Wrestling Veteran Undergoing Surgery, Hype for Steve Austin and Paige Tonight, WWE Star Turns 33

– Former ECW, WCW, TNA and WWE star Jerry Lynn will be undergoing neck surgery on Thursday morning to replace three degenerating discs in his neck, remove spurs in the neck and fuse his vertebrae. This is the first of several surgeries Lynn needs as he’s looking at having back surgery once he’s recovered from Thursday’s operation. Lynn has been in a lot of pain over the past few months and had been hoping to avoid surgery but recently found out he has no choice but to go under the knife. Brian Fritz has launched a GoFundMe page to help with Lynn’s medical bills at this link. As of this writing, 11 people have raised raised $515 of a $15,000 goal in 22 hours.

– Damien Sandow turns 33 years old today. Also, today would have been the 91st birthday of Karl Gotch and the 80th birthday of Haystacks Calhoun.

– As noted, the WWE Network interview with Steve Austin and Paige will take place tonight after RAW goes off the air. We will have coverage here on the site. WWE posted this hype for the interview:

“”Stone Cold” Steve Austin will interview Paige live on the award-winning WWE Network tonight after Raw. What will the former Divas and NXT Women’s Champion have to say about the ongoing revolution in the Divas division?

Since coming to WWE by way of NXT, the brash Brit quickly made a name for herself when she defeated AJ Lee in the spring of 2014 to capture the Divas Title. In 2015, she went on to compete on The Grandest Stage of Them All when she teamed with AJ to beat The Bella Twins.

With the WWE Universe talking about the current excitement surrounding the Divas division, there will certainly be no shortage of hot topics to discuss with The Texas Rattlesnake, including Team Paige’s victory at WWE Battleground.”
