Eli Drake discussed leaving Impact and more. As usual, Impact hurt themselves. As for his next move, I hope he goes somewhere he'll be valued and featured.

Seth Rollins, Will Ospreay, and Chris Jericho were part of a Twitter feud after Seth called WWE the best wrestling on the planet and challenged fans to find someone as consistently good as Rollins is. NJPW's Will Ospreay answered the challenge, which Rollins refuted. This led to further tweets between the two. Chris Jericho also chimed in on the comparison, and on Rollins' original claim. I see this as Rollins feeling the need to prove himself and the company he's one of the top champions of. He takes pride in his work and wants to be seen as being at a high level. The others are also trying to get themselves and their respective companies over. Hopefully it gets people into watching and talking about all three products.

The Miz and Roddy Piper got trailers for their upcoming DVDs.

Super ShowDown will be on DVD in September.

Tyler Breeze is replacing Kyle O'Reilly at this weekend's EVOLVE events. That would seem to indicate Breeze is officially an NXT name internally. Breeze is facing AR Fox at EVOLVE 129 and Anthony Greene at EVOLVE 130.

Titus O'Neil was honored in Kentucky. That's really special.

Samoa Joe and the Usos visited Joe's nephew in the hospital. Good to see it.

Kofi Kingston has passed 1,500 days as a champion in WWE, which only four other wrestlers have done since WrestleMania I. The others were Hulk Hogan, John Cena, Triple H, and The Miz, so that's a pretty notable achievement.

Colt Cabana has been pulled from Best in the World due to injury. His replacement will be named during the pre-show for that event. Cabana expects to be back in the ring soon. I'm interested to see who replaces him in what is essentially an NWA match.

AEW's Cody and MJF are set for AAA's July 18 show, where they will face Brian Cage and Taurus. This is the AEW duo's debut in that promotion, and part of the working agreement between those two sides. I'm curious how things will work with AEW and Impact talent in the same match.

Seth Rollins spoke to Sports Illustrated about Jon Moxley's comments and more:
- Wow yeah Seth sees defending WWE as a crusade. I see why he would in his place on the card. We'll see how he feels ten years from now looking back.

- I mean if the money wasn't worth the stress, who's to blame Moxley for going somewhere else to do what he loves?

- Moxley did advocate for changes, as he said in the podcast, but was overruled.

WOW is teaming with Headlocked Comics for a signing at San Diego Comic-Con on July 20 and July 21. That's clever.

Slammiversary has officially added Sami Callihan vs. Tessa Blanchard. That will be noteworthy however it goes.

Impact and RCW's July 5 Impact+ event will have a 30-minute pre-show. We'll see what that involves.

Raw drew 2.28 million viewers Monday night, virtually identical to the previous week.

Sonya Deville discussed teaming with Mandy Rose. WWE definitely needs to time their inevitable split right.

Xavier Woods did a fighting games challenge with React.

Jinder Mahal has signed a new five-year contract with WWE. I'm interested to see where his career goes from here.

Lionheart is having a tribute show in PCW, with WWE allowing select talents to appear. That's really, really cool.

C.M. Punk was mentioned by a fan during a Raw commercial break when Sarah Schreiber asked which superstar was nicknamed "Best in the World." Yeah WWE should have seen that one coming.

Mark Henry is on Stone Cold's latest podcast.

Darby Allin was profiled by ITV before Fyter Fest.

Dragon Lee is set for ROH's July 20 TV taping in New York and July 21 HonorClub event in Massachusetts. This is on top of working Best in the World weekend. Glad to see ROH making use of him.

Mike Quackenbush has started a YouTube channel to guide younger wrestlers. That's very selfless of him; he's given a lot of knowledge to the business.

Before Smackdown Live, Ali defeated Buddy Murphy. This is the same dark match from before last week's episode.

After Smackdown Live, Bayley defeated Charlotte Flair to retain the Smackdown Women's Championship.

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. Someone could spend hours looking at matches that would have been a lot of fun but never happened. Brock vs. Vader definitely fits that list.

2. There are plenty of names who could benefit from another chance in a fresh environment, whether that's due to hitting a glass ceiling or stalled momentum. AEW would probably need as much TV time as Raw and Smackdown Live to feature them all well! I would actually argue Ryder could be someone who could reinvent himself if given a chance. He's definitely hit a wall in WWE.

3. If I remember correctly, either his WWE contract was coming to an end or something was worked out for him to take outside bookings through an agent. Starrcast contacted that agent to book the appearance, and WWE countered by giving Undertaker and Angle big contracts to essentially not do events like Starrcast. It was, at least initially, a case of Undertaker being able to do non-WWE appearances but him signing on for one during Double or Nothing weekend made WWE change course.

4. Vince books each character relative to how important he sees that character and what he thinks that character should be like. I truly think Vince wanted his vision of the Ambrose character to be a successful top name, but clearly that vision differed a lot from what others found ideal.

5. They're definitely doing the "Moxley is unstable/will attack anyone whether they're babyfaces, heels, referees, etc." thing, which of course is pretty much always going to invite Austin comparisons.

More wrestling tomorrow.
