Another NXT show postponed, WWE 2K account hacked, new FNSD match, FNSD audience, Elimination Chamber site, new Network episodes, Interview with Charlotte, NXT UK's next Takeover set, another WWE name asks for release, Starrcade card change, WWE Mexico card change, Myles Q&A, Regal discloses surgery, Nash on WWEPC experience, and Questions on WWE changing titles, who can and can't use the name ECW, and Liger's retirement

NXT's November 22 Indiana live event has been postponed to March 29 due to NXT talents preparing for Survivor Series weekend.

WWE 2K's social media accounts were recently compromised, with those responsible posting lewd and controversial content, as well as promoting AEW. Juvenile.

Bray Wyatt's new Universal Championship already has replicas available. That's one way to sell more merchandise, I guess! It does make sense for the Smackdown title to be blue.

Smackdown has added Roman Reigns, Mustafa Ali, and Shorty G vs. King Corbin, Dolph Ziggler, and Robert Roode.

Smackdown drew 2.35 million viewers this week. I can't help but think losing Brock, Cain, and Rey is playing a big role in that.

Elimination Chamber 2020 is taking place on March 8 in Pennsylvania.

"WWE Ride Along" after Raw will feature Kevin Owens, Mustafa Ali, and Apollo Crews, as well as Trish Stratus and Lita.

"WWE Untold" Friday will focus on Sting vs. Seth Rollins.

"WWE Day Of" before Survivor Series will focus on this year's draft.

Charlotte Flair spoke in India.

NXT UK Takeover Blackpool II is set for January 12.

NXT/205 Live star Oney Lorcan has asked for his release and changed his Twitter name to his former ring name of Biff Busick. As of now, he has not been given the release. We're really seeing a trend of talents wanting out.

WWE Starrcade has switched two matches around, with Braun Strowman challenging The Fiend for the Universal Championship in a cage match and The Miz taking on Shinsuke Nakamura and Sami Zayn for the Intercontinental Championship.

WWE's November 30 Mexico live event is advertising The Fiend vs. Rey Mysterio for the Universal Championship. Wow. Rey's getting some big opportunities.

Jordan Myles returned to Twitter for a live Q&A. He does seem motivated to accomplish things, just not for WWE.

William Regal disclosed undergoing open heart surgery in 2018. That's very serious. I'm glad he's better now.

Kevin Nash discussed working with NXT's Jordan Omobgehin.

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. A lot of it is because a title is representing a certain brand with a certain color associated with it. So, when it switches to the other show, they change the color. And yes every so often they think a title needs a fresh look entirely.

2 and 4 are repeats.

3. I wonder if they thought WWE would come after them for using that name. I know when Impact did a reunion show with ECW stars they made great paints to avoid using those letters and that name.

5. I do think he will as a wrestler, but will continue to contribute in other ways. I don't know enough about what NJPW is putting together to have a good suggestion on that front.

More wrestling tomorrow.
