The Scoop

Posted: Mar 29th 2020 By: Compiled by Oklafan Staff

NEWS
A trailer for the movie "Power Bomb," which includes Britt Baker and Matt Cross. You can watch it here

A Go Fund Me has been set up for a knee replacement for Koko B. Ware. You can see it here

WWE’s YouTube channel uploaded Sasha Banks vs. Charlotte Flair from SummerSlam 2016, Brock Lesnar vs. AJ Styles from Survivor Series 2017, Edge vs. The Undertaker from WrestleMania XXIV, and the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal from WrestleMania 30.

AXS TV will present a one night only TNA special on Tuesday, March 31 starting at 10PM ET following the conclusion of Impact Wrestling. “For years, the loyal fans of TNA have asked us to bring back some of their favorite wrestlers of the past,” said D’Amore, “and after the incredible response we received from the now-postponed ‘TNA: There’s No Place Like Home’ iPPV, we thought an AXS TV special would be the perfect opportunity to celebrate our history.” Scheduled to appear are Rhino, Madman Fulton, Scott Steiner, Hernandez from LAX, Chase Stevens from The Naturals, Kid Kash, Johnny Swinger, Suicide, Manik, and others. Former TNA Wrestling announcer David Penzer and current Impact Wrestling EVP Scott D'Amore will be calling the action from the broadcast booth. “Right now we’re dealing with unprecedented circumstances, so here’s a great reason to stay home, turn everything off and enjoy the excitement that is Total Nonstop Action wrestling,” added D'Amore.

ESPN will re-air the Ric Flair 30 for 30 on Sunday at 5:30 p.m. right before airing WrestleMania 32, which is the AT&T Stadium show from Irving TX at 7 p.m.

ROH television going forward, at least until June, will feature shows built around specific wrestlers or tag teams. This weekend's show will be about Mark & Jay Briscoe. Among the matches airing will be the Briscoes vs. Kevin Steen & El Generico from 2007 and Jay vs. Mark for the ROH title in 2013. They are also pushing new YouTube content featuring C.M. Punk, A.J. Styles, Bryan Danielson, Samoa Joe, Steen and Tyler Black. There is a one hour Samoa Joe show with matches against Kenta Kobashi (an all-time classic), Kyle O'Reilly and Jay Briscoe. They also put up the Jay Lethal vs. Matt Taven 60:00 match.

Roman Reigns and The Miz being out of WrestleMania 36 wasn’t addressed on Friday night’s SmackDown. WWE continued to promote Goldberg vs. Reigns for WrestleMania, including re-airing Reigns vs. Triple H from WrestleMania 32 and Triple H being interviewed about how he’s faced both Reigns and Goldberg in the past. A face-to-face segment with Goldberg and Reigns was advertised for next Friday’s go-home episode of SmackDown. That episode will also feature John Cena responding to Bray Wyatt’s challenge for a Firefly Fun House match at WrestleMania. After The Miz & John Morrison interfered in The New Day and The Usos’ number one contender’s match last night, Michael Cole announced that Miz & Morrison will defend their SmackDown Tag Team titles against The New Day and The Usos in a triple threat ladder match at WrestleMania.

WWE Shop released T-shirts for Brock Lesnar vs. Drew McIntyre, The Undertaker vs. AJ Styles, Becky Lynch vs. Shayna Baszler, John Cena vs. The Fiend, Edge vs. Randy Orton, and Rhea Ripley vs. Charlotte Flair at WrestleMania 36.

Nick Chinn got married March 23rd.

WWE Hall of Famer and multi-time NWA Tag Team champion Ricky Morton of The Rock 'N' Roll Express revealed that he has been diagnosed with Bell's palsy. On his latest podcast, Morton recounted how last week he noticed that after he went to grab a cup of coffee, he had coffee dripping on the side of his face and when he went to check in the mirror, his face looked disfigured. "I thought that I might be having a stroke, but I went to the hospital and they told me it was brought on by stress and everything...but I have a touch of Bell’s palsy," Morton said. The good news is that it's starting to clear up and he can shut his eyes and talk. "I just wanted to tell the wrestling world out there...if you see me...don’t run off. I’m doing good. Physically wise...I’m great." Bell's palsy is the same condition that fellow Hall of Famer and AEW commentator Jim Ross has. NXT UK star Piper Niven also suffers from Bell's palsy.
