- This week’s episode of WWE Monday Night Raw drew a 3.1 cable rating on the USA Network.

- The Federal Election Commission has ruled that Linda McMahon violated election laws during her 2010 campaign by appearing in a WWE commercial for the Make-A-Wish-Foundation. It’s been decided that no action will be taken, but it could be something her opponents pick up on.

- As part of the promotion for the ESPN E:60 profile on Scott Hall’s drug and alcohol addiction it’s been revealed that WWE have spent “in the six figures” to get Hall help through various rehab stints.

“It’s the most amount of money we’ve spent on anyone,” says Stephanie McMahon.

“I just want Scott to get help and to decide for himself that he needs help. It makes me sad. I don’t want anybody to pass away prematurely or otherwise really. Scott was an incredibly talented performer, larger than life, charismatic. He’s a father, he’s a friend. I’m sure he means a lot to a lot of people and it would be a shame for him to pass away.”

On the WWE Wellness Policy McMahon notes:
“In addition to that substance and abuse program, we also have cardiovascular testing, we do blood checks, we do physicals, we do concussion testing akin to the NFL. We’re really about maintaining the health and well-being of our superstars because without our superstars we don’t have a business. The superstars of today — they’re businessmen. They realize the healthier they maintain their bodies, the better they are going to perform, the more money they’re going to make. They’re more about playing with their iPads and gaming devices than they are about going out and hanging out at the bars.”
