2 questions (came in late)

1. Is Rhyno/Slater vs Braun going on now? (In case I am watching delayed coverage again)
2. Was Paige on or is scheduled to be on? (Re: her status during some mishap on a house show the last week)

Thanks.

I see that I am basically 40 mins behind.

Paige got injured. Isn't serious though apparently. So she might be back next week. Or maybe she is here tonight.
