WWE HIAC Pre-Show Preview (Video), JBL Talks HIAC, & More

— As previously reported, Newsday.com is featuring an article noting that former WWE CEO Linda McMahon has spent an estimated $42.6 million on her second run for the U.S. Senate in Connecticut this year. This comes close to matching the $50 million she spent in 2010.

— John “Bradshaw” Layfield confirmed on his official Facebook page that he would be part of the commentary team tonight at the Hell in a Cell PPV. JBL will join Michael Cole and Jim Ross. Layfield also commented on the main event tonight between CM Punk and Ryback for the WWE Championship. “Huge challenge tonight for many, especially Ryback-I think he will do great, but you never know until it happens. A HUGE difference between wrestling top guys and closing a PPV. This is truly baptism by fire. My bet? I think Ryback does well, he’s out there with ‘the best in the world’ so expectations are very high. Sink or swim, lights are on bright.”
