Rock on the cover of Ebony magazineThe Rock graces the cover of the July edition of Ebony, which just hit newsstands.

Also on RAW, Christian and Perry Saturn won qualifying matches to advance into the King of the Ring tournament! - 6/12/01 Update on Undertakers wife stalker"A point to be known is that Rhyno was on a local radio station last Monday, and used the line "I like animals", which turns out to be the same line that the stalker used while spying on Sara Monday night. Just thought you'd like to know".This has not yet been confirmed, so for now should be taken as you see it, and as a RUMOUR only. The Big Show has also been rumoured to be the man beind the mask. This would make sense, if the above extract from a radio interview is proven to be incorrect, as the WWF has shown interest in doing a lenghty Taker/Show feud, but problems with Injury for both men, have led to this feud not taking place as of yet. - 6/12/01 Stephanie McMahonWith HHH's injury, obviously Stephanie McMahon hasn't really had much of an onscreen role in WWF events. However, Stephanie is still said to be a major force behind the scenes with the WWF. She hasn't missed a single WWF TV taping since HHH's injury, and continues to hold a lot of power in the booking and creative meetings. - 6/12/01 Edge and Christian to break upAnd finally, the WWF has been teasing a split for the Hardy Boyz, and of course Edge & Christian. Before last week’s Raw Is War, most energy was on the Hardy Boyz/Eddie Guerrero angle, most probably culminating in the Hardy Boyz split, in some way shape of form. However, with Guerrero turning up in a shape unfit for television, and since then booking into a drug rehab clinic, the WWF seems to be drifting more effort into the Edge/Christian split. With both men’s arguments centring on the King Of The Ring competition, it is possible that the two men may face each other at the Pay Per View. While it is unlikely that this will be the main event, due to the pushing that current qualifier’s, Rhyno and Kurt Angle seem to be receiving, and with more to come, it is very possible that Edge vs Christian could be a semi-final match, perhaps finally splitting the bond between the two. - 6/12/01 Previous WWF Insider News WWF Insider News for 6/10/01
