— WWE RAW is set to become a live broadcast in Australia. TV Tonight reports that the show will begin airing live next week on FOX8. Foxtel executive Brendon Moo said, “We are thrilled to be taking our viewers live ringside to each match as it goes to air in the US. FOX8 audiences have always been supportive of WWE RAW and are big fans of the series. Now those fans will be able to fully engage with the match and be part of all the action in real time.”
— As noted late Wednesday night here on the website, it’s quite possible that “Nature Boy” Ric Flair is back under a WWE deal. Speculation pointing to this comes from the fact that Flair was in talks with an independent wrestling promoter to work some local events, but told them that he would need to get it approved by WWE.
