The Bella Twins have new merchandise for their return.
Shelton Benjamin spoke to ESPN about working with a number of talents over his previous run.
Kevin Owens is now listed as an alumnus on WWE.com in line with his "quitting" on Raw.
WWE tryouts will be held in Germany in November. "NXT Europe" could be a plan for down the line, but now I think these people are just being recruited for the Florida Performance Center.
All In's final hype show was on Being The Elite. The entire wrestling world will be watching Saturday.
The former Summer Rae was at ROH's latest TV taping. I'm curious if we'll see her come in for WOH - I can only find one match she's worked since leaving WWE two years ago.
Jimmy's Famous Seafood is holding an All In viewing party. That's a very popular venue for wrestlers. It's good to see the two sides work together.
ROH will run a TV taping in Pennsylvania on October 14. Interestingly, that's the same night as Bound For Glory in New York. I don't know how much of an overlap there will be in those audiences. It will be interesting to see which show draws a bigger house.
ROH stars visited a children's hospital before their latest TV taping. That's great for them to do.
All In's Over Budget Battle Royal has added Punishment Martinez and Brandon Cutler. Could we see ROH World Champion vs. ROH TV Champion later in the show?
Raw's Bobby Roode and Mojo Rawley worked a Smackdown Live live event Monday night, so Roode could be in front of his home town and defeat Mojo. I'm glad they didn't have Mojo go over!
The Bella Twins and Nia Jax are CurvyCon's keynote speakers. Good to see them getting to represent WWE there.
Santino Marella and Trish Stratus were backstage at Smackdown Live. Both are local to Toronto.
Jeff Jarrett's motion against Anthem regarding receiving the GFW master tapes was shot down, as Anthem has not officially responded to the lawsuit, and no attorneys are attached to it on their side.
The Briscoes vs. The Addiction for the ROH World Tag Team Championship is official for Death Before Dishonor. This could be Kazarian and Daniels' last chance at that title!
Raw drew 2.88 million viewers Monday, in line with what the show did before Summerslam.
NJPW's U.S. show on September 30 has added Kenny Omega, Kazuchika Okada, Testuya Naito, Hiroshi Tanahashi, Kota Ibushi, Tomohito Ishii, EVIL, and SANADA. So that's a pretty good talent lineup for what will be another important show for NJPW.
Super Show-Down has added AJ Styles vs. Samoa Joe for the WWE Championship. So we'll be seeing that match quite a bit in the months to come. I'm sure they can keep delivering each time.
For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. That's an interesting idea, but I don't know how good of a fit would be. I think it's more likely they put Bray and Harper back together somehow, as I doubt either of them are going to be up to much by themselves. No word on Lars' future, but I hope we see him back soon.
2. I wouldn't assume either are in financial trouble. I think there's a decent chance WWE decides to buy EVOLVE at some point. At the very least, they're staying associated.
3. Because Alexa's still a pretty highly decorated wrestler going against a WWE Hall of Famer. I think the age difference also improves Alexa's kayfabe chances. Sometimes it's about heat and seeing the heel get theirs instead of expecting a competitive match, and, really, if WWE doesn't take wins and losses seriously, why should we?
4. There's a BIG difference between a government treating women as second-class citizens and a company giving women a spotlight they don't usually get. There's not an outrage because the two situations are so vastly different.
5. Yes, they've faced off before, but those matches were early parts of a rivalry that's now reaching new heights.
More wrestling tomorrow.
