Cena to miss time?, Gargano update, legend booked in Europe, Bryan note, TNA and ROH audiences, and Questions on J&J Security, Y2J as a surprise, pushing Cesaro, and booking Sting

John Cena is not advertised for a number of Raws and live events in late October and November, so they could be giving him some time to recharge his batteries. That's a pleasant surprise given how often he's used in a big way. Maybe that will shake things up in a positive fashion.

Johnny Gargano is booked in a match for EVOLVE on 10/17 that has his career in WWNLive on the line. Naturally, this is leading to speculation of him being signed to WWE/NXT. He's been really impressive in his appearances there so far. I think with some tweaking he'd be a big asset for NXT and later WWE.

Ric Flair is advertised as the GM for WWE's European tour later this year. That's a pretty cool bonus.

Everything else from yesterday is after the break.


Daniel Bryan was advertised for WWE's upcoming European tour, but no longer is. I wouldn't be too surprised if he ends up going the Mysterio route if they don't clear him soon.

Impact Wrestling drew 275,000 in its first showing and 69,000 for the replay. I'm interested to see if there's any jump after BFG. We don't even know what they'll be airing then.

ROH drew 127,000 in their one showing on DA. I believe they're currently only set to air through the end of November, so we'll see what happens between the two sides.

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. Brock Lesnar happened to them! I'd like to see them as part of the Kane/Rollins feud, but I understand the focus needs to be on the people fighting for the title.

2. It was a bonus for people ordering the Network/attending in person to have a former World Champion appear. It's a bit like having guests in the Rumble; it's OK to have some special surprises here and there. Jericho's had about 52 returns at this point, so it's not as big as it used to be to see him. I'm not too excited for Y2J vs. Ambrose, but hopefully it would give the Lunatic Fringe more momentum.

3. They must not have enough faith in him to push him ahead of other people. They can only use so many people in important roles at one time.

4. I agree WWE needs to change things at a deeper level than "use (insert big name here) more." I guess since they didn't know what else they were going to use Sting for post-WM31, they had HHH go over to try to set up HHH vs. Rock at WM32.

5. Sting's a class act and one hell of a performer. Props to him.

More wrestling tomorrow.
