Fri. #1 is HERE. To help out the site subscribe to Mistah MegaManFan or support us on Patreon. Don't miss all of today's news updates! With the cheap plugs out of the way here's Friday's latest wrestling news.

From WWE: "WWE today announced that Pat McAfee will debut as the new analyst for Friday Night SmackDown tonight at 8 pm ET live on FOX." That's the good news. The bad news is that he'll have to team with Michael Cole.

New WWE related videos are available below.

Via social media Billie Kay issued a statement about her WWE release.

Thank you WWE, Vince McMahon, & HHH for the past 6 years.

They have fulfilled my dreams entirely from being a 10-year-old girl that fell in love with WWE from the moment I saw The Rock on TV and now I'm walking away with so many incredible moments from Super Showdown in front of my friends and family, to winning the tag championships at WrestleMania.

Thank you to every single person in both locker rooms and everyone that I had the pleasure of working with behind the scenes too. I love you all and will never forget your support and all the crazy stories we have together. I will miss you all so much.

Thank you to all the fans for inviting me into their lives. I hope I made you smile and laugh, that's all I ever wanted to do. I'll never forget all the kind words memories we've had together over the years.

Thank you to my family for always supporting this crazy dream and sacrificing so much for me to achieve it. I honestly wouldn't have gotten to where I am without all of you. You have my entire heart.

And thank you to my life partner, Cassie. Our journey started together and it's only fitting that it ends together. I love you, I'm beyond proud of you and I'm with you forever.

Lastly, thank you to everyone that reached out to me today. Knowing that I affected people's lives in a positive way means the absolute world to me.

Also via social media Nevaeh announced last night on Impact WAS her last night with the promotion. Coincidentally Impact just confirmed that Taylor Wilde is returning.

Al Snow is full of opinions (among other things) about AEW's factions: "It's like prison. I can see them at catering trying to shank each other. It can be very interesting because it could be a very interesting dynamic that leads to creating great storytelling, and that's all that really matters as long as you use it in the right fashion. Listen, within the realm of professional wrestling, because this is what it is, it's an art form of physical storytelling within the context of a competitive situation. That's the key. That's the logic within it. That's what allows an audience to follow it because without the context, without the framework for any type of story, then it's just a bunch of random directions and no real character development, but you need that context, that framework of a competitive situation. Always in those situations, you have to ask yourself, if it were real in the context of professional wrestling, you're a prize fighter. You're trying to make a living. You win, you make more money. If you lose, you don't make as much or not at all. It would behoove you, to benefit you to get people that would be willing to protect your back and watch a match, and at some point, maybe intercede on your behalf and ensure the fact that you're going to win. Now, if there's a group that starts doing that, i.e. the heels start doing that, of course babyfaces would want to band together to make sure that the odds were even that they were now watching each other's backs because the other guys were as well. You can tell some great stories that way, and you can build to a jumping off point that takes the brand, the promotion in a whole new direction."

Here's the updated card for Impact Rebellion on April 25th. (IW)

* Title vs. Title Match: Kenny Omega vs. Rich Swann
* X-Division Championship Match: Ace Austin vs. Josh Alexander vs. TJP
* Impact Knockouts Championship Match: Deonna Purrazzo vs. Tenille Dashwood
* Impact Knockouts Tag Team Championship Match: Fire N' Flayva vs. Jordynne Grace & Partner Hand-Picked By Jazz
* Last Man Standing Match: Sami Callihan vs. Trey Miguel
* Violent by Design vs. James Storm, Chris Sabin, Willie Mack, and Eddie Edwards
* Matt Cardona vs. Brian Myers

New Impact Wrestling videos are available below.

Yesterday's WWE releases can request that WWE waive the 90 day no compete clause (as Andrade did) but there's no guarantee the request will be granted. Meanwhile more releases (possibly from NXT) are expected today. (WO)

CMLL made the decision to not book Bandido any more because he would have AAA wrestlers appear at his gym, and when they asked him to cancel those appearances, he refused. (WO)

MLW's new television deal won't affect their ongoing presence on beIN Sports and DAZN. (WO)
