- Much of the roster didn't know the finishes of their Hard to Kill matches until the day of the show. When we asked why they held off getting the championship off of Taya until the following week's TV tapings, we were told there was no answer going around backstage.
- Some in Impact that we've spoken to think that Tessa Blanchard has hurt her negotiating power over the past few weeks. They did state that IMPACT would likely do whatever they could to keep her even after the contro...

There's some polarizing reactions within Ring of Honor around some of their new directions.
Hunter Johnston/Delirious remains executive producer of ROH, and the roster is under the impression that there's already been some collaboration and ideas together with Marty Scrull. Delirious is still responsible for how the show looks and feels, and is expected to mentor Scurll in the role. Those we talked to said that Scrull is in "good hands" starting out.
One talent told u...

It would appear that Rush in Ring of Honor has at least been a success digitally.
The former ROH World Champion took the top two spots in the company's most viewed Youtube moments of this year. That's not exactly saying a lot, as despite a solid subscriber count of 418,000, ROH didn't have a single current video hit 265,000.
Below is the full top 6 list, from moments that happened in 2019.

A DirecTV listing and USA Network listing has Raw going until 11:33 PM EST tonight, prompting some confusion from viewers.
Someone with knowledge of the situation said that they hadn't even heard about the overrun as of 1:30 PM EST, and said that it "seems like a mistake," though they could hardly confirm that.
Fightful has contacted both WWE and USA Network/Universal about the overrun, but haven't heard back as of yet.

The stories of Tessa Blanchard's issues continue to roll in.
Fightful had been told by several within IMPACT that since she'd been with the company that many of her perceived attitude issues had went away. Members of the WOW Women of Roster don't seem to agree, even though they've been asked by David McClane to not speak about the matter.
A member of the WOW roster that opted to remain anonymous for fear of retaliation spoke with Fightful and said that Tessa Bla...

Ken Shamrock defeated Madman Fulton
5.25/10
- The lighting of the ramp and ring is great, but the crowd isn't lit well at all. It looks very ROH-ish.
- Ken Shamrock can still move around the ring pretty well, but he gets tired pretty quick.
- Ken Shamrock should not be able to do that dive better than the Usos.
- He does an odd waistlock slam on the floor and throws some SHOOT KNEES at Fulton's ...

- One of the ideas thrown around today in the wake of Rich Swann's injury was a possible handicap match.

Fightful has reached out to Tessa Blanchard personally about the accusations levied today, but haven't heard back. She was scheduled to speak at a Q&A this afternoon to promote Hard To Kill but we're told that is no longer happening.
In addition to this, we're told David McClane specifically emailed the WOW roster to tell them to give a "no comment" on any inquiries about the story. There were several other stories among the WOW locker room as it pertains to bullying, as well,...
