The 5 News Week: Is Rey Mysterio RETIRING!?

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 news week. The post where I report 5 major or minor pro wrestling news, rumours and spoilers of the week that I don't have time to do it separately. Without further ado, here are the 5 news week. 

The IIconics SUPPOSED to APPEAR at The Women's Royal Rumble!? 

Admittedly, this piece of news is a week and a half old but you may think it isn't all that bad. 

Well, because of how the wrestling news cycle moves faster than an MCU Disney Plus show, this story might as well be 5,000 years old. 

From Fightful Selectrinos, the current Impact knockouts tag team champions were offered to be part of this year's stinker that was the Royal Rumble show, more specifically the women's Royal Rumble match but they refused. 

Mustafa Ali Has A YEAR LEFT In His CONTRACT!? 

My man Mustafa Ali be begging for his WWE release like Oliver Twist (can't blame the guy, I guess). 

And kinda bad news I guess for the talented performer and a certified face of humanity because according to said Al Fightful Bin Select, Mustafa Ali has "well over a year into his contract, at least". 

Bianca Carelli SIGNED with WWE!? 

Representation is important in any industry, especially in professional wrestling. 

So, it's great to see more POCs in the business, specifically, Italians. 

From the man that once rap battled against Akon, Santino Marella, confirmed in an interview with JBL and Gerald Brisco's Stories With Bradshaw and Brisco that his daughter, Bianca Carelli has signed with world wrestling entertainment and will be at the performance center in 2 weeks. 

Side note but JBL has a podcast now? What are the podcast topics include? Why bullying should be legal? 

Mauro Ranallo Has A NEW SERIES COMING!?

We all can agree that Twitter is legitimately, a blue hell something that The Rock has warned us about for many years based on the number of times he's used the damn word.  

One of the best things (wink, wink) about that darn website was Mauro Ranallo and his interactions with the fanbase. 

And now, he's hosting a reality-based show coming out on March 16th called "Beyond The Edge" being aired on CBS and Paramount Plus, you know, the thing Star Trek Picard is in. 

It's basically Survivor but celebrities (that is such a mid-2000s idea for a reality show, it's actually funny). 

When is Rey Mysterio RETIRING? 

Let's hear it from the man himself (from WrestlingInc): 

"I think I’ll step back once I feel like my son is ready just to take off on his own,” “That would be really helpful for him. I’m hoping that it happens within this year. For him to branch out and take care of things on his own. I’ve had the opportunity to be on the same house shows as him, with me wrestling in a completely separate match and him wrestling by himself."


What do you think about the news I just reported and follow me on the tweets @omartheplayaguy? Anyways, stay safe smarks.

The 5 News Week: Master P Buying House Of Glory!?, NXT TV To Air In Different Arenas!?

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 news week. The post where I report 5 major or minor news of the week that I don't have time to do it separately. Without further ado, here are the 5 news week . Sorry for not posting in two days. Just some personal stuff I gotta deal with and my Coherent Wednesdays review was a bit rushed and I want to nail it in a no pun intended, coherent matter if that makes any sense? Hopefully, my reviews will get better in the coming weeks.  Master P Buying House Of Glory!?  A great example of human beings having an unpredictable nature to them (ask Vince McMahon), Master P was interviewed somewhere in Manhattan and he announced that he has brought an independent wrestling promotion based in New York called House Of Glory or HOG which was founded by Brian XL and Impact Alumni Amazing Red in 2014.  PWInsider and Mike Johnson gave an update to this story stating that Master P will deliver the "muscle and production team" goi...

A Few News I Guess: Buddy Murphy Being Looked At By AEW!?

Since this week's news was dominated by some dudes named Phil Brooks and Bryan Danielson, I decided to deliver my 3 viewers here a few news, guess?  NXT Reshooting A Karrion Kross Scene Due To "Jeff Hardy" Chants.  This is sad yet f**king hilarious. So sad that It's more depressing than what they're doing with Baron Corbin honestly.  From bodyslam.net , they've heard that a segment that involved Karrion Kross cutting a promo before Samoa Joe showed up, had chants of "Hardy". The chants were so noticeable that NXT had to reshoot the segment.  I feel so sorry for Karrion Kross bruh.  Quick Thoughts On Smackdown Yesterday.  You would think with the intrigue being built following Money In The Bank that the outcome of this week's episode is a good one?  Nah. The show was just not good. Roman Reigns made a "missionary" line which I'm sure my Twitter timeline will appreciate. The only positive thing about the episode was the segment with S...

A Few News I Guess: NXT Japan Ain't Happening?, Thoughts On Apollo Crews' "Injury".

For those wondering, yes, a new instalment of The 5 News Week will be up next week (if you're new, basically every Sunday, I report on the 5 major or minor news of the week hence the name "5 News Week").  It's just something I'm releasing given that I haven't reviewed RAW yesterday. But for now, here are a few news I guess?  NXT Japan Ain't Happening?  The Japanese wrestling scene is something I'm not all too familiar with (I mean, you're the resident WWE shill, Omar, what do you think?).  But, I've been keeping an eye on news regarding NXT's latest expansion in the land of the rising sun for several months now and trust me, there are so many reports dating back several months about this topic that will easily fill 2,000 words. I ain't gonna do all of that.  Almost 2 months ago, Dave Meltzer said in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that there's been a worry regarding NXT entering the Japanese wrestling market. Here...
