Latest On When Jeff Hardy Will Leave WWE, Update On "Pretty Ricky" Character

— Internally, the feeling at last night’s SmackDown/ECW taping is that Jeff Hardy will work through SummerSlam and then leave WWE.

— While WWE has not run any “Pretty Ricky” vignettes as of late (a vignette was scratched from the script two weeks ago), the idea is not dead. Unfortunately for Ron Killings, no one in creative is really backing him despite his charisma. His age (37) may be working against him as the company is going on something of a youth movement. However, it has been noted that Vince McMahon loves his “Pretty Ricky” character.

— WWE developmental wrestler Sicodelico, Jr. has been renamed Espiral. On April 17, 2009, it was announced that Sicodelico, Jr. had signed a contract with WWE and was heading to their developmental promotion. After competing in a few matches unmasked under his real name {Aaron Rodriquez), he soon began wearing his mask again and adopted the ring name Espiral.
