— Last night’s commercial free edition of RAW did a 3.4 cable rating, which up from previous weeks. They expected a huge increase this week due to the show being commercial-free and that’s exactly what they got.
— The May 7th episode of SmackDown! did a 1.7 rating.
— ODB wasn’t brought in for television this week as creative said they had nothing for her. As noted earlier, she has some heat for recent comments she made online questioning the direction of the Knockouts division–which everyone does privately. Her contract expires later this year.
— Travis Tomko and Shark Boy are also both not scheduled for any of this week’s TV tapings. Tomko is apparently moving to a new home.
