Looks like Lio Rush may have quit WWE. He's removed all mention of the company across his social media profiles.

Also both Jeff and Nia are expected to make a return in the 1st quarter of next year so they both could still be at Mania

Wade Keller had someone in the know call in to the PW Torch Raw Recap show where they revealed the situation around Andrade asking fro his push in WWE. Apparently, Vince McMahon had a very blunt request before he would even consider pushing the former NXT Champion.

Andrade reportedly went to Vince McMahon’s office to ask for his push. This is when Vince McMahon looked him and said, “Learn some English and get back to me.”
Like, Zelina is enough of a great mouthpiece for him to actually never speak but okay... Jesus.

I was thinking about getting rid of Sky Sports, this has sealed the deal for me.

AEW on ITV doesn't guarantee success lol. WOS got put in a graveyard slot bc it couldn't pop a rating.

To be clear, AEW is on ITV BOX OFFICE, not regular ITV. You still gotta pay to watch so it might not be this big smash hit that everyone's hoping purely for that reason!

AEW is run properly unlike WOS which is totally full on scripted, AEW will as real as it can be right down to the promise.

As long as Vince is alive the WWE will keep regressing

The PPV is on Box office but the weekly shows will be on FTA TV if ITV pick it up which I am guessing they will do as just like the TNT deal AEW are not looking for massive pay deals

Also AEW could potentially become the most watched Wrestling programme in the UK because nobody is gonna pay the extra 30 quid a month to get BT Sports just to watch it

Like they clearly are, it has some of the best wrestlers on the planet involved and many more want to sign plus it's no coincidence Half the WWE roster want to move there

That’s because it’s new and exciting, the people running it are amateurs, they’ve put one show on and think they can rival the biggest wrestling promotion in the world, it might do well and I hope it does, but to consider it a rival for WWE is absurd

If this fails, ITV and any of the main TV channels will never bother with wrestling again. Im not sure what type of numbers they're expecting but they need to be realistic.
