WWE Teases Steve Austin as Anonymous GM; RAW Updates

WWE made the first overt teases regarding the identify of RAW’s anonymous general manager Monday, although it was clear from the delivery that the ‘hints’ were meant to be red herrings.

Included in some of the GM’s “emails” were signature “Stone Cold” Steve Austin quotes, including “gimme a hell yeah” and “because the GM said so.” The Austin references scored pops from the live crowd, but there are currently no plans for Austin to emerge as the permanent general manager on RAW.

— Other notes from the show:
As “consequences” for their actions, the Nexus members must wait three months before receiving a title shot.

The “ban” on violent interactions between Nexus and the WWE Superstars has been lifted.

Randy Orton vs. Edge and John Cena vs. The Nexus have been confirmed for next week’s RAW.
