29/3/2019

First main event:


AEW say Chris Jericho vs Kenny Omega will headline their first show.


Reigns reveals why he had to quit the ring:


Roman Reigns says his decision to vacate his title and remove himself from the ring was not because of his cancer directly, but a side effect, which had caused his spleen to swell to the point of being on the verge of bursting, leading to concerns of a potential fatal injury...

"That was the immediate physical scare of having to get me out of the ring. With a ruptured spleen, it's obviously going to be a major operation, but people can die from it. It was a situation we didn't want to put ourselves in, no matter how hardheaded I can be."


Goldust done with WWE?:


Goldust reportedly quietly let his WWE deal run down and decided not to re-sign earlier this year. He is said to be expected to join up with his brother in AEW after his 90 days, which is in May. Goldust, himself though, says he is still under contract to WWE.


TV to MSG:


WWE have booked MSG for two nights later this year, for their first televised events in their iconic spiritual home in a decade.


Seth confirms he is working hurt:


"Yeah, I did have a lingering back issue that I was dealing with. At the end of the day, I'm able to compete. I've been cleared by our doctors. I had to take a few weeks to rest but it looks like I'll be fine moving forward. I feel good. I've ramped up training in the gym and at my school. I feel really good. I feel healthy and, hopefully, I'll be able to pick that guy up and throw him around a little bit so I'm not the only one getting tossed around."
