Cole wrote in his blog on Layfield’s website that he wants to drop down 40 pounds by mid August to be in better shape for his first climb. It will be interesting to see how it works out with his WWE schedule.

Mount Whitney is the highest summit in the contiguous United States with an elevation of 14,505 feet and lis located in the Sierra Nevada range in California.

JBL is trying to climb the world’s highest peaks on every continent in an effort to raise money for kids in Bermuda through the Family Centre. WWE is sponsoring his climbs.

Cole and a WWE cameraman entered the studios and were kept waiting as person after person asked what they wanted. Cameras kept rolling as everyone made excuse after excuse and then security told Cole that he cannot stay in there and has to leave.

Cole kept pushing and then the owner of the studios came down and told them that they are on private property and asked them to leave his premises immediately. The owner said that Beck was not in the studio even though a person earlier said that he was currently there filming.

The footage of Cole’s unsuccessful attempt to interview Beck can be seen below.

“#wweuniverse you will never believe this! I just got off the phone with #jerrylawler and he is alert and in great spirits,” tweeted Cole. He added that Lawler sent his love and thanks to everyone for their support during this difficult time.

“He says the strap will be coming down soon,” Cole said, referring to the times when Lawler takes down his strap when making a comeback in wrestling.

Lawler has been calling his friends and co-workers and is getting better every day despite a long road ahead for him for complete recovery.
