Some WWE news to kick off the day!
- Raw will tape in a few hours in London, England, from the O2 Arena. All that has been announced for the show is HHH vs. Randy Orton in a non-title, no DQ match. [Credit: Pwinsider.com]
- Ric Flair is doing commercials for the Lowe's Shootout on May 17th at the Lowe's Motor Speedway. Commercials are currently running on Fox Sports Radio's XM Radio channel. [Credit: Pwinsider.com]
And when TNA did this everyone crapped all over it.
Let's see if WWE gets the same treatment

WWE has been going across the pond quite a bit to tape RAW recently... They better watch it, the Brits won't always pack that arena for them if they come over too often.

I expect 2 more matches to be made this week, it certainly isnt going to be a 4 match card thats for sure!

Backlash looks to be a good card so far.

I think Orton is gonna win tonight. Mainly because HHH won at Mania

I crapped on TNA for doing this with the world title, and I'll gladly crap on WWE for doing it now. I'd rather see Sting/Foley again than watch the title be defended like this, and I am not a TNA fan at all.

Gotta disagree with you there homeboy. The UK has always been a major market for WWF/E and wrestling in general. There's always been a culture here of when you're a kid and you're growing up you will watch wrestling at some point. TNA did record numbers last time it was here and the crowds are always HOT. Bottom line, the WWE could do hundreds of live events here a year and they would all sell out.

How on earth would you come to that conclusion?
Thats like saying if WWE went to MSG once a year they would start getting lower ticket sales.

@Guest#3863, WWE did "this" at King of the ring 2000. Do you remember ? ? ?

I respect your honesty.

Expect a lot of Orton chants on Raw tonight.
