It’s an unfortunate mistake. Wrestlers are a unique group of people as they are TV stars who are supposed to make you believe that they are larger than life characters who are being their real selves. That is one heck of a trick to pull off, but ultimately they are still people once the cameras stop rolling. That means they are going to make mistakes, which was the case with a former wrestling star.
PWInsider.com is reporting that former Impact Wrestling and WWE star Chris Harris was arrested in Kenton County, Kentucky on October 5for driving under the influence and being unable to provide proof of insurance. Harris spent about thirteen hours in jail before being released on a $2,500 bond, with a court date set for November 2. He last wrestled in 2018 but appeared on Impact Wrestling earlier this year as part of the build to former partner James Storm’s 1000th match in Impact Wrestling.
Harris was a heck of a star. Check out some of his career:

They’re doing ok. There have been a lot of changes in WWE as of late and some of them have gone a bit forgotten. Last year, WWE issued a new policy saying that their wrestlers would no longer be allowed to operate third party platforms, including Twitch streams. Instead, WWE would take the accounts over and the wrestlers would receive a portion of the revenue. Several wrestlers were unhappy with this and now we might know why.
According to the BBC, Twitch suffered a data breech this week, revealing tons of information about the platform. This includes a list of the income made by several wrestlers, as well as Impact Wrestling’s Twitch channel. The revenue listed covers a period from September 2019 – September 2021 and does not include any sponsorships or donations the streamers might gain as well. Here are some of the amounts, courtesy of Wrestlinginc.com:
Paige: $478,224
Zelina Vega: $341,748
Adam Cole: $318,080
Impact Wrestling: $69,140
Tyler Breeze: $43,755
Evil Uno: $35,742

What could have been. There are certain moments in wrestling that fans remember for a long time to come. Some of them are remembered for better reasons than others, but there are things about them that stick in fans’ minds for a good while. That was the case with one such moment about ten years ago, and now we are learning something new about it.
CM Punk was a guest on the Heel Turn Sport 1 Wrestling podcast and discussed his Pipe Bomb promo from the June 27, 2011 Monday Night Raw. During the interview, Punk said that he wrote everything in the promo and only gave an outline to Vince McMahon, with Punk filling in the details on the way. Punk did not tell McMahon the specifics of what he was going to say, with McMahon only asking him to include something making fun of Stephanie McMahon. The promo included some references to Stephanie, as per Vince’s request.
It’s one of the most famous promos of all time. Check out the promo, and some of its legacy:

She has a good reason. With so many wrestlers in the industry today, it can be hard to find one who really stands out. You get one every now and then, but one of the best ways to gain a reputation is to walk away when you are still a major star. That was the case with one of the biggest female names in wrestling back in 2015, but now we know a bit more about why she’s back.
Earlier this week, WOW Women of Wrestling announced their return, with the surprise of AJ Mendez being involved as both a color commentator and an executive producer. According to PWInsider.com, Mendez chose to return in this situation because it allowed her to continue with her projects in Hollywood. WOW Women of Wrestling also offered her the chance to be an executive without having to give up much of her schedule, which would not have been the case in WWE or AEW. Mendez will not be able to wrestle due to her neck injuries.
Mendez is quite the star to land. Check out what she could do during her in-ring career:

Stick around. Wrestlers have a weird career trajectory as you don’t always know when someone is going to hang up their boots for good. Some wrestlers are going to announce their retirements and walk away, but others have a tendency to come back over and over. Another rather young wrestler is doing that as well, and now we have an explanation about why.
Last week, AEW announced that Lio Rush had signed with the company. This came only a few months after Rush retired from wrestling, though he was fulfilling his contractual obligations with New Japan. Rush appeared on Vickie Guerrero’s Excuse Me podcast, where he explained why he continued wrestling for AEW. During the interview, Rush explained that his family took a financial hit due to his WWE release and his music career did not pan out as expected. He also did not get to spend as much time as he wanted with his children and moved to AEW as a result.
Rush is a heck of a talent. Check out who is coming to AEW:

A change of pace? With so many wrestlers on the WWE roster, it can be hard for a wrestler to find a way to stand out. There are only so many ways to do so and a lot of them have been done to death already. Some of them are a little more interesting than others though and we might be seeing one of the classics being dusted off as a way to drum up some fresh interest.
Asuka has been out of action since Money in the Bank in June. However, she has since sent out an image on Twitter, showing her face imposed on the Breaking Bad logo, next to main character Walter White. While not confirmed, this could suggest that Asuka will either be debuting a new character or turning heel upon her return. There is no word on when she will return, though she was last seen with a brace on her arm.

Welcome to KB’s Old School (and New School) Reviews. I’ve been reviewing wrestling shows for over twelve years now and have reviewed over 6,000 shows. Every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, I’ll be posting a new review here on Wrestlingrumors.net. It could be anything from modern WWE to old school to indies to anything in between. Note that I rate using letters instead of stars and I don’t rate matches under three minutes as really, how good or bad can something that short be?
NXT
Date: October 28, 2020
Location: Capitol Wrestling Center, Orlando, Florida
Commentators: Vic Joseph, Wade Barrett, Beth Phoenix
It’s time to rekindle an awesome tradition (assuming that still counts twenty years later) with Halloween Havoc. For the life of me I don’t know why it took WWE this long to bring the idea back but here we are, with a pair of Spin The Wheel Make The Deal matches for a title each. Let’s get to it.
The opening video looks at tonight’s card, while also showing the awesome WCW Halloween..

I’d call that a loss. NXT has undergone a lot of changes in the last few months and those changes may be continuing in the future. That can make for some rather interesting situations in the promotion, as it is not clear who is going to be sticking around and who will be on their way out the door. One longtime NXT star has suggested that they might not be sticking around.
NXT’s Johnny Gargano has updated his Twitter profile, removing all references from NXT whatsoever. Now, rather than a mention to NXT, there is a link to Gargano’s website. There is still however a link to his WWE.com profile. This comes after news of Gargano’s WWE contract expiring on December 3 broke in recent weeks. Gargano’s most recent tweet is a photo of his NXT championships and a question of “what’s next?”. There is no word on if Gargano will be called up to the main roster or if he has come to a new deal with WWE. Gargano did not appear on this week’s NXT.

It’s a homecoming. There are certain wrestlers in each company who just resonate with fans. Some do it almost immediately while others are able to build up the relationship over time. You know a successful one when you see it though and it can make for some amazing moments. That was the case again this week, as a surprise return blew the roof off of an arena.
The main event of this week’s edition of AEW Dynamite featured the return of the Casino Ladder Match. As usual, the final entrant was a surprise Joker, with Hangman Page returning and going on to win the match. With the win, Page is next in line for a shot at the AEW World Title. This was Page’s first match since the July 28 edition of Dynamite as Page took time off to be with his wife, who is expecting the couple’s first child.
It was a special moment. Check out the return, plus what else Page can do:

What could have been. There have been all kinds of stables over the years in wrestling and some of them have been rather popular in their days. Above all else, a stable can do well when there is a common theme between the members. Some of them are better than others, and the good ones are rarely rehashes of previous editions. WWE avoided making a similar mistake.
During a recent Highspots interview, former WWE star Mojo Rawley revealed that WWE was considering a reformation of the League of Nations. The idea would have seen Rawley teaming with Shinsuke Nakamura and Cesaro while serving as the group’s mouthpiece. This concept never came to pass though and Rawley was paired with Rob Gronkowski for WrestleMania 36 instead. Around the same time, Cesaro and Nakamura were teamed with Sami Zayn as the Artist Collective. Rawley was released from WWE earlier this year.
This could have been something. Check out the original team plus the potential members of the new version:

I don’t think I’m breaking any new ground when I say that WWE is not exactly on fire at the moment. WWE television has all kinds of problems with almost nothing positive going on a lot of the time. There are always going to be a couple of things that work out, and there is a reason for that: the wrestlers themselves. That is what we are going to be looking at today, because it is something that is forgotten far too often.
There are all kinds of problems with WWE these days, but the vast majority of them come down to the company’s creative decisions. You will see stories taking place in WWE that Steve Austin and the Rock could not make work at the height of their powers. Do you think Trish Stratus and Lita could get a story over a doll with evil powers over? What about Dusty Rhodes having to say the most ridiculous words ever uttered on wrestling television every week? Those people are talented, but their abilities do have a limit, which they have hit on a regular basis.
One thing tha..

Better than a title. There are all kinds of accomplishments to be won in wrestling and some of them have quite the prestige. Wrestling is a bit of a unique industry though in that titles can be won and lost on any given night. You do not see many accomplishments that stand the tests of time but one wrestling legend will be receiving one of the biggest honors available.
WWE Hall of Famer Bret Hart has announced, via an Instagram post, that he will be the first professional wrestler ever inducted into Canada’s Walk Of Fame in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Hart is part of the class of 2021, also involving other athletes as well as scientists and others. Hart is a former five time WWE Champion and was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2006.
Hart has one of the greatest careers of all time. Check out some of his greatest moments:
