Laurinaitis Replaced, Vader Praises Heath Slater, Frustration Over Talent Recruiting, Mysterio

- As noted earlier this week, Rey Mysterio comes off suspension next week and is still not advertised for any live events or TV tapings.

- John Laurinaitis is no longer the person putting together WWE live event lineups. Michael Hayes is now in charge of that.

- When it comes to recruiting talent, the frustration is back that Vince McMahon wants the athletes recruited and signed to all be bigger, more muscular guys.

- Vader was praising Heath Slater for his work in their match on RAW two weeks ago. Vader would like one more run but his knees are shot and he's got a bad back.
