BayleyIn this interview Bayley proclaims herself a fan of Britt Baker: "I love Britt. She's awesome and everything she's doing is really cool, so I can't even hate on her. I've heard a podcast where she talked about it and there's no hard feelings, there's no disrespect and I only want the best for her because as a role model that's how you're supposed to react to these type of things. So, go get 'em Britt Baker."

Here Chelsea Green talks about getting a cease and desist on her podcast name: "On Tuesday May 11, I received a surprising email from my lawyer and it read, 'Chelsea, much to our surprise, we received the attached cease and desist letter concerning your use of 50 Shades of Green trademark concerning your podcast and merchandise. As you know from this letter, the complaining party is the owner of 50 Shades of Grey, the brand. My gut tells me they are not going away and they certainly had deep pockets to fight this.' The real fucking 50 Shades of Grey cares about me and this podcast. 'Christian Grey, what are you going to do, handcuff me? How about we make up a safe word, Mr. Grey. How about cease and fucking desist.'"

New WWE related clips are available below.

Here's what happened on Main Event last night: Naomi and Lana defeated Dana Brooke and Mandy Rose when Naomi pinned Brooke, and Mansoor defeated Cedric Alexander. (wInc)

New Japan Pro-Wrestling has announced a card for Strong this Friday.

Main event: No Disqualification- Hikuleo vs Fred Rosser

Fred Rosser and Hikuleo have been at one another's throats since their very first interaction on NJPW STRONG. With the young arrogant Hikuleo and BULLET CLUB representing everything Mr. No Days Off takes a stand against, it should come as no small wonder that two of the biggest men and hardest hitters would target one another as soon as they met in tag team action months ago. Their interactions would lead to a singles bout during New Beginning USA, a match that Rosser won, but with a rare desperation pull of the hair, bending the rules to try and turn the tide of a match that the Young Gun had dominated.

Hikuleo was hungry for revenge, and demanded the two face off in the first round of New Japan Cup USA, a match Hikuleo won after brutally attacking his opponent on the outside of the ring before the bell even rang. Fast forward to last Friday night on Collision, and the final bell wasn't enough to stop Hikuleo and Rosser brawling around ringside as ringside attendants and furniture was scattered. It's clear regular rules cannot settle the score between Hikuleo and Fred Rosser, so week three of Collision will see a no disqualification match to finally determine who the better man is on Friday nights.

2nd Match: Brody King & Karl Fredericks vs Team Filthy (JR Kratos & Danny Limelight)

As Team Filthy leader Tom Lawlor gets set to defend the STRONG Openweight Championship against Chris Dickinson next week, the only two remaining members of the fight team in JR Kratos and Danny Limelight take on Karl Fredericks and Brody King Friday. Last week, Team Filthy's number was reduced to three after Chris Dickinson was expelled from the group with a Limelight low blow, despite picking up the elimination main event victory for the team. Now Kratos and Limelight will seek to prove that they can still operate like a fight dream.

Meanwhile Fredericks and King are hungry for revenge. Both were eliminated, by Limelight and Kratos respectively, last week in controversial form after a distraction saw King thrown out of the ring, and Fredericks was pulled off the apron by the man he'd already eliminated in Limelight. With no tope rope ruling and no distractions at ringside, who is the better team Friday?

1st Match: Alex Coughlin vs Bateman

Starting the night's action, Alex Coughlin faces the returning Bateman. Always motivated and aggressive in the ring, Coughlin gained additional motivation through last week's main event. There, Clark Connors proved he was a Young Lion no more, and debuted an all new look as the ‘Wild Rhino'. With Connors and Karl Fredericks now both having graduated, Coughlin is the last of Katsuyori Shibata's original class still in black trunks, and progress slowed by injury or no, is eager to prove that he can join his seniors in the top flight.

To do so however, would mean getting the upper hand on competition like the demented veteran Bateman. On his prior appearances on STRONG, Bateman has shown evidence of a mean streak a mile wide, but he too is looking for a convincing victory on Friday nights. Bateman will look to make a stepping stone of Coughlin, who will want to show he is nothing of the sort this week.

Johnny Gargano talks about switching from face to heel: "I loved it. I couldn't wait for it. I felt like I was stagnant for a little bit. If you do anything for so long, you get bored after a while. I felt like there was another side of me that I hadn't had a chance to show yet and I was keeping it inside. People don't remember that I was a heel on the Indies forever. That was the main thing I did. To have this underdog babyface role was new for me. I love the challenge. People see me as the underdog babyface and I want to be like, 'if you think that's all I am, you haven't seen anything yet. I'm going to turn that upside down, inside out, and create something new.' I remember when this was being talked about, I wrote a document saying ‘this is what I will dress as, this is what the music will sound like, here's different stories we can do.' I had this long e-mail that I sent to Hunter and the writers. I couldn't wait to have this different incarnation of me and show the world this side of me. I'm having the time of my life doing it."

Mr. T talks about his relationship with WWE: "I still got stuff going on with WWE. I got Mr. T dolls and stuff like that. They selling the goods and stuff like that. What I tell people is I never considered myself a Hollywood celebrity. I don't act. I react. I'm just a tough guy that has the opportunity to play some roles in Hollywood. I'm not any different. I was never a guy that made the guest appearances in wrestling. That's who I am. I love wrestling. In high school, I played football. I liked the tough sports. I like man-to-man stuff. Throwing the guy, flipping the guy, running through and driving. I wasn't a wussy when it came to that. I can take a punch. I can give it, and that's what it's about. Maybe I was more of wrestler than an actor, more tough guy than I was an actor so that's the part I like. That's why I will still go to wrestling matches, still go to boxing matches. That's what I love. I can make a guest appearance here and there. Right now, I got some toys and dolls with wrestling. I still watch on TV. I might appear somewhere here and there. Never know what Vince has in mind because he's always thinking of something, but my job is to be ready when they call, so that's what I've been doing. I've been training, getting ready. So when they call me, I'll be ready."

Nick Gage wants to mix it up with Jon Moxley: "We're definitely wrestling one-on-one. I want to get him in the ring one-on-one. I don't want to sit there and fucking jump his ass. I want him in the ring. I want to see if he wants to get fucking down. All that other shit, you know that's fake glass and cut barbed wire, we don't do that shit. We got barbed wire and real fucking glass. We're gonna find out if he wants to fucking go because that shit is going to burn."

Lanny Poffo a/k/a The Genius has some fact corrections for A&E's bio of Randy Savage. Who would know better than the Macho Man's own brother?

Here's another http://si.com/wrestling/2021/05/18/wwe-nxt-johnny-gargano-heel-bronson-reed-cage-match Johnny Gargano interview.

5:00 PM ET. The Miz thinks John Morrison should be competing for world titles. Certainly moreso than Mike Mizanin, so I'll give him that much.

Sean Waltman says he has a few more matches left in him.

Cory Guerrero has been posthumously inducted into the El Paso Athletic Hall of Fame. (PWI) He's the father of Eddie, Chavo Sr., Mondo and Hector Guerrero.
