– It’s said that the angle with Seth Rollins turning on The Shield at RAW was officially decided upon on Sunday afternoon before the Payback pay-per-view. The angle was apparently Vince McMahon’s reaction to the low RAW rating the week before.
– The Observer also noted that it’s said that when The Undertaker has been asked if he’s coming back for WrestleMania 31 after the brutal match at WrestleMania XXX and the other injuries he’s had, he’s said in the last week or two that it’s not looking good. Taker has been back in the gym working out, however.
– WWE has made multiple developmental deal offers to Scott Hall’s son Cody Hall. Cody has turned down the offers, saying he wants to make a name for himself on the indies before. We’ve heard more than once that Hall is serious about learning and making a name himself on the indies and internationally before looking at joining WWE.
– As noted, WWE is looking at doing four live NXT specials on the WWE Network each year. With tapings booked for September 11th and September 25th, it looks like the next live special will take place on September 10th but that’s not confirmed. Triple H previously mentioned possibly doing the next live show in August or September.
