Interview with Strong, Keith Lee responds to Punk, Dynamite cruise update, more Rumble entrants, WWE Watch Along guests, another likely Rumble return, Von Erich movie on the way?, Lawler wins another title, AEW looking to sign NJPW name, Raw audience, Trish to be honored, NXT dark matches, Impact returns to Twitch, and Questions on Brock's WM36 opponent, NXT headlining WM36, WWE's roster size, and social media's effect on wrestling

Roderick Strong spoke to Sports Illustrated before NXT. As for a Horsewomen vs. Horsewomen match, it really doesn't seem to be in the cards anytime soon. Marina and Jessicka aren't really doing much at this point.

Keith Lee responded to C.M. Punk endorsing him to win Royal Rumble. It would be very big for NXT if Lee did that, but it feels like a long shot.

Chris Jericho's 2021 cruise will feature Dynamite live. I'm honestly surprised that didn't happen this year. That should be pretty big.

WWE has launched a Twitch channel. This will feature Kickoff shows and The Bump as well as other content.

Big E and Kofi Kingston have announced themselves as being in the Royal Rumble, while Natalya will be in the women's edition.

Royal Rumble's Watch Along will feature Xavier Woods, Johnny Gargano, Rhea Ripley, Mustache Mountain, WWE Now Chinese correspondent Nina Wu, and Todd Pettengill. The latter is a pretty cool surprise. Smosh Games crewmembers will join the event, too.

Naomi is scheduled for Royal Rumble weekend. She's expected to return to the Smackdown brand soon. I'll be glad to see her back. 

A Von Erich family feature film is believed to be in the works. That could definitely be a compelling story. 

Jerry Lawler won Championship Wrestling from Arkansas' Heavyweight Championship in a recent title vs. career match. His legendary wrestling career continues to add accolades!

Ruby Riott was on Mark Andrews' latest podcast. I don't expect her to return for Royal Rumble. 

AEW is negotiating to sign NJPW's Lance Archer, who is currently working as a freelancer. I'm curious how he would fit in if he joins. 

Raw drew 2.38 million viewers this week, in line with what they did two weeks ago without NCAA football competition.

Trish Stratus will receive the Lou Thesz Award at the George Tragos/Lou Thesz Hall of Fame, making her the first female honoree. That's a significant honor!

Before NXT:

- Mustache Mountain defeated Brendan Vink and Kona Reeves 

- Cameron Grimes defeated Babatunde

Impact's Twitch channel has been reinstated. We'll see if they make any content changes to stay on the platform.

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. I think it can be done, but I wouldn't assume it will happen. I expect Brock will face another "attraction" like Cain Velazquez rather than someone currently on the roster, unless in some crazy twist of fate he faces The Fiend.

2. Low, since there will be a Takeover the night before. Even if there wasn't, I think Brock's match would headline.

3. Brock can win and challenge for the Universal Championship. I'm under the impression the winners can challenge for their division's top title on Raw, Smackdown, or NXT. That said, I could see Brock winning and holding the Universal Title match hostage. That could setup someone like Drew McIntyre (or, let's be honest, Tyson Fury or Cain Velazquez) stepping up and accuse Brock and Heyman of ducking him.

4. I do think WWE can do a better job of cycling talents in and out, and honestly they probably could drop a number of people who aren't on TV and won't be anytime soon. Notably Dana Brooke has been used more on Smackdown lately.

5. Depending on how it's used and by whom, it can be a great benefit or a great hindrance.

More wrestling tomorrow.
