This layout is just amazing. It, for some reason, just really captures the WWE right now. I'm interested to see how you go about the Cena/Rock rivalry with Miz in there. I'll leave better replies starting next show. You've got a reader.

WWE.com, 6/3/2011 - HALL OF FAME ANNOUNCEMENT
WWE.com is proud to announce the newest inductee into the WWE Hall of Fame - Tim "Mr. Wrestling" Woods.
George Burrell "Tim" Woodin was born on July 28, 1934. He began his wrestling career at the age of 29. He was given the name "Mr. Wrestling" and subsequently adopted his most famous persona, complete with white mask and white singlet. Woodin was a major star in all of Georgia, Florida, Texas and the Mid-Atlantic territories. In October 1975, Woodin was involved in a plane crash that involved several other top names in the world of professional wrestling, including Johnny Valentine, David Crockett and "Nature Boy" Ric Flair. Woodin, a fan favourite at the time, was among a group of wrestling's greatest villains and in order to disassociate himself with them to protect the wrestling industry he was willing to risk his health by competing just two weeks after the crash. Wooding was hailed as "more than Mr. Wrestling", he was "the man who saved wrestling". Woodin enjoyed a comfortable retirement following his final match in 1983, until his death in 2002.
Click here for more information about Tim "Mr. Wrestling" Woods.
The 2011 WWE Hall of Fame Induction ceremony will take place on April 2 at the Philips Arena in Atlanta, GA. The event will be available on WWE.com, with the inductions of Shawn Michaels and "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan airing on the USA Network LIVE!

SmackDown, good opening segment, and I can guess what the second punishment will be, and therefore, hope Christian is successful. Obvious victory for Kofi Kingston here, but good to see Curt Hawkins used. Drew McIntyre just seems to be used as an attacking machine in many WWE diaries, including my own, haha. Lay-Cool over Eve and Gail Kim is good, I wonder what you'll do with the Divas at WrestleMania. Edge beating Wade Barrett is for the best, and the Big Show save was necessary. His partner is blatantly obvious, but I cannot wait to see how you execute this. A very serious segment between Cody Rhodes and Rey Mysterio. I feel this feud is highly underrated, so I am glad you're making it serious. A victory for Jack Swagger is good, and makes sense with the Sheamus interference, with Daniel Bryan and Sheamus likely facing off at 'Mania. As I hoped, Christian wins and is entered into the World Heavyweight Championship match at WrestleMania. I do hope you don't continue the two-on-one approach though, and we see some sort of competition between Edge and Christian. Overall, a great show.

Nice write-up for the Mr. Wrestling announcement. Smackdown was a nice show. The Mania card seems good right now. Good luck.

Smackdown March 4, 2011: Nice to have Del Rio open the show. Cant wait for the Main Event. Del Rio vs Christian will be good. Kingston beating Hawkins to qualify is realistic. McIntyre attacking Kingston was uncalled for. Wow! Eve losing was unexpected as she is the Champion. I cant wait for Sin Cara. You will probably push him well. Edge over Wade was the right call. The Corre attacking Edge was obviously set to set up The Corre vs Show match at WrestleMania. The Mysterio / Rhodes segment was good. Surprised there was blood involved. I wonder who Lay-Cool will face at Mania. Swagger over Bryan was unexpected, but it was a nice build-up to Bryan vs Sheamus. Cant wait for Wade vs ? match. I thnk I know who Show's partner is. Christian being put in the Mania Main Event is nice but I do not expect him to win the title. Nice job on Smackdown. It was entertaining.

A good opening promo and I am assuming that if Christian wins he is thrown into the World Championship match - which I hope happens. Solid opener with Kofi defeating Hawkins - definitely the better person to be in the Money In The Bank. Love that you are keeping Drew a beast and having him attack Kofi shows it. Obvious victory for Lay-cool with Gail just there to get beaten. Really dig the Fabulous Freebirds being inducted into the HOF. Great first hour main event and the better call to have the World Champion strongly defeat the leader of The Corre. Liked the post-match altercation with Show, and I'm intrigued by his partner announcement - even though it seems rather obvious - especially with the graphic shape. Great, great promo with Cody and Rey and the aggressiveness with Rhodes' rage really makes his character powerful. You pulled that off well. Swagger getting the win is fair enough - and with the King Sheamus involvement, it's quite clear it will be Sheamus/Bryan at Mania as well. Obvious victory in the main event for Christian and once again obvious, but still great, addition into the World Title match. Looking forward to it. A good show.

I was almost certain I had replied to Smackdown, just checked and I guess I didn't click post reply! Sorry man!
The opening promo was pretty good, Del Rio sounded like a serious badass. Nice stipulation by Teddy Long too, creative. Kofi getting into the MITB is expected by awesome, he's always good in those. Him getting attacked by McIntyre is pretty cool, Drew came out of that looking like a mad man. Nice little way to tell the crowd that Show's partner will be here next week, if it's not Kane then I don't know where you could go. Diesel? The retirement ceremony was great, really clever having him retire from modeling. Good attack afterwards, this feud is gonna be really good if you continue with stuff like that. Swagger in the MITB is good, I hope you have him win, tbh. Unless you wow me with some other entries. Epic way to win the show, glad Christian is in there. Keep this up, this is very good.

Good opening promo to help get Del Rio even more heat. Kofi advancing into Money in the Bank was obvious but a good choice. Not sure on another McIntyre/Kingston feud. I may be wrong about them feuding before though. LayCool winning is always a good thing. Edge/Barrett is a pretty big first hour main event, Edge had to win though. Absolutely loved Rhodes' promo. It came off perfectly and I'd LOVE if he went over Rey at WrestleMania. Swagger/Bryan would be a fantastic match and with Swagger winning, I see a US Title match at 'Mania. There's no way you leave the US Champ off the card. Christian winning and being added to the World Title match is excellent. Love Chrstian pushes!
Great Smackdown as always, and those 'Mania graphics are tremendous.

I really like the new roster layout, Chaz. Going to be a bit of a challenge when you put the belts on someone who hasn't won them before in real though though. Rosa being released is no big deal. She's fun to look at but that's about it in all honesty.
Daniel Bryan not qualifying for Money in the Bank is a shame but I still expect him to be on the card defending the United States Championship. Money in the Bank is looking alright, but it'd be nice to see some new people who haven't been in the match before.

- WWE.com, 7/3/2011 - RAW Preview
Tonight, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson returns to RAW to oversee the contract signing for the WrestleMania match between Michael Cole and Jerry "The King" Lawler. Who better to oversee this confrontation than the WrestleMania host himself? Can we expect any twists or turns in this rivalry?
Speaking of The Rock, a picture posted on his Facebook account (facebook.com/DwayneJohnson) will be sure to stir a reaction from John Cena. How will Cena respond to the People's Champion?
Also, the RAW General Manager has informed us that more qualifying matches for Money in the Bank will take place. With more developments expected for that match, can we expect more rivalries to culminate on the Grandest Stage of Them All?

Man, this diary is giving me the simming bug again after about 2 or 3 years of being totally indifferent about it. The presentation and the lead up to WrestleMania is just pure gold at the moment.

RAW kicks off with a huge pyro-technics display as the camera pans around the American Airlines Arena. Jerry Lawler and Josh Mathews welcome us to tonight's edition of RAW. The contract signing for Jerry Lawler vs. Michael Cole is hyped, overseen by The Rock! Also tonight, Triple H will address The Undertaker, and we can expect many developments on the latest stop on the Road to WrestleMania!
We go to the ring where RAW ring announcer Justin Roberts speaks..
"Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to introduce the fourth and final trainer for the 2011 season of WWE Tough Enough.."
"Return of the Hitman" blasts out over the P.A system and the crowd rises to their feet as Bret "Hitman" Hart steps out onto the stage. Hart heads to the ring and takes a mic. He takes in the reception that the crowd is giving him. Hart says it's great to be in Dallas, and for the first time ever in the American Airlines Arena. The Hitman talks Tough Enough and how he's excited at the prospect of training the WWE's next Superstars. Hart mentions his family and his background, where he gained his knowledge of sports entertainment, and how he hopes to pass this on to the Tough Enough hopefuls. He is ungraciously interupted by the Celtic Warrior, King Sheamus, who heads to the ring to confront the Hitman. Sheamus demands to know why Hart is even here, what purpose he serves, why he is taking up the time that should be dedicated to the King of the WWE Universe. Sheamus tells Hart that he was relevant in 1995 but he isn't now, and unless he wants his head kicked off his shoulders, he should leave RIGHT NOW. Hart smirks at Sheamus, before cracking him the face with a right hand! Hart sends Sheamus back into the ropes, forcing the King of the Ring to cover his face to block the attack. He shoves Hart away and kicks him in the knee. Hart collapses to the mat as Sheamus looms over him with a twisted smile on his face. The crowd roars as Daniel Bryan appears out of nowhere, perched on the top rope. Sheamus turns and is met with a devastating kick Diving Dropkick to the face. He retreats as Bryan sees to the Hitman. Just then, we hear the sound of the General Manager's laptop recieving a message. Josh Mathews reads it out to the crowd. The General Manager states that he is booking a match that will take place immediately. Sheamus has until the commercial break is over to go and find a partner, or he'll be facing Daniel Bryan and Bret Hart by himself! Sheamus looks angered as we head to the break.
United States Champion Daniel Bryan and WWE Hall of Famer Bret "Hitman" Hart defeat King Sheamus and Drew McIntyre when McIntyre tapped out to the LeBell Lock and Sheamus to the Sharpshooter.
Backstage, LayCool are seen upsetting some of the WWE Diva's as the walk along the corridor. They give them disgusting looks as we head back to ringside.
A graphic hypes the Money in the Bank Ladder Match taking place at WrestleMania, and all the participants so far.
R-Truth defeats William Regal with the Lie Detector to qualify for the Money in the Bank Ladder Match.
We see a Hall of Fame Class of 2011 induction announcement.. click here to see the inductee!
WWE Did You Know - WWE's Facebook network grew by 595% during 2010!
Randy Orton defeats Michael McGillicutty following the RKO.
During Orton's celebration, CM Punk attacks him from behind with a steel chair. Orton's head is cut in the process. Punk has a manic look on his face as he hovers over the Viper. He says "I accept, Randall" over and over. Medics hit the ring as Punk leaves.
A graphic hypes the contract signing between Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler tonight, which will be overseen by the Host of WrestleMania, The Rock!
Backstage, John Morrison and Christian are talking in the corridor. Morrison congratulates Christian on making it to the WrestleMania main event, saying it's "long overdue". Christian thanks him and tells him it'll be his time soon. They're interupted when the World Heavyweight Champion Edge appears. Morrison makes himself scarce. Edge stares at Christian before shaking his hand. Edge tells him that he respects Christian more than anyone, but he will not cut him any slack at WrestleMania. He will step over him to keep hold of the gold. Christian says he's expecting nothing less than Edge's best.
We see a recap of the events that took place on Smackdown last week involving "Dashing" Cody Rhodes and Rey Mysterio during Rhodes' "retirement" speech.
Cody Rhodes makes his way out to a chorus of boos from the Dallas crowd. Rhodes attempts to cover his face with a black towel. In the ring, he takes a mic and asks that the lights be dimmed in order for him to "protect his dignity". He yells insanely when they are not dimmed enough. Eventually, he is satisfied and begins to speak. Rhodes says that due to his attack on Rey Mysterio this past week on Smackdown, he has been suspended from Smackdown for 2 weeks. That punishment is nothing compared to the punishment that he has to live with for the rest of his life, the punishment Rey Mysterio undeservedly inflicted upon him. Rhodes reiterates his desire to make Mysterio's life a living nightmare, to permanently ensure that Mysterio hides behind his mask. Rhodes says that he will be fit to compete at WrestleMania, enough to face Rey Mysterio and annihilate him. Rhodes says he will return in 2 weeks on Smackdown to recieve his reply from Mysterio. Rhodes warns Rey not to underestimate him, not to pity him or think that he's already won this battle with the damage he did to Rhodes' "perfect" face. After WrestleMania, the world will pity Rey Mysterio.
Eve Torres and Gail Kim defeat The Bella Twins when Eve nailed a Moonsault on Brie.
LayCool come out after the match and begin taunting Eve and Gail, claiming to be better than them. The familiar sound of the General Manager's laptop is heard and Lawler reads the message. The GM says he has been in discussion with the General Manager of Smackdown, Teddy Long, and both have come to an agreement that it's time that LayCool "proved" they're as good as they say they are. That's why, at WrestleMania, LayCool will meet the entire Divas roster in a Gauntlet Match! LayCool are shocked at the revelation and begin screaming to get it reversed. Gail and Eve smile at each other before jumping out of the ring and chasing LayCool away.
A graphic hypes our main event - John Cena will go one-on-one with Alex Riley.
Backstage, Ted DiBiase is seen with Maryse. DiBiase tells her that he needs some recognition, some respect for the great Superstar that he is. Maryse tells him to stop complaining and do something about it.
A video airs for Sin Cara, the WWE's newest Superstar.
We return and Ted DiBiase is in the ring with Maryse. The son of the Million Dollar Man is being booed heavily. He tells everyone that they're jealous of his wealth and his lifestyle. He understands that, but now they need to shut up and listen. DiBiase demands respect and says he should be given a chance to qualify for the Money in the Bank Ladder Match. Sure enough, the General Manager sends a message to the laptop and Lawler reads it. DiBiase has his qualifying match.. he'll face The Great Khali!
Ted DiBiase (with Maryse) defeats The Great Khali (with Ranjin Singh) via count-out to qualify for the Money in the Bank Ladder Match. DiBiase picked up the win when Maryse held onto the leg of Khali, distracting him long enough to cost him the match.
Afterwards, Khali gained a measure of revenge when he planted an unwanted kiss on Maryse's lips!
A video package airs hyping WrestleMania 27 live from Atlanta, GA on April 3. The video features the official theme song for the event, "Written in the Stars" by Tinie Tempah. 27 days remain!
A video recaps the altercation between The Undertaker and returning Triple H last week on RAW.
We hear the legendary theme music of Triple H. The man himself made his return at the conclusion of RAW last week to confront The Undertaker, and "issued" a challenge to him for a match at WrestleMania. The Game speaks in the ring, telling the world why he chose to return last week. He says he has unsettled business with many of RAW's Superstars, but WrestleMania changes everything. Triple H confirms that he has spoke with Mr. McMahon who has personally signed the match for April 3 - the King of Kings, the Cerebral Assassin, the Game, Triple H one-on-one with the Deadman, the Demon of Death Valley, the Last Outlaw, the Phenom, The Undertaker. The crowd pops big for this. Triple H says that he has had his eye on The Undertaker for a while now, he's wanted to step into the ring with him. Seeing him retire Shawn Michaels last year at WrestleMania finally tipped him over the edge. He says that WrestleMania 27 will be the biggest night of his career, because he will end the legendary Streak. Nobody has come as close as Shawn did last year and the year before, and nobody knows Shawn better than Triple H does. He says he knows Shawn's tricks and he has his own. This will be the year that The Undertaker DIES. His music hits as the Game leaves the ring, his message sent.
A graphic hypes the contract signing between Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler tonight, which will be overseen by the Host of WrestleMania, The Rock!
A graphic hypes the WrestleMania main event, where John Cena will challenge WWE Champion The Miz.
A graphic is shown of the picture posted by The Rock on his Facebook page over the weekend.
John Cena defeats Alex Riley (with WWE Champion The Miz) via submission with the STF. Miz tried to interfere but Cena spotted him on the apron. He tried to grab him but Miz got away. Riley attempted the sneak-attack from behind but Cena wasn't having any of it and expertly put Riley down and out. Miz watched from the stage as Cena forced Riley to tap out.
Following the match, Cena takes a microphone and tells The Miz that if he wants him so badly, come and get in the ring with him. He doesn't accept Cena's offer. Cena says the same goes for The Rock. I mean, he can stomp on his identity via the internet, but come out to the ring and TRY to do it. Michael Cole interupts Cena, waving a piece of paper in the air. Cole informs Cena that he won't get his wish tonight. He states that the document in his hands is from the General Manager, and is an order for Cena to leave the premises IMMEDIATELY. The crowd boos this revelation. Cole tells Cena that this is HIS moment, and it won't be ruined by Cena and The Rock trying to score points over each other with their ridiculous rants and pathetic jokes. If Cena chooses not to leave right now, he will forfeit his title shot against The Miz at WrestleMania. Security emerges from backstage to escort Cena backstage. He leaves quietly, passing The Miz and Michael Cole on the stage. He stops, stares at Miz, and tells him that his time will come. With Cena now gone, Cole says he has invited Miz to be his guest tonight, as he is not a "trained athlete" and cannot be sure Jerry Lawler won't attack him. The contract signing is next!
A commercial airs for "The Chaperone", starring WWE Superstar Triple H. Available on Blu-Ray and DVD tomorrow!
Michael Cole and WWE Champion The Miz are waiting at a table set up in the ring. Cole invites Lawler to the ring to participate, which he does. Lawler has a mic and warns Cole not to let his mouth get the better of him. The crowd are chanting "Rocky" the entire time Cole spoke. The Miz begins to speak, telling Lawler that there is no way he will beat Cole at WrestleMania because he will be one of the many Superstars that Cole has contracted to help train him for the match. Miz also brings up The Rock, telling him that he is getting too involved with him and John Cena and their match at WrestleMania. Miz warns Rock that if he carries on, he'll get the same beating that Cena's coming to him, only it'll come a lot sooner than April 3. Cole insists on introducing The Rock, being the "broadcase journalist" that he is. Following the introduction by Cole there is a brief pause. The arena explodes as The Rock's theme hits the P.A system and the Great One himself walks out onto the stage. He heads towards the ring, taking position on the second rope where he oversees the crowd here in Dallas tonight. He enters the ring and takes a mic from one of the ring crew. Finally, The Rock has come back to Dallas! The Rock says that he was chosen to oversee this contract signing because he is the WrestleMania Host. He says he was chosen to be WrestleMania Host because he is the most electrifying man in all of entertainment. He says he became the most electrifying man in all of entertainment because he was a SEVEN time WWE Champion, the belt The Miz now holds. Rock tells Miz to know his role, and shut his mouth. When he has the same quality of matches The Rock had in his career, when he holds the WWE Title seven times, then he may open his mouth so The Rock can slap the taste out of it and bring him back to reality, that reality being that The Rock will always be better than The Miz. Cole yells at Rock to shut up. Cole says that this is supposed to be about how he is going to destroy Lawler at WrestleMania. This is all about Lawler signing his own demise. Cole tells The Rock that he is "not even on the same level" as The Miz, the greatest and most must-see WWE Champion of all time. He's more must-see than any of The Rock's train-wreck movies. Cole signs his part of the contract, and goes on to state that the General Manager has included several clauses into the contract, including.. The Rock sticks his hand in Cole's face and stops him, only for Miz to swipe it away. The Awesome One says The Rock is nothing more than one annoying catchphrase over empty promises over another annoying catchphrase. His movies are a joke. His WWE career was a joke. And now, he has the audacity to come out and slander the greatest WWE Champion in history? Miz tells Rock to stay out of his business or he'll put him a hospital bed for a very long time. Rock replies simply with "just bring it". Miz laughs and turns to walk away, then tries to stick a right hand to The Rock. He blocks it and sends Miz over the top rope with a barrage of punches. Lawler grabs Cole by the collar, but Cole reminds him in a panic that if he lays one hand on him he'll be fired. Lawler lets go and Cole mocks him and calls him a fraud and a loser, and at WrestleMania he'll be a loser too. Cole turns right into The Rock, who towers over him. Cole tries to reason with him, but he ends up going through the table in the middle of the ring courtesy of a Rock Bottom! A very happy Lawler signs the contract and raises The Rock's arm as they stand over Michael Cole, concluding this week's edition of Monday Night RAW!

Having Bret Hart as another trainer for tough enough is awesome, man. Really good little segment to start off the show, action packed way to get people hooked. Hart and Bryan getting the win is definetly the right move. Truth in MITB is nice, a filler but a good one. Orton getting attacked is good, although didn't WWE ban chairshots to the head? Good promo from Rhodes, nice how he appeared on RAW to get his message across because he was suspended. Laycool facing the divas in a gauntlet match is something I can see happening, hopefully I go over. Really happy to see Dibiase in the MITB, hopefully that gets him a push that he deserves. Him getting a victory by countout is no problem, it's Khali. Good straight forward promo by HHH. Hmm, odd decision to kick Cena out of the building by the GM, very interesting. I really liked the ending, man. Good to see some interaction between Rock and Miz, which was good. Cole getting Rock Bottomed through the table made me happy, overall a very solid show from you Chaz.

WWE RAW: Monday 7th March 2011...HOT opening promo to kick off the show, and I am loving the way you returned Bret Hart, to some fanfare, but the fact that he originally had little to do with WrestleMania XXVII rather Tough Enough. Like him as the final trainer of Tough Enough. Liked how he fitted in with the Daniel Bryan and Sheamus scenario, it really gives some momentum to that feud. That's why I'm not looking forward to their match at 'Mania in real life; they've got little build, they're on about the same level of importance as the mixed six-person tag match with Snooki and Trish Stratus vs Laycool. Hot opening contest with Daniel Bryan and Bret Hart in the fantasy pairing beating Sheamus and Drew McIntyre. I'm begging for you to drop the 'King Sheamus' gimmick. Simultaneous finish was a nice touch. So impressed with that start. R-Truth beating William Regal; either way R-Truth isn't winning Money in the Bank to be honest. I swear that Bob Backlund was already in the Hall of Fame. Ah well, good induction. Randy Orton beating Michael McGillicutty was obvious, you still really need to make CM Punk and Orton appeal to me, as it's just the generic 'loner face vs heel faction' storyline. You could do anything with this feud. Cody Rhodes' promo on RAW...would have preferred saving it for SmackDown but it makes him look more important. I hope Cody beats Rey Mysterio at WrestleMania, but it would make more sense if Rey won. Eve and Gail Kim over the Bella Twins was alright, nothing too much. Liked Laycool's attack though. Ted Dibiase beating Great Khali because of Maryse? Weird finish. Again, Dibiase's not winning the Money in the Bank match. Triple H's promo with The Undertaker was intense, glad you had no physicality involved here. John Cena beating Alex Riley was a fine main event. But I did admire the main event promo with Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler's contract signing. The Miz and Cena's involvement made the promo better though. Not sure about Rock getting involved physically, but it's okay. A solid show overall, you are doing quite a good job on the build for 'Mania so far.

Wow, incredible start to the show. I love how Sheamus looked against Hart - you know I'm a sucker for building up young stars. Really neat finish to the match too.
Another thing I'm loving about this diary is how you're handling Cody Rhodes. It's my favorite current storyline in real life, and you're doing it more than justice in this diary. Cody is without doubt a star of the future and I'm glad you're treating him that way.
INSANE finish to the show. Reminiscent of something you'll see on the RAW before WrestleMania. I'm intrigued to see how you're going to top the epicness of that last segment in the coming weeks before 'Mania.
Love it!

Raw, Bret Hart returning as the final Tough Enough Trainer is great, and followed up by a match, that's pretty big. Glad to see that he and Daniel Bryan won, but Sheamus is definitely leaving WrestleMania with the United States Championship. Obvious victory for R-Truth here, but he won't win the Ladder match. Good victory for Randy Orton, and a good aftermath with CM Punk accepting the challenge. Not sure as to why Cody Rhodes was used live on Raw, would have understood backstage, but not in the ring. Would be better saved for SmackDown, but it added another element to the feud and made it seem bigger in a sense. A Divas Gauntlet sounds good, and I see Lay-Cool going all the way if I'm honest. An obvious victory for DiBiase because The Great Khali was never going to get into the Money in the Bank Ladder Match. Another good promo from Triple H, hope to see you change things up in the weeks to come. John Cena over Alex Riley was for the best, and Michael Cole having Cena removed from ringside was good. Loved the closing segment, although as many have said, The Rock actually getting physically involved of his own accord, kind of takes away some of the excitement, but it made sense. Overall, a good Raw episode with few odd things.

It's been said WWE officials are reluctant to use both The Undertaker and Triple H on Smackdown. This is because they feel they feud is too big and too important to WrestleMania to be featured on anything other than live TV and the "A-show".
Dolph Ziggler's impending return to the WWE roster (he is listed as a RAW Superstar) has been delayed due to a minor wrist injury.
Currently, WWE officials are discussing which brand Sin Cara will debut on. Smackdown has a large hispanic audience, and so would be the obvious choice. However, it's been noted that he is too big of a star in Mexico to not be featured on RAW.
As of this moment, The Rock is not signed on for any appearances after WrestleMania. Many people backstage felt this was the case all along, despite Rock's claims he'd be sticking around. Circumstances may change.
There is a rumour that Bret Hart may be involved at WrestleMania. Logic would indicate that he would be involved in the yet to be announced Daniel Bryan vs. Sheamus encounter.
WWE has reported interest in former TNA and WCW star Daffney.
"WWE Fatal Four Way", the company's July pay-per-view, has been renamed "WWE Final Four".
The annual WWE Draft will take place on the April 11 edition of RAW, live in Bridgeport, CT. There will be no Supplemental Draft.
Last night's edition of RAW rating was deemed a success. The show scored a 3.8 cable rating with an overall audience of 5.84 million viewers.
The official poster for "WWE Extreme Rules" was released to media outlets over the weekend, and can be viewed here.
Daniel Bryan noted in an interview with In Your Head radio on Friday that WWE has been busy organising the creation of new belt designs for both the WWE Intercontinental and United States Championships.
