Randy Orton assaulted by fan:

Randy Orton was attacked by a South African fan following a match against Big E. Langston on the WWE tour. He was on the ropes celebrating when the guy crept into the ring and punched him below the belt, causing Orton to collapse to the mat in pain. His opponent Langston and some security pulled the guy out of the ring, but Orton got up and kicked him in the head as he was being dragged away.

As a result of the attack WWE refused to take part in the fan festivities that were planned, leaving many fans upset that they had lost money they had paid to meet the stars, other fans wrote to apologise to Randy and WWE and expressed their hopes that it would not affect the future of WWE shows in the country.

WWE have released a statement about the incident...

"Tonight Randy Orton was violently attacked from behind by a South African fan, who is currently being held in jail pending criminal charges. The extent of Orton's injuries are unknown at this time."

WWE did not apologise for Orton's behaviour after the attack, he threw and kicked his MITB briefcase up the aisle before pausing to flip the bird at the audience shown on the large screen.

Not great quality, but I have found a vid of the incident...

New PPV:

WWE Battleground MAY include the return of WarGames. It is not thought that the arena could hold ore than one ring, so unless they come up with a new style of cage for the bout or cut back on available seats for the show I would take this as rumour for now. It would be cool though, especially with the factions in WWE, The Shield vs The Wyatt's... could be good.

D'Lo Brown talks TNA problems:

"Looking at things at 30,000 feet, I think that they're going through some growing pains right now. They're restructuring and trying to fortify their product. Taking the show on the road was a big financial burden. I think it's part of the natural growing process of the company; (the roster cuts) were like pruning a tree."

He went on to say he would like to return to WWE, but would also leave the door open for a TNA return.
