TONY KHAN MEETS SHANE MCMAHON IN ARLINGTON

- AEW President Tony Khan has met with Shane McMahon this week in Arlington, Texas, reports the @WrestleTalk X account. There was even proof of the meeting as the account published a photo of the two in a boardroom, with Khan sitting on one side while McMahon was standing leaning on a chair across him. McMahon has expressed interest in appearing or doing something for AEW and Khan previously said that he respects Shane both as an executive and as a performer, although he had never met him before. Khan left the door open for Shane and said he would be welcome at any time. Shane, who doesn’t own any shares from TKO, last appeared on WWE television at WrestleMania 39 as a surprise, unfortunately blowing his knee in an impromptu match with The Miz. Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful added that the two discussed the possibility of collaborating together in the future.

MARIA KANELLIS TO UNDERGO SURGERY TO REMOVE MASS

- Maria Kanellis-Benne revealed that she will be undergoing surgery soon to remove a mass which was found on her adrenal gland. The AEW and ROH star recently opened up about her medical issue and will now have to be on the receiving end of a retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomy, a procedure which tackles tumors located in the adrenal glands. "I went to my doctor’s appointment today at Rush. The next steps are blood work and a possible 24 hour urine test," she said on X. "From there I will be scheduling surgery for most likely some time in September." Maria added that the mass they found is borderline on what they classify as concerning and it needs to be taken out with a biopsy to follow.

CHARLOTTE FLAIR RESUMES IN-RING TRAINING

- Charlotte Flair has resumed training in the ring and is currently in Orlando, Florida, working at the WWE Performance Center. The 14-time champion tore her ACL, MCL, and meniscus during a match against Asuka in December and underwent extensive surgery in the first week of January. She is expected to be out for up to nine months. A month after surgery, Flair said that she was already ahead of schedule in her recovery as she was working hard with her rehab in a bid to return sooner than expected. "We CLAW with our finger nails for that inch. Cause we know when we add up all those inches that’s going to make the f*cking difference between WINNING and LOSING between LIVING and DYING," she wrote on Instagram along with a video of her doing drills. "I’ll tell you this in any fight it is the guy who is willing to die who is going to win that inch. And I know if I am going to have any life anymore it is because, I am still willing to fight, and die for that inch because that is what LIVING is," she continued."

RAW RATING

- As expected, Monday Night Raw took a hit in the numbers after it was moved to SyFy due to Olympics coverage on USA Network. The show did 1,410,000 viewers on average, down 383,000 viewers from the prior week and the lowest of 2024 so far. The show started with 1,530,000 viewers and it all went downhill from there, with the second hour down to 1,460,000 viewers, and the third hour with 1,240,000 viewers. The third hour number is the least-watched in the history of Raw. Raw scored a 0.51 rating in 18-49, down 0.08 from the previous week. No hourly numbers or cable rankings are available.
