A Thursday batch of assorted WWE news and notes
-- WWE confirmed on the 'Industry News' portion of its website yesterday that Mr. Kennedy will appear on The Reelz Channel's Dailies Show tonight at 6PM ET. Kennedy will be hyping his upcoming direct-to-DVD movie "Behind Enemy Lines - Columbia."
-- A man who subdued a would-be shoplifter at a Wal-Mart in Tallahassee attributed the move he used to WWE Hall of Fame wrestler Ric Flair.
After being caught stealing DVDs from the store, Kelvin Bispham pulled a knife on employees. Will Hudson, the Good Samaritan, got involved by restraining the "bigger" Bispham in a bear hug with a "grip hold." The article, first published by Tallahassee.com, says that Hudson had first seen the move done by Ric Flair.
"He's bigger than me, but I was holding him," Hudson said in the article. "It's hard to get out of the position when you grab them from behind."
The deputy ultimately arrested Bispham.
