Even though he’s being advertised on the WWE website, Batista is not backstage at tonight’s Raw taping in Toronto. It appears he will lose his scheduled match against Randy Orton via forfeit due to the “injury” he suffered on Raw last week when Orton punted his head.
As expected, Trish Stratus is backstage at tonight’s Raw in Toronto. No word yet on whether she’ll be worked into an on-air cameo.
Former TNA wrestler Johnny Devine is also backstage at today’s show in Toronto. Devine was scheduled for a tryout with WWE today.
