- The preliminary Great American Bash PPV buyrate appears to be coming in at around 250,000 to 275,000 buys which would be way higher than what the company predicted internally. WWE will release an official number soon and if they can hit 250,000 buys on both shows last month, it is almost a given that they will continue with their plans of pushing more PPVs next year.
- The current plans for the U.S title is that WWE will end up somehow end up crowning a new champion over the next few weeks. John Cena would then show up with his own version of the U.S. belt (claiming to be the champion) and it will set up a likely match at Summerslam where the two belts will be unified.
- Gail Kim is out of action indefinitely because she needs to have one of her new breast implants repaired because it was leaking as a result of an earlier match.
