Kevin Nash/RVD tag team, Rumored RAW storyline, Bad Blood, Ultimo Dragon
    Submitted by Ben Johnson on Monday, June 23, 2003 at 2:11 PM EST

  • WWE officials are totally impressed with what they've seen of Ultimo Dragon on the house shows, and are anxiously awaiting his debut. The tentative plan is for Ultimo Dragon to face Rey Mysterio at Summerslam, but there have also been talks of having the two form an alliance for the next few months.

  • The current plan is for Kevin Nash to team with Rob Van Dam against Triple H & Flair on the July house shows. Note that these cards change as frequently as the weather, so there's no guarantee that this exact match will headline all the RAW shows in July.

  • WWE is hoping that Bad Blood does a solid buyrate, but is slightly worried about revenue since they gave the PPV away for free to returning US troops. A bad buyrate, however, would be even worse for WWE than usual as it not only shows that split-brand PPVs don't have too much potential, but it indicates that Foley, the HIAC, HHH/Nash, Goldberg/Jericho, and Flair/HBK couldn't culminate for a big buyrate.

  • Roddy Piper has been keeping to himself backstage and dresses totally apart from the rest of the talent.

  • Mark Jindrak has reportedly sent word to his fan club (based on reader report) of the plans for his WWE debut. Note that this should be taken as a rumor, but does have some spoiler nature to it, so you have to highlight below to read the tidbit.

    BEGIN HIGHLIGHT

    Jindrak noted that he is indeed set to be the fourth member in Evolution, and will be with the group leading up to Batista's return. Batista is set to feud with Evolution, presumably over them moving on without him. No word on whether Jindrak was told that this was the plan for Batista, or if he's just speculating.

    END HIGHLIGHT
