WMania Special Preempted in NYC

Several readers have sent in word that this Saturday's WWE Wrestlemania 27 special, which airs on NBC, has been preempted in the NYC market due to New York Giants preseason football. The special will air on 8/14 at 1pm EST instead.

JR on Raw Announce Team

In a new interview conducted for Alex Marvez of ScrippsNews.com, WWE announcer Jim Ross had the following to say about the company's decision to run a 3 man announce team on Raw: "Any three-man team is all about timing and chemistry. All the guys have to have their egos in check. They have to share the load and the storytelling. We're starting to smooth things out a bit. Once everybody gets comfortable with whatever role they're there to fulfill, it will really start to come together."
