapped here. It sounds pretty funny.
Even more: Miss USA (and Tough Enough hopeful) Rima Fakih talks to the New York Post here.
Bob Armstrong also has an interview up. Nice little read.
Mark Henry also has an interview where he talks about the rest of his career and what he'll do after it. He's not "Sexual Chocolate" anymore, though. WWE needs to use him wisely in his remaining 18 months. This is yet another sign that WWE needs to use the veterans as well as possible, because there are less and less of them around for shorter and shorter lengths of time.
And here's ANOTHER interview, this time with one-half of the Road Warriors discussing his late partner and the Hall of Fame. I'm pretty sure that they meant Rick Rude, not Rood. But I could be wrong.
WWE has signed a developmental wrestler from Northern Ireland.
An actor from USA's "Psych" will make an appearance on WWE Tough Enough.
Hulk Hogan made an appearance on American Idol recently. No TNA mention, but that's pretty cool for one of the contestants who's a big wrestling fan.
