Allie and Braxton Sutter are on Stone Cold's latest podcast. I hope we can see Allie at least in WWE someday.
Impact has a preview show for Redemption. It's going to be tough to follow Wrestlemania weekend!
Tyrus has left Impact once again. He was brought back to do a podcast on their Twitch channel that never materialized. Without that and with no plans to use him in a prominent role, I can't blame him for leaving. He had a grand total of four matches in this run.
AJ Styles vs. Shinsuke Nakamura for the WWE Championship is official for Greatest Royal Rumble. I'm curious if they'll have a third round at Backlash. GRR's timing puts WWE in an awkward place, booking wise.
Ric Flair was on The Tonight Show to help perform "Ric Flair Drip." That's great!
Wrestlemania 33's venue is seeking fan support for the event returning there. Orlando is pretty much a given for a future show with NXT being based there.
WWE Network is preparing to upload Heat to its VOD section. The material is all ready.
British Strong Style is on Chris Jericho's latest podcast. I'd love to see Jericho face Pete Dunne at some point.
Netflix has announced GLOW's second season's premiere date. The first season was a big hit.
Smackdown drew 2.80 million viewers Tuesday night. WWE made the right call doing the Superstar Shakeup the week after WM34 to try to keep some of that casual audience around.
Raw's current live event tour doesn't reflect the Superstar Shakeup. That's not a surprise; it would have been a nightmare to change travel to South Africa for so many names. It will likely be a few weeks before live events reflect the new rosters due to so many travel arrangements already being booked.
Impact Wrestling will remain on UK TV. It will also air on the GWN app at the same time it airs in the U.S.
Scott Steiner had a conference call for Impact. It's every bit as amazing as you would think.
Territory star "Number One" Paul Jones also passed away, at the age of 75. He wrestled all over the world.
For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. Show up, buy merchandise for another wrestler, bring a sign supporting that other wrestler, and react accordingly to that other wrestler (booing if they're a heel, cheering if they're a face). Don't throw beach balls. Don't do "ironic" chants for C.M. Punk or the commentators or whatever. If you show that you are willing to go to shows to support certain wrestlers and aren't just going to disrupt things, WWE is much more likely to listen.

2. He pretty much ended his career in 2001, it looks like. Although he worked a charity show in 2006. I don't see anything about him wrestling since then.
3. Given the audience that show got, WWE could easily disagree.
4. I'm fine with him challenging for the WWE Title at Summerslam. I do think he should "earn his way back" and face some of the new names before then, though. He's been out of title contention for quite a while.
5. I guess they didn't want to use that visual for that venue.
More wrestling tomorrow.
