— ESPN has announced via press release that Todd Grisham, who worked for WWE from 2004 through 2011, will be taking over Friday Night Fights on ESPN2 HD and ESPN Deportes. Grisham will be the studio host while former host Bernardo Osuna will become the show’s first on-site reporter. Grisham’s gig will begin when the show comes back on January 4th.

— As noted yesterday here on the website, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is scheduled to appear on the first Monday Night RAW of 2013 on 1/7 in Tampa and the SmackDown taping the following night on 1/8 in Miami. We reported earlier that Rock is scheduled to make regular appearances on Raw in early 2013 heading into the Royal Rumble along with hype for WrestleMania 29.

— As noted earlier, R-Truth is expected to be out of the ring until January 2013. This is believed to be due in part to the injury photo he tweeted following the TLC PPV.
