- WWE continued the CM Punk storyline at Friday's RAW live event in Sydney, Australia. It was announced before the show that CM Punk was suspended but Vince McMahon and Punk had reached an agreement that he would only perform on live events and not TV shows. Punk then came out and cut a promo on the McMahon family, among others, before they cut his mic off. This all led to Punk losing to Rey Mysterio in the opening match.
- Jim Ross noted on Twitter that WWE did a very nice $1.1 million gate at the Sydney show.
