Assorted wrestling press, Mr. Wrestling II passes, coronavirus-related wrestling updates, Backstage audience, big Cena donation, AEW name looking at training, Inner Circle discuss Stadium Stampede, Harley Race documentary, NXT+AEW matches, and Questions on Adam Cole post-NXT, Michael Cole vs. Divas, wrestler autographs, and COVID precautions

Big Japan Pro Wrestling is joining IWTV beginning June 18.

The Bump this week featured Shayna Baszler, Nia Jax, Street Profits, Drake Maverick, and NXT's Alicia Taylor.

- Sunday's episode will feature The Miz, John Morrison, Jinder Mahal, MVP, and Paige.

Mr. Wrestling II passed away at 85. PWInsider and F4WOnline ran down his career, with the former including remembrances from the industry.

Pennsylvania's Mahoning Drive-In theater has set two wrestling nights featuring live matches and the following movies:
- Bodyslam The Movie and Ready to Rumble on August 14
- Suburban Commando and a surprise movie on August 15

NXT UK canceled its July 24 and July 25 TV tapings. The brand continues to be placed on hold due to COVID-19.

Backstage drew 112,000 viewers this week, close to last week.

John Cena donated a million dollars (!!!) to Black Lives Matter. That's MASSIVE.

NJPW has released extensive precautions for resuming shows.

Korakuen Hall will reopen at around 25% capacity initially.

Dustin Rhodes is looking to open a wrestling school. That would be perfect for AEW. He can be a very important part of the company's future.

The Inner Circle discussed Stadium Stampede and more on Talk Is Jericho.

NWA ran a Harley Race documentary.

NXT has announced:
- Imperium vs. Breezango for the Tag Team Championship
- Tegan Nox and Shotzi Blackheart challenging for the Women's Tag Team Championship

Fyter Fest has announced Cody vs. Jake Hager for the TNT Championship.

Dynamite has announced:
- Kenny Omega and Hangman Page vs. Natural Nightmares for the Tag Team Championship
- Cody defending the TNT Championship
- Young Bucks vs. Superbad Death Squad (Kip Sabian and Jimmy Havoc)
- Chris Jericho and Sammy Guevara vs. Best Friends
- Billy Gunn vs. MJF

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. He would have a much more difficult time standing out on Raw and Smackdown. He's a supremely talented athlete, but those shows are loaded right now.

2. Essentially Cole didn't take the matches seriously, which was more or less in line with how the company handled women's matches at the time. These days it would be very out of place because WWE puts a lot more effort into the division.

3. That shot to Flair was STIFF. I don't think anyone's expecting Undertaker to do signings each weekend, but certainly some stars could be part of a mini-AXXESS kind of thing before the event.

Nothing to add to 4. Both companies are taking precautions, and I don't believe cost is a factor.

5. I would recommend this person find more constructive quarantine hobbies.

More wrestling tomorrow.
