Source: The Wrestling Observer Newsletter
In addition to SummerSlam being moved out of Madison Square Garden, there were some other changes made to the 2007 WWE PPV schedule. Cyber Sunday, which may or may not have that name by this time next year, was originally scheduled for 11/04/07 but it will now be taking place on 10/28/07. Also, it will now be taking place in Washington DC at the Verizon Center. DC is also scheduled to host the Great American Bash. In addition to that, a PPV is scheduled to take place on 11/18/07 in Miami – one week before the Survivor Series in Montreal. WWE is trying to avoid a revenue decline next year in case international doesn't continue to increase, essentially by running more PPV events. No word on when SummerSlam tix go on sale.
Some heat still lingers between Melina and Mickie James because James was rubbing things in to her because she got to over in their match on RAW on 10/23. After she pinned Melina, Mickie taunted her by mocking the pose Melina would do in the center of the ring during her time with MNM. These two have a past of disliking each other that dates back to their time in Ohio Valley Wrestling.
