-- TNA's Hulk Hogan made a splash during yesterday's taping of the "Roast of David Hasselhoff" in Los Angeles. Hogan was one of the celebrity roasters for Hasselhoff, the noted entertainment celebrity and recent WWE Raw guest host.

According to reports from the taping, Hogan appeared on stage with Hasselhoff and ripped off a t-shirt to reveal a second t-shirt that read, "Suck it Hoff."

The roast is scheduled to air on Comedy Central on Sunday, August 15 at 10:00 p.m. EST up against WWE Summerslam. Photos of Hogan on-stage with Hasselhoff are available on HonkyTonkMan.net.

-- "Stone Cold" Steve Austin was profiled by the New York Post as part of a feature on the upcoming "Expendables" movie. The story focused on the "tough guy" cast of all-star action stars in the movie.

Austin was asked when was the last time he got into a real fight and he replied with a general story on when real punches start flying in wrestling.

"I damn near got into a couple fights in the ring. When a guy snubs you a bit too hard, we call that a 'potato.' Depending on how good-natured you are, that dictates how many potatoes you want to take. When you've had enough, you send back what's called a 'receipt.' Then it goes accordingly. Usually when you get a potato and send back a receipt, things settle down pretty fast."

FYI: "Expendables" will be released in theaters on Friday, August 13. The movie stars Austin, UFC Hall of Famer Randy Couture, "The Wrestler" star Mickey Rourke, Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, Dolph Lundgren, Jet Li, Jason Statham, and Terry Crews.
