Laurinaitis' "Mistake" on Raw

Tonight on Raw, John Laurinaitis announced that he had re-signed Big Show to a contract on Saturday, which would have made him a WWE superstar on Sunday night.

The Raw announcement was either an error on Laurinaitis' part, or a case of WWE not following its own logic, as Big Show should have been fired due to his involvement in the Over the Limit main event.

Final 5/18 Smackdown Rating

This past Friday night's edition of WWE Smackdown, which was the go-home show for the Over the Limit PPV, finished with a 1.8 cable rating and took in an average of 2.803 million viewers. This is up slightly from the previous week's 1.72 cable rating.

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.

Nick attended New York University and graduated in 2001 with a degree in Drama.

Nick first entered the internet wrestling community back in 2004 when he became the co-host of The Voice of Wrestling Radio Show. From there, Nick made the transition from radio personality to editor when he began working with WrestleZone in 2008.

Nick is a member of two Off-Broadway theatre companies, Another Urban Riff, and the Drama Desk Award winning Godlight Theatre Company. Nick has appeared in over a dozen Off-Broadway plays since he moved to New York City, and has shot several short and feature length films. In 2010, he completed principle photography on a film titled "How to Score Your Life," which also features TNA Knockout ODB.

Inspiration in his life has come from many people including his family, Woody Allen, Steven Spielberg, Jack Nicholson, The Beatles, and of course, Lassie.
