-- Following a several year hiatus, "The Informer" is once again featured in WWE Magazine. Though the monthly column largely consisted of made-up stories, it would at times correctly predict future storylines. The feature is now branded as "WWE gossip" and appears to be a mashup of kayfabe and legitimate backstage tales. Highlights from the October 2011 edition are as follows:

* "Would a certain A-list Hollywood celeb please stop calling our offices in hopes of landing a Raw guest-star slot? You had your chance already, pal!"

* "I hear a top-level, WWE Hall of Fame-bound Superstar suggested that Natalya use the double sharpshooter at 2010's WWE TLC."

* "During a recent photo shoot, a Superstar demanded that the makeup artist stop touching up the Divas and focus her attention on him!"

* "A source tells us that The Rock isn't the only Attitude Era Superstar planning to step in the ring in 2012. Hint: There's an "E" in his name."

-- It was reported yesterday that WWE.com's bio on referee Mike Chioda made mention of deceased wrestler Chris Benoit, who is considered persona non grata within the organization. He recalled November 29, 2004, when he and a fellow official declared contrary decisions in a Triple Threat Match for the World Heavyweight Championship; Chioda saw Benoit pinned for the three-count while Edge tapped out simultaneously. The Benoit mention has since been removed.

Meanwhile, WWE.com's bio on referee Jack Doan says Benoit's match with Kurt Angle at WrestleMania X-Seven is one of his most memorable moments.

At first i thought it was Beniot lol

Do the fake rumours get revealed in the following issue? I can see the Hollywood A Lister being another Justin Bieber joke, the makeup artist thing being Cody Rhodes and Edge being the Natalya adviser.

As for the Attitude Era one, there have been rumours that Goldberg may be returning somewhere before the end of the year. Could announce himself as No 1 in the Rumble or something.

Goldberg's not really an Attitude era star though is he? He was in WCW for all of that era and I think, by the way it's worded, they mean someone who was in the WWF at that time.

The only one I could think of that most people would care about is Mick Foley.

Jericho?

if you actually read it it says the rock isnt the only attitude era star stepping in the ring in 2012. So could be another one off type thing. So foley or austin for one match with a huge maybe by it. Austin could have a match and not once do anything risky. Would love foley vs taker with a huge ending, but doubt foley could last 30 mins before to lead to it.
