Big Match Annouced for RAW
WWE held a press conference earlier where Shane McMahon announced that RAW and SmackDown for next week would be moving to the Staples Center in Los Angeles. During the conference, they played down the idea of going after Kroenke Sports and The Pepsi Center legally. While not stated at the conference, WWE needed to move the Tuesday tapings due to it being logistically impossible to get the production stage and everything else from Los Angeles on Monday night to Colorado Springs in time to tape. Tickets went on sale tonight at 8PM EST.
