Raw matches announced, new Funko merchandise, assorted wrestling press, WOW update, Survivor Series team addition, and Questions on WWE not using Punk's theme, Cole not in a champion vs. champion match, why the Lana angle continues, Punk getting a good WWE offer due to Backstage, and AJ Lee returning to WWE

Raw has added Asuka vs. Natalya and a tag match featuring Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch. Good to see women in the spotlight more. 

Funko has announced figures for The Fiend, Dr. of Thuganomics John Cena, Hulk Hogan, Diesel, Kevin Nash, "Mean" Gene Okerlund, The Miz, and Naomi. I REALLY hope other Firefly Fun House friends are coming.

Sonya Deville discussed coming out and more. 

King Kong Bundy is discussed on a Netflix special from comedian Jeff Garlin, with Garlin being helped by Bundy when King Kong as a bouncer.

"The Peanut Butter Falcon" has been released on DVD.

Jerry Lawler and Headlocked Comics' Michael Kingston are set for Kentucky's Galaxycon. 

Bob Backlund got press for a Pennsylvania appearance.

NXT's Jordan Omogbehin was profiled. His size is definitely impressive.

WOW's next episode is being advertised as the season finale. More episodes have been taped. 

Cody and AEW were profiled. He's getting big praise. We'll see what his legacy is years down the line.

Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat talked in Florida.

Smackdown's Survivor Series women's team will feature Nikki Cross with Sasha Banks, Lacey Evans, Dana Brooke, and Carmella.

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. It's possible it came together so quickly WWE didn't put a deal together to pay for rights. We'll see if things change. This is why they like to make music in house!

2. Brock vs. The Fiend vs. Adam Cole would be very, very interesting, but Cole would definitely be destroyed by one or both. It's wise to not beat him clean when he's finally getting some big exposure.

3. WWE keeps pointing to how many YouTube views the segments get. Clearly someone keeps watching!

4. The Backstage gig can definitely boost his value to WWE, and open the door for him to return for the right deal. I also don't think it's a long-term plan he's putting together, but things are working well for him right now.

5. I don't think she's interested in returning to wrestling, but for the right offer I assume she'd be willing to listen.

More wrestling tomorrow.
