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.  Images via WWE.com John Cena DOESN'T Want To Work With Another Wrestling Company!?  Don't let my clickbaity headline writing skills that'll probably make Fightful writer, Jeremy Lambert jealous (that's a lie, Omar).  John Felix Anthony Cena did say that at a Florida Supercon during a Q/A session (more like, Florida Superspreadder am I riaght? Oh and s hout out to Andrew Thompson of Post Wrestling for the quotes ):  "There’s a whole like ‘never say never’ philosophy and I’m also that way in life because you never know what life will bring you. But, I can with certainty say no." Cena is a WWE company guy through and through.  But, at this point, John is such a big star (so big in fact that his latest line of mer...

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.  Some images via WWE.com Alex Zayne On His Career In NXT.  Alex Zayne or Ari Sterling if you're the resident WWE shill like myself, is, of course, known for his time in NXT/205 Live where he's been mostly a mainstay in the cruiserweight division.  Unfortunately, he was one of the dozen people that was released by WWE weeks back due to "budget cuts" (because corporations are CLEARLY struggling with getting that "hard-earned cash", am I right?).  Frank Mandolini of The Last Minute Wrestling Podcast recently caught up with Alex and asked him about his time in the CWC (from Frank's press release):  " I don’t know, I always roll with the punches, that’s my whole lifestyle anyway, so as soon as I got the ...

 Since this week's news is slower than the way Peacock buffers, I decided to deliver my 3 viewers here a few news, guess?  Saliva On WWE’s Unreleased Recordings.  We all can agree that Saliva was THE band for wrestling fans in the 2000s, right? If you said, "well, I like Trapt" then I should probably stay away from you.  However you feel about this topic, is up to the individuals. Sticking to the headline, Saliva's lead singer, Bobby Amaru revealed in a discussion with Reel Talker that they recorded a new version of Batista's "I Walk Alone" along with another track but it wasn't released (from WrestlingInc ):  "They had reached out about us doing something a couple years ago. “I think it had to do about re-recording ‘I Walk Alone’ and doing something else. We ended up re-recording ‘I Walk Alone’. So it’s done, we just haven’t released it.” This is why I hate corporations. A New Trademark For Edge?? Speaking of said corporation, they have filed a...

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...

  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.  WWE Draft Date Changed According To Reports.  This ain't a brand split without a cohesive draft show, right?  From Andrew Zarian of "listen to my podcast now!" Mad Men Wrestling Podcast , the set of shows that will host this year's draft (RAW and Smackdown for all of you slow mofos) will possibly be delayed to a month.  The draft was supposed to be conducted on the 31st of August and the 9th of September.  The possible delayed date is now either the 1st of October and the 4th of October or the 4th of October and the 8th of October.  I am not a fan of the draft that is taking place right in the middle of the Survivor Series/October PPV build.  A draft that is scheduled weeks after Wrestlemania w...
