The overexposure of Charlotte Flair may finally end... as she is reportedly out for some "elective" surgery and taking some PTO that could see her gone potentially all the way to Royal Rumble.

So with no Ronda Rousey, no Becky Lynch, and now no Charlotte Flair... WWE has an issue with its women's division b/c who else built up to a top level is currently available outside of Bayley, Sasha, & Asuka?

So for tonight's previews

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

Matt Hardy was supposed to face off against Sammy Guevara tonight... but with Guevara's 4-year old remarks about wanting to have intercourse with Sasha Banks against her will coming back out due to the #SpeakingOut movement afflicting the wrestling world right now... Sammy has been suspended without pay for the foreseeable future

But that won't halt Matt Hardy's battles with the Inner Circle as stepping into Guevara's place will be fellow IC member Santana... and for this match fans will somehow get to decide which version of Matt Hardy will battle Santana tonight.

AEW Champion Jon Moxley will be in a match tonight where Taz will be assisting with color commentary.

Chris Jericho & Orange Cassidy will have a face-to-face ahead of their match at the 2-week Fyter Fest version of Dynamite event

The question of "will Colt join the Dark Order" may or may not be answered tonight as Cabana teams up with The Exalted One, Mr. Brodie Lee against Joey Janela & Sonny Kiss

Tonight's show will also feature a lumberjack match pitting Luchasaurus against Wardlow

AEW Women's Champion Hikaru Shida will be in a match against someone that we may or may not care about

And there will be a "press conference" for a TNT Championship match for Fyter Fest... which starts next week

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

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

NXT coming in hot for the next few weeks to counter AEW's Fyter Fest... starting with tonight's big main event

Keith Lee defends the NXT North American Championship in a triple threat against Johnny Gargano & Finn Balor... the winner of which takes on Adam Cole in 2 weeks with both the NXT Championship & NXT North American Championship on the line

Damian Priest takes on the fabulous hat of Cameron Grimes

Karrion Kross faces the challenge of Bronson Reed... which means Scarlett should be around somewhere

Speaking of potential new members of The Dark Order... and no we're not talking about G or TRC

What's the bet on this? New face? Bigger tits? arse implants?

Vince is already done with Shayna and Liv. Shayna should be the top heel right now. Sarah Logan also announced she's stepping away from wrestling so don't expect her to come back or sign anywhere when she's able to.

Mox has been replaced by Brian Cage. He had contact with someone (Raylene) who had contact with someone with the kung flu. That leads to the bigger story

I'm hoping it's something that fixes a nagging injury issue and not a cosmetic thing

Vince & Bruce are already working on killing the push of some of the young guys that Heyman was trying to let shine... both men and women

I hadn't heard this before I made the preview

I assume that guarantees that the Mox/Cage title match will be on week 2 of Fyter Fest (7/7)

One source believed the positives to be in the "two dozen range" but PWInsider.com has not yet been able to vet that is accurate beyond confirming that there are multiple positives. The positives are said to be across the board - talents, production and staff.

What this means for Friday's scheduled Smackdown taping remains to be seen. The promotion informed talents that anyone working the taping take a nose swab before the tapings. Talents have been asked to isolate following their latest COVID-19 tests prior to tomorrow's taping and have also been requested to let the company know if they are planning to travel outside of their local areas beyond for WWE work.

We are told Friday's Smackdown episode would likely need to be re-written in the wake of the positives.

It should also be noted that WWE had "friends and family" at their last two TV tapings, the second of which was pushed back a day after a positive COVID-19 test came back for a WWE NXT developmental talent who was last at the PC on 6/9. PWInsider.com is told that if Friday's taping moves forward, there will not be "friends and family" invited.

The PC is a mess right now.

You're forgetting about the most dynamic and brutally powerful women's superstar to ever grace the squared circle.

Nia. fricking. Jax.

If AEW had even a little bit of the star power that WCW had in 96/97 they could be doing the same thing that Bischoff did to WWE because WWE is in that same funk where they have 0 legit stars and no idea how to build one. Sadly AEW does not have that talent.

Also, this no crowd virus thing isn't helping.

Wardlow looked really good here. Luchasaurus' kicks still look weak. That spot where everybody stands around to catch the guy about to jump always looks stupid.

Commish checking in. I’ll probably do a trivia question tonight. Of course there are still 3 unnamed wrestlers in the “Who are TRC’s top 10 favorite wrestlers of the 1980s” contest.

Brian Cage has "fast-twitch" muscles? But he looks white to me.

Maybe....but the Demott hill is a strange one to die on for WWE....especially considering he was out anyway a couple years after the former Judas Devlin.

He should bring back Judas Devlin in AEW.

ETA Or he could at least bring back the Vibora mask from Luch Underground....it is way better than his current mask or at least the last one I saw.

Not a fan of lucca. He seems slow in the ring.

I'm gonna guess Jaunita Wright aka Sapphire!

She's just a common woman after all.
