The Rock talks his injury:

"About mid-way through the match I had torn my rectus tendon as well as my adductor tendon off my pelvis, and then I found out that I had three wonderful hernia tears, which I had repaired about three and a half weeks ago," said Rock. "There's also a lot of fun swelling in the 'cash and prizes' area for the first week and a half. Those were sexy times. … It's a lot of fun pain to go through, but everything is good, thank you."

SA vs UK:

South African WWE star Justin Gabriel says he wants to face British star Wade Barrett on the upcoming South African tour, because South Africans don't like the British... (Well F U very much :P)

He told the show ''Tonight'' in the country...

"My main beef is with Wade Barrett. You know us South Africans, we don't get along well with the British, so we are cashing in on that."

Payback:

The WWE Title match has been changed from an Ambulance match, to a 3 Stages of Hell match, with the Ambulance match being the deciding fall...

* Stage 1 - Lumberjack Match

* Stage 2 - Tables Match

* Stage 3 - Ambulance Match.

The Intercontinental Title match will be Wade Barrett vs The Miz vs Fandango.

The planned US and Tag Team Title matches will likely not happen now, as the rematches from Extreme Rules happened on Raw last night.

Punk's return... Or...:

Paul Heyman accepted a match at Payback for his client CM Punk, who was challenged by Chris Jericho. Now this could be legit, as Payback is in CM Punk's home town, but I sense a story line arc for the Summer feud between Brock and Punk here.

Maybe Punk will take offence to Heyman booking matches for him without his consent, leading to tensions which will culminate in SummerSlam.

Bret Hart night:

After Raw went off the air last night, Jerry Lawler entered the ring and introduced Bret Hart, he was joined by the mayor of Calgary, who said May 27 will from now on be ''Bret Hart Day'' in the city.

Bret said he was ''honored'' and ''He could feel his father, Owen and The British Bulldog''. He went on to thank all the wrestlers he faced during his career, especially Mr. Perfect and The British Bulldog Davey Boy Smith, he said this night meant more than any title, because it was the people of Calgary that were honouring him.

He became emotional when he thanked his family, (His children).

Other stars then came down down to pay tribute, including Chris Jericho, Shawn Michaels, Vince McMahon and others.

There was an awkward moment though, Pat Patterson got down on one knee to declare Bret Hart, Canada's greatest wrestler. Bret responded by saying that he ''Always got nervous when he saw Patterson on his knees''. (Patterson is homosexual), leading to Jerry Lawler trying to deflect the joke and move on as quickly as possible. Patterson took it well though.

Bret's Brother Smith Hart wasn't as impressed, he tweeted...

"Not concerned about my family not being apart of the celebration tonight but I do think they're are a few people who really should've been... Notably Jim Neidhart, Jimmy Hart, Roddy Piper, Mayor Nechi, Edge, Steve Austin and even the Undertaker"

He also took a shot at WWE, for having his niece Natalya lose on what was her 31st Birthday and in front of her home crowd.

"Should be upset that Natalya had to lose on her birthday in her hometown, but Im actually happy she got to work and show how talented she is"
