Cody vs Goldust, Wrestlemania Plans, Hulk Hogan, Christian Pulled From Tour

Time for another WWE news & rumor round up.

Courtesy of various sites: 

-There is at least talk within WWE of doing a Cody Rhodes vs. Goldust feud at some point over the next six months. The talk is that if they go through with the program, Goldust would be the heel and it would be done in early 2014.

- A few people in WWE creative have been thinking of angles for Bill Goldberg and Ryback, in case something gets worked out for WrestleMania XXX. It's not a done deal but it is something being talked about. There is a chance of Goldberg vs. Ryback happening because both sides have not closed the door on a WWE return.

- For what it's worth, people within WWE believe that Hulk Hogan is staying with TNA. At the same time, there are people in WWE would like to have him for WrestleMania XXX but the question is do they want him bad enough to out-bid TNA.

It was noted by a WWE source that if they put either Randy Savage or The Ultimate Warrior in the Hall of Fame next year, Hogan could do their induction speech, plus some kind of angle with a mid-level heel on the actual pay-per-view.

With The Rock and Steve Austin very questionable for WrestleMania XXX, Hogan could be the person to deliver big numbers for WWE. Last year's WrestleMania numbers were disappointing and there's a feeling that The Rock appearing for the fourth straight year isn't going to pop the numbers this time around. Unless there is a major outside attraction, there's also a feeling that the only ting that will get WrestleMania back to its previous numbers is an announced retirement and final match for The Undertaker, something big with Hogan or something big with Austin

- The company has been advertising Christian and Rey Mysterio for next week's WWE tour in Mexico. Christian was also slated to face Alberto Del Rio at several upcoming WWE live events.

WWE has since pulled Christian from advertising for next week's tour, while Mysterio is still scheduled to appear. Also, Del Rio is now slated to defend his World Heavyweight Championship against The Great Khali at this weekend's WWE live events in Pennsylvania and Rhode Island.
