Orton Turns 59, More On This Week's RAW Rating, & More

– Slam Master J has a new video segment on WWE.com giving people tips on "how to be a G." Beth Phoenix's opponent on last week's episode of SmackDown, Brittany Carter, makes a brief appearance during the segment.

– The Monday Night Football game on ESPN did an 11.5 cable rating, and it was up a few points from last week. There was also no World Series game Monday night so the RAW 3.1 cable rating is definitely not good. There is also a scary trend beginning in recent weeks where the second hour is dropping. This week's RAW did hours of 3.17 and 2.95. That second hour rating is not good at all.

– The November 7th edition of AM Raw scored a 1.0 cable rating, its best rating in a long time.

– In yesterday's wrestling birthdays, WWE Hall of Famer "Cowboy" Bob Orton turned 59, former WWE wrestler Bill Demott turned 43, and Jushin "Thunder" Liger turned 44.
