You may have seen at NWA's presser this week, Billy Corgan said the NWA would do business with anyone but IMPACT. In reaching out to both companies, this was the first that IMPACT reps had heard of the situation, and NWA wouldn't elaborate on what caused the issues.

- AEW plans on having a post-show scrum for their TNT debut, as they have for their pay-per-view shows.
- Regarding rumors that WWE has "tabled" negotiations with NWA for the WWE Network, WWE sources confirmed to us that the story wasn't exactly accurate. WWE has paused negotiations and discussions with many companies regarding this. NWA was going through with tapings and shopping their show regardless.

AEW got a lot of grief for their UK TV deal announcement yesterday. We were told by those within AEW that the initial ITV aspect of the deal was announced early due to an eager employee on the ITV side. AEW feels there is room to grow on the ITV side if the show proves successful
SEScoops issued a report that NWA reps said was largely inaccurate, noting fallen negotiations with WWE. We can confirm NWA has spoken with WWE, but nothing beyond that as far as details. More should be a...

The Top Guys could still be top free agents come next year, as The Revival still hadn't signed new deals as of a couple of weeks ago.
Fightful Select was told WWE has made some renewed efforts to sign Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder, the Revival. As of Clash of Champions' Smackdown Title win, the two had not signed new deals, but anything that's happened since then is unknown. Both men made their issues known with how the WWE tag team divisions are booked earlier this year...

For those wondering, as of now -- 4:30 PM EST, Vince McMahon had not been seen at Full Sail University's venue, the site of tonight's NXT on USA show. From an in-person perspective, McMahon is hands off.
Also, we've been told "at least one" surprise is planned for tonight, but otherwise the show is expected to follow the same spirit of NXT. We weren't given any indication of what that surprise would be.
