Another 3 Hour Raw, Sonya Van Dam Update, WWE Writers Notes

- There is another 3 hour Raw special set for June 26th, in San Antonio, Texas (home of HBK).

- Thanks to Chris:
I was listening to the Joe McDonnell show on AM570 here in L.A. and his co-hosts Joe Grande and Tim Cates were razzing him on why his phone was going off during the show. Well RVD sent McDonnell a text that Sonya got out of surgery and is doing well. That is good news and I hope her recovery goes well. (RVD revealed that his wife was diagnosed with colon cancer a few days ago).

- Seth Mates – former WWE creative writer has updated us on his newsday.com blog and explains how WWE writers end up becoming just another cog in the system:

"One of the secrets to success in the wrestling business is to know when it's time to stop fighting and just play along. More often than not, Brian would be fighting for new and fresh and different, and while he helped spearhead a lot of good change creatively, ultimately creative is in Vince's hands. And when Vince tells you to tap out, you tap out. So Brian follows his boss' wishes — just like you or I would do. And the fact that a "non-wrestling" guy has been with the company in such an integral leadership role for almost nine years now should show you just how important and valued a cog he is in that system."
