Below are a couple of top WWE & AEW news stories of the day, featuring John Cena and Kazuchika Okada.
• During an interview with Sean Ross Sapp, former WWE Cruiserweight Champion Paul London talked about his relationship with John Cena and how Cena got backstage heat for making him look good during a match on Velocity.
Here’s what London said:
“Needless to say, we got along really well. So much, in fact, that he got in trouble after that match for giving me too much offense (laughs).
It was on Velocity, yeah. And I get that point because I wasn’t under contract at the time. But I was coming in fairly regularly to the point where I remember one time Johnny Ace was asking me who I wanted to team with and who I wanted to work with.”

• AEW Continental Champion Kazuchika Okada and Suzuko Mimori are celebrating the arrival of their second child. The couple, who announced their marriage in April 2019, welcomed their first baby boy in August 2022.
On Tuesday, Mimori shared that she had given birth to their second son.
In an Instagram post, Mimori explained that she had waited until after the birth to share the news, as she was new to pregnancy and childbirth in the United States. She added that a Japanese nurse provided care during her experience, and she found it enjoyable to experience childbirth in two different countries.
Okada made the decision to leave NJPW for All Elite Wrestling, and Mimori joined him in USA. It’s unknown how long Okada’s absence from AEW television will last.
His last match aired on the October 19th edition of Battle Of The Belts XII, where he defeated Kyle O’Reilly to retain the Continental Title.
