WRESTLEMANIA 28 UPDATE, IT TAKES MORE THAN A DAY TO GET TO SOUTH AFRICA, CHRIS JERICHO'S LEAST FAVORITE ANGLE AND MORE

Kane did an interview with Sport24 to promote the Smackdown tour of South Africa, which starts tomorrow night in Cape Town.  From the "what a glamorous life WWE Superstars live" department when he was asked about what it was like to fly with the other wrestlers he said, "Most of the time we are on regular commercial airlines, so it’s really not much different compared to a normal flight."  So that means if they are in coach, it's even more uncomfortable for them than the rest of us since they are such big people.  You can read the whole thing by clicking here.

Speaking of the glamour of being a WWE star, Christian posted the following on his Twitter page: "Landed in Johannesburg SA travel time 2 this point 27hrs with another 2hr flight 2 Cape Town..Just did the sniff underarm test..Still fresh".  29 hours?  SHEESH, these guys deserve every penny that they make.

Sport24 also did an audio interview with South Africa's own Justin Gabriel, which you can listen to by clicking here.  Kane and Christian were also interviewed by The Daily Voice. You can read it by clicking here.  We are looking for reports from the shows if you are going.

Someone mentioned that they were watching old episodes of Raw to Chris Jericho on his Twitter page.  They brought up the bit where he shared the Intercontinental Title with Chyna, which he called the "worst angle ever".  I don't know about that but it really did suck.

Mitchell Ayre reporting. ... This week on Australian Pay TV in the top 100 shows at #58 was WWE Raw 27,000 with viewers.

WWE sent out word today that WrestleMania XXVIII Travel Packages will not be going on sale July 11.  They will announce the on-sale date soon.
