Batista’s Return Date, Vickie, Hardy’s Status

— As was reported earlier this week, new details are coming out regarding the lockerroom’s frustration with Vickie Guerrero’s treatment, including concerns about what she was being paid for her appearances. The feeling, however, is that with Guerrero out of the company, there is no reason for wrestlers to bring the frustration to management and risk their favorable job standings.

— The feeling is that Matt Hardy’s return to SmackDown! is in his best interest, given lead writer Michael Hayes’ long-time support for the wrestler.

— Batista’s in-ring return date is tentatively slated for WWE Survivor Series, which takes place in Washington, DC. There was some optimism that he would try to return later this summer, but given reports that he is becoming aware of age’s impact on his body, it appears he is not going to risk returning too early.
