WWE has added their first-ever DVD and Blu-ray on The Dudley Boyz to the 2016 schedule, according to WrestlingDVDNetwork.com.
No word yet if WWE’s first set on Bubba Ray and Devon will be a documentary or a match compilation, or a mix of both, but both of them will be involved now that they are back with WWE.
This will be the first WWE Superstar-themed DVD release for 2016. Back in April, WWE mentioned a potential Dudleyz DVD on one of their Fan Council surveys. That blurb read like this:
“Dudley Boyz Biography: Arguably the most successful tag team in the history of sports entertainment. Hear from Bubba Ray and D-Von as they discuss theirs trials and tribulations from the bottom to the top and what made they did that helped them become so successful.”

ROH was also down by around 40,000 viewers for the week.

A lot of fans felt like your Raw promo a few weeks back 'put Triple H over' at the expense of yourself and your feud with Rollins. How do you respond to that?
I don't pay attention a lot of times to what's out there, so this is the first time I'm hearing any news of that. I don't think there's anyone who's going to carry all that to Night of Champions and think about that, because the bottom line is, my focus is Seth Rollins. Triple H is Triple H, and he's worth the put-over ...
Should you lose at Night of Champions, does it paint a picture that you were brought to WWE primarily to put others over rather than enhance your own legacy?
I had my time. There's no question about that. For a guy my age to be where I am right now is, to me, next to impossible. And yet, I'm here. It's not about Sting, not anymore. You're asking a straight-up question, I'll give ya a straight-up answer. That's it, and I am just fine with that.

New season of Total Divas that is currently filming, Naomi is back off the show, which she’s noted publicly, which also means her husband is off as well, and Amanda Saccomanno from Tough enough has been signed and is replacing her in the cast as we had said looked to be the case last week
|
Besides Amanda, the other runner up from last season ZZ also rumored to have signed a NXT/WWE deal recently.

Then came word on 9/14 that CMLL has banned any of its wrestlers from appearing on any shows that Park or Wagner Jr. are booked on, and has said that the ban is permanent. Right now, a few indie promoters faced with that ultimatum have chosen to use Park and Wagner Jr., who are bigger draws, which has cost CMLL talent work. That’s seemingly a huge blow to All Elite, if they are still around since they have no new shows announced. All Elite had drawn some great houses and some not so great houses this year doing shows that combined legends from the past like Octagon and Fuerza Guerrera, along with Park and Wagner Jr., and the top CMLL stars.

"I need to vent, and I hope that the people involved in deciding what's next for Lucha underground read this.
I have said many times in my career, that without fan you ain't s--t. Yes, there are big names attached to Lucha Underground. There are a lot of very, very cool people behind the scenes; many of whom I consider friends for life. Some I owe so much to for letting Vampiro live again.
And there are some people, talent, who f---ing suck as human beings. Maybe they are important for this business, I don't know, but as human beings, I can't name names, cause it won't do nothing but cause a rift. But I will say it - you suck. And I am sure there are people who are sick of me, and just don't like me, and I get that, and I don't give a f---. But, together, we are LUCHA UNDERGROUND."
Vampiro continued, this time speaking directly at the network executives responsible for making the final decisions on Lucha Underground's fate. He noted that "you can't buy fans", and that without the support of the fans all around the world, LUCHA is "just another wrestling show."
"We asked for love, we got mad, mad, mad love. Now we are leaving too many people hanging for too long. We are hot. [Lucha Underground] is the s--t. But you f--- around too much, and sooner or later people forget about you." ... "LU has made me feel like living again. Like I have a family, a home. And I miss my brothers and sisters."

Recent rant by Vampiro on his Facebook page regarding the growing frustrations with Lucha Underground's management not being clear to fans and wrestlers about the status of a second season. A lot of wrestlers have either been postponing indie dates because they don't want to be left out of a new season or gave up waiting and don't care if their indie dates clash with the new season.

Talks with the Young Bucks about signing a contract are ongoing and could be fairly close. The deal would have them continue working regularly with New Japan, and also allow them to work PWG. PWG is trying to put together a deal with ROH where they can also get Adam Cole and Kyle O’Reilly back. ROH pulled their exclusive contracted talent from PWG because Cole was injured on a PWG show and they didn’t want to have their key talent risk injury because everyone works so hard on those shows. ROH also wasn’t happy last year when Michael Elgin was their world champion and he lost via pinfall in a singles match on a PWG show. The Bucks have pushed the idea that they can continue to do PWG. If they sign, that would mean there’s pretty much no chance they’re going to WWE until the end of the contract. They were put over big this weekend, winning the main event on 9/11 in Dearborn, MI, over O’Reilly & Bobby Fish, and the main event on 9/12 in Chicago Ridge, IL, beating O’Reilly & Adam Cole, the former Future Shock team"
