Shaq meets Foley, Interviews with Ziggler/Miz, TNA/Wrestle-1 update, more "Total Divas" footage, 3rd-generation performer back in WWE?, TNA wants social media manager, NXT signing profiled, and Questions on Styles' promo, Hart vs. Flair, Pedro, Albano, and Mad Maxine

Somehow I'm just now finding out about this (I didn't think it was real at first): Shaquille O'Neal met Mick Foley. The only problem is that he referred to Foley as "Hacksaw" Jim Duggins (sic). Funny stuff.

Dolph Ziggler had a big interview in Detroit. He knows how to get heat on himself. Pretty entertaining guy in and out of the ring.

Speaking of Ziggler, he'll be at the Windsor Star News Cafe on Saturday. WWE really needs to have more appearances near me.

There will be no TNA talent at Great Muta's Wrestle-1 event in Japan. No word on if either side will share talent in the future after the meeting between Muta and Jeff Jarrett. That could be a boon for both sides.

Everything else from yesterday is after the break.
WWE is taping more "Total Divas" footage in Florida today for the show's YouTube after show. The taping is open to the public. The show's a hit!

Shaul Guerrero, the daughter of Eddie and Vickie, is looking to get back into WWE. She used to work as Raquel Diaz in FCW, where she got high marks from online fans. I'd like to see what she can do with that lineage.

The Miz's appearance in Abu Dhabi was profiled. I'll be curious to see how WWE does there.

TNA wants a social media manager. Imagine dealing with the deluge of angry wrestling fans on a daily basis.

New NXT signing (and former AFL player) Morkeith Brown was profiled. Let's hope he does as well as some of the other names mentioned.

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. I agree that Punk vs. Styles wouldn't be as big as some think. While the die-hards know who Styles is, and a lot of TNA fans do, there's likely a large portion of the WWE audience who has no idea who he is. That said, if WWE signed him and built him up, I don't see why it couldn't be a big, important match.

2. I do remember someone doing a fantasy booking scenario involving them on Wrestlecrap that that could have come from, but other than that, I don't know for sure that it happened.

Nothing to add to 3. They've got it pretty much covered. PROTIP: When asking if someone should goin the Hall of Fame, make sure they're not already in!

4. I bet that's a good read! I wish it got a wider release.

5. I can't find any record of any of her matches on Cagematch, oddly enough.

More wrestling tomorrow.
