NWA returning to TV, Bayley vs WWE, Another PPV match dropped, Next years Slam venue named, and more...

NWA TV:


Billy Corgan has announced a weekly TV show for his NWA promotion.

Yes! Yes! Yes!:


Kofi Kingston says Daniel Bryan paved the way for his current success...

"Bryan is the unsung hero. And he's done a lot for guys who are undersized but showed they can still be cast in this top guy spot. He's done it so well for a very, very long time. And Bryan went through that identical journey I did to get to WrestleMania. He was badgered and blocked by The Authority and called a B-plus player, that was his story, and it became mine, too. We don't get a lot of shine in main events, we're not 6'8" and 300 pounds, so the fact that he was my opponent was poetic. I have a whole lot of respect for Bryan and the boundaries he's been able to break."

Bayley critical of WWE:


Bayley has confessed disappointment in the WWE Women's Tag titles...

"I just wish they were defended more. And that was our goal, to try and bring them to life and everything and we didn't really get a chance to do what we wanted with it. But, we thought the IIconics would have a chance and then they kind of didn't. So I just see so much potential in the tag titles and I still haven't given up on them. If it's Nikki Cross and Alexa Bliss who actually get time to grow the titles, then I'm happy with that. As long as they get out there and they're represented how they should be, I'll be happy."

Slam match dropped:


SmackDown fans may have noticed a second planned match for this weekends SummerSlam PPV happened, instead, on TV. Sami Zayn vs Aleister Black, followed the Women's Tag four way from Raw in being brought forward to TV rather than happening at the PPV.

SummerSlam 2020:


The Globe in Boston will host next years summer WWE PPV.

'Fast' feud:


Actor Tyrese Gibson has mocked the lackustre debut of the Rock's spin-off 'Hobbs & Shaw...

"I have to show my respects for one thing … He tried. Folks called me a hater … And attacked me for speaking out … Breaking up the family clearly doesn't have the value that one would assume it does … You know what maybe just maybe … The Rock and the crew will come dance with us again for #Fast10. We can all hug it out and get back to giving the true fans who have supported this franchise for 20 years WHAT they want … No hating I'm just pointing out the facts. In this day and age where everyone wants to be safe and sit on their hands and not speak on real s**t … When you do get attacked and well … That's that. Again my respects cause he tried his best … The world is clearly used to being severed its Thanksgiving meal a certain way … they want the table to 'include' all its flavors and all of its usual ingredients."
