The RAW show was definitely hurt by ESPN's Monday Night Football, drawing an 11.8 cable rating which was the largest number in ESPN History. As noted earlier, RAW did hours of 3.4 and 3.5 with the overrun doing 4.0 for a total 3.4 cable rating. That is down from last week's 3.7 and is one of the lowest non-holiday numbers all year for RAW.

Kid Kash was released from WWE due to attitude problems. That's the same issue he had with TNA and has had with many other independent promotions.
