Select Portions: AEW PPV, Tasha Steelz, Haley J (Patreon)

- We're told that the Toys for Tots/AEW deal was a fairly late announcement, but got approval during the broadcast last week. 

- The latest we’ve heard about the AEW December PPV is that it’s scheduled for Saturday, December 30.

- We've had people asking where Red Velvet has been. She's been sidelined with an injury most of this year. 

- WWE sources confirmed that Hollyhood Haley J didn't attend the tryouts due to clearances on her side, which she claims was her doctor not clearing her due to epilepsy. WWE sources told us they plan to have her back in for another tryout. 

- We’re told that IMPACT had reached out to several retired talent months back for IMPACT 1000 in order to help get them ready.

Tasha Steelz Notes from In The Weeds (https://youtu.be/HHvgj6TxQP0)

Says she has amazing chemistry with Deonna Purrazzo because Deonna helped train her. Says it’s great teaming with someone you’re close with and have a long history with because they can help get you together before and during the matches.

“You don’t want to go to the Undead Realm”

Took some time off to “up the flavor” and felt IMPACT 1000 was the right time to return.

Will join Deonna and Steve Maclin in beating up Joel Pearl

Would love to make magic with Trinity in the ring. Thinks Trinity vs. Mickie will steal the show outside of the Knockouts Tag Title match.

Did not push for Queen of the Mountain because she was at a disadvantage as the champion. Didn’t know what she was getting herself into.

Her and Jordynne Grace pushed for Knockouts Ultimate X. Believes there should be another one, but until there is, she is the one and only Knockouts Ultimate X winner.

Puts over the growth of Deonna. Says Deonna doesn’t let things get to her and she just overcomes. Finds Deonna inspiring. Says they also check in with their trainer Damian Adams to continue to work on things.
