Backstage Storyline Plans - Cena-Barrett & Edge-Kane Feuds

Source: The Wrestling Observer Newsletter

– The conclusion to John Cena's lengthy program with Wade Barrett was moved up from the Royal Rumble to Sunday's WWE TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs pay-per-view due to injuries suffered by Randy Orton, which limited his availability.

– As reported earlier, the Rey Mysterio vs. Alberto Del Rio match scheduled for Sunday's WWE TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs pay-per-view was canceled and both men were moved into the World Heavyweight Title bout because they wanted all the major matches on the show to have adequate time. It has since been disclosed that WWE officials felt the Kane vs. Edge storyline "wasn't clicking," and would thus lead to a bad pay-per-view match.
