Lmfao one of my favorite IWC memes
 
Folks is are also on her the tap out situation too…

The ref warned AJ about it during the intros of the first match so yeah an issue with the ring itself.

Damien's foot getting caught up was a problem too. Jade inadvertely tapping out was bad but I also think Shayna might have been dead ass choking her lol people need to get a grip when it comes to Jade cause folks wanna play both sides of the coin. Folks dont wanna see her do the same shit she was doing in AEW but when she tries something different its a problem. She's hit that hot tag top rope splash a few times already so this shit is a matter of intentional hate.
 
The word making the rounds among WWE talents yesterday is that AJ Styles may not be the only WWE star heading over to Pro Wrestling NOAH in Japan next month. The belief among some we spoke with is that Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows will likely go to Japan for Styles' bout with Naomichi Marifuji to corner Styles and be with him. This would be the first-ever Styles vs. Marufuji bout. It is set for 7/13 at Budokan Hall.

The Uncle Howdy group will be revealed tonight in some fashion on Raw. We have been told Erik Rowan was spotted in Texas already today ahead of Raw, so it appears they could be there in the flesh at Raw in Corpus Christi.

Despite some chatter last week that Ricochet may make one more appearance for WWE, the belief among those in the company we spoke with today is that it's not happening and he's done. He is currently still listed on the company's internal roster. He is expected to be contractually free by July.

There was a lot of bravado and confidence among those in the TNA locker room coming out of Against All Odds, feeling that between the really strong show and the return of Jeff Hardy, the company was regaining momentum. There were several very high on the addition of Rob Kligman as the Chief Revenue Officer for Anthem Sports given his past accomplishments with WWE.
 
The belief among those we've spoken with is WWE World Heavyweight Champion Damian Priest is actually 100% OK after his match with Drew McIntyre. We are told there's been no signs that he's expected out of the ring or that there were concerns about changing his storyline plans after the company returned from Scotland. It appears he was either very lucky and/or doing an absolutely excellent job at selling.

There were quite a few people in WWE praising Drew McIntyre for his "grace under pressure" over the weekend given he was so far from his wife while she underwent emergency surgery while he was on the other side of the world. Believe it or not, McIntyre is at Raw tonight, so he's STILL keeping his WWE commitments even though he's returned to the United States.

CM Punk was announced as appearing at the Allstate Arena in some fashion for this Friday's Smackdown. The hope is he will be cleared to return by July. I wouldn't expect him to be in action this week.

We are told no real movement on the new Natalya contract within WWE, but the two sides are working out details and still negotiating.

Not many wrestlers have the ring IQ of turning a botch, and sellin it like an legit injury for the rest of the match.

But that falls on the equipment team who set up the ring does it not? Is it their responsibility to make sure the ring is up to par? Especially b/t matches? Jade fine. It happens to all of them.
 
As we noted last week, there's been a pitch for WWE to revive the old Bad Blood PPV with the idea of using it to house the latest WWE Hell in A Cell match as the center attraction.

We are told that WWE has been looking into potential venues for Saturday 10/5, which would literally be the exact date of the first-ever HIAC bout featuring Shawn Michaels vs. The Undertaker back in 1997.

One market we are told that they were at for the event is Atlanta. The State Farm Arena does not have an event on 10/5. WWE has not announced any TV taping locations for that week.
