For those still wondering why the Mickie James/Asuka match on Raw Monday night had a flunky finish... well it's b/c Mickie is apparently very good at selling. James sold the application of the Asuka lock so well that the referee thought she had legit injured her shoulder and called the match off

A credible wrestling source says a WWE wrestler has confided in them that the wrestler has already decided to not re-up with WWE once his or her current contract expires, though this source wouldn't give up the name. That has led to wild speculation of who it could be... with names like Adam Cole, Mustafa Ali, or Cesaro all being thrown around, but none confirmed.

WWE apparently already sees Dominik Mysterio as one of the top babyfaces on Raw... so expect him to continue to be pushed. One of the key pieces of evidence of this... the WWE Network special on Dominik on his SummerSlam match, esp. the ending where Vince personally congratulated Dom on a nice performance

WWE's internal roster list of Retribution members has apparently been leaked... so here are the currently expected squad of WWEfa (with 1 top name lacking from it)... Dominic Dijakovic, Mia Yim, Mercedes Martinez, Shane Thorne (he should help his old NXT tag partner get away from the Monday Night Messiah), & former Raw broadcast team member Dio Maddin (you may also remember him from his role of Hurt Business murder victim on a previous episode of Raw Underground)

By the way... Dio was easily spotted in this week's show ending scuffle with Keith Lee, Drew McIntyre, & the Hurt Business b/c the mask he chose to wear to the ring revealed WAYYYYYY too much of his face

You can add Aleister Black & Andrade to the list of wrestlers who will see their stocks fall in WWE thanks to Paul Heyman no longer being around to produce Raw... however... Angel Garza's stock is only expected to rise, esp. now since Zelina is no longer Andrade & Angel's manager and they're free to fight amongst themselves

Alex & Tony are apparently not good heel names in Vince McMahon's mind... thus why Alexander Rusev & Antonio Cesaro lost their first names when they went up to the main roster

Lana (& Miro... b/c happy wife happy life) sent out a social media warning... saying they may shut down all their social media due to cyber bullying being shot in Lana's direction, esp. when compared to stuff done by her #BOAT tag team partner Natalya, saying it's impacting her mental health

And tonight... the AEW vs. NXT Wednesday Night War resumes after nearly a month of being on separate nights

AEW Dynamite comes from Daily's Place in Jacksonville, Fla.

There will be a parking lot brawl for the honor of Sue Beretta as Best Friends duke it out with Proud & Powerful

Jurassic Express try to earn themselves an AEW Tag Team Championship opportunity when they take on current champs FTR in a non-title match

Speaking of the AEW tag team division... Chris Jericho & Jake Hager start their climb in the tag team standings with a match tonight against Private Party

The NWA Women's World Championship will be on the line as Thunder Rosa defends her title against Ivelisse

"Hangman" Page tries to prove his love to The Elite in a match against Frankie Kazarian of SCU

MJF will face a jobber

Promos will be cut by Jake "The Snake" Roberts and his protege "The Murderhawk Monster" Lance Archer, AEW World Champion Jon Moxley, as well as Kip Sabian & THE Best Man in AEW Miro

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile... NXT on USA comes from Full Sail University in Winter Park, Fla.

2 championships will be on the line tonight...

Damian Priest defends the NXT North American Championship against Timothy Thatcher

Breezango defends the NXT Tag Team Championship against former champions IMPERIUM's Fabian Aichner & Marcel Barthel

Shotzi Blackheart tries to earn herself a NXT Women's Championship opportunity as she gets a non-title match against the champion Io Shirai

Drake Maverick better have his head on a swivel as he teams with Killian Dain to face the Undisputed ERA's Roderick Strong & Bobby Fish

Who's that trying to steal Baby Yoda in The Mandalorian? Why... it's BO$$ TIME

Well that sucks for Mickie, I guess. It was a fairly entertaining match up until that point.

Ali is the only one of those three not heavily involved with Xavier Woods’ YouTube channel, which WWE does have a hand in...if that means anything.

Mia Yim


I recognized her in one of the recent promos. Appropriate build and skin color...and eye shape.

AEW needs to rebrand to All Ex WWE if they just continue to take whoever is cast off from WWE and push them. Same exact mistakes TNA made. The only wrestlers getting pushes in the AEW are those from the Elite and WWE.

Hi people! Hoping for a good show or two tonight. I guess Gibbs solved the crime before I got home.

MJF, Orange, Darby, and Ricky Starks are none of those things.

And also they're a new company, you gotta have name recognition to draw interest. I've think they've done a good job bringing along their homegrown talent and introducing them into the top of the card.
