WWE got professional dancers in the Chicago area to serve as the Ghoulhausens for Danhausen's debut.

AEW had a pretty good idea WBD would be outbid by Paramount in the days before it happened, based on those that we spoke to.

AEW had planned a semi-permanent move to Jacksonville for Ring of Honor for quite some time.

WWE sources told us that the Dragon Lee controversy could be used to further the angle by it being referenced on TV. We received no complaints from anyone involved, and were told that if they didn't want it to be seen, they would have edited the angle for socials. It was reiterated to Fightful throughout the week there was no "accident" on the camera angle used, either.

As highlighted this week, David Finlay’s deal came together in the last week. He wanted to work back in the United States. Despite reports, we're told that he did not have talks with TNA Wrestling.

WWE wrestlers are adamant that the content of Rhea Ripley and Jade Cargill's tweets are not a work, contrary to reports. There is no concern that the two will work together.

Clark Connors was officially signed by AEW a couple of weeks ago.

It was reiterated to us that Road Dogg made the decision to leave WWE and had been expressing his unhappiness for a while. This also answers the question -- it was actually Dogg who let himself out.

Bayley went from the WWE tryouts in Florida all the way up to Stamford to participate in 2K Creator Fest the week the event occurred. 

Alexandra Williams’ promotion to Vice President/Lead Raw Writer was made official this week. She’s been Lead Raw Writer for a number of months.  She has a lot of support within the company from those we spoke to. She is co-Lead Writer on the show

We’re told that more WWE ID deals will be revealed in the coming weeks. There are numerous women’s signings that have been made. 

WWE has started looking for extras to appear at WrestleMania, but we haven’t heard of any that have been set yet.

I'm not even sure what you type in to get this AI shit anymore.

Shocking revelation, Sportskeeda is slop, and this isn't Jacob Fatu.

If Sports Bash posts it, it's fake. Mark Henry is not slated to come out of retirement at Backlash.

Any of these posts that start with "NAH DUDE" are sportskeeda clickbait garbage trying to goad you into clicking.

Same thing with the "oh boy, it's game over for ____" posts

A lot of these pages like Wrestling Pulse, just post random letters as a source. There is no LV, much less one that reports anything. He did sing on a Coolio song, though.

Here's another one that just offers up an opinion about CM Punk as news, and credits an imaginary source.

Nicely done on the "It was Dogg who let himself out." 🤣

It's freaking hilarious that AEW signs one or two people and the biased media portrays AEW as having a "bloated roster" and that they must immediately fire dozens of wrestlers meanwhile the WWE is hoarding wrestlers by the truckload every week and nobody says boo.

"it was actually Dogg who let himself out." Then I thought about that Red Bull commercial lol

Hey Sean, do you know when Gabe officially signed with AEW?

It definitely bodes extremely well for the long term of AEW that Paramount told them days in advance they would be outbidding for WBD

WWE has 203 people listed on its official roster page. AEW has 200 on its official roster page. That does not include specific to ROH talent.

Bayley seems like she could have a backstage role for life if she would wish to.
