NOTES

STAR WARS WEEK EASTER EGGS

Eagle eyed Star Wars fans might have noticed one or two very tiny Easter eggs during the past few shows. Obviously The Shockmaster represented Star Wars tonight with the Stormtrooper helmet (that's missing the mouth part) and on the NWA on WWE 2K show, Jade was rocking Rey's hairdo from The Force Awakens.
