- WWE has had discussions of Booker T coming back to wrestle in a short program on SmackDown against an undisclosed opponent.

Booker T has competed in one match since assuming the SmackDown color commentator position in February. On the June 6 episode of RAW, Booker wrestled his first singles match for the organization in four years, gaining a victory over Jack Swagger via count out.

- Randy Orton's gruesome post-match attack on Cody Rhodes on this week's episode of SmackDown was eliminated from airings in the U.K. After The Viper strikes Rhodes with a rope-hung DDT, the international broadcast cuts to a backstage segment with Christian and Sheamus.
