By Jason Powell

-WWE Raw airs live tonight from Las Vegas, Nevada at the Thomas & Mack Center. The show will feature the Raw Roulette theme, and Sin Cara vs. Evan Bourne in a make good match is advertised. Plus, WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels will appear on the show, presumably to promote his new show on the Outdoor Channel.

-WWE is also taping the July 4 edition of Raw tonight in Las Vegas. Dot Net's Will Pruett will be at the building and will be providing live updates on the taping for next week's show, so stick around after Raw for ongoing coverage of the taping for next week's show. We are also taking reports from other correspondents who are attending Raw. If you're going to the show and want to help, contact me at dotnetjason@gmail.com.

-The advertised dark match main event is John Cena, Rey Mysterio, and Big Show vs. R-Truth, C.M. Punk, and Alberto Del Rio in a six-man tag match. I wonder if they'll actually go through with that match given that it's a double taping.

-TNA is taping Thursday's Impact Wrestling show at the Impact Zone in Orlando, Fla. tonight. This is the taping for the show with limited commercial interruptions, and will feature a pair of Bound For Glory Series matches, and a six Knockouts tag match. We'll have all the details on the main page shortly. We are looking for correspondents for tonight's taping. If you are going to the show and want to help, contact me at dotnetjason@gmail.com.
