• Bobby Lashley and MVP left WWE several weeks ago and are reportedly exploring the idea of reuniting their Hurt Business faction, with Shelton Benjamin, in All Elite Wrestling.
Recently, Totally Harmless Concept LLC filed a trademark for “The Hurt Syndicate”, the same company that previously trademarked MVP-related terms.

• During an interview with BuzzFeed Celeb, WWE Legend & Hollywood star Batista aka Dave Bautista praised CM Punk’s acting skills.
Here’s what “The Animal” said:
“You know who I think I really overlooked as an actor? I don’t know if he hasn’t pursued it as much as he’d like to because he’s still heavily pursuing professional wrestling, but it is CM Punk, Phil Brooks.
His potential in acting is pretty unlimited. I really want to see more from him in acting.
I’d actually love to work with him because I think he has a passion for acting, but I think still his heart is in professional wrestling, and until he’s able to let that go a little bit, he’ll never be able to fully envelop himself in acting, but I think Phil Brooks is a great actor.”
Punk has starred in movies like Girl On The Third Floor and Jakob’s Wife.
