The Toronto Sun is reporting that RAW will be moving networks in Canada very soon. Here is a portion of an article in today's Toronto Sun:

WWE has scheduled a press conference for Wednesday in Toronto where it will make a "major announcement."

Actually, it may be a series of "major announcements."

WWE will trot out WWE Canada president Carl DeMarco, superstars Torrie Wilson, Ric Flair, Trish Stratus and Edge, one of the bosses, Shane McMahon, and two reps from The Score -- senior vice-president and GM David Errington and anchor Sid Seixeiro.

Hmm, what could one of these announcements be, especially with four RAW superstars on hand?

How about RAW leaving TSN, the network that has been home to WWE's flagship program for so long? And how about it happening soon ... say, July 31?

Sources say TSN and WWE could not agree to a new TV deal. Clouding things for TSN was its deal to air NFL Monday night games -- 18 of them this season -- with coverage beginning with a pre-season game on Aug. 14. You can read the entire article here.
