Ric Flair recently noted on his "Whoo! Nation" podcast that Randy Orton is looking to work a lighter WWE schedule going forward. Apparently Orton is looking for a schedule similar to the one Shawn Michaels worked at one time, where he would work for a while and then have a significant amount of time off

When the crowd on RAW in Brooklyn turned on the women's match it wasn't the fault of the crowd nor the fault of the women, it was the way it was presented. In the promo to set up the match Nikki Bella actually said that wins and losses didn't matter and that these muti-diva matches are pointless. She said the only thing that mattered was the Diva's Title and how she will soon be the longest reigning Diva's Champ of all time. How can anyone be surprised or angry that the crowd gave up on the match that followed when they were flat out told before it started that it didn't matter? Furthermore how can we care about Nikki's long title reign when I doubt anyone even remember the last time she defended it?
I do remember both Sasha and Charlotte making Nikki tap out to win tag matches, a fact that wasn't focus on, nor did it earn them a title match. To get this thing over you have to completely overhaul the way in which it is presented, like they did in NXT. You must focus on each woman in turn with a constant focus on the Championship. Unfortunately because they also have to focus on and promote Total Divas, they have to focus on a large group of women, in particularly the Bellas, so this may be impossible. The Bellas have improved a ton over the last couple years and they are more than capable of having good matches, but in my opinion as long as they are being focused on, this will never feel new.

According to PWI, a new deal was reached between the two companies after the FCC got involved although still a bit hit to ROH since only 79 stations returned back in the deal at the moment. Going to take a while before they get back all the markets.

Bryan is so ridiculously honest to the point he openly criticized Vince McMahon's version of what the "it factor" is." He said he believes the "it factor" is the ability to make people care about you through your wrestling and praised Cesaro, saying that's his favorite wrestler in the U.S. to watch. He said his proudest match was with KENTA. He talked about how he liked being in ROH because ROH needed him to have big matches and help draw, while WWE doesn't need him.
