The original plan for Monday’s WWE RAW was for Big Show and Mark Henry to face Erick Rowan and Luke Harper, which was actually taped for SmackDown.
The plan was for Bray Wyatt to attack Big Show after the match and lay him out with Sister Abigail, as a way to show how dangerous Wyatt still is. The idea was to come out of RAW with momentum for Wyatt.

Plans changed some time Monday afternoon and they went with the six-man match that pretty much saw Cena run through The Wyatt Family.

We’ve noted how Ryback tweeted that he was going away for a while. His tweet included a photo of his action figure standing over CM Punk’s action figure with a “sorry punk” commented.

WWE sources noted to PWInsider that back when Ryback feuded with Punk in 2012, there was a spot at an event where Ryback was supposed to drop Punk through a table. The spot was botched and Punk hit the floor, causing Punk to be hurt. Some of the wrestlers were under the impression this week that Ryback was just taking a shot and making fun of CM Punk.

Ryback is not expected to take any time off and the sources talking did not believe he was really injured. It’s worth noting that Curtis Axel has been working singles matches for about a week now and as noted, Adam Rose mentioned on Main Event last night that Ryback is injured.

Michael Cole stated on Main Event that Ryback would return “in a few weeks”.

We noted yesterday that there’s a lot of speculation within WWE that Batista may not be back as he’s experiencing major success with Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy. One WWE source noted to PWInsider that the company ignored Batista being in Guardians of the Galaxy because he wasn’t on their TV as a performer.

Apparently the Guardians producers didn’t want to buy WWE advertising for the movie. One source in WWE speculated that Marvel didn’t want the movie to become a “wrestler movie.”

There’s also a feeling within WWE that the company downplayed Batista in Guardians because they feel he’s not coming back any time soon.
