WWE Rumors: Announcers Told Not to Mention Vader, More on Brock Lesnar/SummerSlam


-- While WWE did show a graphic on Raw on Vader after he passed away, the announcers were reportedly told not to talk about it or even mention Vader by name, according to the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter. The company also decided against showing a video package, which is just a "decision" that they made.

-- In a follow-up to a story we posted last week about Vince McMahon making a decision to take Brock Lesnar out of SummerSlam and delaying what appears to be his last remaining match with the company until later in a year, a source reached out to us and stated that this news is "not false, but definitely premature." It was further stated that while Vince has certainly considered keeping Lesnar off of the PPV, this is just one of several ideas being tossed around.
