Braun on surgery, WWE PPV returning, guests on Raw Japan tour, WWE seeking important global hire, and Questions on Adam Cole heading to NXT, why Jinder is being pushed, Crash's seizure angle, Charlotte's early days in the business, and Walking Tall

Braun Strowman talked about undergoing surgery. It's a shame he's going to be out of action for a few months. He's been one heck of an emerging star.

No Mercy will return on September 24 as a Raw PPV in California. MUCH better than Great Balls of Fire.

Chris Jericho and Hideo Itami are advertised for Raw's Japan shows on June 30 and July 1. If they really want to, WWE can say he signed a new contract with Raw as his previous WWE deal ended after the loss to Owens. It would more or less be true. I hope they match those two up to get Itami ready for a bigger stage.

WWE is seeking a director for global travel project management. That's quite the title, and it will seemingly come with a lot of important responsibilities. Growth outside the U.S. is a big priority for WWE.

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. I think Brooklyn is more likely for the reason they mentioned. That will be a much bigger stage for him anyway.

2. I'm sure a lot of it is due to the Indian connections, but it could also be a bit of them just shuffling some new names into important roles after the shakeup.

3. Mike's got some good points there. Seizures scare the hell out of me on a personal level, but they succeeded in getting people talking about the angle and promotion.

4. She was signed based on her dad's connection to the business rather than having a big pre-WWE resume. She does have an athletic background that really lent itself to wrestling, but she got her start as a wrestler in NXT.

5. I can't really find anything else about his wrestling days. He didn't make a big splash in the business.

More wrestling tomorrow.
