-- Rey Mysterio will not be wrestling at WrestleMania after all. Mysterio is scheduled to undergo surgery to repair his torn biceps muscle this Friday, reports prowrestling.NET. He will miss between four and six months. After missing WrestleMania last year, Mysterio had his sights set on wrestling at this year's event as there were plans to do a Mysterio & Floyd Mayweather vs. Big Show & Shane McMahon match. As a consolation prize, Mysterio, who was seen briefly shown backstage on Raw tonight with Mayweather, has been been assured that he will still be involved in the angle in some way.

-- WWE.com has posted an update on Hornswoggle's storyline injuries at this link. According to the article, Hornswoggle is being evaluated at a local medical facility in the Anaheim area. They are playing it up by saying that he suffered head and internal injuries. The article also notes that he went into shock on the way to the hospital. WWE.com will "update his condition" as it becomes available.
