WWE headquarters has been very busy as the company continues to reach out to former stars. Just this past week, both Bret "The Hitman'' Hart and "The American Dream'' Dusty Rhodes were seen heading for meetings with the McMahons. According to WWE, the company and Hart have taken the first step toward burying the hatchet left from the infamous 1997 Survivor Series swerve with Shawn Michaels in Montreal and soon will release a DVD detailing Hart's career.
We hear Hart would not give his OK for the DVD project unless he received full veto power on any of the material. Don't be too surprised to see him headline the Hall of Fame ceremony next year.
As for Rhodes, he was in Stamford for a meeting with Stephanie McMahon to discuss a wide range of opportunities, possibly even a spot on the booking team.
AROUND THE RING: Brock Lesnar has turned down the WWE's most recent offer and will stay out of wrestling. This could be a ploy by WWE to make his return a bigger surprise.
