WWE reported the passing of Jose Lothario, who trained Shawn Michaels.

- Michael Hayes also noted his passing.

WWE has partnered with the NSPCC on an anti-bullying initiative in the UK. It's great to see that as a goal WWE is working toward.

- Becky Lynch, Naomi, and Trent Seven were at the launch of the campaign.

Tenille Dashwood is going meet and greet events before each Global Wars event.

The Miz spoke to Glasgow Live.

WWE is selling cardboard standees of Ronda Rousey, Kurt Angle, Elias, The Miz, Finn Balor, Shinsuke Nakamura, Bobby Roode, Becky Lynch, Asuka, Carmella, and Mandy Rose.

Zelina Vega has been kept out of the ring due to concussion symptoms. I'm glad WWE's keeping tabs on her health.

Braun Strowman vs. Baron Corbin is now being advertised for TLC, with Corbin replacing McIntyre. As always, until it's announced on TV (and even then), I'd take the lineup with a grain of salt.

Smackdown Live drew 2.09 million viewers Tuesday, very close to what they drew the week before.

At Raw's November 7 live event in Germany:
- Elias, Tamina, and the Riott Squad had a singalong.
- Curt Hawkins lost in an eight-man tag teaming with The Ascension and Mojo Rawley against The B-Team, No Way Jose, and Tyler Breeze. Hawkins then lost singles matches to Zack Ryder and Titus O'Neil to extend the streak to 0-226. I don't think this is any kind of "burial" or anything as much as kind of a rib based on him losing so often.

WWE will return to Germany from May 15 through May 18.

AJ Styles has now held the WWE Championship for an entire year. I'm sure someone out there still thinks he's being "buried," though.

Ronda Rousey answered questions from Europe.

Global Wars has added:
- Matt Taven vs. BUSHI in Massachusetts November 8
- Dalton Castle vs. TK O'Ryan in New York November 9

CMLL's Rush will work the ROH TV taping after Final Battle.

At Global Wars Lewiston, power went out twice in the building. This led to a streaming issue during the Young Bucks vs. Bully Ray and Silas Young. Thankfully things were worked out for the remainder of the show to be streamed.

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. I don't expect to see it.

2. If not a direct reference, it was certainly in line with the gimmick.

3. I was thinking Black Swan, but either way it would be a big departure from the other female wrestlers if she didn't wear makeup, so I'm not against things continuing as they are.

4. There might be a different level of heat, and I definitely think there would be more in the way of retaliation from the company. WWE needs Cena and Bryan more than Cena and Bryan need WWE. That's not true for other workers.

5. Their paths haven't crossed professionally. Heyman, like Cornette, has butted heads with a lot of people who have wanted to do something differently than he wanted to, and would probably feel the same way about Russo if that happened.

More wrestling tomorrow.
