Meanwhile, The Herald Sun has another story about Hogan in Australia, in which he praises the toughness of Australian Rules footie players. He’s in the country to promote WWE’s tour in August.

– WWE ran three different videos on TV this week to promote the return of Tough Enough on June 23 on USA.

– Joey Styles tweeted the following:

– Todd Grisham recently spoke with BackSportsPage about his career and transitioning from WWE to ESPN. When asked if WWE was a good experience for him, he said: “For sure. I would say WWE was an invaluable. There is nothing they can throw at me now at ESPN that is any worse then what I had in WWE. I don’t have Vince yelling in my ear and I do not have crazy fans yelling at me. I remember doing a PPV pre show in the concourse, it was Maria Kenellis and I. WWE thought it would be real cool to have the fans around us. As we are about to go on the air, the crowd started chanting “F*#k you Grisham”. We go on the air with fans chanting F-bombs about me. We go on air business as usual. You learn to block it out after a while. To me WWE helped a lot.
