PWInsider reports that Sting and The Undertaker are both booked for Monday’s post-WrestleMania RAW in San Jose. This doesn’t necessarily mean that they will be appearing live but they are booked to be there.
1Wrestling.com’s Bill Apter posted a video to his YouTube page last night stating that he spoke with Jerry “The King” Lawler about the rumors of him not hosting this year’s WWE Hall of Fame ceremony in favor of Eve Marie. Lawler called it a “BS rumor.”
NXT Star Hideo Itami won the Axxess NXT Tournament earning a spot in the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal at WrestleMania 31 Kickoff Pre-Show.
Below is a video of Itami’s reaction to earning his spot in the WrestleMania 31 Kickoff Pre-show match.
WWE announced that the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal has been moved to the WrestleMania 31 Kickoff Pre-show.
F4WOnline reports that the change was made due to officials timing out the show. After time was given to the big matches and angles, they apparently had to cut the battle royal match from the main card.
During WrestleMania week big announcements always happen and this year makes no exception. It has been reported on wwe.com that WWE film Studios is teaming up with rock and roll legend Gene Simmons. Together they will launch Erebus. A movie line dedicated to the horror genre.
Being a huge horror movie buff this news makes me extremely excited. Can you imagine the possibilities? A movie about “the new face of fear” Bray Waytt and the tragic death of sister Abigail? Or maybe a film chronicling the Story of “the Devils favorite demon” Kane or maybe even someone like Paige screaming bloody murder only to be the badass “final girl”
The possibilities are endless and as a WWE fan and horror enthusiast I’m hopeful for what the birth of “Erebus” will bring to the big screen.

It was reported earlier on WrestlingInc.com that Triple H’s entrance for his match with Sting would feature footage from WWE Hall of Famer “Arnold Schwarzenegger’s” upcoming Teminator movie Genysis
Now WrestlingInc reports that word out of Santa Clara is that HHH will be getting a full blown Terminator theamed entrance and one could expect HHH to be wearing the infamous leather jacket Arnold wore in all the films.
Who’s excited? I know I am entrances are so much bigger at mania and HHH is a person that always delivers.

Trish Stratus will not be traveling to California for this weekend’s WrestleMania 31 festivities. She was scheduled to appear at WrestleCon on Friday & Saturday and at WrestleMania Axxess on Sunday.
Trish posted last week on Twitter that her father had passed away:
NXT Women’s Championship: (C) Sasha Banks def. Alexa Bliss – submission
Emma gets in Bayley’s ear, telling her that she’s too nice. Bayley tries to break it down to Emma and Emma slapped Bayley across the face.
Hideo Itami and Tyler Breeze talk smack backstage.
Enzo, Cass & Carmella was hanging backstage and Blake & Murphy interrupted and gave Carmella a bracelet. Enzo & Cass was not impressed.
NXT Championship: (C) Kevin Owens def. Finn Balor
For the first time in years, Jerry “The King” Lawler will not be hosting the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony. According to PWInsider, hosting this year will be WWE Diva, Eva Marie

I don’t know the reasoning behind this, but I do know that I don’t like the change. I just don’t understand why WWE would replace Lawler, who I think is the perfect host for the event with someone unproven like Eva m Marie.
