- Bray Wyatt going to the RAW brand in the "Superstar Shakeup" may have been a late change as his "House of Horrors" match with WWE Champion Randy Orton had been planned for the May 21st Backlash pay-per-view from Chicago, according to PWInsider. As noted, the match will take place at the April 30th Payback pay-per-view from San Jose.
- As noted, Lana and Rusev were announced for the SmackDown roster on last night's "Superstar Shakeup" show but it appears they may be separated. It also looks like Lana will be a part of the women's division. She tweeted the following last night on her big roster move:
