– Curtis Axel spoke to the Phoenix New Times this week to promote that August 26th episode of RAW from Phoenix. In response to criticisms that his promo work needs improvement, he said:
“I don’t know where that comes from. I just never really have a chance to talk. Now that I’m shown more on TV, I’ll have more of an opportunity. People say what they want just from one little rumor, so I don’t pay attention to any of that crap, what people say about me. I just do my thing and I know what I can do and I do well, and I don’t let that stuff worry me.”
– Former WWE Diva Stacy Keibler will appear on tonight’s “Late Night With Jimmy Fallon” on NBC. Also on the show tonight are Jeff Bridges and John Stamos, who will be reuniting his band “Jesse and The Rippers” from the TV show Full House.
– Rob Van Dam is being advertised for the first two episode scheduled for the first two WWE RAW shows after SummerSlam (8/19 from Anaheim, CA & 8/26 from Phoenix, AZ). He’s also booked for WWE’s upcoming live events tour of Australia, so he appears to be working a pretty active schedule.
