Main Event Reax - 1/16/13, Torres' goodbye, TNA PPV update, NXT release, Interviews with Lance Storm/Edge/Corino/Bully Ray, Update on Sin Cara, Smackdown visitors, possible HoFers, and Questions on Punk on the mic, Hogan's restaurant, Madusa, and Ziggler

Main Event:
Good videos to set the stage for the match.

Good match between Cesaro and Orton. Cesaro looked like he was in Orton's league since he lasted so long.

I liked the post-match. Heels being heels.

Pretty good tag match. Yes, the Usos won again. I'm not really miffed. It was a good match.

Everything else from yesterday is after the break.

Eve Torres said goodbye to the WWE Universe. I'll certainly miss her.

TNA will hold every major PPV outside of Orlando for the foreseeable future. That's pretty cool.

WWE has released TAC from his NXT contract. He never even had a match! His attitude on Twitter months back didn't help him at all. I definitely appreciate the guts, but he didn't have much credibility behind it as someone still in training. When a decorated champion like Punk wants a revolution, it means more to WWE.

Lance Storm talked about Jerry Lynn and more.

Edge talked about the Attitude Era and more.

Sin Cara has been cleared to return to the ring but was not used at the most recent TV tapings. Perhaps they're waiting on Mysterio?

Carlito and Funaki were visiting at the most recent Smackdown taping. I wouldn't mind either returning to the company.

WWE is looking to induct either DX or the Kliq into the WWE Hall of Fame. That will be interesting.

Bob Backlund, Kamala, and Bruno Sammartino have all been invited to the Hall of Fame as well. They're all fitting names.

Steve Corino talked.

Bully Ray talked about TNA going to fewer PPVs and more. Smart guy.

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. Punk can tear it up on a mic for sure. I don't know about the best ever, but he's up there. The fact that he's speaking from the heart more so than regurgitating a script is great. He comes across like himself instead of a goofy character.

2. Given what Hogan's life has been like in recent years, I'm betting his restaurant does poorly. And then there will be some kind of lawsuit.

3. I think they missed an opportunity to do something with her. Kaitlyn could stand up for the current Divas' division and gain points as a babyface.

4. I wouldn't mind them pulling some kind of strings to have him go for the WWE Title, taking it from Cena post-Mania. Otherwise, I think I'd have him take it from Sheamus after a brutal match. Big E helps him. Dolph, Big E, and AJ should be some of the top heels of 2013 (alongside the Shield).

Nothing to add to 5.

More wrestling tomorrow.
