The WWE is currently in Australia doing a quick tour before heading back home for Raw Monday night. Here are various video clips of media coverage and fan video.
Just landed in Sydney. Thanks to the lady who helped me achieve my goal of meeting a Koala. Sort of. His name is Benny. twitter.com/WWEAJLee/statu…

A response to Ed Boston by @TrevorDecker
It’s late at night but I wanted to check the progress on our site’s new layout. I was not expecting this post from someone who is trying to establish a legit wrestling news website. Where do you get off demanding respect for Vickie Gaurrero just because you both are probably close in age?
What is it with the older generations hating on AJ Lee? AJ and I come from the same generation and truth be told we started watching wrestling around the same time. We both grew up watching the “Attitude Era” that the older crowd complains needs to come back and get rid of the “PG era”.
AJ represents my generation, a generation that was taught through watching WWE to defend yourself and never take crap from anyone. AJ has worked hard to get where she is today. She payed her dues climbed the ladder and more then earned the position of Raw general manager.
Vickie put herself in that situation this past Monday night by going out to the ring and showing AJ disrespect first. As the leader of Raw how do you think AJ Lee felt having Vickie go on international television talking trash about her? Are you honestly going to try to tell me that Vickie deserves respect after the way she has publicly humiliated AJ Lee?
Respect is earned not given Ed, and AJ Lee was justified in her actions based on Vickie’s continued assault on AJ Lee’s ability to lead.
Going out and publicly trashing your boss is uncalled for. AJ Lee is not now or has she ever been “unstable”. AJ is a person who has had to deal with a verbally abusive boyfriend in Daniel Bryan who then had the guts to ask her to merry him after humiliating her by breaking up with her on television. AJ is now finally finding her strength and courage again. AJ is a talented, smart women who as Raw GM has earned respect but still fights every single day to receive it.
I ask you to watch this video of Daniel publicly breaking up with AJ after Wrestlemania. Are you seriously going to defend Vickie who was already Smackdown GM once after watching this shocking video?

My partner here at DTRT Wrestling News, Trevor, was curious about what I thought of his post dealing with what happened on Raw this past Monday between GM AJ Lee and Vickie Guerrero. So instead of commenting on the post, I thought I should lay out for everyone exactly what I think.
I’m not sure Trevor is going to be happy with me!
What you may or may not know about Trevor, and for our friends and affiliates who run AJ fan sites – please forgive me, but Trevor has got to be the biggest AJ fan in the entire world! Ask him what his ringtone is – never mind I’ll tell you, it’s AJ’s entrance music. Look at the number of posts with Trevor’s name and see what percentage of them that has AJ as the subject matter. I love how much Trevor enjoys the “Crazy Chick”!
That said, where does the GM of RAW, who hasn’t even gotten her feet wet yet, get off attacking a well established professional like Vickie Guerrero? Check out this post and you’ll see what I think about Vickie.
EXXXCCCUUUSSE ME, but is there no respect from any of the younger generation for those who paved the way for them. First it’s CM Punk and his cowardly attack on Jerry “The King” Lawler, and now Miss Skippy pummels a member of the legendary Guerrero family.
I’ve been a fan of AJ and thought she was doing a pretty good job as the Raw GM. However, I have been disappointed that she didn’t address the Punk / Lawler issue and now this. Kinda strange there’s a lot of old vs young scenarios here and since I’m the “old” one of this site, I’ll be interested to see how my young sidekick Trevor takes up for the “sweet and innocent” AJ after this – who knows maybe he’ll send her a new teddy bear that needs tucked in.

The self-professed “Queen Diva” didn’t receive any royal treatment from Raw General Manager AJ Lee. The two have never seen eye to eye after all. Vickie views AJ Lee as a mentally deranged “child”. Vickie who is a former manager of Smackdown sees Mr. McMahon’s choice of the younger and popular AJ Lee as a slap in the face of the general manager position.
Last week Vickie told Michael Cole while joining him on commentary that she has the maturity and experience while AJ Lee needs to go home tuck in her teddy bears and kiss her mom goodnight.
During this week’s Raw which was held in Milwaukee Wisconsin Vickie Guerrero kept her promise made to Dolph Ziggler on Smackdown and very impatiently waited for the Diva’s match between Layla and Natalya to conclude.
After continuing to voice her outspoken opinions of the Raw GM, AJ Lee made her way down to the ring (skipping of course) for what many thought was to confront Vickie. However after grabbing the microphone AJ Lee said nothing and instead gave Vickie a look which is often seen right before we see AJ go into “Crazy Chick” mode. Which is exactly what happened.
AJ proceeded to slap and physically attack Vickie Guerrero. Actions that will most likley not set well with the WWE board of directors. Is it possible that Vickie might get her wish and become the general manager of Raw?

As summer winds down, WWE finds itself facing more questions than ever before. What, exactly, is WWE Champion CM Punk planning next following his controversial attack of Jerry “The King” Lawler last Monday on Raw? Will he, in fact, take up on John Cena’s offer for a title match at Night of Champions in Cena’s hometown of Boston? And what will Triple H have to say when the vanquished King of Kings makes his first public appearance since losing to Brock Lesnar at SummerSlam?
Here are five things to watch out for on this week’s Raw.

.com has learned that Rey Mysterio suffered a concussion at the hands of The Miz this past Sunday at SummerSlam. (RESULTS)
According to one backstage source, WWE personnel “suspected [a concussion] because he hit his head.” The following day, precautionary impact testing was conducted and “showed that [Mysterio] is below baseline, which means he sustained some sort of concussion,” the source explained.
WWE.com has confirmed that the San Diego native is not medically cleared to compete at this time. Mysterio did not appear on last Monday’s Raw, and has been removed from all events at least through this coming weekend. (MYSTERIO’S SUPERSTAR PROFILE)
During The Awesome One’s successful Intercontinental Title defense at STAPLES Center in Los Angeles last Sunday, the champion executed a brutal sit-down powerbomb. The maneuver snapped Mysterio’s head against the canvas, which likely caused the trauma and no doubt paved the way for The Miz’s victory. The self-proclaimed “Most Must-See Champion in WWE History” has had his awesomeness questioned in recent months, but The Miz reasserted himself with this dominance over the 619 specialist.
According to WWE physician Michael Sampson, Mysterio “had the first [test] on Monday, which showed us that he was below baseline. The physical exam was normal, but neuropsych testing was below normal. That’s the beauty of neuropsych testing,” he explained. “Based on reaction time and memory, we can measure on a computer, and he was below his baseline. That saves [Mysterio] from causing further injury from the concussion.”
It was also confirmed that Mysterio will not return to in-ring action until he is at baseline and passes an exertion test. To be determined at baseline, Mysterio must pass the aforementioned impact/neuropsych test later in the week. Only then will he be permitted to undergo exertion testing.
WWE.com’s source estimated that the former WWE Champion “will probably be taking [the impact test today] if he’s still symptom-free, or later on this week.”
