Greetings and cheers from under the black Resistol hat from London, England, the site of Saturday nights UK Pay-Per-View Insurrextion. Terri and myself have been doing a variety of media appearances and interviews promoting Saturday Nights event at Wembley Arena. These efforts will continue thru Saturday morning and seem to be going very well on all accounts. The event starts at 7:00 p.m. Saturday in the UK after which everyone will return to the USA to prepare for Mondays live RAW in Hartford. The fans here are very knowledgeable and seem to be genuinely excited about World Wrestling Entertainment being in the marketplace.
Terri has been a big hit here this week, especially with the male presenters (TV hosts) we have encountered. Those studios sure are kept chilly, for the record. We were a few blocks away from the Mayday Protest in London Wednesday, where 6,000 police were deployed to maintain some level of civility. The only excitement of merit came when several young ladies took their shirts off to protest topless. Ah, you gotta love freedom of expression!
