I've heard Rick Scaia of Online Onslaught's view on the HBK return and the swerve through the Confidential interviews.

OK, so it was a swerve. Thing is, Confidential is now really the 'Work generator' for the WWE, rather than a show devoted to legitimate interviews. I guess it makes sense now that Gene Okerland is the host, seeing as he spread a load of bull on his phone hotline...

So Tough Enough 2 champion Linda will have her first 'live' match on Velocity this weekend. I guess that makes sense, since Maven was put into matches right away too - but poor Nidia still gets to the ring only as a valet...

This week also drove home the fact yet again that RAW is really getting the short straw for new talent coming in.
