This is not the first time this month both Vince McMahon and Triple H did not attend a show on the same night as it was stated that neither was on had for WWE TLC.
It is also said that former Executive Vice President of Talent Relations John Laurinaitis has been running backstage rehearsals and WWE Hall Of Famer Michael Hayes will be the lead producer of tonight’s matches.
The big hook for tonight’s Monday Night RAW is the wedding of Lana and Bobb Lashley.
