    Sources report that WWE officials are looking at Sheamus to be the next big star for the SmackDown brand and will be pushing him as a major player going into WrestleMania 28. The idea is that Mark Henry, Randy Orton and Sheamus will be the cornerstones of the blue brand.

    Vince McMahon has always been a fan of Sheamus but has taken more of a liking to him as of late.

    Regarding early ideas for WrestleMania 28 next year, that will likely change several times, Sheamus challenging Henry for the World Heavyweight Title is penciled in.

    According to sources close to the situation, Chris Jericho has been talking with WWE about his future with the company. Jericho's return may not be a full-time thing and it's said he may work a limited schedule, something similar to The Rock. There's no word yet on when he might return but it's believed he will work with WWE again closer to 2012.

    In light of news that WWE Chief Operating Officer Triple H has vowed to not step down from running the Raw Supershow, Christian has spearheaded an effort by various Superstars, Divas, referees, announcers and crew members to travel to Oklahoma City on Monday and stage a "Solidarity Rally" in the backstage parking lot of the Chesapeake Energy Arena prior to the show. The contingent, which consists of those who walked out on Triple H this past Monday night, tell WWE.com that they will not return to the Raw Supershow or step into the venue to perform until Triple H relinquishes control.

    The RAW walkout storyline will continue on tonight's Supershow from the Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. There is a "solidarity rally" planned with the disgruntled Superstars that will take place in the parking lot of the arena for tonight's show. Several Superstars have tweeted this weekend that they are bringing signs for the picket line tonight.

    The updated preview from the Chesapeake Energy Arena reads like this:

    "Triple H vows to absolutely not step down from running Monday Night RAW. Furthermore, Triple H vows that John Cena, CM Punk, Randy Orton, Sheamus and the Big Show will headline Monday night's event. However, 55 of the WWE Superstars who walked out last week have vowed not to return until Triple H is removed from power."

    WWE has been teasing a brawl at the rally between the Superstars who walked out and the 5 Superstars named above.

    WWE has reportedly been looking at cutting costs that won't have a direct impact on their product, such as using less pyro at shows.

    WWE Chairman Vince McMahon made a surprise return on Monday’s RAW. In an ironic twist of fate, Vince McMahon informed Triple H that the Board of Directors had relieved Triple H of his duties as COO. This is the same explanation Vince McMahon was given back in July when Triple H informed him he was forced out of his job.

    Vince McMahon named John Laurinaitis is the new interim RAW General Manager.

    Jim Ross was fired by John Laurinaitis on RAW, which took place from JR’s home state of Oklahoma.

    The Miz and R-Truth have been reinstated. CM Punk was wrestling WWE champion Alberto Del Rio during the main event of RAW, when Laurinaitis came out and told them the match was being changed to a tag team match. Punk and Del Rio would be teaming up against the reinstated Miz and R-Truth.

    WWE's website posted a video of Interim RAW General Manager John Laurinaitis backstage last night talking about his new job. Laurinaitis stressed that the gig is temporary and he would not be quitting his job as Executive Vice President of Talent Relations.

    In keeping with the storylines, Laurinaitis was tweeting back and forth with The Miz last night after RAW. Laurinaitis thanked The Miz and R-Truth for dropping their lawsuit against WWE.

    It was also noted on WWE's website that Triple H had just been relieved of his duties running RAW. Apparently The Game is still the WWE COO, in the storylines at least.

    WWE creative has been working on ideas for The Muppets this week. The Muppets will be hosting the Halloween episode of RAW on October 31st from Atlanta, Georgia.

    Felipe Barerra, a high school football coach in Texas, received a one-week suspension after being caught throwing a DX crotch chop to the opposing team as his team was celebrating their win this week.

    According to the Super Lucha Magazine Mil Mascaras will be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame next year during Wrestlemania XXVIII weekend in Miami, Florida.

    In real-life, Mascaras is the uncle of WWE Champion Alberto Del Rio and is scheduled to be at tonight's Smackdown taping currently underway in Mexico.


    Following WWE's RAW and SmackDown tapings from Mexico City over the weekend, there have been several changes made to the card for Vengeance. The previously scheduled tag team title match with Air Boom vs. Ziggler & Swagger has apparently been scrapped, with Dolph Ziggler now set to defend the United States title against Zack Ryder. Teddy Long also announced Sheamus will wrestle Christian.

    With those matches set, here's the updated card for WWE Vengeance on Sunday, October 23rd:

    Last Man Standing Match for the WWE Title
    John Cena vs. Alberto Del Rio

    World Heavyweight Title Match
    Big Show vs. Mark Henry

    CM Punk and Triple H vs. The Miz and R-Truth

    WWE United States Title Match
    Zack Ryder vs. Dolph Ziggler

    WWE Divas Title Match
    Eve Torres vs. Beth Phoenix

    Cody Rhodes vs. Randy Orton

    Sheamus vs. Christian

    The Pro Wrestling Torch reports that CM Punk is in "top consideration" for the WWE Championship Match at WrestleMania XXVIII since company officials are leaning against the title being on the line in the match pitting John Cena against The Rock.

    The heavily hyped bout is not expected to be for the title because WWE brass feel the finish would be too obvious since fans don't expect The Rock to leave WrestleMania as champion.

    Cena will reportedly be removed from the title picture following Sunday's Vengeance pay-per-view, which would indicate that Alberto Del Rio will retain the title in their Last Standing Match. Cena will begin building towards his partnership with The Rock at Survivor Series while Del Rio is expected to enter a program with Punk.


    Former WCW star Horace Hogan turns 46 years old today while ECW Original Chris Hamrick turns 45 and Bushwhacker Butch turns 67.

    As seen on RAW, The Rock and John Cena will be teaming up together against The Miz and R-Truth at Survivor Series on 11/20.

    As recent as last week - WWE was planning on featuring The Rock and Cena in a traditional 5-on-5 match.

    As previously reported, WWE is billing John Cena and The Rock's tag team at Survivor Series as "The Most Charismatic Tag Team of All Time."


    As seen on RAW this week, Triple H name-dropped Sean Waltman and Shawn Michaels when talking about his friends in the business. It was noted by some backstage that Triple H did not mention Scott Hall or Ric Flair because of their situations. Regarding Waltman working with WWE again, most believe that he will be hired as some kind of agent for FCW once Triple H’s developmental changes are figured out and begin.

    SmackDown, Airing Friday:

    Teddy Long opens the show and talks about the fate of the World Heavyweight Title. Christian comes out and as usual wants a title shot. CM Punk interrupts him and apparently Teddy has brought some RAW stars to tonight’s show. Punk vs. Christian is announced for tonight.

    The Miz and R-Truth beat Evan Bourne and Kofi Kingston in a quick non-title match when Truth pinned Kofi. Truth and Miz cut a promo after the match and teased that The Rock may take out John Cena before they can.

    Backstage segment with Daniel Bryan, Tyson Kidd and Santino Marella. Santino proposes Bryan vs. Kidd to see who’s best later tonight.

    Wade Barrett beat Trent Baretta in another quick match.

    Randy Orton beat Dolph Ziggler in another non-title match. This will probably end up being match of the night. Orton won with the RKO. After the match, Orton had a staredown with Cody Rhodes, who did commentary for the match.

    Backstage interview with Matt Striker and the fake Sin Cara. He has a new look and is out to get the original Sin Cara.

    Daniel Bryan defeated Tyson Kidd in less than five minutes with the LaBell Lock. I’m pretty sure Bryan came out to a new theme song as well.

    Michael Cole got our attention and ripped on Jim Ross some more, showing the fake photos from RAW again. Cole says JR has accepted his challenge and The Michael Cole Challenge is on for Monday.

    Big Show comes out to talk about Vengeance and the match against Mark Henry. Show says he has a rematch coming and out comes Henry. Henry said he’s moving on from Show but they had a staredown to end the segment.

    CM Punk defeated Christian in the main event that saw interference from Ricardo Rodriguez, Alberto Del Rio and Sheamus. Sheamus distracted Christian, allowing Punk to hit the GTS for the win.

    Smackdown:

    *Randy Orton defeated Cody Rhodes in an awesome Street Fight following a hanging DDT on the outside off the barricade to the floor and then an RKO inside the ring. This was a great brawl through the crowd with Rhodes' mask being used as a weapon. Orton bagged Rhodes after.

    *Ted DiBiase defeated Tyson Kidd.

    *World champion Mark Henry was interviewed backstage. He began bullying Daniel Bryan, mocking his Money In The Bank briefcase, saying Bryan could never beat him. He challenged Bryan to wrestle him tonight and Bryan accepted.

    *Alicia Fox pinned Natalya.

    *Big Show comes out and says he's going to knock out Mark Henry once for every week of Dmackdown where their business goes unfinished. Christian comes out and says Show had his chance and failed. He insults the South (Show is originally from Aiken, SC). Show acts like he was going to KO Christian, then promises he won't. Instead he chokeslams him and leaves him laying.

    *Sheamus comes out for his scheduled match against Christian but he's out from the chokeslam. Wade Barrett comes out and offers to replace him and they ring the bell.

    *Barrett pinned Sheamus with a roll up after Christian distracted him. Christian was outside from the chokeslam the entire bout. Sheamus tries to get Barrett after the bout but Christian spears him,

    *After a break, we see Sheamus brawling backstage with Christian and Barrett until they are all separated by security.

    *Backstage, Big Show tells Daniel Bryan to take special care of his briefcase, because Show will be in his corner tonight against Mark Henry.

    *Sin Cara vs. the debuting Epico from WWE developmental. Hunico interferes and they double team Cara. They nailed a double team move but messed it up and did it again. That'll be edited.

    *World champion Mark Henry defeated Daniel Bryan by DQ when Big Show interfered and knocked out Henry. Bryan acts like he might cash in but is nailed by Henry and hit with the World's Strongest Slam. Henry nailed Show with the briefcase. No cashing in.

    Afterward, Teddy Long announced Show vs. Henry for Survivor Series and we end with a staredown.
