- Embedded in the video below, David Chokachi talks to The Rock about his weapon in GI Joe: Retaliation.

Who Took the Top Spot on WWE ESPN Power Rankings?, Rock Scheduled for Live! with Kelly & Michael

- The Rock is scheduled to appear on Live! with Kelly and Michael this Wednesday to promote GI Joe: Retaliation. 

- The Shield took the top spot on ESPN's WWE Power Rankings this week. Ryback took the second placed followed by Mark Henry, The Rock and Jack Swagger. ESPN's article also noted how dead the crowd was on Monday's Raw. 

"For a company that prides itself on listening to its fans, I wonder how much weight it gives to 3 hours and 20 minutes of near silence (except for the very loud 'You can't wrestle' chant aimed at Fandango, even if he did deliver a sweet flying leg drop). I think the dead crowd speaks volumes about the upcoming WrestleMania card and the lazy booking that goes along with setting up a string of rematches people weren't really clamoring to see in the first place."

Reason Why Rock Hasn't Promoted WWE, Matt Hardy Engaged

- There have been a lot of people upset about WWE Champion The Rock not promoting WWE or WrestleMania 29 during media appearances in the last week. The reason Rock didn't promote WWE is because the appearances were set up through the studio that produced GI Joe and that's all he was there to promote. 

Regarding GI Joe: Redemption, entertainment industry sources report that the movie needs a lot of promotion right now because they need a huge opening weekend to make any money. It is considered not a good film and the reason it was pushed back from 2012 to now is because they wanted to convert it to 3D to make it more appealing. 

- Congratulations are in order for Matt Hardy and Reby Sky. Word going around is that the two got engaged today.
