Last night’s ECW showed Chavo Guerrero with a new “enforcer”, who will be watching his back at Backlash. Now a lot of fans are asking, “who is Chavo’s new ally”?

He is none other than Justin “The Ox” Laroche. He has been a regular in the midwestern independant circuit and spent some time at Florida Championship Wrestling and the WWE training ground of OVW. He looks big…let’s see how he can move at Backlash.

You can see Laroche’s official Myspace page here

WWE released a press release:

WWE® To Cease Affiliation With Ohio Valley Wrestling
February 7, 2008
World Wrestling Entertainment® announced today that Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW) will no longer be affiliated with World Wrestling Entertainment as an official developmental territory, making Florida Championship Wrestling™ (FCW™) WWE’s official development training facility for talent around the globe.

“Ohio Valley Wrestling has been a tremendous partner with World Wrestling Entertainment through the years, and we thank them for their work in developing many of today’s WWE Superstars,” said John Laurinaitis, Senior Vice President of Talent Relations. “We look forward to Florida Championship Wrestling playing host to the next generation of WWE Superstars recruited from around the world.”

Last November, WWE announced the formation of Florida Championship Wrestling, a new training center for future WWE Superstars. The facility has four wrestling rings and approximately 35 contracted athletes, with plans to increase that number to more than 70 in the near future. The facility is now fully operational, as WWE undertook large-scale renovations to FCW in order to accommodate its training needs. The finished training facility is more than 10,000 square feet, including an arena that will seat nearly 300 fans. The new training facility will also host a weekly show in front of a live audience, to be broadcast for regional television.

FCW is owned and operated by Steve Keirn, a former professional wrestler and producer for WWE. WWE trainer Tom Prichard oversees all talent training at the facility.

Additional information on World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. (NYSE: WWE) can be found at wwe.com and corporate.wwe.com. For information on our global activities, go to http://www.wwe.com/worldwide/

OVW No More

WWE severs all ties with Ohio Valley wrestling. Here are the details:

In a meeting that was held today with contracted developmental talent. WWE’s John Laurinaitis and Ty Baily made the announcement that all of the contracted wrestlers training at OVW there would be heading to Florida Championship Wrestling - which is now WWE’s only developmental territory.

Laurinaitis told the talents that WWE wanted to keep all their talents in one place. This huge move would make up and coming talents of aspiring superstars a better chance to learn from former stars who reside in close prximity to the Florida Championship Wrestling.

Talents was told that there will be no releases stemming from OVW shutting down and that they will all be relocated to Tampa after finishing a few more weeks in OVW.

Talents was told the trainers in FCW would be Tom Prichard, Steve Keirn, aka WWE star Billy Kidman.

FCW is slated to run its first official TV taping later this month and there have been plans in place to run a regular schedule of live events in Florida.

The move had been suspected for some time as the amount of contracted talents working in Louisville had dwindled greatly in the last year and morale in OVW overall had fallen.

Over the years, OVW has groomed a number of WWE’s biggest stars, including Batista, Brock Lesnar, Randy Orton and John Cena.

As of right now plans for Paul Wight, aka “The Big Show” should be back in a WWE ring by the end of the month.

For him returning at the Royal Rumble is a no go, cause he would not be winning it. It would make Wight look like just one of the guys in the 30 rumble.
