Meltzer comments:
Del Rio is still in Mexico (visa issue?), so that's why he wasn't on the show (and probably won't be tonight).
He doesn't know anything yet, but backstage word on Nash was that he didn't pass medicals (but Meltzer went on to talk about why he didn't think that explains what happens - why bill the match, run a promo for it, then change it 5 minutes later if you know ahead of time?)
He thinks having the Smackdown guys on Raw is to both try and help Smackdown house show sales and to try and help boost Raw ratings through the NFL season (speculates they're paranoid about dropping below 3.0). Believes it's temporary.
