NJPW wants a mobile game, Y2J notes, Interviews with Rey/Mickie+Trish, Rock putting together competition, Dreamer challenging for NWA title, WWE cookbook coming, NFL champions get WWE title, another honorary Titus Worldwide client, and Questions on Cena beating Finn, WM35's location, why Braun isn't facing Brock at WM34, Cass splitting from Enzo, and Rousey's WWE future

NJPW's parent company is looking to put together a mobile game to launch in conjunction with the 2020 Tokyo Dome show. That's another pretty cool move to build the brand.

Chris Jericho was on the most recent episode of "Last Call with Carson Daly." Presumably he's promoting a big Fozzy tour.

Fozzy is holding a Wrestlemania party after the final stop on their tour, where fans can watch the show with the band.

Rey Mysterio promoted Five Star Wrestling in the UK:
- It's good to have veterans work with talents still making their way in the business. It gets newer talents on the map.

- There's definitely a big reaction for Rey coming back to WWE.

- Oh people were LIVID at him being the 30th entrant in 2014 instead of Bryan.

- The end of the Rumble match was well done.

- Sounds like it's just a matter of time until we see Ray in a WWE ring again.


The Rock is putting together a competition for NBC. That sounds like a pretty cool concept.

Tommy Dreamer will challenge Nick Aldis for the NWA World Championship at House of Hardcore's March 24 event. This will be live on Twitch. The agreement between HOH and NWA is paying dividends. Good to see that.

WWE is releasing a cookbook in October. That should be interesting.

The Super Bowl Champions now have a WWE Championship belt.

Trish Stratus and Mickie James are on the most recent Lilian Garcia podcast.

Sam Roberts joined Titus Worldwide. Wow. Titus really has quite the brand now, huh?

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. I think Finn's going to end up in the Chamber after all. Cena winning means Elias got to pin him the next week. This is why it's worth letting things play out a bit.

2. They could announce it closer to WM34. It's definitely expected to be in New York.

3. Basically they've planned on Roman vs. Brock headlining the show since WM33 and they booked that show in a way to lead to this year's main event. After beating Taker and Cena, Roman's set to get another big win under his vest at Mania. All that said, I would have loved to have seen Braun beat Brock one-on-one and maybe set up a triple threat for WM34 with The Big Dog.

4. I think they used to be pretty close, but there's some legitimate heat there after Enzo "went off-script" in taking shots at Cass' injury. Enzo's incredibly effective at getting heat, on-screen and off.

5. We'll get a better idea once we get closer to Wrestlemania.

More wrestling tomorrow.
