As seen on WWE television this week, Goldust wrestled a cruiserweight match on RAW and then again on this week’s episode of 205 Live.

Dave Meltzer discussed Goldust’s status on today’s installment of Wrestling Observer Radio and indicated that Goldust will be working 205 Live events moving forward, even though he doesn’t meet the weight requirements and clearly isn’t a cruiserweight. The belief is that any established RAW talent working 205 Live has more chances of bringing in viewership and increasing ticket sales than someone who only works the 205 Live shows.

While speaking to Al Arabiya English, John Cena was asked who’d he like to face at WrestleMania 34 next year and seemingly avoided giving a direct answer to the question by not mentioning anyone in particular.

“Aw, I’m never in the picking business, man. I might have mentioned that on Edge and Christian’s podcast. Don’t play Vince, if you’re not Vince. The best way to love what you do in that respect is to say, hey, here’s what’s going to happen, and then say, ‘Hey, I’m going to make this effin’ awesome.’”

Cena has been off WWE television since Survivor Series and is expected to make his return next week.
