Dolph Ziggler Return Update, NXT, New Branded WWE Events This Weekend (Reports Wanted)

- Starting this weekend, all U.S. WWE live events will be branded as "WWE Live," instead of having separate "RAW World Tour" and "SmackDown World Tour" shows. The Shield vs. Randy Orton & Team Hell No headlines this weekend's SmackDown "WWE Live" events in Pennsylvania and New York.

- As noted earlier, Dolph Ziggler is advertised for this weekend's SmackDown live events, even though he is still not cleared to return to the ring from his concussion that he suffered several weeks ago. There is a possibility that he could be appearing to cut a promo or accompany Big E Langston to the ring, although it could just be a case of the advertising being old. According to Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline, Ziggler was scheduled to be tested soon, and may get tested at RAW this Monday night in Hartford, CT. If he is cleared to return, he could be appearing on this Monday's show.

- NXT presents a live event tonight at Minnreg Hall in Largo, FL.

- The SmackDown brand kicks off the weekend with a live event Saturday night at the Stabler Arena in Bethlehem, PA. Bell time is 7:30 pm. You can purchase tickets for the event here.

- The SmackDown brand finishes the weekend with a live event Sunday evening at the Mid Hudson Civic Center in Poughkeepsie, NY. Bell time is 5:00pm, you can purchase tickets for the show here.

- As always, we would appreciate a report for any of these shows, so if you are attending one, please send us a report by clicking here.
