Today's News

AJ Lee:


AJ Lee lost a tooth in a recent match.

Daniel Wyatt:


Vince McMahon is the reason Daniel Bryan has joined the Wyatt Family, there is no clear story path mapped out for this angle, but what Vince wants...

The King Jerry Lawler:


Jerry Lawler suffered a health scare at Raw last night. He had been feeling ill since lunch, but rather than talk to medics, went and ''Hid'' in his dressing room, not wanting to worry anyone. His son Brian, who was one of the guest legends at the show raised the alarm after going to his room to see him, and found he was suffering chest pains and had been vomiting. WWE medics had to coax him into going to the Hospital where he had a series of checks done. He was released but did not do commentary, he did appear during Raw in a backstage interview, saying he had an upset stomach, but was now feeling fine.

Raw:


Some notes from last night's oldschool Raw...

* Alberto Del Rio was the second name confirmed for the Royal Rumble match, he joins Batista.

* Michael Cole botched a call, and offended former IC champ Curtis Axel, he mis-quoted a tweet Axel had made about his Dad, Mr. Perfect. Axel said it was funny that the backstage area was full of so called legends that his dad used to beat up for fun, Cole said, Axel tweeted that the back was full of legends that used to beat his Dad up for fun.

* Michael Cole is also taking some stick for using Jerry Lawler's health scare to promote the WWE App, but that would have been a call made higher up than him, so that is not very fair IMO.

* Jake The Snake made a surprise appearance late in the show, which may mean his Royal Rumble hopes are over and done with.

* Mark Henry has been written out of the stories with a dislocated and fractured elbow.

* Brock Lesnar vs Big Show's story started, likely leading to a Royal Rumble match.

* Road Dogg was also ill during the show.

* There were a couple of injuries (More to follow).

* Jake The Snake posed for a picture with Mark Henry backstage despite their recent Twitter feud.
