Rob Van Dam will be finishing up his current run with WWE at tonight’s SmackDown taping in Ontario, CA. His current run with WWE began the night after WrestleMania 30. This was RVD’s second run with WWE since returning last year.
Ryback was not on RAW last night & he took to Twitter & sent out a tweet that he is going away for a while to get some stuff fixed & that he has not been himself for quite some time. He ended the tweet with – Ps sorry punk… with a photo of his & CM Punk’s action figures with his standing over top of Punk’s laying flat on it’s back.
The tweet has now been removed. Let it be known that Ryback has in the past joked about being released, so who knows if Ryback is being serious & pulling one over on us again.
If Ryback is really taking some time off & with the return of Big Show & Mark Henry as fan favorite tag team, this could explain the heel turn last night on RAW by Gold & Stardust when they assaulted the WWE Tag Champs The Usos.
WWE Diva Layla accepted the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge by doing it in the style of the movie Flashdance.
