Baron Corbin Takes Over Super Bowl Opening Day

Super Bowl 54 is set to take place on Sunday, so yesterday marked the start of media week for the biggest game in the country. During the opening day, WWE’s Baron Corbin was on hand with FOX, and helped interview some of the players that are getting ready to play.

Van Hammer Arrested And Off WrestleCon

Former WCW superstar Van Hammer was set to appear at the upcoming WrestleCon, but due to circumstances surrounding his recent arrest, he was pulled from the convention. Van Hammer (real name Mark Hildreth) was arrested over the weekend for DUI after he struck a five-year-old with his vehicle and fled the scene.

The former wrestler was traveling 58 miles per hour in a 35 mph zone when he struck the boy, who suffered possible internal injuries and “road rash.” He was declared to be in stable condition late Sunday.
