Big names on next week's Smackdown, HHH stitched up, new match for ROH in Dallas, ROH tryouts coming up, Neville injury update, why we can't see Cena, and the Raw audience

Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman are booked for next week's Smackdown. So, Boston is the next site of Suplex City.

Triple H received six staples after his brawl with Roman Reigns led to him being busted open hardway. Those two are going to do their best to put on a great match at WM32, whether the crowd agrees with the ending or not.

ROH's Supercard of Honor on April 2 in Dallas will feature The Addiction vs. The Briscoes vs. The Motor City Machine Guns vs. Young Bucks to determine the No. 1 contenders to the ROH Tag Team Championship. I'm sure that will get plenty of "Better Than Mania" and "This Is Awesome" chants. Ugh...

Everything else from yesterday is after the break.
ROH will be holding a tryout on April 16 and 17 near Philadelphia. Steve Corino, Brutal Bob, Daniels, and the Briscoes are among the trainers there, and some names will end up working live events.

Neville suffered a fractured ankle against Y2J on Raw, leading to an improvised finish. Jericho went for a quick pin, but only got a two because Neville's shoulder was up. Jericho then shoved the referee in order to get a DQ. That's really unfortunate given how close we are to WM32.

- Neville's injury will not require surgery. At this time, there's no timetable on when we'll see him in the ring again. Neville's been incredible.

John Cena discussed the origin of his famous taunt. I think his brother should get a big royalty check out of it. And I remember Velocity, damn it!

Raw's audience Monday was 3.46 million. That's slightly down from the previous week. This show followed Roadblock and featured Brock, Taker, AND Shane. The audience going into Wrestlemania is tepid.

More wrestling tomorrow.
