-- The Rock recently hinted that he may get involved physically at WrestleMania 27 this Sunday night. Speaking with MTV News, he said, "I'm going to take my fist and lay it across somebody's lips and take my boot which is a size 14, so it's a big boot and stick it straight up somebody's ass." When asked who he might get phyiscal with he said, "Like with any show, like with any movie, you want to make sure the final five, 10 minutes of the show are worth every penny."

-- World Wrestling Entertainment and the Make-A-Wish Foundation issued the following press release today:

30 Children Ready to Enjoy Star-Studded Wishes with WWE, Make-A-Wish Foundation at WrestleMania XXVII in Atlanta
PHOENIX -- WrestleMania XXVII, WWE's annual pop culture extravaganza, will once again be the centerpiece of a huge wish weekend for the Make-A-Wish Foundation and 30 kids with life-threatening medical conditions.

For the fourth year in the row, WWE and the Make-A-Wish Foundation are granting children's wishes to attend WrestleMania weekend, April 1-3 in Atlanta. WWE has planned a full list of wish activities for the children, who are traveling from 18 U.S. states, Canada and Australia.

In addition to the excitement of attending WrestleMania at the Georgia Dome on April 3, the wish kids will enjoy exclusive opportunities to meet WWE Superstars and Divas, along with other celebrities, at these events:

April 1 a private autograph session with WWE Superstars and Divas
April 2 a pizza party hosted by WWE Superstar and Make-A-Wish Wish Ambassador John Cena at the Georgia Aquarium
April 3 a special lunch party before WrestleMania XXVII at the Opera Atlanta Events Center & Nightclub

The Georgia Aquarium and the Opera Atlanta Events Center & Nightclub are donating event space and resources to make the events possible for the 30 wish kids and their families. Lucks Food Decorating Company is donating pizza for the Saturday event featuring edible Pizza Prints designs of WWE Superstars.

"It's fitting that the WWE and Make-A-Wish Foundation's biggest wish-granting celebration happens each year at WrestleMania," said Sue Aitchison, WWE's Director, Community Relations. "This weekend will be full of surprises and joy for the wish kids and will undoubtedly help the families spend much-needed time together away from hospitals and medical treatments."

At the April 2 event, Make-A-Wish Foundation of America President and Chief Executive Officer David Williams will honor Cena for granting his 200th wish in December 2010. Cena is one of only four celebrities, along with NASCAR drivers Jeff Gordon and Dale Earnhardt Jr. and former WWE Superstar Hulk Hogan, to reach the milestone.
