It’s a slow news day so I’m taking it where I can get it, okay?! According to Jim Ross’ blog, Melina isn’t expected back on Raw until January 2009. JR notes that Melina’s recovery is on schedule. It was previously floating around on the ‘net that Melina would be back around Survivor Series time, so we’ll have to wait and see if her return takes place this year or if we’re saying “Happy New Year” before we see our former Women’s Champion. Needless to say, her presence on Raw is sorely missed; Melina really hit her stride before being injured on Draft night.
In a bonus Melina scoop, a few of you e-mailed in to let us know that she was announced for the SmackDown vs Raw 2009 game today. Click here for more.
