According to the Wrestling Observer, the decision to remove AJ Lee from the Raw GM job was scripted months ago, sometime back in late August.

The idea then was that Ric Flair would be brought back to the company and either assume the GM role or some other type of power role on Raw. However, with WWE's current lawsuit against TNA, Vince McMahon is being overly careful not to fuel TNA's argument that WWE is attempting to "tamper with talent," so while it has been rumored that Flair might be brought back to Raw this Monday when the show emanates from Charlotte, that is far from a guarantee.

WWE is reportedly being so careful about the whole TNA lawsuit situation that the company won't even allow Gerald Brisco to travel down to Orlando to see his son Wes, so it doesn't appear as if a "WWE Executive is meeting with a TNA contracted talent."

As soon as this lawsuit is cleared up we will finally see Flair. Notice that WWE keeps dragging out their GM storyline. If you remember back a few months ago, Mick Foley announced on Raw that WWE was looking at former WWE champions to fill the GM role. That storyline disintegrated over the next few weeks and then we ended up with AJ. Now we have Vickie, but we also have Vince stating that she is not the GM and her tenure is unknown. I think they want to bring in Flair, but refuse to do so until this lawsuit is over. It seems like there may be some behind-the-scenes whispering that the lawsuit will be settled so they start up a storyline to potentially bring in Flair, then obviously the lawsuit does not settle and they have to change plans. AJ's hiring seemed like a knee-jerk reaction, as did Vickie's. All we can hope is that the lawsuit is cleared up sooner rather than later.

CE where have you been? It's good to see you

I work 10+ hours per day, doesn't leave much time for anything else after coming home, dinner, iron clothes, watch a couple hours of TV, and then bed.

Sprained my ankle three weeks ago and after stress x-rays they determined I had torn ligaments in my ankle. Underwent surgery and had two pins put in my right leg. Can't drive or walk, and my job requires both, so I've been on leave until I can walk again.

Lots of spare time now...:biggrin:
