WCW star puts Lesnar / Heyman on blast:
Disco Inferno says Brock Lesnar is redundant...
"Today, who are those guys? Brock Lesnar? Bro, [WWE] have nobody for Brock Lesnar to fight against and Brock Lesnar can't talk. He [has] to go out there like every week, regardless of how [much] you like Brock Lesnar, when he's not wrestling he's rerun television. He's standing in the ring doing nothing and Paul Heyman's cutting the same promo every single time. It's just the words are different, barely different."

Daniel Bryan asked the ''F'' question:
Daniel Bryan was asked during his trip to India this week, if wrestling is fake. He replied...
"You know how in art, there's this term, postmodernism, and it's basically, art for entertainment? I think we've become a little like that. I mean, everyone starts to knowingly say, 'it's fake, it's fake,' and then the word 'entertainment' comes into our name, and I think that the audience doesn't react the same way - you see something amazing, and you go, 'yeah, that's just a part of the script'. But of course it's also real, it's really difficult and you can get badly injured. That's why we've got to keep telling people, 'don't try this at home,' because it is entertainment, but it's also real. It's difficult, and it's painful."
New legend:
WWE have given out their third new legends contract this week. This time The Boogeyman was the recipient.
