– Once a promising talent in WWE’s midcard scene, Alex Riley’s role in the company has been greatly curtailed since last year. According to PWInsider.com, the Raw Superstar is in the doghouse stemming from a hostile backstage encounter with John Cena.
Cena was reportedly poking fun at Riley in front of their wrestler peers, and in response, the Raw talent angrily reacted to Cena’s “rib”—a violation of the unspoken rules of the WWE locker room. Though Riley’s exact actions are not known at this time, his unfavorable reaction to WWE’s premiere star was not considered a good move.
“A-RY” was asked to weigh in on the matter via Twitter and responded “I’d rather not comment about this… At this time.”
– Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson congratulated WWE via Twitter on their milestone 1,000th episode of Raw: “Congratulations @WWE for an historic & monumental night of television: 1000th episode of RAW. Honored to perform on it.”
– William Regal stated on Twitter that he will be on hand for tonight’s WWE NXT taping at Full Sail University.
