F4Wonline.com notes that both Vince McMahon and Kevin Dunn were not at last night's WWE RAW in Indianapolis as they were working on Tough Enough in the Orlando area. While Triple H did not write last night's show, he was in charge and ran things.

For this Sunday's TNA Slammiversary XIII PPV -- the same event that as of now has no main event -- it appears that it will not have the originally scheduled Wolves vs. Dirty Heels tag team title match finals, originally scheduled to be the fifth match of the best-of-five series. Wolves' member Davey Richards is booked for a show at Arena Mexico in Mexico City for the All Elite promotion Sunday where he & Volador Jr. are in the main event against Bobby Lashley & Rush. That also means Lashley would be out for Sunday's show as well.

*WWE United States champion John Cena & Dolph Ziggler vs. Kane & King Barrett. *WWE NXT champion Kevin Owens vs. Finn Balor *Brock Lesnar vs. Kofi Kingston. *Neville vs. Chris Jericho. *New Day vs. TBA. *WWE Divas champion Nikki Bella vs. Paige vs. Naomi. *Lucha Dragons vs. Los Matadors. *Cesaro is also appearing.

Updated card for the July 4th Network special.

Monday's episode of RAW averaged 3.670 million viewers, this was down from the previous week's 4.113 million average. The first hour of Raw averaged 3.594 million viewers. Hour two drew 3.606 million viewers. The final hour of the show averaged 3.812 million viewers. RAW scored a 2.63 rating, down from a 2.83 rating last week.

One person who’s been notably absent on WWE television over the last several months has been former Money in the Bank winner and World Heavyweight Champion Jack Swagger. Apparently Swagger’s morale has been getting worse during his time off, and it’s getting so bad that he’s considering leaving WWE very soon if things don’t turn around for him. Swagger hasn’t been involved in anything significant since his feud with Rusev ended last year. Every now and then WWE will bring Swagger back for a random one-on-one match with the “Bulgarian Brute” which Swagger will, of course, lose. When WWE signed Swagger to one of their developmental territories back in 2006, their plan was to eventually have him be the new Kurt Angle. At that time, Angle had just left WWE and joined TNA. WWE felt a need to replace him, and Swagger was their man. Even though he had the amateur wrestling credentials to do so, he didn’t have the in-ring ability or personality that Angle had, which, unfortunately, made WWE hesitant to keep him in the main event scene after he won his first World Title in 2010 ... It’s unlikely that Swagger will go to TNA given the current state of the company, and it’s extremely unlikely that he’ll end up going to Ring of Honor. A career in MMA may be the best possible move for Swagger. There’s a chance that WWE will be able to convince Swagger to stay, but if Swagger is too hard-headed about it, it’s very likely that, because he’s not a top guy, WWE will just let him go.

In an update, Dave Meltzer mentioned on the latest episode of the Wrestling Observer Radio that Kidd is having surgery on Wednesday. He would go on to say that the injury is just like Stone Cold Steve Austin's and Edge's neck injuries. Kidd is expected to be out of action for the next fourteen months.

"Kevin actually reminds me of one of the older wrestlers of the late Seventies, some of those guys that didn't have the build, but they would scare you if you met them at a bar. What hooked me about him was that I was watching a match of his on NXT and I found myself disassociated with being in the moment, all of a sudden I started watching him and he made me believe again. I watched real close, and there were no holes in his boat – his punches, his kicks, everything he did looked like it was killing the guy, which it probably was. He caught me with my guard down and he made me a believer again, he hooked me. He's got that look, man; that demeanor and that swagger."

Maybe while @WWENoble is healing up I can step in with @WWEMercury to help out @WWERollins? How does BJ Security sound? #WWE #Raw

Some other sheet news includes:

• Speculation regarding an upcoming big GFW announcement may be TNA-related.
• Also TNA is expected to make a big announcement very soon and was hinted to be very bad news. Management is making sure nothing gets leaked early regarding this announcement.
• According to rumors, cocaine use has become a big problem within the WWE's lockeroom. WWE can't do anything about it because the Wellness Policy isn't catching people due to how quickly it leaves the system.
