Matt HardyVia social media Matt Hardy shared a photo of a car accident he was involved in and offered this free advice to everyone: "Don't rubberneck at wrecks or you'll create another one. Thank goodness, I'm invincible."

Hardy isn't booked for AEW Dark this week, but with 16 things already on tap for this loaded show, I don't know where he or Private Party would fit into the YouTube broadcast anyway. (AEW)

In a video on Twitter Mick Foley discussed his lingering COVID-19 systems including loss of strength and fatigue. "Bottom line: stay safe, mask up; believe me, you DON'T want to get this virus! It sucks."

Here former NWA champion Tim Storm says he's not done in the ring: "You know I'm at a point in my career that I'm not done, I'm not done in the ring. I don't have a timetable. I don't know when that is going to happen but I also have always said that I never want to be that guy that stays too long and embarrasses himself or the business. That's a fine line but here's where I'm at today in the business and I'm trying to do that in other places…it's passing on that knowledge. Same thing that people did for me, and one of the ways this business has changed, not necessarily in a positive way, is we don't have those opportunities to get in a car with veterans and drive six hours and listen and be quiet. That's how you build your knowledge base. We don't have that anymore. I got that opportunity with some great guys that I respect. Now what I've got left, I want to continue telling good stories in the ring, I want to be involved when it's time to step away from in-ring. I want to stay involved whether that's on the production side, the agent side, something. Because whatever knowledge I've got that was handed down to me I want to give to somebody else, and I think that's the right thing to do in the business. I'm passionate about the wrestling. I don't want it to be gone. I wish I could wrestle forever, I can't, but when that's gone I still am passionate enough about it that I want to be involved."

A MLW press release is below.

MLW has learned that league officials are in talks with AAA's home office in Mexico about Laredo Kid defending the AAA World Cruiserweight Championship in an MLW soon.

One source has indicated talks are moving along at a pace that could see a title bout as "imminent."

MLW is exploring challengers that would make AAA's cruiserweight weight limit. Names reportedly batted around, include: Zenshi, Hijo de LA Park, Ikuro Kwon, and Bu Ku Dao.

Laredo Kid won the title February 16, 2019 at AAA's Conquista Total event in Morelia, Michoacán, Mexico. Since then, the sensational luchador has defended the title at several AAA marquee cards in the main event.

Those close to Laredo Kid believe AAA's top luchador wants a title versus title bout against the newly minted World Middleweight Champion Lio Rush.

Since the The Restart, Court Bauer has talked of "interpromotional dream matches" and Laredo Kid vs. Lio Rush certainly fits the bill for one.

Could Laredo's AAA title defense be a prelude to a battle of the belts between Rush and Laredo?

Speaking of Major League Wrestling a new Richard Holliday video is below.

In this interview Jake Crist talks about wanting to be better known as a singles wrestler: "Yeah. I'm excited. I've been a part of a group my whole entire 18 years of being a wrestler. So it's like either tag team or in a group. I loved it. Don't get me wrong, I mean, I love my experience, but now it's time to bet on myself. It's time to see what I have to offer. Not only to myself but to my fans as well. I want to prove to everybody that I am a singles star."

Here Madison Rayne talks about how she'd like to be remembered: "The opportunities that I've been given, I'd like to think I've been given all of them because I worked hard and I was easy to work with. And so, I'd like to think that that would be part of my legacy, that I was easy to work with, that I was someone that everybody enjoyed being in the ring and in the locker room with, that I was somebody who was giving. I'll never ever forget my first night at TNA, having my tryout match against Awesome Kong and it was when she was doing the ‘Awesome Kong challenge' and these local and independent women were coming in. They were getting three or four-minute matches, not much offense, and not much of an opportunity. But she made sure that I had enough time and enough opportunity in that match to really shine. And so that's something that I've always carried with me and I hope that's something that other women who I've worked with feel that I've done too."

The lineup for AEW Dynamite on Wednesday is below. (AEW)

* The Good Brothers & The Young Bucks vs. The Dark Order
* Chris Jericho & MJF vs. Varsity Blondes
* Britt Baker vs. Shanna
* Hangman Page vs. Ryan Nemeth
* Dax Harwood vs. Jungle Boy
* Eddie Kingston vs. Lance Archer
* Cody responds to Shaq
* Sting and Darby Allin to address their Revolution street fight
* Jon Moxley comments on match at Beach Break

In this interview Doc Gallows talks about the Bullet Club reunion on Dynamite: "They've been waiting on it for years because even in WWE, having guys come from Bullet Club, they never got that moment with the group or any variation of the group. Once Kenny raised too sweet up, once we threw it up, and the Bucks were hesitant but we all came together. That was the perfect way to go off the air, the shot with our hands in the air. That was good shit."

WWE's contract to air NXT on USA Network expires in October. (WO)

In this interview New Japan's latest President Takami Ohbari talks about the challenges of the global pandemic: "The pandemic has delayed our plans globally, but by no means has it put a stop to them. We're already making preparations to go all out as soon as the global situation is resolved; things overseas move at a tremendous pace, and that will mean I will take a more direct approach with things in NJoA in the near future. Having said that, we have an incredible team of dedicated and very capable employees over in the States, so it's entirely possible for me to manage our business in both Japan and America at the same time."
