'The Bash' Name Change Update, Trump, & More News

– Commercials for The Bash airing on Comcast are still referring to the WWE PPV as The Great American Bash. As previously noted, Vince wanted the name changed to The Bash because Great American Bash reminded him of WCW too much. As a rule of thumb, Vince generally dislikes doing anything WCW did even if it was one of their good ideas.

He also mentioned how referees may average three hours of sleep per night during their two to four days on the road. Cone has been with WWE for three years now.
