Talent from all three brands are slated to be backstage at the Monday Night Raw "King of the Ring" special for the USA Network tonight. There was no clear cut idea of who was going to be in the tournament, even among the talent I spoke to, as of yesterday. The WWE website was teasing that JBL, John Cena, Randy Orton, HHH, Shawn Michaels, Batista and Chris Jericho all wanted a tournament win, but that doesn't mean they are in the tournament. Has a WWE champion ever competed for the King of the Ring before? Of course, we'll have some form of skit featuring "Barack Obama vs. Hillary Clinton" as well.
Lilian Garcia will be appearing on 6/25 for Blue Jays affiliate The Syracuse Hens. For more information, Look below:

Garcia has performed the National Anthem at hundreds of WWE, NBA, New York Jets games and other sporting events. She made WWE history by becoming the first female to announce WrestleMania, at Wrestlemania 22. In November 2001, she sang on the WWE float in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.
Garcia's first single "Shout" was released in 2002 and became a hit. Her Spanish language debut album ¡Quiero Vivir! was released in October 2007 and includes 12 tracks and two duets - one featuring Latin recording artist Jon Secada.
