- Regarding Rey Mysterio possibly being injured at Tuesday’s SmackDown tapings, WWE’s internal injury report for this week came out and Rey was not listed on there. Either WWE officials don’t know if Rey is injured, it’s being kept off internal reports or the injury wasn’t significant. - We noted before that it was a Vince McMahon decision to make changes to Big E and Cesaro’s name this past week. Dave Meltzer of The Wrestling Observer adds that somebody within WWE thought “Antonio” sounded like the name of a guy who wasn’t tough, and that’s why he’s just being called Cesaro now. - Former Spirit Squad Member Mike Mondo spoke with Newsday about Dolph Ziggler’s success following their Spirit Squad days. “The fact that he’s had a lot of success with the Intercontinental title, and winning the world title and the Money in the Bank, that’s really cool,” Mondo said. “So if was not going to be me, I’m glad the next guy in line was Dolph.” Mondo also discussed working WrestleMania with Vince McMahon and Shawn Michaels. “I remember just looking around at the Squad members and thinking, ‘We made it to the dance. We made it to WrestleMania,’” said Mondo, who got further encouragement from Michaels once inside the ring. “He said to us while we were down there, ‘Welcome to WrestleMania boys.’” -WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley spoke with The Bellevue Report about how he rarely gets heckled by fans. “I tend not to get hecklers,” Foley said. “I tend to get over-exuberant wrestling fans. Fans who don’t always understand that they shouldn’t shout out the endings to my stories. Because, if they’re fans, they already know how the stories end. Those people enjoy it, but it’s frustrating they don’t let me finish the stories. Fortunately, I’m experienced entertaining on Friday and Saturday nights, when some people are drunker than usual. But if that happens, I just stand back and let the club handle it. I don’t fear a heckler. I don’t take pride in shredding them apart, but I’m not afraid either. We’re supposed to be having laughs… I take honor in the act of entertaining people who laid down their money.” Also in the interview, Foley talks about his first time on stage, if he’s ever bombed really badly, his world tour and much more.
