For those who always ask me about pay-per-view streams, I’ll throw this out there with the WWE Royal Rumble pay-per-view tonight. We are not affiliated with this website at all but I use FightsJunkie.com. Basically you sign up for an account, make it ‘elite’ (it’s like $15 or something for the entire month – the WWE Network, all PPVs (WWE, TNA, UFC, all NFL games (during the season) on Sunday, etc.) and you get a HQ Quality stream. It works every time for us and never skips. Again, we’re not affiliated with the site but I always get asked so here you go.
-- WWE tapes SmackDown tonight in Norfolk, VA. Edge and Christian will appear again, and Dean Ambrose, Roman Reigns, Kane, Bray Wyatt, and Rusev are advertised.

Bryan was put in control of RAW for the night with the Authority out of power, while Slaughter was part of a segment in which Rusev and Lana had to recite the Pledge of Allegience. Instead of doing so, they tried to bully Slaughter until Jack Swagger and Zeb Colter came to the rescue and Swagger attacked Rusev.
-- The infamous Anonymous GM made his return on RAW. After the main event, the tell-tale chime occurred, prompting Michael Cole to go to a podium with a laptop. Cole read a message from the Anonymous GM which said, “Forgive me for interrupting this joyous celebration. This party is over. Next Monday, Cyber Monday, order and discipline return to Monday Night Raw.”
-- It was revealed on RAW that New Day–Kofi Kingston, Xavier Woods and Big E–will make their return to RAW (and debut as a group) next week. The group has been teased over the last several months and went through a few different names during that time.
