Lots of notes for Raw at MSG *spolier*

[Angryphilip2]

WWE Hall of Famer Nikolai Volkoff is backstage at Madison Square Garden and will be appearing in a segment on tonight's WWE taping

Add Mick Foley to the list of those backstage at Monday Night Raw at MSG. With Saturday Night's Main Event being taped and with WWE taping in Foley's NYC hometown, it stands to reason he'll make an appearance tonight but that's not 100% confirmed. It sure would be funny if he reprised his "Detective Foley" role from the Steve Austin hit and run to track down who Vince McMahon "fathered" tonight. As we noted several weeks ago on the PWInsider.com Elite Hotline, Foley was one of several names that USA Network President Bonnie Hammer had asked WWE to bring back to TV to help the Raw ratings. Other names included the McMahon family, who it certainly looks like will be part of the upcoming storylines after last week's paternity storyline began.

PWInsider.com has gotten a report that former European and Intercontinental champion D'Lo Brown is backstage at the Raw taping in Madison Square Garden. No idea if he's working or just visiting, although my guess is that he's visiting as he arrived with Ron Simmons.

huh, lots of people backstage tonight

Its Iron Sheik not Nikolai Volkoff

 

[Angryphilip2]

Mike johnson is saying that its Nikolai

 

[Bradders]

It was both of them and D'lo wrestled a Dark match and Foley appeared on WWE Idol.

Cool to see all these wrestlers back in WWE, even if it is only for one show and for WWE Idol. Hope WWE signs D'lo Brown. He could really help Smackdown

This should be in The Spoilers thread.

I bet D'Lo is just to visit friends, its unlikely he will be on the show. If WWE does sign him the my best bet is for him to go to SD! or ECW.

That would be funny! I'd love to see Foley back.

Seems like Vince is listening to USA and quick aswell!
