PWInsider has confirmed with a source within WWE Creative that Orton is not currently figured into storyline plans for the next several weeks, including the Night of Champions PPV.

Hulk Hogan has landed a gig as the new spokesman for major gambling website, Fanpicks.com.

The website is aware of Hogan's recent scandal, but believes he deserves a second chance. "We all make mistakes and he deserves second chances," said one of the spokesmen for the company.

Hulk adds, "I am looking forward to connecting with all my Hulkamaniacs during some of the biggest games of the year and at upcoming Fan Pick live events in the near future."

The company is offering a bonus to new members who sign up and use the code "Hulk25".

The pair join Rich Swann as confirmed talents who have been signed to WWE developmental deals.

We noted before that Jeff Jarrett was recently in the UK to negotiate a Global Force Wrestling TV deal and will be returning this fall for more talks. The Wrestling Observer notes that Jarrett is closer to finalizing a deal in the UK than anywhere else.

Regarding the GFW Texas live events being postponed that we noted earlier this week, while Jarrett will be in the UK, the real reason for the shows being delayed is a combination of weak ticket advances plus the fact that WWE and NXT are running in the same markets the weekend before.

As of this writing, GFW only has the October 23rd Las Vegas TV tapings and the two UK live events on the schedule. The Observer noted that after those events, GFW is in a similar situation as TNA and Lucha Underground as moving forward depends on the ability to secure a paying TV deal.

If and when we hear of additional updates on the series, we will update, but the series will continue on the cable network through at least 10/3.
Small update to TNA's status with Destination America in terms of tv time left. International tv deals TNA had are already starting to drop.
