Big ESpeaking to TMZ, Big E said he's okay with not wrestling again if that's his future: "It's really one of those 'wait and see' things. I really can't say. I don't know whether I'll be back in March at 100% or if they'll look at say, 'Maybe you should be doing something else with your life.' For me, March of next year is very far off, so I don't want to spend a lot of time worrying and stressing about that. I've been with this company for 13 years. That means a lot of Saturdays and Sundays in Poughkeepsie and Kalamazoo and most random towns. But, now I get to live my life a little bit and see some friends and I'm enjoying just being human. Honestly, my philosophy as a human being is learning to be content with whatever life brings you. I'm so grateful to not be in a wheelchair, but if I was, I would have to adjust to life in a wheelchair. That's just how I am programmed. If I spend hours or days or weeks kind of mourning where I'm at in life, and not being what I wanted to be, that doesn't serve me."

Sasha Banks (Mercedes Varnado) has told promoters looking to book her for wrestling conventions that she will not accept such bookings before 2023 and that for this year she's only looking to do non-wrestling conventions. There's no word on whether or not this is contractual due to a WWE non compete or her own personal preference on the matter. Her actual status with WWE is still undetermined at this time. (FF)

Billy Gunn says he has two different AEW contracts at the same time: "Yeah, they have to do two contracts because they can't loop them all together. You can't loop the employee and talent because it's, you know, a self-employed kind of deal. So, in reality, yeah, you'd like to just have one contract that says you do different things, but for some reason, you can't do it that way for business bookkeeping or whatever." So basically he has one deal as a performer and another deal specifically for his backstage role.

WWE related videos are available below.

In addition new AEW related videos are here.

Here Kofi Kingston talks about the Viking Raiders turning heel: "They used to be these fun-loving guys. I thought they liked having a good time but apparently, over the past month or so or whatever, they've become serious Vikings now. So now we're having to deal with that. They hate fun all of a sudden, I just can't figure out why. Like, who hates fun? They're not really in line with the fun-loving Viking nature that I know about, and maybe I don't know everything about Vikings. Maybe they know more than me, but it seems like they do have a problem. Both of the Viking Raiders are incredibly talented in the ring. So, from our perspective, being able to show up at work and know that you're going to have a good match - you know what I'm saying - have a great match, is a great thing."
