Matt RiddleIn this interview Kurt Angle reveals he turned down an offer to be Matt Riddle's manager on SmackDown: "I think that Matt Riddle is going to be one of the faces of the WWE, he has all the ability. His personality is great. At first, it's a little odd. But once you get to know him, he's very likable. And that's what he's going to get from the fans. They're going to love this kid. And he proves it in the ring. He's phenomenal in the ring. There's no doubt about that. But his whole bro gimmick thing works really well. And he's going to do extremely well. WWE has offered me a job to manage him. Unfortunately, I turned it down due to a few different reasons, but I would have loved to manage him. It just wasn't the right time."

New WWE related videos are available below.

In addition here's a new episode of Ohio Valley Wrestling.

Here's the lineup for Impact Wrestling on AXS tonight. (IW)

* No. 1 Contender's Tournament finals: Ace Austin vs. Trey Miguel
* Kylie Rae & Susie vs. Tasha Steelz & Kiera Hogan
* The Rascalz vs. TJP & Fallah Bah
* Crazzy Steve vs. Joey Ryan
* Chase Stevens vs. Raju Rohit
* Locker Room Talk with Chris Bey

Rob Gronkowski exercised a release clause in his WWE contract because his NFL return precludes him from participating in pro wrestling, and for their part WWE mutually agreed to the release and expressed the desire to work with him for future non-wrestling appearances. (WO)

An anonymous source backstage at WWE said Nia Jax should be fired "before she cripples or kills somebody." (WO)

Last night on Raw, Kairi Sane's umbrella included a tribute to the late Hana Kimura that read "Hana-Chan, thank you." Kairi was one of the wrestlers online when Hana was tweeting about self-harm and tried to reach people in Japan to save her life before it was too late. Once again our condolences to all of her family, friends, and fans and heartfelt appreciation toward Kairi for the gesture.

In this interview Titus O'Neil talks about his recent charity work: "I just wanted to take ownership and have my efforts focused into one place. We established the Bullard Family Foundation about two years ago, but I've been doing work since college. Now it's about being able to identify and apply for grants and partner with the right organizations to continue to make the work greater. It's nice when you can speak on the behalf of another organization, but it hits home a little better that it's my foundation."

New Ring of Honor videos are below.

Here Montez Ford talks about when it might be time for the Street Profits to break up: "That's a good question. When is the right time for a tag team… I think when one of the individuals starts feeling themselves. I think when one of them starts feeling themselves and the other individual is going like, 'You know what? I'm better than this guy. I'm way better than this guy. I'm sick of this guy. He's late. He doesn't try to do anything. He doesn't work. He's not trying to be No. 1. He's not trying to be champion. He's not trying to be on TV Guide, TheWrap. He's not trying to have interviews at 2:30 in the afternoon. He's not trying to be No. 1 in the press. He's not trying to be God. He's not trying to do anything.' I think that's when it starts coming to the point where it's like, OK, when one of the guys feel like they have accessed me, if they have got to trim the fat, then I think that's when it's like OK. When other guys feeling themselves, when the egos start showing up, I think that's when it's time to cut the cord. But right now there's no egos, cause Dawkins is a pretty hefty guy, so I can't really defend too many of the big guys when it comes to like some type of in-ring competition. So he's probably gonna be around me for a long time."

Here Ric Flair talks about regaining his confidence in 2002: "First of all, I had no self-confidence and Hunter helped me with that. Vince was overwhelmed that he was getting to wrestle me. He goes, 'This is such a huge honor' and I'm going, 'Oh my God! This is not what I'm looking for. I need you to tell me that we don't have to do this {*laughs*}.' I was cosmetically insecure and mentally insecure. That took a whole load off me. As far as my self-confidence with talking, I'm great. Getting in the ring - zero self-confidence. I get there in November and in January Shane asks, 'What do you think of wrestling my dad at the Royal Rumble?' I'm thinking that's not what we agreed upon {*laughs*}. Sure enough, here we are."

In this interview El Phantasmo talks about Bullet Club: "Of course I'm glad. Look, BULLET CLUB is the single greatest faction in the history of professional wrestling. Look at the members that we have here in NJPW, and the members that were here and are now all over the world. We run everything in this business. I'm absolutely glad that they saw that attitude in me, and decided to give me a shot. I mean, if I went into CHAOS, I would have been just a guy like they all are. I would have been a Robbie Eagles."

Here's Bobby Fulton's cancer update: "Most of my cancer is gone except for a small tumor. They will be looking into it more on Friday. Please continue to keep me in your thoughts and prayers."

4:00 PM ET. A new video previewing tonight's Impact Wrestling is below.

Here's a new http://mandatory.com/wrestlezone/news/1187161-sammy-guevara-cody-rhodes-bad-guy-round-3-dustin Sammy Guevara interview.

Former SmackDown lead writer Chris DeJoseph's firing from WWE is said to be due to "inappropriate conduct and remarks" at company meetings. (PWI)

As of last night MVP has been transitioned from a producer to a full-time WWE performer. (PWI)

Tony Khan has banned both Linda and Hulk Hogan from all AEW events.

More on last week's fiasco with WWE's developmental talent being used at the tapings -- they were told over the P.A. system to "be more enthusiastic" during the commercial breaks and it was described as them "being talked to like a child." They were also not allowed to eat with the rest of the main roster talent. They had to pack a lunch and eat under a tent outside. (wInc)

6:00 PM ET. The Raw rating was a 0.49 18-49 demo and 1.728 million viewers. That's a four week low and down 3% and 1% from last week's 0.51 and 1.735 million viewers according to ShowBuzzDaily.com.
