Why Sheamus Missed Raw, Brie Bella Update, WWE Hall of Famer Awarded $1.8 Million

– WWE United States Champion Sheamus missed RAW and will miss tonight’s tapings because he’s currently in Ireland.

– As noted, Nikki Bella and Big Show will be appearing at Thursday’s WWE NXT tapings. Now that she’s “back” with the company, Brie Bella will also be appearing.

– A jury in Minnesota awarded WWE Hall of Famer Jesse “The Body” Ventura $1.8 million in his lawsuit against the estate of the late “American Sniper” Chris Kyle.

Kyle said in his 2012 book that he beat up a man in a bar that he later found out was Ventura. Ventura sued Kyle’s estate for defamation and produced witnesses in court that said Kyle’s story never happened. The jury said on Monday that they couldn’t reach a verdict but the judge told them to go back and try again.
