WWE will tape Smackdown and Main Event tonight in Wichita, Kansas. Cesaro will be challenging WWE Intercontinental champion Dolph Ziggler on Smackdown.

This week's WWE NXT will feature:

*NXT champion Adrian Neville vs. Titus O'Neill.
*The Ascension vs. Jason Jordan and Ty Dillinger.
Tyler Breeze vs. CJ Parker.
*The Vaudevillains vs. Wesley Blake and Buddy Murphy.
Sasha Banks vs. Bayley.
*Also appearing are Hideo Itami, Sami Zayn, Sasha Banks, Mojo Rawley and more.

Seth Rollins will be appearing at this Thursday's NXT taping in Winter Park, FL.

Announced for the Hell in A Cell Kickoff this Sunday was MizTV with Damien Sandow as the guest. Paul Heyman will be appearing on the PPV as part of the expert panel with Booker T and Alex Riley as well.

Matys Marco sent the following....WWE Main Event will debut on German free TV. ProSieben Maxx announced via Twitter that for the first time ever, Main Event will air on on German free TV on 11/22 at 10:50 PM, followed by the complete version of WWE Smackdown. It'll be a kind of a TV special, including exclusive footage of WWE's upcoming live event in Frankfurt, Germany. Whether WWE Main Event will run on a weekly basis here remains to be see. Around WrestleMania XXX, a new TV era began in Germany as Pay-TV platform Sky lost their TV rights to the free TV networks Tele 5 (which airs Raw every Thursday) and ProSieben Maxx (which airs SmackDown every Saturday - NXT airs exclusively on Pay-TV channel ProSieben FUN) combined with the Netflix-esque VOD service Maxdome, where all WWE PPVs air live while the weekly WWE series are available as a second broadcasting offer. It looks like so far WWE made the right move as the WWE brand has been growing here with Raw getting especially good as ratings have risen to the area of 250,000 - 290,000 viewers.

Since we received a few emails asking where he was last night, Ric Flair was never scheduled for last night's Raw taping.

WWE live events on 12/13 in Wheeling, WV and 12/20 in Sioux Falls, SD officially go on sale this weekend.
