The Rock Has Advice For Bobby Roode, WWE Makes Offer To Olympian?, SummerSlam Opening Video Note
? Olympic silver medalist Jaime Espinal told ElNuevoDia.com that he received an "interesting offer" from WWE. The 31-year old freestyle wrestler competed at this year's Olympic Games.
"I like it," Espinal said of the offer. "I am quite charismatic, I think. And I like the public, people. I think I would be fine.
"I'll get all offers and see which is the best ever. If (WWE) offers me a more comfortable life and that is the long term makes more sense. If in the struggle (Olympic) offer me things, and it is long term and quieter, as I stay in the fight."
- Actor Michael Rapaport did the voiceover for the SummerSlam opening video that will air tonight.
- Bobby Roode commented on his NXT: Takeover debut last night, and tweeted an old photo of himself dressed as a police officer during a segment on SmackDown with Triple H, as seen below:
