– The Rock’s movie Furious 7 continues to crush it at the box office. Already in the top 10 highest grossing movies of all time, it’s taken in over 800 million dollars in less than two weeks. It’s expected to finish at about $350 domestic and $850 foreign, for a total of $1.2 billion. Furious 7 will take in more revenue this year than WWE and UFC combined.
– Jey Uso undergoing surgery and being out of action for the next 6 months is the reason the Lucha Dragons were called up to the main roster the night after WrestleMania 31. With the Usos on hold until the end of the year, WWE needed to quickly elevate a new babyface tag team to challenge Kidd & Cesaro, which is why we’ve seen the Dragons on such a roll in recent weeks.
– Former TNA Knockout (Sarah Stock/Dark Angel from CMLL) was at the WWE Performance Center this week as a guest trainer teaching Lucha style.
