This past week, the City of Jacksonville twitter indicated that all city-owned venues would be closed, including Daily's Place. However, we've heard from the AEW side that the city's twitter account apparently though...

With Alberto Del Rio saying that he's in talks with WWE for a 2020 return, Fightful reached out to multiple sources within the company. One outright exclaimed "bullshit!" as a response to that.

We're told originally there wasn't supposed to be so much Triple H involvement on-screen on Friday's episode of Smackdown. Originally there were to be more guests featured, but Triple H's chemistry and social media reaction led to an on-the-fly call to have him stick around throughout the entire show.

It's an UNPRECEDENTED DAYLIGHT EPISODE of SOUR GRAPS!
Your host, Alex Pawlowski, will talk about how weird the empty arena felt, whether Triple H should be a permanent commentator (YES HE SHOULD) and how Bray should have been Joker to Cena's Batman all along.
It seems like the entire AFC North wants to wrestle.
When speaking to IMPACT Wrestling's Moose, Fightful asked if anyone from his playing days had contacted him with an interest in wrestling.
"Yes, actually. Gary Barnidge played for the Cleveland Browns and he wants to be a wrestler," said Mo...

Here's a cleaner version of what happened in the commercials of the first match. This aired on TV in Israel and is fascinating
2020-03-14 17:43:32 +0000 UTC View Post- WWE had a crew of dozens there at the WWE Performance Center to prep for Smackdown
- There were several wrestlers who weren't on Smackdown that were still brought to the PC on Friday.
- We're told tonight was very much of a "test run" and to expect Raw to be much different
As mentioned on the Fightful Podcast, contrary to rumors, WWE didn't call Jeff Hardy's move the "Twist of Fury," because Matt Hardy owns "Twist of Fate." Matt in fact doesn't own that trademark.
However, we were told that WWE officials mentioned to Jeff possibly using the "delete" terminology. Matt Hardy does in fact ow...
