- Mostly everyone in attendance for last night’s WWE Hall of Fame induction ceremony at Madison Square Garden noted that the crowd was very rough at times. Donald Trump and Maria Menounos apparently received the biggest boos of the night. One fan noted that Maria looked like she was going to cry. She went long during her speech for Bob Backlund and was met with “WHAT?” chants.
When John Cena was shown on the big screen, the crowd booed him out of the building. WWE aired a Make-A-Wish video featuring Cena and even that got a very negative reaction from the crowd.
- Rob Van Dam and Maria Kanellis recently appeared on the VOCNation.com podcast and teased WWE returns.
RVD said:
“The reason that I’ve been really quiet as far as my (TNA) contract goes, the people that really don’t know, really don’t know. The only person that knows is me. I do have plans to return very soon and wrestle on TV, and it won’t be with any (independent) promotions. I will be wrestling with either TNA or WWE very soon.”
Maria noted that she wants to return to WWE and hopes her fiancee, ROH wrestler Mike Bennett, will come with her. Maria talked about almost returning at WrestleMania 29 for a multi-Divas match:
“I was one of the girls that they called. We were fine on all the details. I’ve owned my name since I was a little girl, so that wasn’t a problem for me. WWE was totally cool with everything, but the storyline just fell through; I was excited about it.”
