WWE Working on Ideas for Rey Mysterio’s Return
WWE creative has been told to begin kicking around ideas for the return of Rey Mysterio.
Mysterio is a guy that’s hard to book because Vince McMahon often changes his mind on whether or not he wants to push him. However, despite McMahon’s uncertainty, Rey is still a top merchandise seller, even after a prolonged absence from TV.
Plans for a New Paul Heyman Guy to Debut, HHH Praises Heyman at RAW
- Paul Heyman got “major props” backstage for what was described as one of the best in-ring action promo angles ever on this week’s Monday Night RAW from Phoenix where he beat CM Punk with a kendo stick. When he got to the back, Triple H put him over and called his work “magic.”
- The plan as of this week is for a new Paul Heyman guy to “save him” at Night of Champions next month. We’re told this is the current course of storyline progression.

Orton’s Thoughts on Working with The Shield, RVD to Get Gold?
- Do not be surprised if WWE gives Rob Van Dam the World Heavyweight Title at the Night of Champions pay-per-view next month. RVD is expected to get a huge pop in Detroit and if WWE wants a title change for a few weeks or even a transition to Damien Sandow, this could be the best opportunity.
- Seth Rollins is officially out of the WWE doghouse. Randy Orton told a producer at RAW on Monday night in Phoenix that he enjoys working with The Shield.

Backstage Heat on Dolph Ziggler, Why Ricardo Was Put with RVD
- The pairing of Ricardo Rodriguez with Rob Van Dam was “super last minute” because Rey Mysterio wasn’t ready to come back.
- Word is that Dolph Ziggler is in the WWE doghouse. He was put under to Antonio Cesaro in a match taped for WWE Superstars and it’s rumored that he recently got into it with Randy Orton.

Daniel Bryan to Get Some Help In His Feud with Orton & HHH
There is talk of pairing CM Punk with Daniel Bryan to feud with Triple H and Randy Orton. Under this scenario, Punk would do a worked shoot promo with Bryan about where they came from and how Punk had to threaten to quit before getting a push.
He would focus on Triple H “holding guys down” and how they aren’t the model WWE guys and now they’re treating Bryan how they treated him.
Word is that under this scenario, Paul Heyman would realign with Punk because the only thing they hate more than each other is the McMahons.
Another proposed plan is to align Bryan with Shawn Michaels, like we’ve written about before.

WWE Wants The Undertaker In a Big Match at Survivor Series
WWE is still hoping to get The Undertaker to work a match before WrestleMania XXX at one of the pay-per-views left this year. Unable to get a deal together for him to work SummerSlam, the new target for his return is Survivor Series.
While there is no way of nailing down a definitive program three months out, we’re told there was talk of doing something with The Wyatt Family and Kane. WWE likes the idea of a legend like Undertaker working with some of their up and coming talent, which is what he did with The Shield after WrestleMania 29.
At this point whether or not Undertaker works before Wrestlemania is completely up to him.
