- As you have probably noticed, The Big Show did not return on tonight's RAW as advertised. WWE had released the above promo last week hyping his return on tonight's show. Big Show also tweeted the following last Friday: "#monday night raw. Austin Texas. :-)"
No explanation was given for his absence, although he was noticeably limping when he worked Money In The Bank as an analyst last week.

- Jim Ross commented on Daniel Bryan's performance on RAW tonight, who wrestled the final three matches of the show (four if you count the post-show dark match). Ross wrote on his Twitter, "Thinking @WWEDanielBryan was easily star of #WWERaw & that his skill set would translate well to any era that I've experienced in biz."

- The following press release was issued today:
