Edge To Star In WWE Film, Skip Sheffield Injury Update, More
– Deadline.com reports that Adam "Edge" Copeland will be featured in the next WWE Films project, titled Bending the Rules. Copeland will star opposite Jamie Kennedy, playing a dirty cop who is charged with corruption. Kennedy will play the DA who wants to take the cop down. Production has already started in New Orleans. Jessica Walter (Arrested Development), Jennifer Esposito (Rescue Me, Crash), Alicia Witt, and Phillip Baker Hall are also attached to the project.
– As reported on earlier, the fear is that Nexus member Skip Sheffield suffered a broken ankle at a WWE event over the weekend in Hawaii and that he could be missing a lot of time as a result. Last night's RAW was taped in Los Angeles last week following Summerslam so they were safe for that show. It remains to be seen if an angle will be run on next week's 900th episode of RAW in Boston to explain why he won't be used on a regular basis (that is of course assuming the injury is as bad as it is being reported among the wrestling media). Believe it or not, there has already been talk in WWE of killing the Nexus angle by October.
