    Toronto fans: Your favorite superstars want to say 'thanks'

    Several World Wrestling Federation Superstars are participating in a "thank you" rally for the fans in Toronto this Monday afternoon.
    Vince McMahon, The Rock, Undertaker, Kane, Kurt Angle, Chris Jericho, Chris Benoit, Edge, Trish Stratus, the Hardy Boyz, Lita and Jim Ross will be at Nathan Phillips Square -- located at the southern foot of Toronto City Hall -- for the event, which begins at noon.

    The rally is free and open to the public. The superstars are in Toronto for RAW IS WAR (Sept. 3) and SmackDown! (Sept. 4) at the Air Canada Centre, and and this is their way of thanking Toronto fans for their support.

    With all of the speculation about the World Wrestling Federation teaming up with Toronto for a big event, one has to wonder what this rally is really all about.

    What did you think of the inaugural episode of WWF Excess?

    Send us your thoughts and find out what Trish had to say about the very first LIVE broadcast of Excess

    This past Saturday WWF Excess came to you for the very first time LIVE from the Federation's television studio in Stamford, Conn. Hosted by sexy Federation diva Trish Stratus and the Coach, WWF Excess is a two-hour interactive show that will allow Federation fans to e-mail or call in with questions for weekly special guests.

    What did you think about the new show? We caught up with Trish who says she is thrilled to be part of a show that allows for so much fan interaction. "The show is a work in progress. It is a new format and will continue to evolve and change based on fan feedback and response. Personally, I'm excited to be a part of new WWF programming. The launch of this show comes at a time where I need to focus on the rehab of my ankle which would have kept me off of WWF programming entirely for at least the next month, so this time will allow me to focus on this show and the new role I'm assuming as co-host. You have to remember this is new territory I'm exploring teaming up with the Coach. I'm used to going on a show as a guest now I'm on the other side of the desk - it's a different role entirely. I'm learning and each week I hope to improve and feel more comfortable in this new role. I've been getting a lot of feedback from the fans and I'll use that as a guide of my performance. I hope to hear more from the fans in fat, I'll be checking out my comment board section as my primary source of feedback, so send me your thoughts and check out some other thoughts as I will be posting that section with updates over the next few days".
