WWE announced that general managers John Laurinaitis and Teddy Long will swap shows for one week. Laurinaitis will take control of next week's Smackdown television show, while Long will be the authority figure on Monday's Raw. You can read the official announcement at WWE.com.

Powell's POV: The story is that the board of directors is trying to figure out which general manager should control both brands. All that fuss just to have them swap shows for a week? Gee, why didn't the NFL think of this after Jim Schwartz and Jim Harbaugh nearly came to blows following a game between the Lions and 49'ers last season?
