WWE.com is saying that Jey Uso suffered more damage to his knee last night when he was hit with a chair by Goldust.

Following up on their announcement on Raw last night, WWE has invited the first openly gay football player drafted by the NFL, Michael Sam, to appear at Raw next week in Baltimore, MD.  Sam was cut by the St. Louis Rams over the weekend.  WWE posted the following letter:

"Exhibiting class and dignity rarely shown in professional sports, Michael Sam, WWE invites you to next Monday's Raw to speak of your struggles to succeed, lessons you have learned along the way, the courage it takes to be yourself and the prospects of your continued journey.

You are a role model, who, by example, can encourage everyone to stand up and openly be themselves.

Signed,
Stephanie McMahon
CBO, WWE"

CBO is "Chief Brand Officer", Steph's official WWE Title.
