— The Miz, who made headlines for his Tweets about evading a ticket this weekend, was the subject of additional Twitter buzz for confirming he had lost his voice. WWE Diva Eve and Superstar Hornswoggle jokingly expressed glee at the fact that the chatty Mizanin would be voice-less for their “Tribute to the Troops” flight to Iraq.
“Thank God! Right b4 the flight to Iraq,” said Eve. Swoggle added, “Back on the road, great news that I found out tho is that @mikethemiz has lost his voice. Thank you god!”
— As the Headline Planet WWE SmackDown! Spoiler report confirms, speculation that Rey Mysterio would return to active competition at Sunday’s taping proved false. The idea of a Mysterio return, however, was indeed cemented, as it was announced that Mysterio would wrestle Batista in a street fight on the 12/11 show.
It remains unclear if this indicates Mysterio made the call to delay getting knee surgery or if the street fight will produce a second storyline justification for him to embark on a hiatus.
