Originally Posted by Observer There may be a first on tonight's Impact show. Because of legal threats from Lucha Underground, when the Hardys vs. Super Crazy & Psicosis match airs on Impact tonight, taped from a few weeks ago at the Auditorio in Tijuana, the referee will have to be digitized out. Marty Elias was the referee in the match and he's under contract to Lucha Underground, who evidently was looking for the piece to not air at all. The Crash promotion and Konnen tried to be careful to keep anyone under contract with Lucha Underground who worked their show away from what was being taped for TNA, but nobody considered the referee. They had other referees there, but Elias, because he's bilingual, is the guy they like in the ring when American talent works with Mexican talent.

ROH Camps have been the main catalyst to over 70 attendees getting ROH opportunities on live events, some of which are on national television. If they were never seen at these camps then they may never have had an ROH opportunity. Now, the first ever WOMEN OF HONOR camp will be held to search for the next great WOMEN OF HONOR stars as well as two competitors who may earn a tour of Japan with STARDOM!

As seen on Tuesday’s episode of SmackDown Live, Bray Wyatt pinned John Cena to retain his WWE Title for the second time on a row. Sean Waltman, who was backstage at SmackDown this past week in Anaheim, California, revealed on his recent podcast episode that it was actually Cena’s idea to put Wyatt over at Tuesday’s event. “I’m not sure what the finish was supposed to be for the match last night. But I know this for a fact, that John Cena insisted on putting Bray Wyatt over again last night, insisted on it. That’s not just a rumor.”

Originally Posted by WrestleInc We noted earlier this week how John Cena is scheduled to take more time away from WWE after the April 2nd WrestleMania 33 pay-per-view in Orlando. It's believed he will be filming The Pact, which is set for a theatrical release in 2018. The Wrestling Observer Newsletter notes that Cena has a lot of projects planned for this year. He is currently off advertising for SmackDown events beginning the week after WrestleMania, including the June 8th Money In the Bank pay-per-view from St. Louis.

Originally Posted by Observer There’s nothing new on Drew Galloway or the Hardys as far as contracts go, but all three are expected at the TNA tapings.

TNA still the heavy favorites to sign all three to new deals.

Originally Posted by Observer I don’t know when or how extensively at this point, but the plan right now is that Angle will be doing at least some wrestling in WWE. He would have to pass a physical, and obviously at best it would be very limited

Originally Posted by Observer Jim Ross wrote that he’s been hearing that Angle will be inducted into the Hall of Fame by Cena

Originally Posted by Observer Kelly Kelly was backstage at Raw in Las Vegas. She’s one of the women who they called several weeks back regarding an idea for WrestleMania. Lisa Varon (Victoria) just teased something on Snapchat and since we were told they were calling the women stars of the past for an idea, she would fit in that category.

Current rumors regarding her apperance are either being involved in a Lumberjills type match or as part of a New Gen vs Old Gen tag match.
