WWE records Smackdown and Main Event tonight in Lincoln, NE. If you are going to the show and can send a report, please drop me a line.

The Big Show and Natalya will appear on tonight’s episode of Tough Enough.

CM Punk was interviewed by MMA Junkie and he stated the obvious when he said that he thinks his first UFC fight will sell itself, due to the curiosity factor of him getting into the Octagon. You can check it out by clicking here.

The 7/19 episode of Dwayne Johnson’s “Ballers” on HBO did 1.641,000 viewers. As I have said before, I really like the show. Johnson is great on it.

John Cena put over Kevin Owens about their match at Battleground in a video on WWE.com. The video has the date listed as June 19 instead of July 19. Oops. You can watch it by clicking here.

About Becky Lynch’s first match on Raw last night Stephanie McMahon tweeted: “Hell yeah the #DivaRevoution is on fire!!! Congratulations @BeckyLynchWWE on your first match on #RAW!” Triple H tweeted: “It's just getting started #DivaRevolution #WeAreNXT”

Triple H and Stephanie are the driving forces behind the changes in the Divas Division.

Shannon Johnson sent this item. … Dean Ambrose was on a local sports talk show here in Kansas City, MO yesterday morning. He was obviously hyping Raw tonight but also had some stories about working on a movie and even slicing his nipple off during a match. It's about 20 minutes and a fun listen. Here's the link to the archived show.

Jason Aylsworth sent this item. … This week ESPN is doing stories on Athletes granting Make A Wishes for sick children. John Cena will be granting a wish tonight. It can be seen at 6pm Eastern on ESPN Sportscenter, and all Sportscenters after. Also on espn.com. These are very well done and well worth the watch.

Here is this week’s Raw Backstage Fallout:
