More On Backstage WWE Talent Meeting Story, Poor WWE Attendance, Batista On James Bond Set Photo

By Marc Middleton

- Attendance was said to be very bad at last night's WWE Main Event and SmackDown tapings in Laredo, Texas.

- As noted earlier today, Cody Rhodes tried to shoot down the report from verified WWE insider MetsFan4Ever about Triple H holding a backstage talent meeting at Monday's RAW. Dave Meltzer of The Wrestling Observer Newsletter noted today that talent meetings do happen as he just reported on one a few weeks back. Meltzer also said MetaFan4Ever was correct about The Authority reciting Vince McMahon lines in their promos this week, referring to Vince tearing up the RAW script at 3pm EST and there being a feeling that Triple H and Stephanie McMahon's promos were Vince's lines, not their own. Meltzer wrote:

"Funny, I just wrote about a talent meeting a few weeks ago that several different wrestlers confirmed to me. Maybe Cody isn't talent? And the guy noting HHH stumbling over his lines on Monday and suggesting why is amazingly on the ball."

- As noted, Batista will be playing villain Mr. Hinx in the next James Bond movie, Spectre. Filming is underway in the Austrian ski resort of Sölden. Below is Batista with Daniel Craig, who played James Bond, and Léa Seydoux, who plays Madeleine Swann.
