News On Scotty 2 Hotty, John Cena/NASCAR, Farooq, More
Dave Meltzer is reporting that WWE sent Ron Simmons to rehab after he was apparently in bad shape backstage at the 12/29 Raw taping in Greensboro, NC.
From Scotty 2 Hotty: I am auctioning off my Seattle Sonics shirt that I was given by the Sonics organization while in Seattle for a WWE Smackdown taping last year. You can check it out at the link below. 50% of the profits will be given to Give Kids The World Village in Kissimmee, Florida.
Speaking of the WWE, if you didn't watch Sunday's Daytona 500, you missed a new Gillette commercial staring Cena and members of Gillette's Young Guns, several of the younger drivers in NASCAR. The spot features Cena "thanking" the drivers for teaching him to drive racecars by showing them some wrestling moves. But the drivers are so skilled they turn the tables on Cena and beat him with clotheslines, suplexes, an FU and put him through a table. The spot ended with Ryan Newman hitting Cena with a splash off the top rope. Amazingly enough, Newman won Sunday's race when he passed Tony Stewart on the final lap.
From Toywiz.com: The WWE Wrestling Exclusive Action Figure Diva 2-Pack Beth Phoenix Vs. Maria, which ships in March, is now available for pre-order.
