The Singh Brothers are on Lilian Garcia's latest podcast. As far as I know no one tried to challenge for the 24/7 Championship.

Stone Cold had custom cleats at an NFL game. OHHHH HELLLL YYYYEEEAAHHHHH.

ROH has signed Dan Maff to a two-year deal. I really liked his recent work; I hope he has a good run coming.

WWE promoted WrestleMania 35's economic effects in New York and New Jersey. You know other cities are going to see that and decide to make their own Mania week pitches.

Impact showed tonight's opening.

Stone Cold's new WWE Network series was officially announced. The Undertaker will be his first guest after Survivor Series. Now that will be interesting!

Eric Bischoff will attend Qatar Pro Wrestling's October 14 press conference. It's likely he'll become further involved with the project.

Sin Cara has asked WWE to release him from his contract. I think it's fair to say WWE isn't going to move him up the card, so I can see why he's looking to work elsewhere. I wouldn't expect WWE to grant it (ask Mike Kanellis and Luke Harper), but maybe something will be worked out for him to start a new chapter somewhere else.

- It's believed he's interested in working for Alberto El Patron's MMA promotion.

- He is not expected to be on Monday's Raw, but he is also not expected to be released from his deal. His current contract has three years remaining, so it could be a very long wait for him.

AEW Dynamite on January 15 is set for Florida, at the University of Miami's Watsco Center.

WWE Network will add "WrestleMania's Legendary Moments" and "1997: Dawn of the Attitude" Friday.

WWE Starrcade on December 1, a WWE Network special, is advertising:
- The Fiend vs. The Miz in a steel cage match for the WWE Championship
- Roman Reigns vs. King Corbin
- Seth Rollins vs. Randy Orton
- The Kabuki Warriors vs. Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch in a Texas Tornado match for the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship
- Braun Strowman vs. Shinsuke Nakamura and Sami Zayn
- AJ Styles vs. Kevin Owens for the WWE United States Championship
- Kofi Kingston and Big E vs. The Revival for the WWE Smackdown Tag Team Championship
- Rusev vs. Bobby Lashley
-- It's unknown which of these matches will air on the special.

WCW announcer Chris Cruise is on the latest "Wrestling With History" podcast.

Justin Credible gave a long interview.

Francine returned to the hospital after experiencing further abdominal issues.

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. There is absolutely a push for Moxley to do that kind of match, since he wasn't able to show that side of himself in WWE. And there's no way we'll see it on TNT, so that's likely going to be a fixture on upcoming events. I do think the carnage outweighed how personal the feud has been, but it can also be argued they were charging $50 for the show and wanted to go all out, perhaps as a contrast to the Seth Rollins/Fiend Hell in a Cell ending.

2. I only listen to podcasts and interviews and such when something very newsworthy occurs, as in something that's also covered elsewhere. There is absolutely such a thing as too much wrestling content to be exposed to.

3. It was an uphill battle for anyone to compete with Vince, but obviously if someone didn't make as many mistakes, they would have lasted longer. Vince was very, very determined to be the sole player in the U.S. scene, so someone would have had to have really been on top of their game to succeed against him.

4.a. Yes, when someone's in NXT, they're used by the NXT booking team. I would think there could be some input from others, but Vince has been remarkably hands off with the product. That's especially surprising given the huge expenses NXT has racked up.

4.b. If NXT pulls three million viewers or something, then I would think changes would be made to Raw and Smackdown. At 800,000, I don't really see big changes coming.

5. It should hurt the credibility of sites that took those stories and ran with them as fact instead of applying proper skepticism. Extraordinary claims should require extraordinary evidence.

More wrestling tomorrow.
