We have some backstage notes to pass your way about RAW this week. These come via Mike Johnson of PWInsider.
— Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch were both not on the show because they are on vacation. The segment involving Seth and Braun Strowman was filmed last week and was inserted into the show.
— Several wrestlers from Wildkat Wrestling in Lousiana were backstage at RAW working as extras.
— Johnson says that he has heard a lot of praise backstage for how hard Tucker Knight of Heavy Machinery has been working to try and lose weight.
— Johnson notes that RAW was one of the “smoothest running shows in several weeks with very little changes”.
— One of the few changes was the Viking Raiders were originally going to squash two local jobbers. Instead, they were added into the tag team turmoil match.
— Even though he said on social media that local flooding kept him from RAW, Drake Maverick was apparently backstage for the episode.
