It was previously reported that Rob Van Dam was expected to finish his current WWE run after last night’s Summerslam pay-per-view.
There is still a possibility that he could work this week’s television tapings, but nothing is confirmed at this point. RVD’s last match could have been last night against Cesaro; the word going around is that he is in fact done and will return to WWE when ready.
Brock’s ‘Grandpa’ Comment
The “party’s over, grandpa” delivered by Brock Lesnar during Hulk Hogan’s RAW Birthday Bash was said to be unscripted.
It’s being said that Lesnar could have come up with it on his own, with possible assistance from Paul Heyman, but it was not planned.
Dana Warrior Praises WWE
As previously reported, the Ultimate Warrior‘s wife, Dana, was in attendance at Summerslam with her daughters. Dana praised the company for keeping the Ultimate Warrior character alive, and mentioned how much fun the event was.
Dana, posting from the Ultimate Warrior Twitter account, posted a photo of herself with a new Stephanie McMahon “Steph” shirt, and took note of all of the support for her recently deceased husband’s legendary character:
Thanks for all the Warrior tees and signs! Girls and I spotted them all and an orange #TeamWarrior sign stood out in the sea of #SummerSlam!
