- Former WWE Champion John "Bradshaw" Layfield teased on his Twitter that he would be replacing Booker T on commentary on SmackDown, writing, "I was only debating coming back, not very serious. But after @MichaelCole shows he is still alive and an idiot. I'm coming back! #smackdown." When someone wrote that it needed to happen, JBL replied, "you never know. Just having fun on Twitter, but if job was offered to me-would be very tempting.... Smackdown job would be great, but hasn't been offered so no plans as of now."

- The Great Khali was released from a hospital and is back home in Texas after successfuly undergoing surgery to remove a growth hormone secreting tumour in Pittsburgh last week.

- Chris Jericho and Zack Ryder teamed up at this weekend's RAW live events to face Dolph Ziggler and WWE Intercontinental Champion The Miz.

- The Miami Herald has an interview with Shawn Michaels, who was promoting his show, "MacMillan River Adventures." During the interview, Michaels discussed the possibility of wrestling another match.

"Obviously, I want to do things that will help," said Michaels. "You don't want to bring me back for no other reason. It would depend on what it was. I am not as young as I once was. Do I think about that stuff? Yeah. It's one of those things that I know that I can do it. At the same time I can also drink a six pack and be able to drive home, but do I want to give that a whirl? No.... I do have to give more thought to that kind of stuff. I can't just go in with reckless abandonment. At least at this point nobody has even asked about that stuff, so I haven't really given it that much thought."

Michaels also discussed Steve Austin and Ted Nugent appearing on his show, you can check out the full interview by clicking here.
