First up, a query:
1. I would be downright shocked if anyone from the TNA roster appeared in WWE '13. TNA holds the rights to their appearances in video games.
Arn Anderson and Ricardo Rodriguez talked at Comic-Con.
Hulk Hogan is doing well after back surgery.
For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. That's my understanding of it, but I could be wrong. Lesnar might be opposed to such a schedule.
2. In kayfabe? Vince and Stephanie McMahon, I'd guess Triple H, and other people who haven't been revealed yet and might never be.
Everything else from yesterday is after the break!
3. They still see more value in Orton than Christian. WWE is not about who the most talented wrestler is or who has the best ring work. It's about who they think can draw them more money. They're not trying to appear "legitimate" to smarks, who are in the minority compared to little Jimmies.
4. Here's who makes up the BFG series: Angle- multi-time TNA Champion. I'll give you that one. Hardy- same deal. Anderson and RVD have also been to the mountaintop and in title matches. Here are the rest- Robbie E, who's never been in the title picture. Bully Ray I wouldn't really consider a mainstay in the title picture. Styles used to be Mr. TNA and in the title picture but not so much anymore. The Pope's not a main event mainstay barring one title shot years back. Daniels definitely isn't in the title picture non-stop. Neither is Magnus. Joe hasn't been in the title picture in a good while and Storm was champ for a cup of coffee. While not totally built around new stars, it's hardly a collection of people who've clogged up main events. All that said, I would like to see them not rely so much on guys like Angle and Hardy, but they've generally been used in ways that get over guys like Roode and Storm.
5. Yeah, I wouldn't put much faith in Keller compared to PWInsider.
Mr. Anderson talked about his WWE release, coming to TNA, and the recent changes in TNA. I do like that things are less scripted now.
Jeff Hardy, Rob Van Dam, and Brooke Tessmacher talked action figures and more.
Stephanie McMahon answered questions at the WWE Moms Twitter account, including one about Vickie Guerrero being constantly called fat.
WWE referee John Cone talked about his job. Interesting stuff.
Jim Ross has been confirmed for the 1000th episode of Raw. You've GOT to have him on that.
TNA is considering doing two live event groups so they can run more events. I don't know if that would work out too well. There's also talk of airing the Hall of Fame ceremony before BFG on TV.
Chad Baxter (formerly Derek Foore) and Lincoln Brodrick (formerly Marcus Anthony) have been added to the FCW roster page. Husky Harris' name has officially been changed to reflect his new Bray Wyatt character.
More news tomorrow after Superstars and Impact Wrestling.
