Questions on WWE's use of Twitter, Hart staying with WWE, success outside of the business, Be A Star, and ECW, what happened after Raw, Lesnar update, Ryback's No Way Out opponents, Mystero update, more Laurinaitis, and the Raw rating

For my take on the 6/19 PWInsider.com questions:
1. There apparently is some sort of deal between WWE and Twitter. I see why they do it, but at times it takes away from the main product of wrestlers wrestling. Imagine an important part of CSI being over-run with "forensics is trending worldwide!".

2. As they said, I don't think it would be as big of a tide-turner as Vince vs. Stone Cold. Austin having allies would also go against his character of not trusting anyone.

3. I consider UFC another line of work, so add Lesnar to the list. I think Austin's doing well enough in movies, too.

4. Generally it's heels who do bullying things and the good guys stand up to them, so that's kind of the message of Be A Star. I also think having heels in Be A Star talking about how what they do is just a TV show is kind of lame.

Everything else from 6/19 is after the break!
5. Sounds plausible.

After Raw, Cena, Show, HHH and Ryder laid a beatdown on John Laurinaitis.

In something of a spoiler, Brock Lesnar is being advertised for the 8/13 Raw, which is the last show before Summerslam. That adds weight to us seeing him face HHH then.

Ryback's opponents at No Way Out were John Silva and Dan Eckos of NYWC. A lot of wrestlers from that promotion got looks from WWE management. If any get signed, I'll be sure to report it.

Rey Mysterio's suspension will be up on 6/25, so he could be back on WWE TV soon.

In a spoiler on John Laurinaitis, he will be appearing for all events he's still advertised for "by order of the WWE Board".

Raw on Monday did a 3.4 rating, with hours of 3.38 and 3.43. Likely some of those viewers wanted to see where WWE was going post-Laurinaitis.

More news coming up!
