Raw at risk:

A tropical storm is expected to hit the area on Monday afternoon, and the Governor of Tampa has declared a state of emergency, due to the severe threat the storm poses.

Steve Austin admits copping a rollocking from Vince McMahon:


For the first time Steve Austin has confessed Vince McMahon did call to reprimand him for his podcast interview with Paul Heyman, where he teased interest in a match vs Brock Lesnar...


"I have Vince listed in my iPhone 6 [as] 'VKM', all capital letters. All of a sudden, 'hmmm... it's Mr. Vince McMahon calling me', so I'm thinking, 'okay, I got to answer the phone - he's either calling to tell me it was a great interview with Paul Heyman, we blew the internet up, or he's going to call and eat my ass out about making a match at WrestleMania 32 with Brock Lesnar', which was not my intention. It was the latter."


Bob Backlund:


After multiple delays Bob Backlund's biog will finally be released next month.



Hulk Hogan starts to rebuild:
