NXT highlights and new WWE related videos are available below.

In addition new AEW related videos are below.

In this interview Gangrel teases he's training another MMA star besides Paige VanZant: "Yes, one of them is Paige VanZant, although she's ghosted on me for a few days. But she'll be back in the mix. She's definitely one of them. Then there's another lady, I don't think I can mention her name yet until she gets out of the contract she's in right now. But she definitely looks like she'll be popping up somewhere, one of the big companies soon. Out of the two, I am going to say that the girl I am training today is more passionate than her. Paige is just so extremely talented. I'd hate to go out on a limb and say it's business, but I don't feel the same passion that the girl I am training today has. But no, she's passionate. To give up and walk away from her other career, she's definitely passionate about it and stuff like that."

Here Alan Angels talks about his 2020 match with Kenny Omega: "The funny thing is, we were actually slated for four (minutes), which is the crazy part because we went way over, but if anybody can go over, it's him. I met up with him, we started talking about the match, originally, we planned a four minute match, but then he kept adding stuff that he wanted to do and I was like, 'I don't think this is going to be four minutes,' but I'm not going to say no because this is my chance. Once we planned it all, we went out there and just did it. It went about six minutes and 30 seconds. Everybody says, 'He went ten minutes with Alan Angels,' it was only six minutes, guys, come on. He was super giving that day and I owe my career to, I have four people in mind that I owe my career to, and he's definitely on the list. A lot of negativity towards that match, but a lot of positive stuff, too. I definitely got more bookings out that and I got a job out of it. I'm not mad about it."

Via social media Jack Evans said his AEW run is coming to an end: "My time with AEW has been a fun and enjoyable but it has come to an end as I will not be re-signed when my contract ends at the end of April. I'd like to thank everyone at AEW and the AEW fans for the opportunity."

In this interview Josh Alexander explains why he renewed his deal with IMPACT Wrestling: "I've always been bothered that IMPACT has been used as a stepping stone. To me, that's a knock against the company. I had other options, but I chose to stay with IMPACT Wrestling. I never wanted to leave. Brandi calling me out in AEW, that prompted the news cycle to think I was going to AEW, but I never wanted to leave IMPACT."
