– Evan Bourne’s recent push came about after John Cena went to Vince McMahon and basically told him that the company was dropping the ball by not fully getting behind Bourne. Another reason behind Bourne’s push is that with Daniel Bryan and Kaval being brought up to the main roster, WWE wants to condition fans to accept smaller superstars as viable main eventers.

– WWE’s on air talent was told not to mention UFC on last night’s RAW that featured UFC star Rampage Jackson as one of the guest hosts. The Bella Twins did a skit backstage where Jackson was simply referred to as an MMA fighter with no mention of the company he works for.

– As noted earlier, Mark Feuerstein of USA Network’s Royal Pains will be the special guest host of next week’s RAW. SmackDown Superstar the Big Show will be hosting with Feuerstein next week. Show will be appearing on an upcoming episode of Royal Pains and in the upcoming WWE Studios film Knucklehead.
