Raw worries:


This weeks Raw scored the lowest viewing figures in 15 years. The last time they scored less than the 2.48 they received this week, was on October 27 1997. (Barring Holiday shows).

They also cut segments from the show to give them more time for the lumberjack match, but they cut too much, and had too much time spare, leading to late re-writes.

John Cena has been given his award for granting 300 wishes for the charity the Make-A-Wish foundation, he said in his acceptance speech, which was presented by the Mother of the second child he met...

“I can think of no greater honor than someone who can have any wish they want in the world, yet they choose to spend their time with me,” said Cena. “I will continue to grant wishes as long as there are children who request me. I am proud to be a part of WWE’s long standing alliance with Make-A-Wish.”

Indy great gets WWE tryout:


Sami Callihan wrestled Johnny Curtis in during last nights TV tapings, he was squashed, delivering only a couple of moves but WWE were impressed, he also did some promo work in the back, which also scored high, however his height and look were a concern.

CM Punk:


Wants to be in the WrestleMania main event before he retires, which he has said will be in 2015.


WWE.Com tease Mania match:


The official website of the WWE have an article up teasing a possible WrestleMania 29 match between The Undertaker and The Rock, stating it would take a epic challenge to get The Undertaker in the ring, and The Rock could be that guy.

He won't be for two reasons, The Rock will be WWE champion by then, and will drop the belt at Mania, Taker will not return for a full Champions run, and he certainly won't lose at Mania.

Also WWE are growing increasingly concerned over The Undertaker's health, he has still not recovered from damage to his hip replacement he picked up at this years WrestleMania, and is in so much pain he can now now longer travel to New York for specialist treatment, WWE are flying the Doctors to his home in Texas. An appearance at the Survivor Series is looking very unlikely now, and some insiders in WWE are stating that maybe this years Mania could turn out to be his last match at the top level, and asked the question that if he couldn't compete at the top, would he have the motivation to return at all?.

The do plan for him to be a guest in this years Royal Rumble, hitting a couple of spots before being eliminated.
