RassleBits - Dale Gagner

----Gagner, who at times refers to himself as Gagne, is having a fun time now with the WWE who own the rights to AWA name. But, Gagner says he owns the rights, so it should be interesting to see how that ends. And the other bit is hilarious!! Lawler was not defending the belt!!! He put it up to get a shot at Mr. Hughes as he would say his hair, not at one time saying he was defending the title as champion or anything.

- Dale Gagner, the AWA promoter being sued by WWE for trademark infringement, claims he has been using the AWA name since 1996, and that WWE was aware of it. In fact, Gagner also claims that WWE sent him talent for his AWA shows in 1999.

- Speaking of Gagner, he did send a cease-and-desist letter to Memphis Wrestling since Jerry Lawler was putting up the AWA World title against Mr. Hughes.
