JR On Smackdown Going Live
NBC Universal and WWE are expected to make an announcement anytime regarding a new TV deal. There has been a lot of talk internally and outside of the company that Smackdown will go live if this deal does in fact take place.
Furthermore, Smackdown would likely move to Tuesday nights in an all-new timeslot for the live show.
Jim Ross posted a tweet today acknowledging the possibility of Smackdown going live on Tuesdays if the WWE and NBC deal goes through as expected:
If nbc/universal keeps @WWE programming w/ a significant right fee increase, I'm guessing Smackdown goes LIVE on Tuesdays on SyFy.

Hulk Hogan To Appear On RAW?
While Hulk Hogan is not being advertised for Monday's edition of RAW from London, there's a possibility he could appear since he's already in town. Hogan is there for the Smackdown tapings the following night in the same building as RAW, so there's always a chance they could use him for both shows.
