Jamie Noble Stretched Out Of #RAW #MMBWWE

Critics of wrestling are more than quick to say nothing is real about it but one superstar's injury at the recent Raw event was legit.

During the main event, Seth Rollins called out Jamie Noble, Kane and Joey Mercury so he could apologise to them for something. It looked like the members of The Authority were set to be reunited. Enter Brock Lesnar to try and ruin it all.  He entered the ring to take out each and every one of them. However, during the brawl, he ended up throwing Noble into the audience barriers, which ended up having more than the intended effect.

Vince Russo Says Sami Zayn Doesn't Equal Ratings #MMBWWE

Vince Russo wrote a new blog this week and took a shot at Sami Zayn while discussing Monday's WWE RAW from Montreal. Russo wrote the following:

Please allow me to introduce myself—I’m Vince Russo.

‘”If the show is good . . . they will watch it.”

– Vince McMahon, sometime during the Attitude Era

Those were Vince McMahon’s exact words to me one day at his dining room table while we were working on the next episode of RAW. The conversation came about when the previous show’s rating came in, and it faired extremely well against tough competition. Vince’s point was that no matter what else is on TV at the time—it doesn’t matter—if your show is good—it will be the one of choice.

Sami Zayn to undergo MRI on his shoulder #MMBNXT

WWE.com can confirm that Zayn will be undergoing an MRI on his shoulder tomorrow to determine the nature and extent of his injury.

Booker T Apologizes For Owen Hart Comment On RAW #MMBWWE

Booker T is receiving a lot of heat from fans on social media after a comment he made about the late Owen Hart on RAW. During Neville vs. Luke Harper in the King of the Ring tournament, JBL and Booker T were talking about how Neville could be the first high-flying King in WWE. JBL commented that Owen was a high-flyer but not like Neville and Booker said Owen "didn't defy gravity" like Neville. It seemed innocent the way he said it but there appeared to be activity on the headset as there was a bit of awkwardness after the line.

Booker apologized on Twitter after RAW:

I would never say anything to disrespect the legacy of Owen Hart. If I did offend anyone, I apologize.

Sting Makes First Appearance Ever On RAW #MMBWWE

While we've come to expect a big brawl to end the final Raw before the Royal Rumble, WWE decided to change it up, and instead the end of Raw featured the first appearance of Sting on the Monday night program.

WWE fans have been waiting for the next sighting of Sting ever since his WWE debut at Survivor Series.

Backstage News On The Rock vs Rusev At RAW #MMBWWE

As seen on WWE RAW from Brooklyn, The Rock made a surprise return and confronted Rusev. An in-ring segment led to The Rock attacking Rusev and sending him out of the ring.

WWE officials did not want Rock to do any more than what he did to Rusev; no Rock Bottom, People's Elbow or anything like that, possibly to keep Rusev strong.

The feeling among people backstage at RAW last night that that a match between Rock and Rusev is doubtful but obviously it could be possible for WrestleMania 31 season some time.
