CM PunkVia social media CM Punk thanked everyone for their support: "Every day I'm in a ring, in front of a live audience, is time I never thought I'd have back. I treat ever second like it's my last. Not sure how long I have left, but I will leave it all out there. Thanks to everyone who supports."

A new AEW Dynamite video regarding the Inner Circle is below.

The National Wrestling Alliance is looking to relaunch the Crockett Cup: "Is your team looking for an opportunity? We love Tag Team Wrestling & feature some of the best in the world. But WE WANT MORE. Think you have what it takes for the 2022 Crockett Cup? Think you know a team that does? Now is the time to prove it."

Here's a preview for this weekend's episode of Ring of Honor TV. (ROH)

This weekend's special episode of Ring of Honor Wrestling features the classic match between Jonathan Gresham and Jay Lethal for the original ROH World Title belt from the Final Battle: End of an Era pay-per-view last month.

Also on this episode is the ROH Women's World Title Match from Final Battle between defending champion Rok-C and Willow.

The originally scheduled main event for Final Battle was an ROH World Title match between defending champion Bandido and Gresham. However, Bandido tested positive for COVID-19 two days before the show.

Lethal, a two-time former ROH World Champion who had signed with All Elite Wrestling the month prior, returned to ROH for one night to face Gresham, his longtime friend. The winner of the match would be awarded the original ROH World Championship belt.

It was fitting that Lethal, who for years was known as "The Franchise of ROH," would wrestle in the main event of the last Final Battle of this era of ROH.

For Gresham, a victory over Lethal on the historic show would further validate his case for being the best pro wrestler in the world.

The ROH Women's World Title Match at Final Battle featured two of the most popular stars in the division.

Rok-C took a 6-0 record in singles competition in ROH into the match against Willow, who had defeated Mandy Leon in a No. 1 contender's match to earn the title shot.

Tonight's 205 Live lineup is below. (WWE)

* Anthony Draco vs. Joe Gacy
* Josh Briggs vs. Damon Kemp
* Yulisa Leon and Valentina Feroz vs. Amari Miller and Lash Legend

Becky Lynch wants a math with Beth Phoenix: "I've been tweeting that frickin' Beth Phoenix trying to get her to fight me for years. She keeps saying no, she keeps dodging it. I think she's scared. Yes. Yes I would love to fight Beth Phoenix."

From WWE: "WWE announced that its Board of Directors today declared the Company's regular quarterly dividend of $0.12 per share for all Class A and B shares of common stock. The record date for the dividend will be March 15, 2022 and the payment date will be March 25, 2022."

WWE executive Amanda Tustian exited on the company on Thursday. Tustian was the Director of Over the Top Content Operations for WWE Network. (PWI)

Trish Stratus talks about WWE's changed approach to the women's division: "Of course, it's collaborative efforts for sure. But I mean, it really was, it was a lane of groundwork. And from the beginning it was, it was everything from re-educating fans on what to expect from the female performer. It was the acceptance of the fans. It was the acceptance of the producers backstage for them to go 'Okay, maybe we can give them this.' You know, I remember one time, to have a hardcore match was like, was a big deal mostly because 'I don't think that they can handle it.' 'Well, why can't we handle it, if they can handle it? We can handle it too.'"

A new Ring of Honor documentary can be found below.

In addition here's the latest MLW Azteca.

In this interview Sheamus talks about winning the Royal Rumble 10 years ago: "I was going into the biggest moment in my career, and I woke up with a stye in my eye. It was the most stressful thing ever. It threw me off for most of the day. I tried to use a hot rag. It didn't start out too good, but the match went great. I had the thing with Jericho at the end where it went a couple of minutes. It was a great ending. I've won multiple championships, but not many people can say they won the Royal Rumble. To me, in the grand scheme of things, becoming a Royal Rumble winner is the hardest thing to do."

The latest Before The Impact is below.

Here Seth Rollins talks about his match with Roman Reigns: "I'm extremely confident I'll beat Roman Reigns, based on our past history. Yeah, you can look at it and say he's in a different place now. Well I'm in a different place too. We're both very much at the top of our game, the best versions of ourselves, and have been improving on the same arc. I definitely feel like I've gotten inside his head. I've rattled him a little bit. I may be the only person who can do that on our modern roster."

GCW is bringing back For The Culture at The Collective this year.

Brie Bella is nervous about the Royal Rumble: "I'm nervous. I was counting down the days before I left on my mirror in red lipstick. And at the bottom, it says 'no regrets.' There were also other things written like 'no alcohol, no carbs.' I just felt the butterflies in my stomach. We have such a hardcore fan base in the Bella Army. I never want to let them down. I also don't want to let myself down. I'm also bringing my daughter who will be watching. This will be her first time seeing it live with me where she understands. It's just a lot of pressure, but I feel ready. You want to go out there and impress everyone. You want to be perfect. That always comes with nerves."

Kofi Kingston talks about Mustafa Ali requesting his WWE release: "It's kind of crazy because it's a really complicated industry. I feel for him. I feel for him because I understand the frustrations he's going through and I feel like somebody who is so incredibly talented should always be afforded the opportunity to shine. He hasn't really necessarily been given that. That is one of the most unfortunate natures of our industry. I don't know how to change that. It's been like that for quite some time. I guess we'll see where it all goes. I'm a firm believer in everything happening for a reason and when it's all said and done, he will have grown from this whole experience, for sure. I don't know where it's going to end. I don't know where it's going to go, but he'll always have my support in terms of my desire to want to see him do well because he is so incredibly talented, not just in the ring, but outside the ring too. As a person, someone who wants to have a major impact on the world. I'm hoping that he's able to find some peace in the situation and when all the cards fall... he's going to be fine regardless, but I hope he's able to find happiness at the end of it when it's all said and done with the light at the end of the tunnel. Regardless of what happens, there are going to be big things for him and his future."
