— If any of you guys are in the Northeast (more specifically near Albany, NY), please be safe if you’re going out tonight. It just took me 2 hours to make a 30 minute drive earlier this evening as the roads are a complete mess and the snow is falling at insane rates. They are expecting 8-12 tonight/tomorrow so be careful!!
— SPOILER ALERT: The main event for next week’s Smackdown will be Big Show vs. Wade Barrett.
— WWE creative has recently discussed adding a female enforcer to The Nexus faction. The name that immediately comes to mind is Awesome Kong but nothing is confirmed as of this writing.
