GFW name update, GFW champ south of the border, MYC name unmasked, remembering Connor, Halloween costume, Vince angle correction, OVW helping Cappotelli, WWE-China notes, former ROH Champion canceling dates, Heenan passes away, and Questions on Mania attendance dropping, "revealing" headlines, Shane's wrestling abilities, WWF taping Raw, and Owens headbutting Vince

Impact Wrestling is downplaying the GFW name, as Anthem's deal to acquire that brand was never officially consummated. In other words, with Jeff Jarrett gone, the name GFW is going with him.

Eli Drake's recent work in Mexico will be profiled on this week's Impact Wrestling. They're getting some pretty good mileage out of Triplemania. Thankfully, they're not going to promote the Sexy Star aspect of things any more.

MYC competitor Princesa Sugehit was unmasked as the result of a CMLL match, so that opens things up for her to wrestle under her real name. That theoretically means she's done with that gimmick and about to start under a name elsewhere, but there's been no word of her heading to WWE on a more regular basis.

Daniel Bryan and Brie Bella remembered Connor The Crusher. Connor definitely made a big mark on WWE personnel who met him.

WWE is selling Halloween costumes for a number of past and present superstars. I'm surprised there are no Kane nor Mankind masks. There need to be some Breezango costumes, too. And a Chris Jericho scarf, and some New Day unicorns....  Get on this, WWE.

Vince McMahon was planned to be cut open on Smackdown, in a correction to a previous story. Vince created a wound on his forehead and covered it up so Kevin could open it back up. The original plan for the end of the segment was for Stephanie McMahon to clean up the blood with a towel, but that was changed. So, Vince is willing to violate the "no blood" rule in special cases. He's got the pull to change things like that on the fly.

OVW is holding a benefit event for Matt Cappotelli as he battles brain cancer again. I hope this is the last time he has to go through all that.

From WWE's stay in China:
- A number of WWE stars pressed their hands in cement at the largest golf course in the world.

- Shinsuke Nakamura and Lana had a meet-and-greet before the show.

- NXT's Big Boa beat Aiden English. Boa had Tian Bing in his corner. Good to see the local names in action there.

Davey Richards will undergo knee surgery, so he will not be working any more shows in 2017. Hopefully he'll be able to get back in action here and there in 2018.

Bobby "The Brain" Heenan passed away at the age of 73. Heenan is considered one of the best announcers and managers in the history of the business. He leaves behind a very big legacy.

- WWE released a statement on the Hall of Famer passing away.

- PWInsider had a long look at his career. Heenan will be rightly remembered as one of the most important figures in modern wrestling history.

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. It will depend on how much of a spectacle the event is in the years to come. If it's presented as the place to see "five-star matches" by workers who made their names in other promotions, the audience is limited. If it's presented as a larger-than-life event with big stars and all the pomp and circumstance of the Super Bowl, it should be fine. It's all a matter of how WWE adapts (or doesn't adapt) to mainstream culture and if they want to be a wrestling promotion or a sports-entertainment company.

2. It's definitely on the sensationalist side. There's a tendency with some outlets to make every story sound like a bigger deal than it is.

3. Shane is able to make the most of his toughness and daredevil streak in order to put on a big spectacle. He makes up for his lack of formal training with pure willpower and tenacity.

4. They would have kept doing it if WCW didn't spoil the taped content on Nitro! Although I'd imagine with the Internet growing in popularity, spoilers would have taken their toll eventually and their TV partners would have pushed for them to be live each week.

5. Vince goes all-in. He's more than willing to break the rules he sets for others.

More wrestling tomorrow.
