Select Portions: Samantha Irvin, Okada, Smackdown Producers (Patreon)

- Regarding Kazuchika Okada and Barry Bloom, we're told that nothing is official in that regard as of yet, but Bloom has been after high profile targets.

- Fightful’s Corey Brennan is told that many working WWE Smackdown didn’t even know WWE Speed was happening until shortly before the show. We’ve learned that the plan is for the show to run on social media platforms if they launch it.

- Fightful’s Corey Brennan has learned that with the Randy Orton theme song, they did one play through live in the arena and decided to scrap it.

- To clear up a misconception, Scott D’Amore didn’t say the upcoming TNA signing was going to be the biggest in the history of the company (Sting, Mick Foley, Hulk Hogan, Kurt Angle, Tito Ortiz August 1 Warning), he said it was going to be a big signing

- We followed up on Samantha Irvin noting that it wasn’t her call to scrap the special Chelsea Green entrance. We’re told that word backstage was that the direction came directly from a WWE higher up and many were pushing for it to return.

- For those asking, nobody in TNA weve spoken to knows who their “big signing” is supposed to be.

- AJ Styles Promo: Michael Hayes 

- Holiday Havoc Match: Petey Williams
