Rosa-AEW update, international wrestling updates, more on WWE court case, more on Miro-AEW, AEW team splits, AEW tryout, more on WWE PPVs, assorted wrestling press and content updates, Brisco thanked, Dynamites rescheduled, Jarrett-Anthem update, Raw matches, and Questions on Demolition in the HOF, cruisers in WWE, and why digital shows continue

Thunder Rosa has a per-date agreement with AEW. It would be cool if she's able to balance AEW and NWA.

NJPW has announced Japanese returns for KENTA, Jeff Cobb, Will Ospreay, and Jay White in the upcoming G1 Climax. That's a significant commitment for all involved given quarantine conditions. 

WWE is seeking court cost reimbursements from the thrown out concussion lawsuit, totaling more than $500,000. I can't blame them!

CMLL's anniversary show will be headlined by the match that gets the most votes. That's an interesting approach. I would think American fans would do a prank vote in that case, but maybe things are different for lucha fans.

Dragon Gate is getting a show on Amazon Prime Japan in a deal with LEC Corporation. I'm curious how that will go for them and if it will start a trend.

The Great Muta is in discussions to compete for the NWA World Championship in a few weeks. That would be special if it can be worked out with COVID travel restrictions.

NJPWoA's Alex Zayne has a hip injury and will miss the next few weeks of action.

Miro has signed a multi-year deal with AEW. He will be allowed to work NJPW in Japan and other dates with AEW approval. That's significant! I hope he can really establish himself. 

AEW's Initiative (Brandon Cutler and Peter Avalon) have split and are now feuding on Dark. They seem to have quite a few lower-card acts stuck on that show, but I think they can argue they're building people to put in the mix on Dynamite. 

AEW gave Benjamin Carter a tryout on Dark this week. 

Clash of Champions will feature every Raw and Smackdown championship being defended. That's not really a huge selling point by itself, I feel.

Hell In A Cell has been moved up to October 25, as that's before the Thunderdome lease ends. Of course, that lease could be extended. I wonder if they'd do a slightly different Thunderdome in a different venue if need be?

AJ Styles indicated he intends to retire at the end of his current year. That's years away, so things could change. 

Jerry Lawler will host WWE Story Time when it returns.

NJPW has declared El Desperado and Yoshinobu Kanemaru the new IWGP Junior Tag Team Champions after those two defeated Hiromu Takahashi and BUSHI.

ROH aired Death Before Dishonor 2017 on their STIRR app.

ROH will have a watchalong when their next episode airs on FITE. 

Jeff Hardy discussed wanting Willow in WWE. I could see that being a tough sell. 

Gerald Brisco was thanked on Twitter by Adam Pearce, Madman Fulton, Mick Foley, Otis, Shelton Benjamin, Tucker, and William Regal for his WWE tenure. Glad to see that.

Homicide has been added to Bloodsport. 

AEW has rescheduled:

- Their October 7 Missouri Dynamite for June 23

- Their October 28 Wisconsin Dynamite for July 14

- Their November 4 Texas Dynamite for June 30

- Their November 11 New York Dynamite for June 16

-- This was an expected move during COVID.

Anthem and Jeff Jarrett's hearing was delayed due to a local judicial death.

Jeff Jarrett paid tribute to TNA voiceover artist Barry Scott. 

WrestleHouse was Rosemary's idea, with RD Evans driving the storylines and Tommy Dreamer executing them. It was "unique" to say the least. I hope it got the attention they were hoping for with it.

"Impact in 60" will spotlight EC3 on September 23.

Adam Cole visited a children's hospital. He's a natural babyface.

Rocky Romero is on the next ROH Strong podcast.

Raw has added:

- Seth Rollins vs. Dominik Mysterio in a steel cage

- Drew McIntyre vs. Keith Lee in a non-title match

- The show is being subtitled "In Your Face" and notably goes against the NFL's return.

Primetime Live's second week will be headlined by Thunder Rosa vs. Priscilla Kelly for the NWA Women's Championship. That title is getting some good exposure lately!

Clash of Champions has added Bayley vs. Nikki Cross for the Smackdown Women's Championship.

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:

Nothing to add to 1 or 5.

2. Basically that's up to the two sides to reconcile. 

3. Given the size and style of a lot of current wrestlers in WWE, I'd say they did "catch on." In previous eras they were viewed as a sideshow to the main attractions. Anyone who was worthwhile was moved to other title pictures. That's also true of tag teams. 

4. This would also be true for Main Event. I also wonder if it's worth keeping that many talent under contract, but I don't think they want to cancel shows and release people if they don't feel that they have to.

More wrestling tomorrow.
