I didn't even say anything. Lol
 
Nothing wrong with Dragon Lee debuting at a house show. Test out his "WWE style" in the ring or help set it. Lets not act like Dragon Lee is a huge name signing. Its huge for NXT because they got a roster full of people a casual fan gives zero fucks about.
 
WWE is very close to closing a deal to announce Stacy Keibler as the female member of this year's WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2023.

PWInsiderElite.com is told that the two sides have been in contact in recent weeks. One sources described it was a "99% done deal" while another said they expected the induction to be likely, but cautioned the deal wasn't done as of Friday. Keibler, is, however, who WWE hopes to induct this year in Los Angeles.

Keibler, 43, first entered professional wrestling after a boyfriend suggested she enter a contest World Championship Wrestling was running to add a new member of the Nitro Girls dance troupe. She was moved into a full-blown storyline character as Miss Hancock in 2000, initially with Lenny Lane and Lodi before moving into a storyline with Ric Flair, the late Shannon "Daffney" Spruill and Crowbar that included a pregnancy angle that went nowhere. Towards the end of WCW, Keibler revealed her "baby" to be Shawn Stasiak and began managing him but WCW would soon shutter.

Keibler was brought into the WWF in 2001 as part of the WCW contingent that invaded WWF. After that storyline ran its course, she managed The Dudley Boyz and challenged Trish Stratus for the WWF Women's Championship. After the initial WWF brand split of 2022, Keibler landed on the Smackdown side, where she performed as Mr. McMahon's assistant, before being linked to the late Andrew "Test" Martin and Scott Steiner as their manager, performed as "Super Stacy" with The Hurricane and the late Matt "Rosey" Anoa'i and more, remaining with the company until her run on ABC's Dancing with the Stars led to far more mainstream opportunities.

On that season of Dancing, Keibler placed third for the season, but was an absolute favorite for viewers. She parlayed the run into a recurring role on ABC comedy What About Brian? several appearances on NBC's Chuck and CBS's How I met Your Mother, including a great scene where she got to slap Neil Patrick Harris' character Barney, a hosting gig for Lifetime's Supermarket Superstar and many other appearances. She certainly would play into the Wrestlemania Goes Hollywood theme.

Keibler last appeared on a WWE broadcast in 2019, where she inducted Torrie Wilson into the WWE Hall of Fame.

WWE announced Rey Mysterio as the first official inductee this past Friday. That same day, PWInisiderElite.com broke news that The Great Muta is also planned for the 2023 Class.

What the hell did she do
 
Why they saying bray Wyatt walked out last night


Bray Wyatt's absence from an MSG live event on March 12 has a lot of fans concerned about his status. Fightful has learned a little bit about it -- at least what those in WWE are saying.

WWE sources familiar with the situation who have worked with Wyat claim to Fightful that Bray Wyatt is currently sidelined with a "physical issue," and they're not sure on a return time as of now. There had been rumors that Wyatt had walked out due to creative issues, but thus far we haven't gained any information that would confirm that, and haven't been told that from anyone in the company thus far.

Bray Wyatt had been slated for other live events and episodes of Smackdown, but was pulled from those due to the physical issues WWE sources claim. However, even though he'd been sidelined, Bobby Lashley continued the feud without Bray Wyatt being there, including last week in a backstage segment. As of one point this weekend, Lashley wasn't scheduled for Raw.

Almost weekly, Bray Wyatt and Uncle Howdy materials are sent to the site of Smackdown, but haven't been for the last two episodes of Smackdown. We're told Bray hasn't been planned for creative for those shows, and isn't scheduled for Raw.

We'll reach out for more on this situation throughout the day, including regarding rumors of creative issues.

I mean at this point HOF is just a glorified recognition for contributing to the business for anybody that had a buzz in their name and for that she def deserves her spot.
