— Batista vs. John Cena for the WWE Championship is being advertised as the dark match main event for the June 14 Raw taping in Charlotte, NC. Many of the names drafted to Raw last night are being advertised for the show, so this would appear to be a recent advertisement.
— Randy Orton is scheduled to work the SmackDown house shows this weekend against Jack Swagger.
— Triple H has won the starring role in the WWE Studios film The Chaperone, which revolves around an ex-con who chaperones his daughter’s school field trip. Filming is scheduled for June in New Orleans. Triple H is currently shooting Killing Karma. That’ll make Batista even happier!
