Old boy claims creator rights:

Armando Estrada says he invented 'Talking Smack'...

''In December 2011, I drove to a Smackdown taping in Indianapolis to have a meeting with Vince. Finally, after blowing me off for most of the day, we sat down in Gorilla before the taping and I pitched him an idea for a show. At the time, WWE was looking for ideas to create content for this vision they wanted to call "The Network". The show I pitched Vince was a non-wrestling show that would allow talents that don't get much mic time, the opportunity to pseudo-shoot and help get them comfortable speaking in front of a crowd. The show I envisioned was titled "Smack Talk" and I was to be the host. Vince smiled, said he liked the idea, shook my hand and said thank you. I drive home to Chicago that night thinking I was on to something. Little did I know I was about 5 years too early. RIP Talking Smack, you were a breath of fresh air!''

Baby Bella:

Brie Bella says she has turned down Daniel Bryan's request for a second baby, because she wants a ring return, but does want to have another baby eventually...

"I have to make a comeback to wrestling before having another. I miss that ring. But I told Bryan, I was just like, listen I want a second one…because he's like let's do it when Birdie's nine months! I was like, 'Whoa. You're not the one who gets pregnant and goes through the labor. So no.'"

Morgan quits:
