For those who have asked about this, highly placed WWE sources have confirmed the plan is for Raw to air live no matter where it is taping once the series moves to Netflix next month.

So, if and when the company is taping in Europe, Raw will stream live in the United States at the same time, no matter the time zone differences.

The plan is to have the show air live as it happens and then be available via VOD ASAP after it goes off the air.

There will no longer be a taped delay waiting for 8 PM Eastern, so when WWE tours Europe leading up to Wrestlemania 41, those shows would air live in the United States in the afternoon.

Ricochet: Everything I've Done In The Past Helped Set Up A World Where AEW Can Exist. Without Me, There Is No AEW

> "Absolutely," Ricochet said on 103.5 Kiss FM Hot Tag with Brad when asked if he was custom made for AEW. "I'm not saying I'm the sole reason. I'm just saying. If there wasn't Ricochet, there wouldn't be AEW. I'm not saying I'm the sole reason that it happened, but I am saying, what I have done with Ospreay, with PAC, with AR Fox, with Dragon Gate, with PWG, with everything. Overseas. New Japan. Everything I've done in my past career helped set up a world where AEW can exist. I'm not saying it's just me. It's me, it's the Young Bucks. It's Kenny Omega. It's Ospreay. It's everybody. I'm just saying, without Ricochet, there would be no Ospreay, really. You know what I'm saying? All of us guys are passionate and without that there would be no AEW."

The word making the rounds among WWE talents is that Bronson Reed will undergo surgery sometime next week for his ankle/foot injury suffered at WWE Survivor Series.

Reed was injured hitting a Tsunami off the top of the cage through a table.

Reed's injury necessitated Drew McIntyre returning this past Monday earlier than originally planned.

Reed was slated to wrestle Seth Rollins in steel cage matches as part of the company's past-holiday live event week, so those lineups will change in the days to come.

PWInsider.com sends our best to Reed for a quick and painless recovery.
 
I seen a slow motion zoomed in video of Reed crashing thru the table. Yeah definitely one of those freak type of accidents that you'd thought he could get injured like that. It's like ankles kinda got caught on the mat as he was came down.

Amazing he was able to walk out the ring tho.
