Below are a couple of top WWE & AEW news stories of the day.
• D-Von Dudley shared his dissatisfaction with how his sons, Terrell and Terrence Hughes (TNT), were handled during their stint in AEW, describing their usage as inadequate.
Speaking on Women’s Wrestling Talk, he revealed plans for TNT to transition to WWE’s NXT, viewing it as a fresh chapter in their wrestling careers.
Meanwhile, the duo has been active on the indie circuit, wrestling internationally and at events like WrestleCade. Despite past frustrations, D-Von expressed pride in their progress and enjoys occasionally joining them on their journey.
Here’s what the WWE Hall of Famer said:
“They had a little stint in AEW and it didn’t really go well for them there. I didn’t like their little stint there either, I didn’t think they were being used correctly or used at all just like so many other talents in that company that’s not being used correctly.
I wanted them to get out, I wanted them to go to NXT and try to get their feet wet there. That’s what we’re doing right now with them. It’s one of those things where I was happy they were able to leave that part of their life and their wrestling career and go start a new chapter.”

• On last week’s SmackDown, it was announced that Tonga Loa of the new Bloodline got injured during the Men’s WarGames match at Survivor Series 2024.
According to the Wrestling Observer, Loa will be out of action for 7 to 8 months and just like Bronson Reed, he’ll miss WrestleMania 41 as well:
“Bronson Reed is having foot surgery. He’s going to be out for months. Yeah, long time. I asked somebody there, and they said that he’s not expected back for WrestleMania.
Expected to be a long time. And Tonga Loa, I had figured seven, eight months out, that’s usually the thing for biceps surgery.”
