WWE Pulling Name From TV, Story on Bret Hart’s WWE Return, Punk Plans

— Bret Hart’s RAW return was delayed until February 1 out of the conventional wisdom that “less is more” when promoting an angle of this caliber. While many believed WWE would limit the physical exchanges between Hart and McMahon until their WrestleMania match, that could certainly change, especially if WWE starts to feel the angle is not generating an ideal level of ratings or buzz.

— WWE Diva Maria will likely be kept off television during the airing of her “Celebrity Apprentice” season on NBC.

— With WWE running the New Orleans market for SmackDown! the week after the Super Bowl, CM Punk will be tasked with cutting a big heel promo on the local Saints fans, particularly if the team loses next weekend.
