Select Portions: AEW Morale, Roundball Rock, new hire (Patreon)

- Fightful Select has heard from several members of the AEW locker room who have had positive things to say about the morale and direction of said locker room of late.

- AEW's new hire Mike Mansury, who looks to significantly improve production, is at the show tonight. However, he's still observing and not on duty as of yet. 

- The NBA on NBC "Roundball Rock" theme debuted on AEW TV tonight. We've been told Tony Khan wanted the rights coming out of AEW Full Gear to coincide with the Best of 7 series. We're told that the rights holders were very reasonable and easy to work with, and made a deal easy to reach. It was noted to us that music right inquiries can always be a wild card.

- A reminder that two categories per night are added for Fightful Awards voting.

- We have a Grapsody interview with AEW's Willow Nightingale dropping later this week. Tier 2 members will get early access on Select.

- Talent that we've spoken to believe that ROH will be taped at Universal Studios in the future. As of now, that's an unconfirmed rumor. 

- We've been told that Action Andretti was under some sort of AEW agreement as far back as October. We don't know whether or not it was full-time as of then, as it is now.
