Spin The Wheel, Make The Deal options include a Biker's Chain Match, Blindfold Match, Boiler Room Brawl, Buried Alive Match, Casket Match, Chamber of Horrors Match, Coal Miner's Glove on a Pole Match, Devil's Playground Match, Shotzi's Choice Match, TLS, Trick or Streetfight, and a Weapons Wild match. Most of those seem out of place in NXT, but maybe that's the point. NXT is shifting to embrace the past more.
Sam Roberts is getting a weekly WWE Network podcast, unrelated to his current endeavors. I'm curious what that will look like and how it will go.
wXw wrestler Karsten Beck passed away at 34 due to brain cancer. Very sad news.
WWE's Brothers of Destruction documentary will debut at the Austin Film Festival ahead of appearing on WWE Network. Intriguing idea to reach a different audience.
Mattel held a fan poll for an Ultimate Warrior figure design.
Randy Savage has a custom WWE Championship for sale.
Braun Strowman promoted Smackdown on the BJ & Migs podcast.
Roman Reigns spoke to CBS Sports. I've really enjoyed the Jey Uso feud. It's logical.
Dynamite drew 826,000 viewers this week. It's interesting there wasn't a huge boost for all the title matches and hype.
NXT drew 651,000 viewers this week. They're being soundly beaten every week. I'm really surprised no drastic changes have been made.
The Collective has seen two more COVID-19 positive tests. That's worrisome.
Sonny Kiss is on Brandi Rhodes' podcast this week.
ROH has removed a number of talent from this week's TV taping due to them being involved with The Collective, following multiple confirmed COVID-19 diagnoses from that weekend's events.
- Danhausen has confirmed he will not compete at the taping as initially scheduled due to working The Collective.
For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
Nothing to add to 1, 2, 4, or 5.
3. It was an important milestone for him. They put together a pretty significant show. And obviously a good number of people are ready to get out of the house and watch wrestling, whether that's advisable or not.
6. He's a producer. I could see him being more important when he's able to travel and be part of NJPWoA. I don't believe he will wrestle again, and he already worked Madison Square Garden on G1 Supercard.
More wrestling tomorrow.
