Drew McIntyre was stuck in the United Kingdom on Sunday, and no, it’s not a work or a storyline of any kind. Even though he flew to the UK with only his UK and not his US passport (he has both), he was not allowed to board a return flight to the States without a US passport. He’s been a US resident for years and is obviously a well known WWE superstar so why anybody is throwing up objections to him coming back here is just mind boggling, but WWE is confident it will be “worked out” and he’ll be home in time for SummerSlam in New Jersey this week. (PWI) Besides — the last time I checked you only needed one passport to travel at any international airport. If you had to have a passport for every country you were coming from or going to, wouldn’t that totally defeat the POINT of having a passport in the first place?

Lex Luger talks about beating Hulk Hogan in 1997 and having a five day run as the world champion: “I didn’t find out until I was almost ready to go to the ring. They asked Hulk, ‘Who do you want to do this with?’ He said, ‘100%, I want to do it with Lex.’ That was huge props from one of the biggest stars ever in the business. That was a great feeling, to come back and have the opportunity to rise to that level in the company again.”
Ellie Price just found out her vocals were used for Fatal Influence’s theme song by Def Rebel — but she’s not mad about it. She licensed a vocal pack for other musicians to use but does admit she “wishes people knew” it was her.
Chad Gable says his injury is a rotator cuff: “Unfortunate circumstances but you know what? I’m looking at the silver lining here. I got a little injury to my rotator cuff but what it did do was buy me some time off the road to be home with my family and do stuff like this. Come to a baseball game on a Sunday which I never get to do. So, find the bright side, right?”
