— Former UFC star & current UFC announcer Brian Stann was backstage at
this past Monday’s WWE RAW TV taping in Washington, DC. Stann is part of the
Hire Heroes USA company that WWE sponsors
— As noted earlier here on the website, WWE NXT stars Sami Zayn and Adrian
Neville gave a farewell speech to NXT referee Darrick Moore
following the NXT live event on June 20th. Moore is
scheduled to move to the main roster to replace the recently released Marc
Harris. It appears that another NXT referee is being called up to the main
roster as Zayn and Neville gave yet another farewell address to referee
Dan Engler following Thursday night’s WWE NXT live event in Starke, FL. Some of
you may remember Engler as he used to work in TNA as
Rudy Charles.
— As noted earlier here on the website, Vince McMahon is said to be down on Bo Dallas, Adam Rose and
Divas Champion Paige. He’s known for having a hard time accepting new talent as
top stars.
Adam Rose being left off RAW the last few
weeks was said to be a sign that they are cooling down on him. It doesn’t help
that Executive Vice President of Television Production Kevin Dunn has buried
Rose backstage and he is said to have a lot of pull.
Another sign is the fact that even though
Paige has the Divas title, she hasn’t have a lot of character development.
Instead, they’ve been building up Alicia Fox, who Dunn is a huge fan
of.
Bo Dallas is still getting pushed on
almost every show, so Vince’s opinion hasn’t really hurt him
yet.
