Why Sheamus Was Not On RAW, How Did Hercules Fare At The Box Office?, WrestleMania NBC Promo
- Above is a promo for WrestleMania 30: The World Television Premiere, which will air on NBC this Sunday evening.
- Hercules starring The Rock pulled in $29 million over the weekend, which put it in second place behind Lucy. It beat studio estimates, and brought in another $28.7 million overseas. It will open in several other countries this weekend, including Finland, India, Netherlands, Norway and Portugal. Paramount's head of domestic marketing and distribution Megan Colligan told The Associated Press that the film's opening reaffirmed The Rock's appeal with the audience.
"He can be very serious and menacing and imposing, and he has this ability to melt it all away, which is why women show up for a movie like this," Colligan said. "He has a lot of appeal for kids."
- Sheamus is in Ireland, which is why he wasn't at tonight's RAW. He tweeted this photo earlier today from the Cliffs of Moher:
