– As seen on Monday’s RAW, John Cena came to the ring for his Extreme Rules contract signing with a chain wrapped around his fist. The WWE website has a new article up looking at Edge’s pep talk to Cena that speculates whether Cena will bring out his “thug” side in order to defeat Brock Lesnar. Here’s an excerpt:
“Maybe a stern message from The Master Manipulator was what Cena needed all along. On Sunday night at Extreme Rules, will Cena heed Edge’s call and unleash ruthless aggression to shock Lesnar? Or is he just going to wind up the first victim in Brock’s fearsome quest to take over WWE?”
– Abraham Washington continued to offer his managerial services to WWE superstars on Friday’s SmackDown. He told WWE Tag Team Champions Epico and Primo that they need to tell him by Monday whether they want him represent them.
AW also offered his professional services to Ryback.
– TMZ reports that Buff Bagwell is still hospitalized but breathing and eating on his own after the bad car accident on Monday. Bagwell was hooked up to breathing tubes while emergency room doctors worked on major injuries to his face and spine. The breathing tube was removed on Wednesday and Buff is now talking and eating solid foods.
Some of Buff’s WCW co-workers like Sting, Diamond Dallas Page, Rick Steiner and Scott Steiner have contacted him while in the hospital.
