Guests galore:

Backstage at Raw was teeming with visitors last night. As well as Rock and the cast and crew of his film, Steve Austin, X-Pac, Victoria and Lilian Garcia were joined by a number of celebrities including Mario Lopez and his young son. Also John Morrison and JTG were in attendance as paying fans.

Hall Of Fame:

WWE calling:

The Rock did appear in front of the crowd last night, both before and after the show. After the show he came out to get the crowd hyped up for the taping of a match for his Paige family movie. This led to an awesome spot in the ring. Fans had been chanting for CM Punk, and Rock, wanting to keep them onside for the filming, telephoned CM in the middle of the ring. Unfortunately Punk did not answer, he was walking his dog, so Rock left a voicemail of the crowd chanting his name. Punk later acknowledged the spot with a thank you tweet to the fans. Needless to say WWE were not happy with what was going on, and word from HHH personally was sent out to wrap it up. Rock snapped at the guy passing on the message, telling him not to kill his mic.

There was a video of it, but WWE have had it taken down.

Paige movie:

Thea Trinidad is playing AJ Lee in the Paige movie. It was confirmed last night when she entered the arena to the Alum's music.

Bayley botchmania:

Bayley was a one woman blooper reel last night. She admitted her botches on Twitter...

''Inflatable tube man smacked me in the face, tripped down the ramp giving out a hug, fell getting out of the ring...but still your champ.''

WWE edit Raw:

WWE cut a Big E line from Raw. He asked Lana how she was able to hack him. This was in reference to a political storm in the States over Russians allegedly hacking politicians.
