• “This is a big hit to me” – Former AEW Wrestler Confirms TNA Departure
Former AEW wrestler Alan Angels (who used to be in the Dark Order faction) has confirmed his TNA departure. Here’s what the statement he issued on X:
“The thing about wrestling is, no matter how much you love it, it doesn’t have to love you back. Wrestling doesn’t owe anyone anything. Not going to lie, this is a big hit to me.
I love TNA. It was an absolute dream to wrestle there under a brand that I have watched since I was little. I love the locker room even more, and I’m leaving with nothing but good memories of the friends that I have made there.
I am once again starting over and truthfully I have no idea what’s next, but I will never give up. Wrestling is my passion and has been since the day I started watching as a 7-year-old boy. It’s all I think about every second of every day and I can’t imagine ever not doing it.
Thank you to anyone that ever even watched me on a TNA program, and just know this isn’t the end for me.”

• Superman Of WWE Is Willing To Sell His Soul To The Rock
On The Pat McAfee Show, The Rock revealed that a top WWE star is willing to sell his soul to The Final Boss:
“It’s not (about the) soul right now. Right now, it’s not. But, by the way, we’ll go back to it. I can’t tell you the texts that I got, and from the guys that I got, who are these top guys who are saying — one in particular, who I love, is my guy. I call him the Superman of the company.
He’s like, ‘Listen, my soul’s for sale when it’s time.’ And I said, ‘I love it. Let’s do it.’”
Many fans believe that the “Superman of the company” that The Rock is referring to is Drew McIntyre.
