According to PWInsider.com, no one that has been contacted knows anything about Jeff Hardy being taken to a hospital after being found unconscious. It seems at this point it is a storyline to hype tonight's Survivor Series PPV. This is NOT 100% confirmed at this time, but it appears at this time that it is nothing for those who are concerned.

WWE.com just posted the following:
BOSTON – Jeff Hardy was found unconscious in a stairwell at his hotel in Boston today, and was rushed to the nearest emergency room.
Due to privacy issues, WWE is not releasing the name of the hospital.
WWE.com will have more information if it becomes available.
My thoughts: There is no other information on this, so I cannot confirm is this is indeed real or if this is a angle for tonight's Survivor Series PPV. Hopefully more information will be released sometime today. Visit http://www.wrestlingnewsarena.com for more information throughout the day.

-- The Atlanta Journal-Constitution ran a story online this week noting that former WCW & WWE superstar Lex Luger is still wheel chair bound and is in rehab working to overcome his physical issues.
Luger suffered a nerve impingement in his neck which some refer to as a "Spinal Stroke" which led to him being temporarily paralyzed in late 2007.
Our best wishes go out to Luger in his recovery.
-- WWE's annual "Tribute to the Troops" special will air on December 20th at 8:00pm CT on the NBC network. World Wrestling Entertainment will tape the special in early December in Baghdad, Iraq.
-- WWE.com caught up with former Womens Champion Trish Stratus to find out what she has been up to since leaving WWE. Stratus commented on her new show in the works called "Stratusphere" and how the crew didn't realize who she was at first.
Stratus also comments if she should ever make a return to the ring saying “I’ve heard that Beth Phoenix and this new Diva Natalya have talked [trash] about me,” says Stratus with a gleam in her penetrating eyes. “I’ve said it before, but if they ever decided to call me out, I wouldn’t hesitate to step into the ring.”

-- Randy Orton appeared on FCW's latest episode last night. Orton started off by saying that he came to the FCW arena to scope out the future potential WWE talent. He said that as he went and met with the men and women back stage he admitted that they all have potential, and put over that the arena had 5 rings back stage so that the developmental talent could practice. He went on that the arena had AC, Heat.
Orton then talked about his time in OVW when he was a developmental talent, there was only one ring and when talent wanted to practice they would do it in an old barn. The buildings they would practice in would have holes in them and have birds nests everywhere. He said the one difference between the talent in FCW & the talent in OVW is the fact that many of the OVW talent are now superstars in World Wrestling Entertainment.
Orton spoke that as he walked through the back he sensed a hint of nervousness among the talent back stage. He admitted that when Ric Flair, Batista, & John Cena came to FCW they were probably nervous as well but it wasn't because they were good but because Orton beat them all. Orton said that was the single reason why he was the biggest commodity in World Wrestling Entertainment and that he would walk way with the World Heavyweight Title at Survivor Series.
