Bryan promo footage, WWE live event notes, February comes to the Network, Interview with Bubba Ray, and Questions on Taker retiring, MLK Day, Edge vs. Y2J, and Axel in the Rumble

Footage from Daniel Bryan rehearsing his Raw promo was found online, but WWE has since removed it. It was interesting to see the process of doing a pretape, although nothing done was really surprising.

Darren Young beat Adam Rose at a WWE live event this weekend. I wonder what the odds are of Young coming back as The Bunny. I hope we do see him back in a WWE ring. I'd prefer him as a tag team guy, if that's doable.

Also at live events this weekend, Charlotte and Sasha Banks were on opposite sides of a six-Diva tag. It's good for them to get experience.

Everything else from yesterday is after the break.
WWE has added a lot of Black History Month features on the Network, including Hall of Fame profiles and classic matches. That's pretty cool.

Bubba Ray Dudley talked about his Royal Rumble return. There's a chance he and D-Von return to WWE, but it's by no means a sure thing. I strongly doubt we see "Bully Ray" there, and definitely not getting a main event push.

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. I think that's the perfect place for him to finish his career. I wouldn't be shocked if he ends up facing Sting then. Kane would make sense as his final opponent, but we've been down that road quite a bit.

2. Respect would be acknowledging Booker in Texas and Ron Simmons' accomplishments, both of which would make sense in Black History Month. Pandering would be having a black man go over just because he's black. I would have been fine with them honoring the contributions of black people to the business.

3. I wish they'd cut back on all the questions about why WWE pushes this person over this person and all that. It feels like that's the whole column on many days. I kind of hope it is about Curtis Axel, actually. It should be something important for Fast Lane, but who knows if it will be.

4. Looks like the friend's buying two tickets to see Reigns beat Lesnar.

Nothing to add to 5. I expect Reigns to squash Axel as well.

More wrestling tomorrow.
