PWInsider is reporting that former ECW World Heavyweight Champion Tommy Dreamer was backstage at this week’s SmackDown tapings in Grand Rapids, MI. There’s some speculation that WWE could be interested in bringing Tommy Dreamer back for the upcoming WWE Brand Extension which is set to kick off next week.
This week on Raw Vince McMahon announced that Shane McMahon will be the commissioner of WWE SmackDown and Stephanie will be the commissioner of Monday Night Raw. It looks like Shane McMahon is making himself right at home on the blue brand as he makes an appearance on this week’s episode.
Shane McMahon will be the commissioner of SmackDown, but his father Vince told him and his sister on Monday Night Raw that they must appoint a General Manger for their respective brands, or else he will appoint one for them.
Shane revealed on Twitter that he has come to terms with the new GM and their identity will be revealed Monday on Raw. Shane McMahon posted the following:
I'm very excited to announce that terms were agreed to today with the new SmackDown GM. The person will be revealed live this Monday on Raw.

This is the fastest I’ve ever seen Vince try to hop onto a cultural trend. He’s usually decades behind.
