Andre the Giant was remembered by "Princess Bride" co-star Fred Savage.

King Corbin discussed his favorite horror movie.

Double or Nothing's Casino Ladder Match has announced Darby Allin as its first competitor. I think he'd be a great championship contender.

AEW's Aubrey Edwards was profiled in Yahoo! Sports.

Sareee promoted Money in the Bank in Japan.

Karl Anderson has trademarked "Chad 2 Badd."

Curt Hawkins (Brian Myers) has trademarked "Never Defeated" and "Prince of Queens."

Luke Gallows has trademarked "TALKINSHOPMANIA," a reference to his podcast.

Kofi Kingston spoke to Sports Illustrated about Big E's potential. I'm beyond ready for him to be pushed.

WWE's Greatest Ladder Matches special drew 996,000 viewers. We'll see if more such specials are coming.

Otis is on Lilian Garcia's latest podcast. Great timing!

Alberto El Patron was arrested for an alleged sexual assault in Texas before being released on bond. He could face more than two years in jail time as well as a $10,000 fine if convicted. The allegations are disturbing. If true they should spell the end of his career as a public feature.

The Undertaker spoke to the Wide World of Wrestling podcast.

AEW was covered by Deadspin for returning to live action. The venue is close to a COVID-19 testing facility.

WrestleMania 28 played on ESPN in Australia Friday night. We'll see if more is coming in that line.

WWE Backlash has been announced for June 14.

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. I am completely sympathetic to him putting his family first at a time like this. I'm more or less unfazed by how most outlets cover things, wrestling or otherwise. I don't have the highest of expectations for them to put accuracy over attention-grabbing headlines.

2. He definitely has had a lot of setbacks that have prevented him from being the franchise player WWE has wanted.

3. The story has been that Vince would rather spread that star power out into two big matches rather than having those two face off. The story has also been that that matchup also feels a lot bigger in hindsight than it did at the time.

4. I'm guessing they didn't want to "retire" Hogan and/or do a tournament, instead having Savage get a run with the title. Makes sense.

5.a. I expect ROH and NWA running in front of zero paying fans would be more of a detriment than a benefit.

5.b. MLW is well prepared with plenty of content for their TV shows.

More wrestling tomorrow.
