» Bret Hart has been very hands-on mentoring David Hart Smith, Tyson Kidd and Natalya (The Hart Dynasty). He watches all of their matches and sends them a report card each week if he’s not on the road with them.

» Brett DiBiase, who was scheduled to be called up alongside Joe Hennig to be part of a heel trio (The Fortunate Sons) on RAW with his brother Ted, suffered a knee injury last Thursday at a Florida Championship Wrestling event in Tampa as we noted earlier. He was actually wrestling Hennig when the injury happened.

» The Great Khali was drafted to RAW during the Supplemental Draft because company officials don’t want him on the same brand as The Big Show. With Show’s gimmick being “The World’s Largest Athlete,” it wouldn’t make much sense to have someone bigger than him on the same show.

Report: Another WWE Draft scheduled in three weeks – WWE really wants to shake things up!
