- It was good seeing Shaq Monday while in D.C. taping the lone, SD bout for WWE Superstars, that was excellent BTW. Shaq was his regular, friendly self who had a legit fun time at Raw and enjoyed being around the talent. I was pleasantly surprised at how lean Big Shaq was which must mean that he is eagerly anticipating his season coming up with the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Big Fellow really looked in excellent, physical condition. Shaq is a natural born performer and a true fan of WWE which all seemed to come through clearly to me on the Monday evening telecast.
- Entourage's Jeremy Piven will have his hands full following Shaq's act this Monday when Piven Guest Hosts Raw from the Mohegan Sun Casino which is one of my favorite spots to visit when on the road. I don't plan on being there this Monday but that always could change I have grown to know. However, I will be in Long Island for SD on Tuesday night and the Nassau Coliseum is a big time arena that is "in the shadow of New York City" or so I've been told and prompted to say on air many times.
- The John Morrison vs. Tyson Kidd bout this Thursday night on WGN America's WWE Superstars is a helluva wrestling match especially considering the overall youth of the participants. Kidd can get it done and Morrison is a future, perennial, PPV main eventer, unless I'm dead wrong on both these young men. Food for thought: Kidd vs. Mysterio some day down the road is golden.
- Too much of the same thing on any TV show is a negative and the wrestling business, in particular, has always had the ability to introduce new people, get them properly positioned and to make the new individuals feel special to the fans. That doesn't come without a few calculated risks but that's simply a function of doing business, any business.
- I can't vouch for the validity of all the "spoilers" out there, no not little Don Jardine's, but internet spoilers who tell us the ending of the movie before we see it, but my "take" on Friday night's Jeff Hardy vs. John Morrison match is that it is good...really good. This match was fresh and felt special.
~New World champion Jeff Hardy came to the ring and discusses his match tonight against John Morrison. Cryme Time come out and celebrate with Hardy. Hardy leaves.
~Cryme Time vs. The Hart Dynasty for a WWE Unified Tag Team championship shot. CT win and earn a shot at Summerslam. The Big Show and Chris Jericho come out and say they are going to destroy them at the PPV and they go back and forth on the mic.

~Eve and Melina defeated Layla El & Women's champion Michelle McCool.
~Backstage, CM Punk was interviewed and said he wishes everyone was straightedge and he will face whoever wins the World title match tonight.
