Here is what is confirmed for RAW tonight:
– Ric Flair’s farewell address. I’d tape this one.
– Non Title – Chris Jericho vs. CM Punk
– Maria vs. Santino Marella. You read that right.
There were Internet reports of TNA planning to fly a plane with a banner over the Citrus Bowl at WrestleMania. A TNA plane never flew over WrestleMania. Officials were said to be upset with the story on the TNA plane getting out, although WWE officials were aware of their apparent plans long before it broke out. A plane did fly during WrestleMania, but it was for a strip club. The plane flew above the Citrus Bowl with the message “Wooo!” Some in attendance were nervous because so many planes plus a blimp were flying around so close to each other.
Dave Meltzer is reporting that here was talk this afternoon in Orlando of trying to ban WWE from using any pyro on Raw tonight. Local radio show hosts and several politicians have been trying to push Buddy Dyer, the Mayor, who went to Stamford, CT to get Mania, and Orange County Mayor Rich Crotty to ban fireworks tonight.
