Scott Steiner collapsed at Friday's Impact Wrestling taping. He was taken to the hospital and had a heart procedure. He's doing better now. That's scary. I'm glad he got help in a timely manner.

AEW teased Matt Hardy leading The Dark Order. They've done a good job with these teases.

WWE's next Hall of Famer will be revealed on "After The Bell" this week.

WWE Day Of focusing on Super Showdown will air March 13. That should be interesting.

ROH's Women's Championship tournament has added Miranda Alize, who has appeared for both AEW and Impact.

ROH's Pure Championship tournament has added NJPW's Ren Narita.

Smackdown drew 2.45 million viewers this week. Smart of them to take advantage of the boost last week to setup the big Mania matches.

WWE's annual stockholders meeting will be held April 16.

WWE Network will add "Total Bellas'" fourth season on March 15.

WWE's YouTube channel has passed 40 billion views. That's pretty amazing.

Kenny Omega will not compete on Dynamite this week due to his broken finger.

Dynamite has added Chris Jericho and Sammy Guevara vs. Hangman Page and a mystery partner. That's intriguing!

Matt Hardy is set for Future Stars of Wrestling's March 15 event.

Elimination Chamber's Watch Along will feature Drew Gulak, Mandy Rose, and Tyson Kidd.

Ricochet did a Walmart signing before Elimination Chamber.

AJ Styles will be on WWE Backstage next.

Shayna Baszler spoke before Elimination Chamber. I like her mission statements there.

Liv Morgan spoke before Elimination Chamber.

WWE is being sued by a group of stockholders for allegedly misleading the public regarding the company's relationship with the Saudi Arabian government. The lawsuit makes some... interesting assertions to say the least. Hopefully if it's as absurd as it appears on the surface, it's dismissed quickly and those bringing about such claims are punished accordingly.

Matt Hardy spoke about his next steps, revealing discussions with AEW, Impact, and NWA.

Colt Cabana has been added to Joey Janela's Spring Break.

Rob Van Dam missed the most recent Impact tapings due to a broken rib. That sucks, as he's been one of the best parts of that promotion.

Raven worked as a producer for Impact's TV tapings this weekend.

Tyler Breeze worked his first live event since December 15 Saturday night, defeating Dorian Mak.

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. Punk's only returning if WWE makes him a huge offer and basically lets him dictate the terms. I don't think WWE's interested in making those concessions at this time.

2. Vintage Warrior!

3. I believe she's still an ambassador as well.

4. I expect WWE will make every effort to run every show on their calendar as long as they are able to do so.

5. I'm not remotely qualified to answer his one.

More wrestling tomorrow.
