As seen on Monday’s Raw, Dolph Ziggler made his first televised wrestling appearance of the year in a mixed tag match against Cryme Tyme and Melina. This was his first wrestling appearance on Raw since the December 29, 2008 show. Following Ziggler’s appearance, as well as Manu’s release from the company on Monday, that leaves Charlie Haas as the only active wrestler on the main roster to not wrestle on television in 2009 (Batista & Evan Bourne are injured; DH Smith & Ryan Braddock are in developmental). Haas has not competed on Raw since December 29, 2008 when he lost to Sim Snuka. While Haas still has yet to compete in a televised match this year, he actually has appeared on the program at least once in 2009. He appeared on stage alongside the Raw roster during the infamous Shane McMahon-Randy Orton confrontation on January 26.
