Legendary pro wrestling manager Jim Cornette has donated $5,000 to a GoFundMe Campaign launched to support an auto worker in Detroit that called out United States President and WWE Celebrity Hall of Famer Donald Trump for allegedly protecting deceased pedophile Jeffrey Epstein when Trump was making an appearance at his auto plant, according to Michigan Live.

Trump responded by telling the worker, TJ Sabula, "F*** you" twice and giving him the middle finger.

Sabula was suspended by his employer, Ford, while he is investigated for the incident, but the Auto Workers Union have publicly stated they stand with him for his right to express his opinion and that the union will protect him to the best of their ability.

“If anyone knows TJ Sabula I have a thank-you, a handshake and a check for $5,000 ready for him” Cornette wrote on his Twitter account. His wife then made the donation for him once they were made aware of the GoFundMe Campaign.

The release of government files related to Epstein have been a political mindfield over the last year with Trump attempting to deflect away from having them released, but later signing their release into law after the U.S. Congress overwhelmingly passed the Epstein Files Transparency Act, forcing the Department of Justice to release unclassified documents related to Epstein and past investigations into him.

Powerhouse Hobbs is WWE bound.

Fightful Select reported the news on January 14, and now Hobbs' deal has expired. There is no non compete, and he could appear as soon as WWE Smackdown if a deal gets done.

Wrestlevotes Radio on Fightful Select confirmed with their sources The expectation is that Hobbs will at least have an altered name (although simply "Hobbs" could be possible).

Sean Ross Sapp learned that contract negotiations between AEW and Hobbs started in recent months, and offers were made all the way up to this week. It was communicated to us that the offers were "huge," but Hobbs had made his mind up and tried to not burn bridges on the way out. Sean Ross Sapp has heard that the pitch was for Hobbs to appear on the main roster.

WWE had maintained interest over the course of a number of years in Hobbs, and tried to make contact with him in the Dan Ventrelle era as well.

While nothing has been officially announced, the belief among those we've spoken to within WWE is that this Saturday's AAA on FOX premiere in Mexico will stream on the WWE YouTube here in the States.

Omos, Jack Cartwheel, The Motor City Machine Guns, Lola Vice, Apollo Crews and Elio Lefleur are all slated for the taping.

All he knows how to do is lats, chest and arms.

I am speaking from the perspective that has analyzed his workouts during his peak.

Cardio or conditioning was never part of his routine and I think that can be proven by how puffed out he has looked his entire career.

He has never figured out how to have that dry/lean look that lashley, warrior, drew, rude or luger had.

I think it bothers him tremendously and he holds wrestlers back that have figured out what he was incapable of figuring out before a surgeon put a slush box in his chest.

he looked pretty lean in 2008
but this is more of your wheelhouse so you may have a different definition of lean that I do
 
TNA has undergone rewrites and will be changing some plans leading into tonight's Thursday Night Impact on AMC premiere and Saturday's Genesis PPV, PWInsider.com can confirm.

The changes were brought about by a number of international talents no longer being able to perform as processing for 2026 work visas had not been completed by the United States government.

The issues would impact talents from The UK and Canada specifically. X-Division Champion Leon Slater would be the biggest name waiting for approval that we have heard.

There are several staffers from Canada who were also not able to travel to work while the processing was still in flux.

TNA management and creative have been working on alternative plans and ideas over the last 48 hours we are told.

More as we confirm.
