Steve Austin's Next Movie, Orton/Cena At Survivor Series?, Mr. Perfect, More
Stone Cold Steve Austin's next film project, titled "Damage", will focus on an illegal underground fighting community. The project is not a WWE Studios film. Austin is playing the lead role of John Brickner, a recently paroled convict who is forced into the groups. The film will commence filming on 10/17 in the Vancouver, British Columbia area, directed by Jeff King from a script by Frank Hannah.
As we reported yesterday, the 2008 Survivor Series poster has been released and features Randy Orton. While original estimates had Orton returning to the ring in late October, there is a chance he'll be kept out of action until the PPV just to be safe. There are also hopes that John Cena will be healthy in time Survivor Series as well, since the event is being held in his hometown of Boston, Massachusetts.
