- As previously noted WWE are looking to do a Cody Rhodes vs Booker T angle, marking Booker T’s return to the ring. WWE is now officially advertising Booker T as challenging Cody Rhodes for the Intercontinental Title at the December 29 live event in Buffalo.

It’s not clear if Booker’s return will be a permanence thing, but the feeling is that he’s just being used to put over Rhodes.

- The reason JR’s segment was cut from Monday’s Raw is that The Walt Disney Company were contractually guaranteed that no scheduled segment featuring The Muppets would be cut from the program, meaning WWE had to cut time from elsewhere. Jim Ross was not immediately aware of why he wouldn’t be featured.

- As noted yesterday TNA star James Storm suffered a concussion at last week’s Impact Wrestling tapings. It is now believed that he’ll need up to 2 months off.

“Had a ct head scan and a MRI yesterday,” Storm wrote on Twitter. “Hate when doctors just come in and give you a look. Just tell me the bad news. Cowboy up!!!”

“Confirmed…. TV tapings in Macon the cowboy sustaind(sic) a concussion. Doc says 6-8 weeks. But that’s for a normal man.”

Readers noted that Storm had appeared at house shows after the incident. This is because he did not see a doctor until the Monday.

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