Rumor Roundup: Backstage Perception Of Jimmy Smith On RAW Commentary, Vince McMahon Upset, More

Here are some of the latest WWE rumors that are floating around.

5) Update On Molly Holly’s New WWE Role

According to Mike Johnson of PWInsider, Molly Holly’s tryout as a producer went well at this week’s episode of RAW. She is going to be brought to additional television tapings to see how she does.

Here is what Johnson wrote:

As PWInsider.com broke yesterday, Molly Holly was at Raw as she may be potentially be brought on board as a Producer.  We are told she was being taken through the paces and will be at additional TVs going forward as the two sides feel each other out.

My Take:

  • I am happy for Molly and I hope that she sticks. She has a lot of knowledge to pass onto the next generation.

4) Vince McMahon Unhappy At RAW

According to Mike Johnson of PWInsider, the opening few segments of RAW ended up going longer than they were scheduled for. This led to other parts of the show needing to get shortened. It also led to an unhappy Vince McMahon.

Here is what Johnson wrote:

The first segments of last night’s edition of Monday Night Raw (MizTV leading into the Beat the Clock bouts) went about 8-10 minutes longer than planned, PWInsider.com has learned, requiring time to be cut from other segments.  As you can imagine, Vince McMahon wasn’t thrilled about that.  Nothing that was slated for the show  cut, ended up cut, but we are told several segments were shuffled around to different points of the broadcast vs. their original placement in order to accommodate time cuts.  

My Take:

  • It always sucks when people get cut for time because others go over. That is the way it goes though and WWE always does a good job of adjusting on the fly.
