- During the finals of the No. 1 Tag Team Title No. 1 Contenders' Tournament on Raw Monday, broadcaster Jim Ross acknowledged participant Rey Mysterio's past tag team partnerships with Konnan and Juventud Guerrera. When it was brought to Konnan's attention on Twitter, he responded, "wow i must not be blackballed..thats a first."
Konnan is believed to be considered persona non grata within WWE after bolting from the promotion in 1992 following a disagreement with Vince McMahon. The WWE chief previously had big plans for Konnan, as he had spent over $10,000 on an elaborate outfit for him to wear as the futuristic character Max Moon.
- This week's WWE Classics On Demand updates are as follows: WWE Over the Limit (May 20, 2012), World Wrestling Federation at Philadelphia Spectrum (October 11, 1980), WWWF Championship Wrestling (September 17, 1977), ECW Hardcore TV (May 19, 1998), WWF Prime Time Wrestling (September 11, 1989).
- Ryback, who has primarily competed on Raw in recent weeks, is now listed as a member of the Raw roster on the official WWE website. It is his second official stint with the brand, with the first taking place in 2010 when he was a member of The Nexus.
