Godderz gets acting gig, TNA audience, Interview with Nero, and Questions the end of Bryan vs. Miz, Rumbles then vs. now, HBK vs. Bam Bam, and NJPW World

Jessie Godderz has been cast as the star of an Amazon.com series. So it's presumably possible there will be times he won't be available to work TNA due to that endeavor. I assume they'll cross that bridge when they get to it; he's not really a major part of things to where him missing a few shows will hurt anything.

TNA's audience this week was 303,000, a little down from previous weeks. Next week's episode has been built up to for a while and will be from the Hardy Compound, so maybe that ends the year on a high note for the company. It's possible at least one of the remaining 2016 episodes is a clip show before their next tapings.

Brother Nero talked about DELETIONS and more:- The Hardys have been ridiculously entertaining. It's good to see a different direction in wrestling.

- He's not the only one worried about his health after so many crazy bumps. I admire his resolve, but it's frightening at the same time.

- I'm very glad he's been living clean for six years now. That's great to hear.

- TND sounds INSANE. I love it.

- The Hardys leaving TNA would be a huge hit to the company. They're the biggest stars there.

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. They're definitely going to have to deliver something big. They could just have Bryan "pull a Goldberg" and dominate him in a minute, but they're going to have to make it clear not to expect a return to the Daniel Bryan of years back. I'd like to see Bryan make a call to Samoa Joe to do what Bryan can't and take the IC Title at WM33, but there's no indication of what their plans are at this time.

2. There's less unpredictability and bedlam in WWE period than the "fun" days, although that seems to be changing for the better. I think that's a general thing outside the Rumbles and doesn't have anything to do with Pat.

3. I can't find any record of one ever happening. That could definitely have been something great. I love that kind of dynamic.

4. WWE can afford giving out that much free content to people in the hopes they end up paying for it. NJPW doesn't have that level of resources. So, I wouldn't assume we'll see it anytime soon.

Nothing to add to 5. This has been asked three times recently!

More wrestling tomorrow.
