Ric Flair's trademark "Woo" is still right there in WWE's signature before programs properly boot up. That's a surprise considering he's no longer with the company and seems destined to sign with AEW at some point. Maybe Vince McMahon will take that "Woo" out of there when that happens.

During the opening crowd pan shots, one well-wishing fan had a sign that read, "Ding Dong! Get Well!". That lovely message of support for Bayley should be echoed by everyone bemoaning the state of the SmackDown women's division. It's a bit of a shambles at the moment.

That, as most will know, was a reference to Seth's theme.
