A couple other sites are reporting it's going to be Brock/Goldberg. They also said he's signed a new deal with WWE to do stuff for the network, and special appearances. It also said this new deal won't affect him working with new Japan

Styles/Shane seems like the best match for JR since there will surely be some BAH GAWD moments.

They should just let JR call the entire show.

Jim Ross has a part-timer deal with the WWE:

Also, have no idea if this has been mentioned before, but Mauro Ranallo has been battling depression, which is why he hasn't been on the last few weeks of Smackdown. Apparently, JBL has been hazing him: http://www.wrestlinginc.com/wi/news/...jbl-and-mauro/

Yeah Bas Rutten was calling JBL out and that's something you don't want.

Did you all see that dear leader is a big fan of JBLs stock tips?

Still think they should use JR to get some RR heat.

Damn. Sandow seems really down to earth and a good guy. Can't say that for most wrestlers. Hope to see him back in WWE again. Would be great to see him run out of the crowd and attack Miz on SD

Don't want to see him retire, but glad his Adrian Adonis/Liberace character bit the dust.

Props for calling them Impact I guess. I find it pretty funny that they haven't been called TNA for a couple months and no one has really noticed.

Meltzer's rumors on the "shakedown" happening next week:

AJ moving to Raw
New Day going to Smackdown
Bliss and Charlotte are going to switch places
Drifter and Almas being called up from NXT

AJ and Bliss for Charlotte and New Day is a wretched trade for SD if that bears out, regardless of Charlotte being awesome.

Don't really see what New Day going to SD does for them or the tag division. Also don't really get Charlotte on SD.

Yea nothing about any of those trades make sense. Lol one of the only great wrestlers/main eventers SD has and they are jettisoning him to raw for new day? Wtf?

AJ moving to Raw would be awful.

Charlotte for Bliss is a good idea.

I don't care where New Day winds up. Seems like they should be on the same show as Dash and Dawson though.

Cena on haitus, their top non cena to raw, replaced by comic relief and a guy who can't speak English

That's no good

That said an AJ Senor Joe feud would be sweet

Charlotte switching makes some sense. There are really only 3 other main women on Raw and her programs with two of them are already tired. Dana and Emma really don't count. It's a bit of a bummer because I don't think Bliss's Smackdown work is finished. I thought they were just starting a Nia Jax/Charlotte feud, though?

The downside to AJ to Raw is that Smackdown loses its anchor. But programs with Seth, Joe, Balor, and Lesnar, will make up for that.

Also keep in mind that 1) these are just rumors; and 2) Vince can change his mind on a whim. Even if he's 100% sure that AJ is moving to to Raw on Monday morning, he can change his mind before 8 pm.

On the plus side this almost guarantees Miz on the fast track to the main event
