Randy Orton is backstage at tonight's Monday Night Raw taping in Nashville, TN. Linda McMahon is also backstage at the taping.

For those of you who are attending tonight's taping, WWE announced this afternoon that the taping start time has been changed to 7 PM Central, so factor that into your plans. If you attend the taping, we are seeking live reports.

There is a Rob Van Dam promo on the WWE website discussing Vince McMahon winning the ECW belt.

Justin sent the following....As part of the on-going promotional vehicle for The Condemned, Steve Austin was the host of the Octane Rock 20 yesterday afternoon at 1pm EST on Sirius Satellite Radio. It was pretty basic stuff, counting down the top 20 most requested songs of the week, and Steve promoting the movie at every chance he got (some of the cuts were pretty funny). It replays Wednesday afternoon at 5pm EST on Octane 20, if anyone is interested in listening to it.

WWE will be releasing a three DVD set titled "The Legacy of Stone Cold Steve Austin" on 11/20, just in time for the Christmas season. Promotional material for the DVD reads, "A career-spanning retrospective of the Rattlesnake that highlights Austin’s amazing career and his legendary rivalries with Bret Hart, The Rock, Mick Foley, Triple H, Kurt Angle, Undertaker, Kane, Scott Hall, Eddie Guerrero and more. Stone Cold Steve Austin’s Life and Legacy will also include footage and matches from WCW, ECW, and his Smokey Mountain days." Austin never actually worked for SMW.

Speaking of Austin, The Condemned's poor debut weekend turned out to be the lowest grossing movie weekend in a long, long time, according to numerous media reports today.

WWE and Lion's Gate actually sent Steve Austin to several movie theatres in Manhattan this past Friday night to promote the film and introduce it, but WWE.com erroneously listed the appearances as happening the night before.
