First up, a query:
1. I haven't seen anything about Devon's sons Terrence and Terrell going to WWE, or to TNA for that matter. Once Team 3D's run in TNA wraps up, it will be interesting to see if Bully Ray, Devon and/or Terrence and Terrell head to WWE. I'd think the latter would start out in NXT if they were signed.
James Storm was managing Sanada on one of this weekend's TNA shows, so that could be where their TV angle's going. If TNA does want Sanada as a long-term fixture of the company, Storm's someone who can pass knowledge to him.
WWE is advertising Santino Marella and Emma vs. Fandango and Layla for Australia. I'm guessing that's an old advertisement given Santino's announcement and where things have gone for Fandango and Layla lately. I do expect Emma to compete, however.
Everything else from yesterday is after the break.
The Rock talked about potentially returning to the ring, Sting in WWE and more. Rock almost spilled the beans on Brock's next opponent. It's been reported several times Brock's facing Cena at Summerslam. Rock coming back isn't a given. It's up to his movie schedule. As for Sting, I think we could definitely see him face Taker at WM31 if Taker can "go" physically by then.
Bray Wyatt gave an interview promoting Battleground. It's pretty weird to see him in this capacity. I actually don't really like seeing him acknowledge he was Husky Harris and his family, etc. It would be weird if Taker talked about his previous gimmicks in an interview. That eye looks rough. As for Rowan and Harper, Rowan was originally given something of a Viking gimmick. Harper was Brodie Lee on the indies. His look is pretty similar to what he had then. It works well for him, obviously.
Bo Dallas talked about the inspirations for his gimmick and more. I definitely see Kurt Angle's first character in him. Cena makes sense as an inspiration, too. I'm glad Bo and Bray aren't just trying to update their family members' gimmicks. They work better as their current personas. I think Bo needed some fine-tuning when he was on the main roster feuding with Barrett. He was green and his gimmick was very plain. Pretty entertaining interview.
Natalya talked about wrestling Charlotte and more. I'm glad that match was so well-received.
Damien Sandow lost another three matches in one night this weekend. First was a loss to Ziggler, leading to him issuing an open challenge. Adam Rose answered and won via Party Foul. Sandow came out after the next match bandaged up with an ice pack for another open challenge, leading to him losing to Great Khali. Khali won with one chop after Sandow tried to bail. I'd like to think WWE's just using him this way to get a reaction for him getting beat up for writing checks he can't cash, but who knows?
For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. The legal system doesn't move as fast as it does on TV...
2. Ventura thinks he suffered a lot of financial damages as a result of Kyle's story. He's a pretty determined guy and sticks to his guns.
3. I could see him coming back as a cameo at a big event, but he's got his own direction in life now.
4. I do think it probably would have been better if Russo went ahead and came clean instead of trying to injure PWInsider's reputation. That definitely elevated things.
5. The email was sent to Mike Tenay and Taz and related to Russo's job of consulting them in their roles. I don't think it was anything groundbreaking like "the company's going under" or whatever, but I could be wrong.
More wrestling coming up.
