Former WWE and current TNA star Taryn Terrell is currently taking time off from wrestling, as she announced over Twitter that she is pregnant with a baby girl. This is Terrell’s first child.
The rumours of Hulk Hogan returning to WWE following the recent “I quit” angle with TNA can be laid to rest, as F4WOnline.com is reporting that Hogan has re-signed with TNA. Apparently, the reason he did not go back to WWE is because Vince McMahon and Paul “Triple H” Levesque did not offer him what he feels he deserves to re-sign, and the figure was reportedly nowhere near what WWE has offered other past stars who have come back, such as the Rock and Brock Lesnar. What Hogan will be making for a year’s worth of work in TNA is roughly what WWE pays Rock or Lesnar for one match.
Bray Wyatt was recently injured at a house show in Providence, RI on Saturday. The injury is believed to be a deeply bruised calf muscle, and had it looked at by doctors today. Wyatt is being kept out of in-ring action as a precaution until the doctors update his diagnosis.
Darren Young, who recently came out of the closet, posted a video via his official Tout account, supporting GLAAD’s (Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation) “Spirit Day”, which takes place on October 17th.
Brandon Sylvestry, who competed all over the world as Low-Ki’ and also appeared in WWE as Kaval, winning the second season of NXT, has officially announced his retirement from wrestling. Sylvestry, who has mainly been competing in Japan since leaving WWE, posted the following on his official Twitter account: “Due to @alljapan_pw not honoring their contractual obligations of medical care after being injured in AJPW, I’m retiring from Pro Wrestling”
Speaking of NXT, current star Xavier Woods (who wrestled in TNA as Consequences Creed) has started an online petition to get the Big Show re-hired. Now, this is part of the bigger storyline, but it’s interesting that Michael Cole mentioned on RAW that Woods is the one starting this, when he has never been used on WWE television. This may be a sign that Woods will be getting his call-up soon, but that’s hard to say for sure at this point.
WWE Divas Champion AJ Lee returned to in-ring action on Monday Night RAW earlier tonight after being sent home last week as the result of a concussion.
A stipulation to the match between Ryback and CM Punk at the Hell in a Cell PPV has been added as a result of Punk winning a “Beat the Clock” challenge on RAW. After beating Ryback’s time by 11 seconds in his match with Curtis Axel, he announced that he will take Ryback on in a Hell in a Cell Match.
Also on RAW tonight, new WWE Tag Team Champions were crowned. Cody Rhodes and Goldust continued their win streak since returning to WWE at Battleground and knocked off the former champions, Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins. This is the first time, Rhodes and Goldust have won the championships as a team, and they are the very first legitimate brother team to win the current version of the titles.
