Lilian Garcia spoke to PWInsider about her podcast coming to WWE Network and more.

WWE has trademarked Sin Cara. It would be quite funny to have yet another competitor under the mask. 

AEW's Abadon was hospitalized after the most recent taping as a result of her match with Tay Conti. The match is not expected to air.

WWE Network's free tier has added multiple WCW Halloween Havoc events as well as other themed content.

Smackdown drew 881,000 viewers on FS1.

Talking Smack drew 343,000 viewers on FS1. Backstage surely would have done better if it followed or preceded Smackdown.

WWE's concussion lawsuit appeal has officially been denied. This has been going on for six years now. 

Kenny Omega will defend the AAA Mega Championship at TripleMania against Laredo Kid. No date has been set.

Marvel is teaming with AAA for a superhero-themed match at TripleMania. Luchadores based on Spider-Man and Captain America will face luchadores based on Thanos and Venom. WWE might as well go this route at this point.

The Rock received stitches after a workout mishap involving chains.

WWE is considering moving Thunderdome following Survivor Series, as sports are expected to return to venues soon.

NXT's Brendan Vink has been renamed Tony Modra.

Survivor Series has announced:

- Randy Orton vs. Roman Reigns in a non-title champion vs. champion match

- Asuka vs. Sasha Banks in a non-title champion vs. champion match

- Bobby Lashley vs. Sami Zayn in a non-title champion vs. champion match

- Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods vs. Street Profits in a non-title champions vs. champions match

- Raw vs. Smackdown five-on-five elimination men's match. Raw has announced AJ Styles, Sheamus, and Keith Lee.

- Raw vs. Smackdown five-on-five elimination women's match. Raw has announced Nia Jax, Shayna Baszler, Mandy Rose, Dana Brooke, and Lana.

Pat McAfee announced paying Ridge Holland to attack Adam Cole. If Ridge wasn't out for a long time, him being in a faction with Pat, Oney, and Danny would make sense.

WWE is seeking to hire writers.

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

1. Jericho is far and away the biggest mainstream name in AEW. Casual fans will tune in to see him do just about anything, clearly. That's great for his bank account and relevancy.

2. I REALLY don't see shows suddenly being at full capacity. I could more easily see a hybrid of Thunderdome and 10 percent capacity, then Thunderdome and 20 percent capacity, and that kind of thing. As for what to start with, it will depend on what things look like from a storyline and timing perspective.

3.a. No, as they were both faces afterward.

3.b. and 3.c.  It would have to make sense in WWE's storytelling. Generally, those opportunities aren't present. 

4.a. Yes.

4.b. I guess you could do that, as weird as it sounds. Ideally a second tag title would have something distinct about it like tornado rules. 

5. HA! AEW has definitely at times made the case for WWE's way of doing things, with Jericho being a top offender.  

More wrestling tomorrow.
