    Jimmy Havoc signs with AEW.

    Orton’s willing to talk with them, they are said to have made a lucrative/too good too pass up offer to a top current WWE guy..likely AJ or Ambrose and Finn Balor posted a cryptic tweet with a picture with Jericho

    I'm thinking AJ or Ambrose are the best possibilities. Finn has always sounded happy to be in WWE and he likes to screw with fans on social media.

    I hope today is Kenny Omega day in Vegas! Double or Nothing Rally and Roster Reveal

    Drew Gulak vs Matt Riddle on this weeks NXT is pretty brutal submission stuff, probably the best two submission guys in the company.

    I think I’m going to Double or Nothing!

    What an awesome card they are putting together

    -Kenny Omega vs Chris Jericho
    -Hangman Page vs Pac
    -The Young Bucks vs The Lucha Bros
    -SoCal Uncensored vs CIMA and 2 TBD partners
    -Sammy Guevara vs. TBD
    -Kylie Rae vs Nyla Rose

    Probably 3 more matches on the maincard and 2 matches on the pre-show like at All In with... Cody, Jimmy Havoc, Joey Janela, MJF, Aja Kong, Yuka Sakazaki, Brandi Rhodes, Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D., Sonny Kiss, Jungle Boy & Best Friends, probably more AAA talent from their partnership, etc and whoever else they add via the YouTube shows

    LAX Lucha Bros was great this week on Impact. If you did not see it you really need to check it out. There is a reason these are two of the top tag teams in the world today.

    RVD and Sabu vs Lucha Bros April 4 Impact United We Stand on Twitch. Not sure how the twitch stuff works. If Impact is smart they would make this a free show. I know RVD and Sabu are past their prime, but for free I think Impact haters would tune in to see those two. Then you put a great card with it to get them to tune in again.

    AEW had over 25k sign up for the pre-sale and sold out 16k in less than an hour. Omega vs. Jericho for the first time in the U.S. probably could of sold out a 30k seat venue. But I understand the huge history of the venue of their first show and not wanting to take too big of a first step

    Undertaker AEW speculation

    Posted on his Instagram a pic of him and Michelle in front of a private jet with the caption “landed late last night” “must be meeting with someone important” “#ontheroadagain”

    Today he confirmed he’ll be at Starrcast II in Vegas on May 26th

    is he under WWE contract at all? Or is he just a freelancer but didn't talk to anybody outside of WWE like Jericho until he did NJPW and now AEW?

    I don't buy in that he's AEW bound, but stranger things have happened.....

    Probably not. That pics from 2013.

    I think his contract is up, he wants to work WM but Vince doesn’t have anything for him. If AEW who’s supposedly responsible for ponying up the cash to pay his 25k/hour appearance and signing can write him something fresh (can’t fathom it) I think he’d be interested in working the big shows

    2020 Royal Rumble will be at Minute Maid Park January 26th. I think the juice box is awesome for baseball but after seeing the Eagles concert there last year I don't think I would want to see wrestling there

    I might check it out. Not much of a fan these days, but having been to Wrestlemania 25 and seeing how grandiose it all can be, it's worth a look.
