Wife of WWE HoFer passes, Interviews with Edge/Warrior, WWE charity, WWE artist speaks, Diva engaged, TNA goes overseas and Questions on abducting Bryan, Gut Check, Kim's Knockout challenge, rebuilding titles' prestige and WWE tape libraries

Princess Salima, wife of the Original Sheik, has passed away. She had been ill for some time and been on life support. Here's more on her life. Pretty cool story of the old days told there.

Here's an interview with Edge, mainly about music. He makes a good point about the heel not having a band play for them. WWE never gives Ziggler his due...

Randy Orton met a terminally ill kid. Way to blow the heel gimmick, Randy. Seriously, though; that's pretty cool.

Artist Rob Schamberger talked about working with WWE. He's really good.

Everything else from yesterday is after the break.

WWE teamed with a food bank in time for Thanksgiving. They do a lot of charity work.


WWE's Kaitlyn is now engaged to PJ Braun. Best wishes to the happy couple.

TNA will be sending some stars to India, though the when and why are not known at the moment. Hopefully, that leads to increased business in the area.

Ultimate Warrior talked about the possibility of going into the WWE Hall Of Fame. It will be interesting to see if that ever happens given the previous bad blood between the two sides.

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. I like the idea from a story perspective. I don't want them to get too sidetracked before the theoretical Bryan/HHH clash at Mania, but I think they could make something like that work.

2. I think they'll be continuing tryouts, but they probably want to sweep the concept under a rug given the "success" rate of the program as far as people making it to the main roster and sticking around.

3. I can definitely see them bringing in at least one new Knockout as part of the angle. TNA is going through something of a rebuilding stage as far as the roster's concerned, with new talents coming in and older talents getting repurposed or released.

4. A world where wrestling titles have more meaning is a world I want to live in. I do think combining the top two championships adds prestige to the new unified title, and hopefully WWE builds up the other titles as well.

5. I always wonder how much demand there is for some of these tape libraries people keep bringing up. I don't see much of a reason for WWE to buy them if they won't make money off them in some way.

More wrestling tomorrow.
