WWE.comWWE's repackaged brand split is just around the corner, but the company has a problem: they only have around 50 full-time workers on the main talent. And one of those is Bo Dallas. There are more viable stars in a galaxy of supernovas (that's an exploded supergiant, science fans).News has circulated this weekend that Vince McMahon has been furiously flicking through his little black book, looking for anyone the promotion is on good terms with to make at least short-term returns. We already reported earlier that some bona-fide headliners from the past are under consideration; amongst them, Jeff Hardy and Goldberg seem absolute shoe-ins (though don't expect the latter to be a regular fixture on SmackDown).Some more concrete names came our way earlier today, Dave Meltzer reporting that the company has its eye on bringing back Stevie Richards, Carlito (please God don't put him with the Shining Stars), and MVP to fill weekly slots on one of the two shows.

Benjamin was born in 1987, and is still not dead. He variously enjoys classical music, old-school adventure games (they're not dead), and walks on the beach (albeit short - asthma, you know).
He's currently trying to compile a comprehensive history of video game music, yet denies accusations that he purposefully targets niche audiences. He's often wrong about these things.
