-The WWE Smackdown holiday tour has a stop in Detroit, Michigan tonight at the Joe Louis Arena. The advertised lineup is dated, as Mark Henry vs. Big Show in a cage is listed as World Hvt. Championship match. Randy Orton vs. Wade Barrett in a street fight is also advertised. Henry is listed on the talent roster on the WWE website, and at last check he would be making his scheduled dates despite nursing a groin injury. However, I would be surprised if he actually wrestles.

-The WWE Raw holiday tour continues tonight in Pittsburgh, Pa. at Consol Energy Center. The show will feature C.M. Punk, John Cena, Kane, The Miz, Air Boom, and WWE Hall of Famer Jerry Lawler.
