Havok promoted Bound For Glory with PWInsider.com. 

CMLL is back airing on Azteca America.

MLW's recent taping saw the debuts of Lio Rush, ACH, and Shawn Daivari.

ROH is looking at a December TV taping. It doesn't appear Final Battle will take place this year.

Daga was released by Impact. He hadn't been used since the pandemic, even after Impact was able to use Mexico-based talent.

Rey Fenix will not wrestle on Dynamite this week due to being hurt in his match Wednesday night. Penta El Zero M will replace him in wrestling Kenny Omega.

Fozzy is doing a livestream concert November 14.

WWE is holding mandatory talent meeting on healthy relationships in the wake of the Speaking Out movement and the Matt Riddle lawsuit. That's not a bad idea at all. 

WWE has signed Ben Carter, who recently competed on AEW Dark and Xplosion. Impressive! We'll see how he does. 

The Miz and John Morrison appeared in a WWE Cricket ad

The Create A  Pro Wrestling Academy is reopening with a new format. Pat Buck, LSG, Anthony Bowens, and Bobby Wayward will be the trainers. 

"Young Rock" has begun filming in Australia.

Quibi will remain active into November.

Kairi Sane is joining Japanese commentary for Hell in a Cell.

Leva Bates is on AEW Unrestricted this week.

Teddy Hart has been jailed in Texas as a fugitive from justice. It sounds like this is related to charges from a few years back.

Countdown to Glory added The Deaners vs. Wentz and Dez.

Pro Wrestling Tees has sold two million wrestling items. That's very, very impressive.

Big E was interviewed by OutKick

Titus O'Neil will be the grand marshal of a Florida race this weekend.

Impact Plus is free for Bound For Glory weekend. Not a bad idea to push that platform as they resume events for it.

Triple H assisted with this week's Smackdown, as well as last week's. His role now is primarily focused on expanding developmental, but obviously opening more Performance Centers is on hold during the pandemic.

Abadon was injured during Dynamite. No more details are available at this time.

Actor Bill Moseley will appear on the ROH Strong podcast this week, as will Vincent.

Tracy Smothers has started a second cancer GoFundMe.

Hell in a Cell has added Otis vs. The Miz for the Money In The Bank briefcase. Honestly I'm open to having Miz win it at this point.

Shorty G is reverting back to the Chad Gable name.

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

1. I really don't expect it, unless the same precautions are taken with both events. 

2. Impact loved them and will almost definitely do something else in the same tone at some point. Things are kind of continuing with John E. Bravo's wedding. I could see a "season 2" down the line with different wacky characters involved. 

3. I believe they're still pretty involved! They're a duo of musicians who perform in face paint. They have a pretty unique following due to their style. 

Nothing to add to 4 or 5. 

More wrestling tomorrow.
