– WWE will be holding a 30-minute online pre-show (Youtube.com, WWE.com) prior to Sunday’s WWE Hell in a Cell pay-per-view, despite the fact that it wasn’t mentioned on RAW. No matches have been announced for the show, but John Cena will be addressing the situation of AJ Lee being removed as RAW General Manager.
– Linda McMahon has lost a lot of ground in her US Senate campaign against Democrat Chris Murphy.
A University of Connecticut/Hartford Courant poll has Linda behind trailing 44-38% with 17% undecided. A Hamilton Campaigns poll has Murphy up 46-40% with 10% undecided. Rasmussen’s latest poll has Murphy up 48-47%. Rasmussen typically skews Republican and had Chris Murphy previously up by 5%.
A big turning point in the race was the recent series of debates between the two candidates. While Linda McMahon didn’t do so bad, it’s believed that Murphy was the clear winner and stopped Linda’s momentum in its tracks.
