Backstage News On Cena's Recovery And Possible HIAC Role, Why Phoenix Is Attending NYCCC

- We noted before that WWE Diva Beth Phoenix was attending this weekend's New York City Comic-Con but is not advertised. She's attending as a fan with her boyfriend Edge, who will apparently be appearing but is not on the NYCCC website. Here's the wrestler line-up for this weekend:

* Dolph Ziggler on Saturday
* Booker T on Saturday
* Vader on Thursday and Saturday
* Angelina Love on Friday, Saturday and Sunday
* Velvet Sky on Friday, Saturday and Sunday
* The Bella Twins on Friday, Saturday and Sunday
* Brutus Beefcake on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday
* Greg "The Hammer" Valentine on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday
* Tito Santana on Friday, Saturday and Sunday
* Robbie E on Friday
* Kevin Nash and Kelly Kelly will also be appearing

- PWInsider reports that the latest word on John Cena's injury is that he's recovering slowly from the elbow surgery. It remains to be seen if Cena will be ready for Hell In a Cell and may end up being a "down to the wire" decision. It was expected that WWE would have a solid answer on Monday's RAW but that's not confirmed.

- One idea that was discussed at RAW this past week was to have Cena be the special referee for CM Punk vs. Ryback at Hell In a Cell, if they have to go with Ryback as the challenger.
