Various News: Raven Says He Won’t Be Inducted Into WWE Hall of Fame, Trailer For Justin Credible Documentary, New Book On Worst PPV Ever

February 24, 2018 | Posted by Joseph Lee

– In a post on Twitter, Raven says it’s incredibly unlikely that he’ll ever be inducted into the WWE.

– A new trailer has been released for the documentary CREDIBLE, about the recover of PJ “Justin Credible” Polaco. It’s being produced by Diamond Dallas Page and David Gere, executive produced by Douglas Cartelli Productions and directed by Eric ‘Danger’ Nyenhuis. The production will happen in Polaco’s home in Connecticut, as well as Atlanta. It features appearances from Jake Roberts, Scott Hall and others.

Here’s a synopsis: The story follows PJ on his very difficult road to recovery from a very long battle with addiction. It provides an intimate look into his life at home and his struggle through legal and personal issues on his way to Atlanta for help from friend and WWE Hall Of Famer “Diamond” Dallas Page. Polaco’s recent appearance while intoxicated at an appearance on the independent promotion Blitzkrieg Pro prompted the call from Page to offer help.

Polaco said: “It’s a turning point in my life. I’m now forty-four years old, so it’s really a story about second chances, about making things right for myself and for my family. It’s about redemption and helping others with addiction and alcoholism. It’s a real look at my life, as a professional wrestler, a father and a husband battling for his recovery.

– Chris Graham is set to release a new book called The Worst Wrestling Pay-Per-View Ever, about the 2011 Night of Legends event. The show aired live and featured names like Kevin Nash, “Hacksaw” Jim Duggan and The Rock ‘n Roll Express. It was universally reviled. Graham was one of the men on the creative team for the event.

He said: “It’s always bothered me that the show didn’t come off the way we had it planned, but that’s part of the business, as I would learn later. As a fan, I think it can be helpful to hear from somebody who has worked on the other side of the curtain as to how the business really works, and when I say that, I don’t mean to make it out to be something sinister or underhanded. Wrestling is a lot of fun, but, man, yeah, it can be hard to make sense of it when you’re backstage. One thing they can’t take away from me is that I was able to help make a live wrestling pay-per-view show happen. I wish things had worked out differently, but, hey, I wouldn’t trade my time in the wrestling business for anything in the world.
