AXXESS UPDATE, BEST TO THE HARDY FAMILY & SCOTT DAWSON, HURRICANE AT PC, KANE, NIA AND MORE WWE NEWS

By Mike Johnson on 2018-09-17 23:00:00

For those who have asked about the status of AXXESS over Wrestlemania 35, multiple sources have confirmed to PWInsider.com that WWE has locked down a location for the event.  The company was recently at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center in Newark, NJ doing a site survey and as we reported two weeks ago, they were at Lincoln Center in NYC.  We have been told Lincoln Center was never under consideration for AXXESS and may be used as a staging location for a WWE presentation over Wrestlemania 35 week.  WWE will be doing an AXXESS over Summerslam weekend in Toronto in August 2019 as well, the first AXXESS in Canada since Wrestlemania X8 back in 2002.

Our best to the Hardy famly as well as Scott Dawson as their homes were damaged during Hurricane Florence last week.  Dawson noted on Twitter that his family's home was under water.    It was noted on social media that parts of Matt Hardy's house (where all the Broken Universe content was filmed) were flooded as well.  I know there are a lot of displaced families right now in the Carolinas and Virginia, so if you can donate to the Red Cross or another worthy charity to help them out, please do.

I know this will shock everyone, but Brock Lesnar was not at Raw.

It was announced that Kane will be in the Undertaker's corner at the 10/6 Super Show-Down event vs. Triple H, his first announced appearance for WWE since becoming the Mayor of Knox County, TN.   It was also announced that Shawn Michaels will be in Triple H's corner that night, which certainly sounds like a set-up for a tag match.  Saudi Arabia perhaps?

Nia Jax made her official return to Raw tonight, returning from a leg issue that required physical therapy.

Shane "Hurricane" Helms is at the WWE Performance Center this week as a guest trainer.  

This Friday's edition of WWE Main Event will feature Mike Kanellis vs. Zack Ryder and Apollo Crews vs. Mojo Rawley.
