— It has been confirmed that Barry “Repo Man/Smash” Darsow and WWE Hall of Famer The Iron Sheik have been booked for tonight’s Raw’s 15th anniversary show. Iron Sheik managed The Sultan (a masked Rikishi) in 1996-97. Darsow appeared on Raw’s second ever show in his “Repo Man” gimmick in January 1993, but left the company shortly there after.

— On WWE 24/7, they’re doing a thing where a WWE personality introduces his or her favorite wrestling match ever. Michael Cole’s favorite match was the Brock Lesnar vs. Eddie Guerrero match at No Way Out ’04. In the match playing on WWE 24/7, they edited out Lesnar screaming, “Die Eddie!”, not to mention Tazz’s response to it on commentary. They muted the ring noise & commentary and put in a crowd audio track. You can still see Lesnar mouthing the words but there is no sound.

— Candice Michelle has posted a new blog on WWE.com. She talks about how her health has been holding up the past few weeks. She reveals that the orthopedic surgeon that worked on her said it would take approximately 12 weeks for her injury to heal. Her injury took place seven weeks ago today, so five weeks to go. She should be good to go in mid-January. In the blog, Candice also notes that the promo Ric Flair did two weeks ago made her tear up.
