The Scoop

Posted: May 28th 2023 By: Compiled by Oklafan Staff

NEWS
NWA's Crockett Cup 2023 will be held June 3rd and 4th in Charlotte, NC. NWA Magazine had a story entitled "A chance to be Tag Team Legends! Two Nights, 26 teams, one winner". In the story they listed the teams and their seeding in the tournament. To no surprise, current NWA World Tag Team Champions La Rebelion (Mecha Wolf & Bestia 666) are the #1 seed. Other seeds include:

#3 Trevor Murdoch & Mike Knox
#6 The Mortons (Ricky Morton & Kerry Morton)
#7 NWA United States Tag Team Champion The Country Gentlemen (Anthony Andrews & A. J. Cazana)

A. J. Styles talked about his match against Seth Rollins at "Night of Champions" as he landed in Saudi Arabia Wednesday. You can see the video by clicking here.

Among the content uploaded to WWE's YouTube channel was Mick Foley vs. John Cena vs. Bobby Lashley vs. Randy Orton vs. Booker T for the WWE Championship from "Night of Champions 2007"; and A. J. Styles & Liv Morgan vs. Damian Priest & Rhea Ripley from the May 23, 2022 edition of "WWE Monday Night RAW".

Vice TV's "Dark Side of the Ring" returns on May 30th with an episode about Chris Candido and Tammy Sytch. The June 7th episode will be about Magnum T. A. and the June 14th episode will be about Eddie Graham & Mike Graham and the family's history of suicide deaths.

Jeremy Allen White, who plays Kerry Von Erich in the upcoming movie "Iron Claw", talked to Esquire about his diet habits during the film. He said “In the morning, I would have waffles, almond butter. In the middle of the day, I was eating turkey patties and avocado all the time. It's really just gross. You're trying to consume as much as you possibly can, and, to be honest, you don't feel great. I was training as well, but, I don't know, trying to get that big, it's no way to live.”

Oklafan extends condolences to Toops on the passing of his grandmother on May 19th.
