Online feud:

Austin Aries was the latest victim of Jim Cornette...

"Don't knock Austin Aries' talent, he's a good performer. The only reason he fails everywhere is because he's a miserable little whiner who thinks he should be pushed to the moon and knows more than everyone else. Wrestling and promos, he's fine. Probably needs a cheeseburger."

The last line drew the most heat, as he is mocking AA's lifestyle choice, by him being vegan.

Daniel Puder talks Kurt Angle incident:

"They stated no striking but everything else goes, so specifically that was said. They just didn't understand that I was a badass and I would have ripped Kurt Angle's arm off like the pansy that he is. I mean, he is a wrestler, this is the difference. An amateur wrestler is not an MMA fighter, so at the end of the day he can show up and state that he is going to beat Daniel Puder up, but he is a wrestler, it is called a match, it is not a fight. Two different concepts, two different worlds, it is kind of like a motorcycle racing a Toyota; I am the motorcycle and he is the Toyota; much faster, much leaner, much younger, he is the old man, I was the young buck. He grew up and met his wife and had the all-American dream, but at the end of the day I beat him. I kicked his butt, they cheated, Jimmy Korderas saved his butt, saved his arm, and his career, I would have taken him that night because it was their rules, not mine."

Paige bites back:

An online campaign blasting the women of WWE as whores, started in the build up to Evolution, because of the way they dress has drawn a scathing response from Paige...

''Wrong. We dress the way we wanna dress. We aren’t coerced or forced into dressing like anything other than what we feel comfortable, confident and beautiful in. The men technically show more skin than the women... does that make them “whores” or?''

Impact star hates wrestling:

Eli Drake says he is starting to hate modern wrestling...

"That's made me start hating the business, I'll be honest. The business that I fell in love with was big, strong, masculine men who looked like they were fighting. They all had characters and they all could— even the worst promo guys were good. Now? Holy s---. Good luck [to] anybody being able to handle [a microphone], it's bad. But everybody relies on goddamn flips and Cirque du Soleil spots."

Jericho refuses match:

NJPW have announced Chris Jericho's next match for them, unfortunately though, it seems they have forgotten to ask him. He took to social media today to tell them off, saying that just because they announce a match doesn't mean he will accept it, and he will not face Tetsuya Naito.
