John Cena Comments On Time Off, Axel Talks Relationship With Heyman, Brisco Having Surgery

- WWE Intercontinental Champion Curtis Axel recently spoke with SJ-R.com and talked about his relationship with Paul Heyman:

"He's my No. 1 mentor right now, other than my grandpa, who I talk to every now and then. But I travel with Paul. I'm around Paul more than I am my family. At first he was teaching me, teaching me. Now he's become more of a friend."

- WWE Hall of Famer Gerald Brisco is having surgery on his right hand today, which is his 67th birthday.

- John Cena tweeted about his time off this morning:

"Most @WWEUniverse @WWE superstars keep asking me if I'm enjoying my time 'off'. 'Off'= therapy 2times/day + strength = #evenstronger"
