The security crew on Raw who faced Ryback included local wrestlers Byron Wilcott, Luke Hawx, and Matt Lancy.
The Thanksgiving Impact did 1.19 million viewers.
The 11/23 Smackdown did 2.58 million viewers.
The Rock is set for the 1/28 and 2/18 Raw. I suspect he'll be WWE Champion on those shows.
Everything else from yesterday is after the break.
After Smackdown, Sheamus beat Big Show via DQ.
Mick Foley gave an endorsement to Dean Ambrose.
For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. They do make a point about it being based on real life, but all in all I was reminded of the Attitude Era when it happened. A lot of people who want the Attitude Era and ECW back either weren't around for or overlook the more controversial stuff. People complain that the product is too squeaky clean and that heels can't get real heat anymore, and then complain when something does push the envelope. It's hard to take someone's opinion seriously when they seem to complain about just about everything.
2. He works to make things like Ring Ka King now. I also think we'll see him pop up in the Aces and Eights angle and agree that it's like he got kicked out of his own company.
3. I definitely wouldn't rule out some more on-the-road tapings. It's generally pretty well received when they leave the Impact Zone.
Nothing to add to 4. Their theory makes sense.
Nothing to add to 5, other than WWE sees them as THE two top guys and wants to keep their appearances special so we don't see them on Smackdown much.
More wrestling tomorrow!
