– WWE taped the following matches for tonight’s WWE SmackDown:

* AJ Lee vs. Nikki Bella
* Daniel Bryan vs. Antonio Cesaro
* Bray Wyatt vs. Goldust
* Christian vs. Randy Orton
– Kofi Kingston was recently interviewed by NOLA.com and talked about his crazy Royal Rumble spots:
“The funny thing about it is that a lot of people think that I think about them year-round, and the past three years now, the idea hasn’t come to me until like 12 hours before the event. I don’t put any pressure on myself to come up with anything cool. I approach it like any other match. I don’t know if I’d put one (escape) above another. Like I always say, the greatest trick of all would be to actually win.”
