Backstage News
- There was no producer listed for the John Cena & Austin Theory segment, or Bobby Lashley's segment.
- The OC vs. Maximum Male Models was filmed for WWE Main Event, and was produced by Abyss.
- Carmelo Hayes vs. Akira Tozawa was filmed for Main Event. It was produced by Jason Cade (Jason Seaton)
- As noted, Vince McMahon was backstage and in Gorilla position.
- Live events reports indicated Raw was the highest grossing in Boston history.
- Originally, Rollins' jacket was supposed to be ripped by Logan Paul.
- There was also originally a segment in which a wrestler would throw a drink in another's face during a match on Raw. Throughout the day there were some backstage that heard of the plans and thought that it was a shot at AEW, or a reference to MJF throwing a drink on a child at AEW Revolution. We can confirm, however, that this was already in the plans that were sent to many within WWE even before AEW Revolution went on the air, as much of the creative structure was done by that show.
The segment never ended up happening, however, it was still included in some of the outlined plans as of Monday afternoon and evening. However, one WWE talent theorized that the segment likely was nixed as a result of the AEW/MJF spot.

I'm mostly saying it's dumb for WWE to worry about looking like a ripoff over a drink thrown in someone's face when that has happened enough times that I'm pretty sure it's a cliche in soap operas or something.

2023-03-08 15:56:56 +0000 UTCFair enough. I would love to be wrong about how involved I think Vince is, and just because I’m only noticing something now doesn’t make that enough to go off of on its own. Thank you

2023-03-08 01:49:25 +0000 UTCMan, WWE's that scared of looking like a rip-off? They didn't mind ripping off iMPACT's Claire Lynch bit in 2014, what makes a drink in the face so much worse to rip off?

2023-03-08 01:06:41 +0000 UTCTrying to imagine the twitter weirdo discourse if AEW considered a segment similar to one on Raw and nixed it so no one could admit to watching the other channel
