— The word going around is that Eugene’s WWE release stems almost entirely from his appearance on last Monday’s RAW. Looking noticeably heavier and less physically fit than when he was last seen on WWE TV, Eugene, according to sources, made a bad first impression, leading Vince McMahon to call for the release.
Originally brought back to work with younger wrestlers, Nick “Eugene” Dinsmore was quickly called back to television with his old “simpleton” gimmick. Given that WWE wanted Eugene on television, the fact that he did not look in shape proved to be a deal breaker.
— With Summerslam in Los Angeles, sources anticipate a number of celebrities attending the event. WWE wants Shaquille O’Neal to interfere in the Chris Jericho/Big Show vs. Cryme Tyme match, but whether or not that happens largely hinges on WWE’s ability to secure O’Neal for a future RAW telecast.
