— This week on WWE Raw, Batista made a surprise return to television, coming to the aid of Triple H to fend off a beatdown from the Legacy. Batista had been out of action for several months due to injury and returned way ahead of schedule. The Animal recently approached WWE officials and told them he was ready to return immediately. He has been working out at FCW in Tampa to shake off any ring rust.

— DH Smith has bleached his hair blonde. He’s rumored to join Legacy upon his return to television.

— Shawn Michaels is reportedly looking to start winding down his illustrious in-ring career after next year’s WrestleMania. While he would likely still wrestle after that on a very reduced schedule, he is looking to stop wrestling full-time next year and wants to spend more time with his sons as they grow up.
