- Newcomers this week: Gino Hernandez (in from Southwest)
- Leaving the territory: Grappler (Lynn Denton; went to Southwest) & Grappler II (Tony Anthony; also went to Southwest)
- Since Stagger Lee and Junkyard Dog are the same person from a continuity standpoint, I do not consider them as two separate people when it comes to calculating their SPOT rating. So the number for Stagger Lee's "last week" rating was actually that of JYD, and bookings for both personas were used to calculate his rating.
