-WWE Raw takes place tonight at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Mohegan, Conn. The special guest host is Jeremy Piven of "Entourage" fame, and he's teasing a co-host that has appeared in The Hangover and also appears in his new movie The Goods. Ed Helms of "The Office" and Ken Jeong both fit that description.
-The only match advertised for Raw is Triple H vs. Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase in a handicap match.
-The advertised dark match is Hunter and John Cena vs. Randy Orton and Big Show. We are looking for correspondents who attend tonight's show and can pass along the dark match and WWE Superstars results. If you can help file a report, please contact me at dotnetjason@gmail.com.
-The WWE Smackdown/ECW crew is in Reading, Pa. The only advertised matches listed on the arena website are a 16-man battle royal with the winner facing C.M. Punk for the World Hvt. Championship, and Christian vs. Tommy Dreamer for the ECW Title. Obviously, the title has changed hands since the advertisement was posted. Jeff Hardy did not appear on the house show events this weekend and is not advertised for this show, so all bets are off as far as what the new lineup will look like. It's worth noting that Hardy is advertised for tomorrow night's WWE Smackdown television taping.
-"Superstar" Billy Graham is auctioning the jacket he wore to the 2004 WWE Hall of Fame. Fortunately, he has yet to blame his frustration with Vince McMahon for selling the jacket. The bidding starts at $750 at ebay.com.
-The second season of Brooke Hogan's "Brooke Knows Best" will air on the Much More network in Canada beginning Aug. 23. [Thanks to Devin Cutting of ProwrestlingEvents.tk.]
-WWE Hall of Famer Roddy Piper and TNA's Matt Morgan are scheduled to appear on the Monday Night Mayhem radio show tonight from 8:00 to 10:05 ET. For more information, visit the Mayhem Myspace page by clicking here.
-Thanks to Raj Giri for continuing to feature Dot Net in the WrestlingInc.com newsfeed.
-The following matches are listed for the 10 p.m. airing of the AWA on ESPN Classic: WT Jones vs. Brad Rheingans, Mike Braham vs. Col. DeBeers, John Pistulka vs. Sgt. Slaughter, George Anderson vs. D.J. Peterson, Mike Braham and Steve Bergh vs. The Texas Hangmen, Psycho vs. Rock-n-Roll vs. John Nord, Mean Mike vs. Russian Brute vs. Nikita Koloff, Larry Zbyszko vs. Curtis Hughes vs. The Trooper, Johnnie Stewart vs. Killer vs. Flapjack Norton.
