Bunch of recent dirtsheet stuff:

The original idea at least as of a week ago was that Vince McMahon's big return to set up whatever they're doing with Vince and Hunter leading into WrestleMania would take place around Survivor Series. Over the last few days there has been talk that this might be moved forward, perhaps even to as early as the post-Battleground Raw

Plans change, but there is talk of turning Antonio Cesaro babyface. It has been acknowledged that the giant swing is a great spot, but it's also a babyface spot. There was definitely a tease of a turn on Monday's Raw. Haven't seen it at press time, but was told the giant swing taped for Main Event on Brodus Clay was a must-see.

As of this week, for a number of reasons, the idea that Damien Sandow will cash in but fail to win the title may have changed. He may actually get a run with the belt, largely because there are questions about Rob Van Dam's future since he hasn't agreed to a new deal yet (other sources claim he has a deal where he works three months on/three months off—either way, as of now, the feeling is he may not be around for a while after Battleground unless things change). Sandow doing a surprise cash-in and title change may be needed to give Del Rio something to do for a few months. They could have RVD win the title and then Sandow immediately cash in, but the feeling is that this is unlikely since they just did that at SummerSlam with Bryan.

This Sunday, Daniel Bryan will face Randy Orton for the vacant WWE Championship at the inaugural WWE Battleground pay-per-view event. It appears likely that at least one more match between both wrestlers will take place as some people in WWE believe the Battleground finish will lead to a bout at Hell in the Cell on Oct. 27. Regardless of the final outcome, current creative plans call for Big Show to return to the main event scene in a feud with "The Viper" in November and December.
