New Network episode after Raw, WWE stars launching podcast, UpUpDownDown wins world record, TruTV looks at wrestling, NXT UK stars in WWE 2K19, another pre-WWE Rey match broadcast, NXT UK Women's title revealed, Interview with Lashley, NXT live event notes, and Questions on Hyatt's whereabouts, Impact turning things around, how ROH is affected by the Sinclair-Tribune deal falling through, ROH on Destination America, and Dixie at the NWA PPV

A new "WWE Story Time" will debut after Raw. Hurricane Helms will be featured in the episode.

Zack Ryder and Curt Hawkins have launched an action figure podcast. Interestingly, they're doing so under their given names instead of their WWE monikers.

UpUpDownDown won a Guinness World Record for most subscribed celebrity videogames channel. That doesn't seem as impressive as other Guinness records....

TruTV did a video on becoming a professional wrestler. Pretty fun.

WWE 2K19 has added Pete Dunne and Tyler Bate. I expect those two will be in many WWE games going forward. Both have proven themselves.

Expo Lucha on August 31 and September 1 will feature matches broadcast live in English and Spanish. Rey Mysterio will work one of his last scheduled dates there before joining WWE.

The NXT UK Women's Championship was revealed at the latest tapings.

Bobby Lashley spoke to Sam Roberts about Summerslam and more. I hope he's got something good coming up after falling off the map following the Roman loss.

At NXT's August 25 live event in Florida:
- Kacy Catanzaro worked her first NXT live event since June, teaming with Lacey Lane to defeat Reina Gonzalez and Taynara Conti.
- The former Ultimo Ninja worked as Humberto Carrillo, losing to Raul Mendoza. He's getting right to work after being signed.
- Shayna Baszler teamed with Jessamyn Duke and Marina Sharif to defeat Kairi Sane, Io Shirai, and Deonna Purrazzo. This was Sharif and Io's first live events in NXT. This could definitely be practice for the Horsewomen all working together at Survivor Series, as expected. It's very interesting to see Shirai and Sane together, as they've generally been rivals. We'll see how it all plays out.

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. She apparently retired from doing any appearances or anything in 2016, but she still comments on the business on Twitter.

2. It does appear that they're getting things in order, which is great news. Obviously they're a long way from where they were, say, five years ago, but 2018 has been better than 2017!

3. Basically it just means they won't be getting a big increase in coverage from that deal. It doesn't really "hurt" them because they didn't actually lose anything. They're just basically where they were before the deal was an option.

4. If Impact wasn't getting enough viewers to stay there, and ROH was getting even lower numbers, why would DA bring them back? The numbers don't lie, and they spell disaster for wrestling on DA. As for the theory mentioned here, that's the first I've heard of it. At the time the stated reason for getting ROH on the channel was to make a block of wrestling content so fans who wanted to see ROH would also watch Impact and/or vice versa. It didn't really work out like that...

5. I don't see it happening. Impact split from the NWA within a few years of her taking over. And, really, I wouldn't expect her to get a positive reaction!

More wrestling tomorrow.
