We've noted how there are plans for WWE NXT to be "raided" for the upcoming Brand Extension that begins when SmackDown goes live next month. Bryan Alvarez noted on Wrestling Observer Live that while plans are changing, there were more than 6 names scheduled to be brought up from NXT in the WWE Draft.

Sunday's WWE Money In the Bank pay-per-view could end up being one of the most newsworthy pay-per-views of the year. WWE has been pushing the show as the biggest MITB show of all-time with two WrestleMania caliber main events - Seth Rollins vs. WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns and John Cena vs. AJ Styles.

The Wrestling Observer reports that there is once again internal talk about Finn Balor being called up. It's possible his call-up is held off for the WWE Draft in July, but his debut is said to be imminent. There's also plans in the works for The Wyatt Family, Neville and Randy Orton to return in the next few weeks. No word yet on if any of those returns will come on Sunday but The Wyatts have been rumored.

As seen at WWE Money In The Bank last night, Dean Ambrose won the WWE Money In The Bank ladder match and cashed in later that night, pinning newly crowned WWE Champion Seth Rollins to win the belt.

The most recent issue of The Wrestling Observer Newsletter noted that WWE live event attendance in May had dropped from 5,600 last year to 3,900 this year, a 30% decline. Obviously John Cena being out of action this year has hurt attendance. However, it was noted that the "A" and "B" show numbers were roughly identical, even though the "A" shows were headlined by Reigns. The "B" shows were headlined by Ambrose, usually in smaller markets.

"Last month the 'B' shows with Dean Ambrose, that were often in smaller markets, were drawing just as well as the 'A' shows with Roman Reigns," Meltzer noted on last night's episode of Wrestling Observer Radio. "Roman Reigns is drawing really bad. Before he wasn't, but now he is, so now it's an issue. Does that mean that it led to this [title change], or is this just another way to get Roman Reigns more over, because that's been the goal for the last however long? Time will tell."

I guess it took house shows to finally show the WWE Reigns isn't the guy.

He's not a good draw. He's not a bad draw. HE'S THE DRAW.

Roman Reigns has been suspended for violating the Wellness policy.

Heh, and we thought they took the belt off of him just for the ratings...

This past week's RAW rating was the 4th lowest in history and lowest since October 14th, 1996.

You can tell that between Roman suspension and the draft coming up, that they are just coasting along until Battleground is done to get into their new setup.

I'm surprised they haven't went with a Brock-Roman rematch really. The match was great and we didn't get a winner between them. Seems like it sells itself.

Heyman brought up an interesting theory about the Streak ending which he said "Is it me f--king with you or am I telling you something you're not supposed to know?". He suggested the notion that it was actually planned that Taker was to go over at Wrestlemania 30, but Brock, in a shoot, beat down Taker so bad, and hooked Taker's leg in a way, that he couldn't kick out.

He explained that in that case, WWE could not fire Lesnar because he had just beaten the Undertaker's streak and that the only way out of the situation was to go with Lesnar beating the streak. Heyman also mentioned that this explains why Lesnar's music was not immediately played after he pinned Taker and why Taker collapsed as soon as he got through the curtain.

He also confirmed, if the story he told wasn't true, that the only people who knew about the streak's end was himself, Lesnar, Taker & Vince.

Seems like some great trolling by Heyman but interesting nonetheless.
