As we discussed in the Elite section of PWInsider.com over the last several weeks, there's been talk of taking the lesbian overtones of AJ Lee vs. Paige to the next level in creative meetings to the point it's been pitched to the talent involved.

Mick Foley noted he has an offer to do a podcast and is considering it. I'm surprised it's taken that long for this to happen.

SeekingAlpha.com featured a piece on WWE "being at the crossroads" saying it remains to be seen whether the company will ever get their stock traded at a higher price than it currently is. Well, you could say that about any stock, right? You can read the piece at this link.

Yesterday's announcement of a TV deal with FOX Sports Latin America led to some after-hours trading of the WWE stock last night. They were up 2.26% to $14.95 at one point last night.

Brock Lesnar was the guest for the sit-down interview with Michael Cole yesterday, pretty much pushing his storyline against John Cena.

WWE released the following "unseen footage" from the Cena vs. Lesnar brawl that highlighted Monday's Raw:
