WWE.com interview
Triple H talks to WWE.com about Hell in a Cell matches and his own experiences in the cage.
Hell in a Cell changes your life… not just your career. You’re not going to walk out of it the same way you walked into it, if you walk out of it unassisted.
Sam Roberts interview
Ambrose is a guest on the Sam Roberts Wrestling Show to discuss if Daniel Bryan and Roman Reigns being injured has created an opening for him in the main event scene in WWE.
Injuries are always unfortunate and sometimes if things are spread a little thinner, you might have to put more work on your plate that night because the show must go on. I’m not trying to take anyone’s spot in the business. I’m trying to have my own spot that no one can take because it’s my spot, it’s my thing. I’m trying to do my thing, not really worried about where everybody else is. But stuff happens and you just have to roll with the punches.
Sportingnews.com interview
Jericho talks to Sportingnews.com about his latest autobiography and why it will appeal to current WWE fans.
This is the first of the books that I’ve done where most of my fans can almost follow along with the bouncing ball because they were there when it happens. They can kind of go back and relive their own experiences of reading these things or and being to go I remember when that happened, I remember when I saw that. It’s the first time that’s happened so I think a lot of people are really able to put this into their own experience because it’s only from the last six, seven years that these stories have been written, even up to the return at the Royal Rumble last year where the book ends. Whether you know all of the stories or some to them, you can relate to your own personal experiences as well.
Liverpool Echo interview
Dallas talks to the Liverpool Echo to discuss NXT and what is special about the brand.
NXT, the developmental system in the WWE today, is so different and so much bigger and better than it’s ever been before. The production values that go into the developmental system and into the NXT show are not much different than Raw and Smackdown. You really get the opportunity to try things yourself and really find yourself. The intimate crowd that NXT has, with the same people coming back, it’s almost like a family.
Comments on Hell in a Cell
Ross updates the blog section of his website to discuss mid-card champions and WWE’s Hell in a Cell pay-per-view.
I still think that creativity as it relates to stunts, etc for this Sunday’s HIAC will be challenging considering that there will be two Hell in a Cell matches on the show both in a PG world. Anxious to see how the creative minds come up with elements that will make the two main events special, different and perceived as ‘dangerous.’
Yahoo Sports interview
McMahon talks to Yahoo Sports about Susan G. Komen and WWE facing competition.
think competition is always healthy, but what we look at as competition is everything out there —all entertainment and sports programming because we really are such a unique hybrid — there’s nothing like us in the world. Monday Night Football is a competitor to Monday Night RAW. Yes, I think competition is incredibly healthy, no matter where it comes from.
CBS DC interview
Jericho talks to CBS DC about when he will return for another run in the WWE.
Over the last four of five years my schedules and dates surround Fozzy, and WWE has kind of been not as much of a priority. I still love doing it, but I realize it’s not something I’m going to be doing forever. I realized that years ago. To go back for the European shows, Roman Reigns got hurt, there was some injuries and I always enjoy working overseas. So, it’s kind of just a quick little run. Other than that I don’t know. When this Fozzy tour ends, whenever that may be, if I have time available and the WWE has something interesting for me to do.
Mix Philadelphia interview
Rollins talks to Mix Philadelphia about The Shield’s place in history among other legendary wrestling factions.
The Shield was only around for..what? Two years? And we did A LOT in 2 years. I think the fact that people even take those 2 years and put them up against the reputations of those other groups really says a lot about what we were able to accomplish in that short period of time…It’s definitely something, two years I’m very proud of and I’m happy to say we certainly left a scar on WWE.
Appearance announcement
WWE announces Hogan will appear as a special guest on the October 20th edition of Monday Night RAW in Kansas City. The event’s ad reads:

The Rack radio interview
Kane sits down with The Rack radio show to discuss acting and his favorite Hell in a Cell moment.
Well, my favorite would have to be, of course, my debut and ripping the door off and going in and giving a tombstone piledriver to The Undertaker and having Vince (McMahon) screaming ‘That’s gotta be Kane!’; that would far and away have to be my favorite moment.
Addresses comeback rumors
Austin addresses rumors that he will be making a comeback to WWE in the near future on his podcast, The Steve Austin Show.
No, man, I’m not looking to make a return. I don’t see that I have time in my schedule or the desire to climb back in the ring to start taking bumps again.
Between the Ropes interview
Jericho talks to Between the Ropes about his most recent WWE run and feuds.
The Bray Wyatt cage match in Baltimore and then the Randy Orton – Night of Champions match in Nashville I thought were two…whatever a five star match is. Two really really really good matches that I would put on my list of all-time favorites. And that was good to know because as the years go by, I feel just as good as I ever did.
Another Wrestling Podcast interview
Poffo talks to Another Wrestling Podcast about the upcoming Randy Savage documentary.
My mother didn’t want to be in it, and I talked her into it, and she was phenomenal. You know she’s going to be 88 years old in January. She’s so…I don’t want to get negative, she’s still harboring the resentment that nobody offered her condolences from the WWE. And I said, “Mom look at it this way, this is not about the Macho Man, it’s about the Macho Fan. And they’re the ones who gave him his lifestyle. And they’re the ones that made him go on top of the mountain, and he lived there for many, many years, and he had a great life, and it’s all because of the Macho Fan.”
Alternativenation.net interview
Kane talks to Alternativenation.net about Sting coming to WWE and Triple H’s leadership.
He’s done a tremendous job with the Performance Center in Orlando, and with NXT. They have a great product, the guys that are coming out of there are really great. I was just thinking about that the other day, you could always tell there was something special about him. Certainly he knows the wrestling business like no one else, he’s got a fabulous mind. When you’re talking about people I’ve worked with who have influenced me as far as character development, he’s one of them. I don’t know which is more surprising, the fact that he’s in the role that he’s in, or that I’m still here in WWE 20 years later.
Busted Open interview
Jericho talks to Busted Open Radio about fans buying into professional wrestling in the modern age.
Well, it is different. After Michaels there was the Mysterio angle. That is what I pitched to Vince to work around Rey’s mask. Vince said ‘they don’t care about the mask’, and I said ‘of course they do that is why they buy it.’ We had this guy wear a mask and never explained what it means too him. I want his mask. Vince said ‘Why do you want his mask’? I said because I am a bully. I want his milk money. I don’t want any milk. I am going to take it and throw it into the lake. Then Vince loved it. Then with the CM Punk feud in 2012 my thing I wanted to take it to this next level I wanted to tattoo him. Vince loved it and then was kind of talked out of it.
Reddit AMA chat
Jericho hosts a live Reddit AMA chat to answer fan questions about Dean Ambrose, Chris Benoit and his thoughts on Bray Wyatt’s future in WWE.

Roberts takes to Instagram to release his first public statement since his release from WWE.
Announcing was my dream, until I realized the absolute best part was using my position to help others. It brought me so much joy to bring a smile to a fellow fan’s face.
VOC Nation interview
Kharma talks to VOC Nation about her time in WWE and if she has any regrets over her short time with the company.
‘Regret’ is a strong word but I’m pretty confident that, had I had a longer run, I would have had that belt across my shoulder. I’m extremely confident that would’ve happened.
Handicap match street fight announcement
Stephanie McMahon announces handicap street fight main event for the October 20th edition of Monday Night RAW. The match will feature Cena and Ambrose taking on Kane, Orton and Rollins.
