We’re told Andrade is still likely to appear on Smackdown despite being booked to win the WWE Speed Championship
While he produced several of the WWE Speed matches in the past, we’ve not heard of Pete Dunne producing them of late.
Tonga Loa and Tama Tonga are not listed as the Guerrillas of Destiny internally, and haven’t been referred to as that on run sheets.
Solo, Tonga and Tama weren’t listed as “The Bloodline” collectively for their match, but we’re told there was no real reason for that.
There were several extras from OVW who were on the show. Luke Kurtis, TW3, Ashton Adonis and Kal Herro all appeared on screen. Angelica Risk and Sophia Rose were also backstage.
