- Friday's SmackDown did a 2.01 rating with 3,024,000 viewers.
- In an interview with ESPN.com, Kofi Kingston was asked who his dream WrestleMania opponent would be. "My dream match would be against Ricky Steamboat," Kingston said. "You saw him comeback a few years ago and he still had it. He's phenomenal, and I'd love if he could come back one more time to challenge for the Intercontinental belt. It could be like a student versus teacher type match. For me, being in the same ring as the guys I watched growing up just means so much and that would be amazing to me if I got that chance."
The high flying SmackDown star was also asked about playing video games while he's not on the road and which superstars he plays against. "Big Show, myself, Cody Rhodes, Tyler Reks, and that savage Hornswoggle," he said. "There are a handful of us who form this underground wrestling gamer community."
