World Wrestling Entertainment recently issued a cease and desist letter to Great Lakes Championship Wrestling promoter Dave Herro in regards to an upcoming show featuring former WWE stars for "attempting to pass (his) event off as an official WWE event." Herro says that is not the case and the show will take place as scheduled. Great Lakes Championship Wrestling issued the following press release:

WWE Tries To Shut Down Local Wrestling Promoter

Waukesha, WI - Great Lakes Championship Wrestling (GLCW) presents "TWO WORDS….TOO SWEET", Saturday March 21st at the Waukesha County Expo Center, 1000 Northview Rd, Waukesha, WI

Former WWE stars Scott Hall and Kevin Nash, formerly of the WWE’s NWO take on BG and Kip James, formerly Road Dogg and Billy Gunn of WWE's DX in the main event of a six match show.

Local promoter, Dave Herro was sent a Cease and Desist Order stating that the GLCW is "attempting to pass this event off as an official WWE event." Herro says that is not the case and the show will definitely happen as scheduled.

Former WWE superstar, Kevin Nash says "this is the match they don't want to see happen."

Five other matches are scheduled for the show including a GLCW Title match between GLCW Champion, Al Snow and Armando Estrada.

Tickets are on sale at the Waukesha County Expo Center or online at www.blizzardbrawl.com. A limited number of front row tickets are available for $50, Rows 2-4 are $20 and general admission is $10. Doors open at 6:30 for a 7:30 bell time.

-- In this week's edition of Santino's Casa on WWE.com, Santino Marella's main squeeze "The Glamazon" Beth Phoenix fills in for him. She calls out a few blondes in her segment, Beth's Blonde Beatdown. You can view the segment at the following link.

The reason for Marella's absence this week is because he was apparently not brought to Monday's Raw/ECW taping in Jacksonville. Marella was nowhere to be seen on either program. He also didn't appear at house show events over the weekend.

As reported earlier, one way WWE is looking to cut costs is by not flying in every single active talent on the roster to the weekly tapings unless they actually have plans to use them. In the past, WWE would fly in everyone on the roster whether they had plans to use them or not. Last week, Cryme Tyme weren't brought to the weekly Raw taping for the first time since their return to the company.

-- Big Show is advertised to wrestle John Cena at the 5/9 Raw brand house show in Youngstown, Ohio. Devin Cutting sent in the following:
