For those who have asked, there's no real update on the health of Tim Donst yet. We will update as soon as we know and wish him the best.

Black Bart is healing on schedule from his recent bypass surgery. We wish him the best as he continues to heal.

Our pal Darren O'Toole sent the following....I was listening to the last Marc Maron podcast and he mentions CM Punk being in an episode of Maron for Season 3 like PWInsider.com reported. He also said that Colt Cabana will be involved..He said "I hope I don't get hurt" which possibly means there is an actual wrestling angle in it. His assistant is a big wrestling fan and the guy who plays him on the TV show wears a "support indie wrestling" t shirt from time to time."

There's a lot of really high profile independent wrestling cards set for this weekend.

Tonight in NYC in Jamaica, Queens opposite the WWE MSG show, House of Glory will be presenting "For All Mankind" with WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley as the outside the ring enforcer as Tommy Dreamer challenges HOG champion Brian XL plus HOG Tag Team champions Amazing Red and Crimson will appear.

Pro Wrestling Guerrilla has it's usually ridiculously loaded card tonight in Reseda, CA. It's so good that I am literally waiting for Highspots.com to announce the pre-order so I can get my hands on it. If you aren't familiar with a lot of the names breaking right now on the indy circuit, this show is your one stop shopping chance to really find out who's tearing the scene up.
