— Last night’s episode of WWE RAW scored 4.2 million viewers, up just under 1% from last week’s 4.16 million. The show had hours of 4.42 million, 4.30 million and 3.89 million, with an average of 1.5 in the 18 – 49 demo. The demo rating was even with last week. The final rating will be out shortly. Stay tuned.

— The timing of Miz’s heel turn may have been a mistake. Some within WWE wondered why he was turning heel so close to the release of his movie Christmas Bounty. WWE reportedly forgot about the date of the movie release and went ahead with his heel turn anyway.

— As noted earlier here on the website, WWE officials have been negotiating with Hulk Hogan about a return to the company. WWE management is currently discussing having Hogan team up with John Cena at Wrestlemania XXX. This would obviously lessen the work load on Hogan.
