Backstage reports out of last night's edition of Monday Night RAW indicate that the morale behind-the-scenes is down as the WWE deals with the fallout of CM Punk quitting and the fact that John Cena suffered an eye injury over the weekend at live events. Due to these events, a lot of the talent is concerned over how the plans for WrestleMania XXX at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans on April 6 will shakeout.
According to Wrestlingheadlines.com, there was a strange feeling backstage at RAW in Omaha with a lot of the talent unsure of if WWE CEO and Chairman Vince McMahon was able to contact CM Punk. There has been concern that Punk quitting the WWE last Monday won't be reversed as Punk has not answered phone calls or text messages from other wrestlers and has stayed quiet on the subject.
There was also no update on Cena's status as the company is trying to keep the injury quiet. According to Wrestlingheadlines.com, Cena suffered an eye injury during a match with Randy Orton at a live event Saturday and was held out of Sunday's event and didn't appear on RAW last night, though he did make an appearance after the show when the cameras stopped rolling.
With Cena's injury and the status of Punk uncertain, there have been major concerns backstage, Wrestlingheadlines.com reports, that WrestleMania XXX is "falling off the rails" in regards to top talent at the show.
Fans continued to chant for "CM Punk" throughout RAW last night, but no fans were kicked out of the show. According to Wrestlingheadlines.com, the WWE was confiscating "CM Punk" signs at the show.
It was reported over the weekend that WWE held major creative meetings about WrestleMania XXX but according to Wrestlingheadlines.com, the backstage consensus has been that the changes to the plans haven't been showing and that CM Punk will be a huge loss to the locker room since he spoke up for everyone when it was needed.
The WWE had planned on a Punk vs. Triple H match along with a Cena vs. Bray Wyatt match at the biggest show of the year, but with Punk's status in question and the severity of Cena's injury unknown, it remains to be seen what will happen at WrestleMania XXX.
