Main Event Reax - 11/26/17, Hogan update, more Starrcade notes, more Raw 25 plans, back-to-back WWE tapings announced, Nia addresses criticism, and Questions on the Steiners in 2017, HoF decision, another Mid-Atlantic fanfest, WWE's Paige movie, and why Funk keeps wrestling

-- Main Event:
- Kendrick vs. Metalik:
Nice back-and-forth to start.

I like the story here. Each man has a clear strategy.

I like Kendrick wearing Gran down.

This is pretty impressive!

Pretty good ending.

- Video packages:
Interesting they went right from the Raw women's invasion to the Smackdown women's invasion. A lot of people are speculating the two are linked.

- Apollo vs. Hawkins:
I almost wish Apollo was still in NXT given how he's used at present.

Curt battling a 133-loss streak coming into this one, spanning back more than a year. On the bright side, he's gotten to work more matches in 2017 than in any year of his career.

Crews running him around. 

At least he's getting some offense.

Titus getting nervous. The streak might end right here!!

Ahhh... he was close.

Nick Hogan discussed his father getting back in the ring. They say you're only as good as your last match. I hope Hulk keeps things limited for that reason.

WWE's YouTube account posted highlights from Starrcade. The event is expected to return in 2018, as it was a big success. Michael Hayes pitched the idea for the event back in June once he found out the company was running that venue close to when Starrcade has traditionally been held. Hayes was in charge of the event, focusing on paying tribute to legends from the area.

WWE is getting former talents to do video messages for the Raw 25th anniversary. That's going to be a really big show.

WWE will tape Raw on February 19 and Smackdown on February 20 in Phoenix, Arizona in addition to tapings on March 19 and March 20 in Dallas, Texas.

Nia Jax tweeted about facing body shaming in WWE. As long as WWE's physicians consider her at a healthy weight, it's not really anyone else's business.

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. He had been part of his local school council, as funny as that sounds given his wrestling character. Scott owns a Shoney's restaurant.

2. There is some consideration on if they feel a class already has its headliner, having a certain number of women and tag teams, etc., but ultimately it's all Vince's call.

3. I was under the impression that would be the case.

4. It should be a unique experience!

5. To some degree it's because he wants to help people out when they have an idea for him to get back in the ring. He's incredibly selfless like that.

More wrestling tomorrow.
