Fri. #1 is HERE. To help out subscribe to Mistah MegaManFan or support us on Patreon. Don't miss Nickolye's 205 Live Recap at 10 PM ET! With the cheap plugs out of the way here's Friday's latest wrestling news.

The restraining order against Sonya Deville's stalker has been extended for a third time. Frankly it wouldn't bother me if they extended it in perpetuity. Let's not forget he was arrested after breaking into her home, setting off her alarm and causing her and Mandy Rose to flee on foot, and when the police showed up he had zip tie restraints like a seditious insurrectionist.

WWE is suing the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services. The sealed lawsuit was filed with the US District Court of Connecticut on Jan. 26 by noted immigration lawyer Martine G. Cuomo, so while we don't know the contents of the lawsuit, one would suspect WWE's gripe is that they've been blocked from bringing new recuits they've signed into the United States. (PWI) It's ironic they waited until POTUS 45 was out of office to file their lawsuit. Oh wait, no it's not.

Speaking of international talent, WWE confirmed today on their website four new members of the NXT UK roster: Meiko Satomura, Metehan Kocabasoglu, Tony Gill, and Bailey Matthews. (WWE) We already knew about Satomura yesterday though.

New WWE related videos are available below.

In addition here's a new Jordynne Grace interview from Tommy Dreamer.

Here's a cool (and unexpected) little tidbit -- Miro (f/k/a Rusev) bought Sheamus a life size Grelims replica for his birthday and delivered it to him personally. Well done to you both!

As if the Ryback vs. Mark Henry feud wasn't already ridiculous, Ryback now claims Mark Henry orchestrated people issuing death threats against him. That would be insane if true. (Spoiler -- it's NOT.)

3:00 PM ET. Here's something you don't see every day -- a WWE.com press release for 205 Live.

The members of the 205 Live Universe are in for a treat, as they will witness the first-ever singles collision between Jake Atlas and August Grey.

While splitting his time between 205 Live and NXT, Atlas has gone toe-to-toe with Tommaso Ciampa and picked up eye-opening wins over the likes of Tony Nese and Isaiah “Swerve” Scott.

Grey has also impressed in short order on both brands, teaming with Curt Stallion for a decisive victory against The Bollywood Boyz and taking down Ariya Daivari.

Who will score a pivotal win and perhaps improve their chances for a future NXT Cruiserweight Title Match?

For the second straight week, 205 Live will have the distinction of hosting a Women's Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic Match, as Ember Moon and Shotzi Blackheart are set for a first-round bout against Marina Shafir and Zoey Stark.

Blackheart and Moon form an intriguing tandem and one that will be teaming together for the first time. Moon has competed on Raw, SmackDown and NXT and is a former NXT Women's Champion, while Blackheart has racked up wins against Raquel González, Indi Hartwell and Xia Li on the black-and-gold brand.

Shafir and Stark represent another new tandem, and they'll undoubtedly be looking to turn some heads by scoring what many would consider to be an upset win in the first round of the tournament.

Don't miss what is certain to be a thrilling edition of The Most Exciting Hour on Television, streaming Friday at 10/9 C on the award-winning WWE Network!

Here Bill Goldberg says he used to get mad when people confused him with Steve Austin: "Well firstly he should be flattered because I'm a hell of lot better looking than he is. It used to really piss both of us off. We've talked about this exponentially because I like to say we're pretty good friends. I always took it personally and it made me mad because Steve Austin is, like, 250lbs and I was like 285lbs / 290lbs. So I thought that if they thought I was Steve, then they thought I was small... I took that as a slight. Not because they thought I was Steve Austin the awesome wrestler, but because I was small. So there's another layer to it. Throughout the years we used to both get really pissed off, now I think it's hilarious. We actually try to bring it up to each other when it happens. It's pretty fun."
