BIG STORYLINE PLANNED FOR BATISTA

The finish of the John Cena vs. Batista match last night at Extreme Rules was not a big blow-off for Batista because he is going to be working for WWE for a few more weeks, likely through the Over The Limit pay-per-view. A big storyline will likely happen then to write Batista’s character out, for now.

SPECULATION ON MYSTERIOS ATTACKER LAST NIGHT AT EXTREME RULES

There is some speculation going around as to who the attacker from under the ring was at last night’s Extreme Rules pay-per-view during the Rey Mysterio vs. CM Punk match.

Joey Mercury was planned to join the Straight Edge Society and by the look he had at last week’s SmackDown tapings, it was him who did the run-in last night. Reports are coming in now that the attacker was WWE developmental star Alex Riley, who briefly appeared on WWE TV last year. To further this rumor, Riley was confirmed to be at the pay-per-view last night and took photos with fans after the show.

Whether it be Mercury or Riley, we should find out for sure at tonight’s WWE Draft or tomorrow night’s SmackDown tapings.

GOLDBERG TALKS MORE ON HIS RETURN TO WWE

MonstersandCritics.com has a new interview up with Bill Goldberg about his departure last week from NBC’s Celebrity Apprentice. Goldberg was asked about his talks with WWE and had the following to say:

Monsters and Critics: Are you still continuing your relationship with the World Wrestling – WWE – with McMahon? I mean, I read somewhere that your image and your likeness is going to be used in games for gamers.

Bill Goldberg: Well that’s if we can come to a contractual agreement. But what they’ve put forth right now is something that I will not accept. So is it something that I’m striving for? Absolutely not. Is it something that I would like to happen because I’ve got a little boy and it would wonderful for him to walk in the toy store and to be able to pick up a, you know, his – excuse me, like he says, a baby-daddy figure, you know, that would be awesome.

But that is not going to cloud my business judgment by any stretch of the imagination. It’s been a while since I’ve been involved in the business. And I know there are a number of manufacturers out there that would love to get their hands on Goldberg products. And I’m not like anybody else; I’m going to stand my ground and a deal will be done if it’s to my liking and to my liking only.
