WWE Timeline focuses on Ric Flair vs. Randy Savage.
Dominik Mysterio spoke to Alicia Atout.
IWTV has launched an Apple TV app.
WWE talents will be allowed to continue YouTube and Twitch accounts as long as their real names are used and the company is aware of the channels. Not unreasonable at all. They're making those accounts as themselves, not as their WWE characters.
Impact's Josh Alexander is booked for Bloodsport.
Raw has announced Street Profits vs. Shinsuke Nakamura and Cesaro in a battle of tag team champions. Neither championship is on the line. Clearly the brand invitational just hasn't been inviting anyone during the RETRIBUTION crackdown.
For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. When they get their second TNT show, it's possible that's part of it, as well as Dark. Until then I'm not sure they'll rush to it.
2. It's a place for fights to happen with no rules. Instead of trying to pin someone, you just beat them down. That benefits some wrestlers more than a regular match would, and is a bigger grudge than something formal with a referee and so on. I could see them doing a trophy or something, but the 24/7 Title doesn't fit that. I don't see any reason to turn one into the other.
3. I really don't see why someone who's already got a job in WWE would feel the need to tear the place down. It makes more sense for it to be a group of WWEPC talents tired of waiting their turn. I don't dislike the idea of Adam Pearce leading them - how many years did it take for him to make it to the company, and the best they have for him is being a gofer? That could motivate him to fight for change.
4. Fans wanted change in the product. This is certainly a noteworthy change.
5. Devlin is still champion, so it makes sense for him to continue defending it. Obviously at some point they can unify the titles, but that's going to be a little difficult during the pandemic.
More wrestling tomorrow.
