Interviews with Sonya/Rhea/Kofi, Bollywood star gets WWE title, Impact staff member pulled from MLW, MLW departures, FNSD audience, new Table for 3 Monday, Ride Along in the works, WWE selling "authentic" titles, PWG name finishes up before WWE, NJPW injuries, Khan comments on stunner, and Questions on the next indie gimmick to break out, Bucks leaving Twitter, ROH's 2020, and entrance music

Sonya Deville spoke to Fox News about making it to WWE.

Rhea Ripley spoke to Sports Illustrated. She had a really big moment this week, and I don't think it will be her last.

Bollywood's Salman Khan got his own custom WWE Championship. Yeah I think we've reached a point where these are meaningless.

Impact's Dave Sahadi is no longer working MLW after signing back with Impact. MLW had been under the impression he was going to be allowed to work both places.

MLW's Ricky Martinez and Barrington Hughes have left the company. Hughes asked for his release, but there are conflicting reports about whether Ricky's departure was voluntary.

Smackdown this week drew 2.41 million viewers, getting a bit of a boost from TLC.

Kofi Kingston spoke to Newsweek about his new contract and more.

"Table for 3" after Raw will feature Mark Henry, D'Lo Brown, and The Godfather discussing The Nation of Domination.

Corey Graves and Carmella filmed an episode of "WWE Ride Along" this week.

WWE is selling "TV authentic" versions of the WWE and Universal Championships.

Jake Atlas has worked his final PWG event. He's expected to join WWE soon.

NJPW's SANADA and Yujiro Takahashi missed the most recent event due to injuries.

Tony Khan defended his stunner to Shawn Spears. As long as it doesn't become a regular thing, I'm not really as critical of it as many seem to be.

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. It looks like Danhausen's going to be in ROH again for whatever that's worth. I don't have a qualified opinion on the others.

2. I wouldn't assume it's permanent. They are learning the double-edged sword of the platform, though. We'll see if a company that seems to really be pushing appealing to the social media crowd makes adjustments based on how that angle was received.

3. Wow there's no way I'm topping that one.

4. Let's just say things are going to be tougher for them with NXT, AEW, and NJPW competing for the same talent and audience.

5. I'm not even remotely qualified to answer this one. I love Undertaker, Stone Cold, and C.M. Punk's themes though.

More wrestling coming up.
