As reported, Damian Priest got heavy praise for his WWE Clash at the Castle performance. We can also confirm PWInsider's report that Drew McIntyre has repeatedly, consistently and often gained praise for working through personal issues.
Pete Dunne wasn't listed internally as accompanying Tyler Bate on Main Event, though Brutus Creed was listed for Julius Creed.
In an update regarding Money in the Bank, there will be some talent talking to media at community events that are planned for that week.
Karrion Kross vs. Xavier Woods was pulled from WWE Raw. We're working to find out why. They'll have a match next week.
If for some reason you thought otherwise, Drew McIntyre's departure is storyline.
As one would expect, we're told that WWE were happy with the Bron Breakker/Ludwig Kaiser camera shot, and it had been planned throughout the day.
When we asked about the number of slips on the ropes, a WWE source chalked it up to the ropes in Scotland, and bad luck. They're not particularly concerned moving forward.
