Brock Lesnar
It was reported during this week’s WWE Smackdown tapings that Brock Lesnar is being advertised for next week’s show.
The Wrestling Observer Newsletter noted that although he was announced for ‘next week’ it could have been possible he’s getting a two week push for his first official Smackdown appearance in almost twelve years. The Observer noted that Lesnar isn’t being advertised for next week’s show in Portland, but is for the Ontario, California show the following week. It still is very possible Lesnar was just a late addition; Lesnar is not scheduled for the ‘go-home’ RAW before Fast Lane, but is only scheduled for that Smackdown as of now.

Virgil
Former WWE/WCW Superstar Virgil (Michael Jones) is starring in a new movie called Bridge and Tunnel, which is now available on video-on-demand services including AT&T U-Verse, Verizon, Amazon, iTunes and Google Play.

Virgil plays the role of Kony, a local barfly who befriends the protagonists. The movie, which has won several awards for best cast, stars Annet Mahendru (The X-Files, The Americans), Arjun Gupta (The Magicians, Nurse Jackie), Joe Murphy, and Chris Viemeister and features original music by John Nolan (of Taking Back Sunday) and Vinnie Caruana (of I Am The Avalanche/The Movielife).
