— We will be LIVE at the WWE NXT and SmackDown! tapings this Tuesday in Albany, NY. I’ll have two live correspondents outside the arena calling me with arrival news (during the afternoon) as well as backstage notes. We’ll have coverage all day long and then WZR Radio will broadcast LIVE from inside the arena during the NXT and SD! tapings. We’ll give you second-by-second play-by-play from inside the Times Union Center in Albany, NY this Tuesday night on WZR Radio! Be here Tuesday as it’s going to be a HUGE day for us.

— Randy Orton was pulled out of a planned cage match with Sheamus tonight in Newark, NJ due to a stiff neck. He worked an angle with John Cena where Cena fought Sheamus and Orton was put in a six-man tag, allowing him to protect his neck. He’ll be at RAW this week.
