- WWE officials have recently been discussing bringing back some credible veterans to help build some of the newer Superstars. However, one source doesn’t expect this to happen on a large scale after the returns of Trevor Murdoch and Snitsky were recently denied.
- Vince McMahon was reportedly disappointed with the outcome of Tough Enough and how the show failed, in his eyes, to produce new marketable talent with potential to be a top star.
It’s also said that Vince has shown frustration as of late with the WWE youth movement but Triple H and others are keeping him optimistic.
- While WWE officials have been high on Alex Riley as of late, there was a lot of second-guessing him after his WWE Title tournament match with The Miz on this past Monday’s RAW from Green Bay. There is talk of slowing Riley’s push down big time unless he improves in the ring. There was concern backstage on Monday that Riley would injure The Miz because of how sloppy he was being.
- The hot storyline with CM Punk, Vince McMahon, John Cena and now Triple H on RAW has been booked for the most part by Vince, Punk and Triple H with input from Cena and others on WWE creative. As always, Vince has the final say in whatever happens.
WWE creative sources report that some of the writers had no idea what was going to happen before Sunday’s Money in the Bank pay-per-view. This caused frustration among those writers because they couldn’t write most of Monday’s RAW until after Sunday’s pay-per-view ended.
