For a minute last night, I thought Kane melted about 100 pounds of fat off Jim Ross. For those not catching on, it was a stunt man that was "burnt". Ellis Edwards, who worked for WCW in the past during certain stunts (Vampiro/Sting for example), was the man last night taking the flames from Kane. I was a bit surprised that WWE did not tape this segment, as it came off quite poor live. It was obvious that a stunt double took the place of Ross.

Here is the latest I have heard from a reliable source in WWE about this "Firing" angle of Steve Austin. Linda McMahon should make an appearance this coming Monday to address the issue. However, she will also blame Eric Bischoff as well for Kane's "havoc". Something noone is speaking on, is what Ive heard regarding William Regal. Linda McMahon may in fact bring in William Regal as the "mediator" between Austin & Bischoff since the two do not "get along". Speaking in storylines, the sad thing about all of this, is that we are supposed to buy into all of this between Bischoff and Austin, yet Linda McMahon may not even address punishing Kane for his actions. However if she does, it would be interesting if they "suspend" him. This way, creative can buy some time to figure out what other nonsense they can do with him.

Thanks for reading.
