Backstage Update on Vince’s Determination to Book Cena Strong

As we reported a few weeks ago, it was Vince McMahon’s idea to have John Cena run through the Wyatt Family at the end of Raw, as he wanted Cena to bounce back strong from his loss to Brock Lesnar at SummerSlam.

According to PWInsider.com, Vince has been “drilling” into the creative team the idea that WWE needs to prove to Cena fans he is not a lost cause as a result of the one-sided loss to Lesnar.

There were several WWE officials who were against the idea of Cena being booked so strongly, and specifically felt the idea of Cena dominating the Wyatts was a bad idea, but Vince refused to change his mind.

Ric Flair Advertised for Next Week’s SD! Taping

Ric Flair is being advertised for next week’s WWE Smackdown taping in Biloxi, Mississippi. Flair is being advertised as the special guest referee for the Roman Reigns vs Randy Orton match.

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.

Nick attended New York University and graduated in 2001 with a degree in Drama.

Nick first entered the internet wrestling community back in 2004 when he became the co-host of The Voice of Wrestling Radio Show. From there, Nick made the transition from radio personality to editor when he began working with WrestleZone in 2008.

Nick is a member of two Off-Broadway theatre companies, Another Urban Riff, and the Drama Desk Award winning Godlight Theatre Company. Nick has appeared in over a dozen Off-Broadway plays since he moved to New York City, and has shot several short and feature length films.
