Eva Marie worked the (stateside) 10/12 WWE live event, so it looks like we're going to be seeing her wrestle on a regular basis.
Bray Wyatt is said to have hurt his leg at a recent live event. He was helped to the back after a bump into the rail. It's pretty worrying how many WWE wrestlers aren't active for one reason or another. I think they need to evaluate some things.
Update: Wyatt stayed in his rocking chair on the 10/13 event, using Harper and Rowan as support as he walked to the back. Hopefully this doesn't derail him too badly.
James Storm wants a reality show. I'd probably watch it. He's quite the character.
Everything else from yesterday is after the break.
The most recent Abu Dhabi event featured Sami Zayn vs. Bo Dallas and
Santino Marella vs. Brad Maddox. I'd be a little surprised if Maddox
became a regular wrestler, but they definitely want the other two
working the main roster at some point.
Tyson Kidd worked a live event on 10/13. I want to see this guy on TV. If they spaced out appearances by top stars some more, they could totally use him.
For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. TNA could definitely use a change of the guard in some areas in order to be in a better financial position.
2. Honestly, I feel it's really ridiculous to receive a refund because you didn't like how a PPV ended. If there's an unfortunate unplanned circumstance like Over The Edge or Victory Road '11, I can see why it would be justified. But by no means is any fan "entitled" to a story going exactly how they want it to. Personally I think WWE should consider playing hardball with the cable companies who caved in to the complaints. WWE doesn't have to give them WrestleMania after all.
3. I think it's pretty funny to look back on that character now. It reminds me a bit of Damien Sandow.
4. I know MVP is tight with John Laurinaitis, so that likely had something to do with it as Ace was the VP of Talent Relations at the time. I seem to remember there being something where MVP was in OVW at a time when they were less militant about owning a wrestler's name (which is how C.M. Punk made it through the cracks).
5. I don't think Bischoff/Creative is exclusively to blame here. They've had to deal with exits of a lot of people both in front of and behind the camera and that's had an effect on things. Also, Angle went to rehab and Spike insisted on bringing in the MMA names. Add all that to them being sort of "stuck" on the path of Aces and Eights vs. MEM with Bully as the top heel and Hogan being a big part of the show and it adds a lot of difficulty to booking anything passable.
