NXT PREVIEW

- NXT's momentum is certainly on the up and WWE is looking to make NXT #1 in ratings again for the third week in a row with tonight's episode. Six matches have been announced for the show later tonight, headlined by NXT champion Trick Williams vs Shawn Spears in a non-title match. Tony D'Angelo will defend his NXT Heritage Cup against Nathan Frazer and new number one contenders for the NXT Tag Team titles will be determined in a tag team turmoil match. Sol Ruca battles Arianna Grace in a number one contender's match as well, this time for the NXT Women's North American title, Wes Lee takes on Joe Coffey, and Tavion Heights battles Damon Kemp. Last week's NXT beat Dynamite in both viewership and 18-49 demo.

WWE EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENT OF TELEVISION GONE FROM COMPANY

- PWInsider.com is reporting that Chris Kaiser, Executive Vice President of WWE Television, has been let go from his position yesterday. Kaiser has worked for WWE for the past nine years, starting as Senior Vice President of Television Production, then promoted to Executive Vice President of WWE Television Operations three years later, before getting to his last position in June 2021. The TV veteran's name is seen attached to many WWE documentaries and reality shows over the years and was also a crucial member in the creation of the WWE Thunderdome during the pandemic. Kaiser led the production, operations, and development of WWE's portfolio of original content.

GABLE AND VALKYRIE ADVANCE TO MITB LADDER MATCHES

- Back from the "dead," Chad Gable overcame Bronson Reed and Braun Strowman to advance to the men's Money in the Bank ladder match last night on Raw. Gable pinned the former NXT North American champion after a moonsault for the victory and following the match, the lights went out and Nikki Cross crawled her way into the ring. Gable, however, was smart this time around and bolted out of the ring before the rest of the Wyatt Sicks could attack. He now joins Jey Uso, Andrade, and Carmelo Hayes in the ladder match. Also, Lyra Valkyria earned a spot in the women's Money in the Bank ladder match after she beat Shayna Baszler and Kairi Sane in a triple threat match featuring all former NXT Women's champions. Valkyria pinned Sane with her Nightwing finisher to win. The Irish star advances in the match with Chelsea Green and Iyo Sky so far.

MATCHES ADDED TO MONEY IN THE BANK

- Two new matches were added to the Money In The Bank premium live event for early next month, including a big six-man tag team match. WWE champion Cody Rhodes will team up with Randy Orton and Kevin Owens to take on the Bloodline, with Solo Sikoa, Jacob Fatu, Tama Tonga, and Tonga Loa up for selection. The second match is an Intercontinental title bout with champion Sami Zayn defending against former NXT champion Bron Breakker. A stipulation was also added to the World Heavyweight title match, with Seth Rollins agreeing that if he loses the match, he won't be able to challenge for the title as long as Damian Priest holds it. If Priest loses, then he has to leave Judgment Day. The card is now up to five matches, which has become a standard for most WWE premium live events.

WRESTLEMANIA XL DOCUMENTARY OUT ON JULY 3

- The long-awaited WrestleMania 40 documentary which was supposed to be released a few days after the show, now has a new release date. Titled WrestleMania XL: Behind the Curtain, the documentary will premiere on July 3 and will stream exclusively on YouTube starting at 7PM ET. The documentary promises to show all the chaos behind the scenes leading up to WrestleMania, including the pivoting from Rock vs Roman to Roman vs Cody as the main event following fan outrage, The Rock's heel turn, and more. The original 10-minute running time is now over an hour as WWE added lots of more new footage from the show which led to a big delay in production and release.

BLOODLINE ACKNOWLEDGEMENT CEREMONY ON SMACKDOWN

- Things are going to get interesting this Friday on Smackdown live from Madison Square Garden as The Bloodline will hold an acknowledgement ceremony to welcome Jacob Fatu as the latest member of the faction. Roman Reigns is scheduled to return to the company soon as well and he might have something to say about Solo Sikoa taking over as the "head of the table" in his absence. Fatu made an impressive debut this past Friday and took out Kevin Owens, Randy Orton, and Cody Rhodes in quick succession. The last time Smackdown was held at Madison Square Garden on July 7, 2023, The Bloodline was also a big part of the show, with Tribal Court: The Trial of the Tribal Chief Roman Reigns taking place, continuing the Bloodline Civil War.

PAT MCAFEE MISSES RAW DUE TO FAMILY EMERGENCY

- One half of the Raw commentary team, Pat McAfee, was absent from the broadcast last night which took place from his hometown of Indianapolis, Indiana. According to PWTorch.com, McAfee had to miss Raw after a last-second family emergency, and was replaced on the show by The Miz. Miz pulled double duty as he also wrestled during the main event with R-Truth, losing the World Tag Team titles to Finn Balor and JD McDonagh of The Judgment Day. McAfee hosted his Pat McAfee Show earlier in the day and welcomed Chief Content Officer Triple H and Michael Cole on the show. The show was once again interrupted by a "You Lied" graphic from the Wyatt Sicks. The former NFL star has yet to publicly speak about missing Raw.

SMACKDOW RATING

- Smackdown live from Chicago, with appearances from CM Punk and the arrival of Jacob Fatu, drew 2,336,000 viewers, up 345,000 viewers from the prior week. This was the best number since April 12. In 18-49, Smackdown also drew a big 0.73 rating, up 0.21 from the prior week and also the highest since April 21. The show was second on network TV behind the NHL Stanley Cup Final.
