– Only hours after giving Dolph Ziggler a serious concussion, there was said to be a lot of discussion backstage regarding Ryback’s commentary during the Curtis Axel vs. Big E. Langston match from “Old School” Raw. The line that has everyone talking is when Ryback apologized for being horse, blaming it on hanging around Lilian Garcia. For those unaware, Lilian has been mocked within WWE for years over the belief that she has a “horse face.” It doesn’t seem like Ryback can do anything right these days.
– Though he was advertised for the event, “American Dream” Dusty Rhodes was noticeably absent from “Old School” Raw. Rhodes hasn’t been featured on WWE television since his involvement in the storyline where his sons Goldust and Cody Rhodes got their jobs back late last year. The reason for this is Rhodes went off script during a promo on RAW with Stephanie McMahon, going as far as to put his hand in her face and not letting her get the better of him. Ever since that segment, there is said to be heat on Dusty with WWE management.
– “Hardcore Legend” Mick Foley tweeted today that some of the content he has planned for his upcoming comedy shows later this week may generate some heat from WWE management. Foley tweeted: “I’m pretty sure this week’s shows are going to get me fired from @WWE. Should be fun!” It sounds like Foley made the joke in jest, but one can never be too sure.
