News On The Rock, SummerSlam, Mick Foley, & More

There are two auctions up on a charity site for people to get a chance to meet The Rock and attend the World Premiere of his upcoming movie The Game Plan in Los Angeles. You can also attend an after-party. The auction ends later today at 6:00 p.m. There was actually only one auction until yesterday, but they put up a second one earlier today. The bids actually aren't as high one would think they would be as the current bid for the first auction is at $1,400 and the bid for the auction put up today is $550 as of this writing. Also note, the auctions don't include travel and hotel expenses.

The DVD itself has the Benoit vs. Orton match in it as it wasn't edited off. The SummerSlam '05 DVD includes the Benoit vs. Orlando Jordan match.
