Christian talked ahead of a live event.
For those asking if someone's going to replace John Laurinaitis at Over The Limit, that's not the plan as of 5/4.
Alex Silva was chosen for Gut Check by Al Snow. OVW will continue to be a part of the talent pool for that concept. Other new concepts could also hit Impact, which I'm glad to hear.
For my take on the 5/4 PWInsider.com questions:
1. I'm glad to hear that someone else likes NXT. It looks like we're in for some new "Rookies" shortly. No word on who just yet, but I would think that recent dark matches might give some hints.
2. If it was supposed to be the WCW Title, why wouldn't they call it the WCW Title? The belt was supposed to evoke the old WCW Title, not be it.
After the break, I go into everything else from 5/4. Next, a question on Cena at Extreme Rules.
3. Apparently a lot of people (myself included) misinterpreted the reports about Cena.
4. Garett's the "future of wrestling" according to some in TNA. For some reason Dixie and Hulk seem to believe he's more ready for the main event than some of the TNA veterans who've scratched and clawed for years.
5. They pretty much hit the nail on the head. They don't want to be seen as a tawdry "wrestling company" but a PG entertainment empire with superstars and movies and a network. It's not doing so well for PPV buys and ratings, but they're content to stick with it.
Here's the 65th episode of Z! True Long Island Story. I liked the Avengers bit and the Foo Fighters parody. Ryder and Ziggler are already back to Superstars? Ugh.
Finally, the 5/3 Impact Wrestling for a 0.98 rating despite featuring Hogan, Flair, Angle, RVD, Jeff Hardy, the former Team 3D, and Mr. Anderson.
That's all for the 5/4 news. 5/5 is up next. Thanks for reading!
