Speaking to Busted Open Radio, Matt Hardy says there were WWE angles Jeff did that were in bad taste: "Even when my brother was back, and he'd obviously had his struggles over the years with addiction and alcohol, the most recent obviously. When they put him on TV and put him in like an addict-alcoholism angle and story, I feel like those are in bad taste. I think you won't be seeing that as much now that Triple H is in charge. That's something you would never see underneath Tony Khan. He's very forward-thinking, very progressive, and he realizes people who have these real-life struggles, you have to separate them. You really shouldn't abuse them and make light of them on your television product."

Raw highlights and WWE related videos are available below.

AEW related videos are available here.

A retirement is looming as Mike Bucci (Nova a/k/a Simon Dean) will have his last match December 3rd for Stand Alone Wrestling. He'll team with Aron Stevens (f/k/a Damien Sandow) and a partner TBD against Matt Cardona, Brian Myers and another westler TBD.

WWE has released a statement on the passing of Humberto Garza Sr.: "WWE is saddened to learn of the passing of Humberto Garza Sr. Garza Sr. is the patriarch of an incredible wrestling dynasty, with his grandsons Angel & Humberto now competing in WWE as the tag team Los Lotharios. A leader in the Mexican wrestling community, Garza Sr. competed in the EMLL from the 1950s into the 1970s. WWE offers its heartfelt condolences to the family, friends and fans of Humberto Garza Sr."

Samoan SWAT Team vs. FBI is now set for MLW Fightland on Oct. 30th.

Kazuchika Okada wants to train the next generation of wrestling stars: "I want to create stars who will lead New Japan in the future. In order to create a star, it is faster if a star teaches a star, isn't it? Besides, I myself did not originally come to New Japan as a member of the wrestling elite. Although I entered the world after graduating from junior high school, I did not have a spectacular record in amateur wrestling like other wrestlers. When I first joined Toryumon, I couldn't even do 500 squats and everyone around me kept telling me that I was no good. I am proud to say that I have something to teach a wide range of people because of this experience. I want to give back to New Japan Pro Wrestling by raising the next top person myself."

Baron Corbin likes what Paul "Triple H" Levesque brings to the table: "He thrived during the Attitude Era. I think he's bringing some of that attitude and pushing the envelope, and bringing the aggressiveness back to WWE, and I think it's an awesome thing. He wants to keep the entertainment as well, that's the art, the art is to stay entertaining. I am not just a big bad guy that's tough and beats everybody up, how can we do it and be entertaining, and funny, and witty? But then, also you want people to be in the audience and go, 'Dude, I want nothing to do with that guy in an alleyway.'"

Shawn Michaels talks about holding big NXT shows outside of the Performance Center: "Absolutely. As you mentioned, we started with the Florida loop, or the coconut loop, as we call them. We've briefly discussed getting out for our premium live events. Do we want to do that at the end of the year or start at the beginning of the new year? We had Stand & Deliver for WrestleMania weekend, which is the first time many of our talents were out of the Performance Center. It's certainly something we want to get back to. We have every intention of doing that. We're actually having talks on how we want to go about executing that. This will go beyond shows in the state of Florida for certainly premium live events but regular live events. As you know, that is part of the developmental process. They have to get out there and perform on the main roster all around the world. They might as well get their feet wet in NXT."

Eddie Kingston talks about representation in AEW: "That's the whole point at the end of the day. We are supposed to inspire people. We're in a position to help people. That's what I like doing. I always make sure to tell people I'm a mutt because I grew up in a time when it wasn't cool to be a mutt."

Jon Moxley talks about his mentality before and after rehab: "A year ago, I wasn't in the same head space. I was all fucked up. I hated traveling. I was living in Vegas, felt like I was always in an airport, flying coast to coast, and I was sick of leaving my family. I thought about freelancing when my deal was up. Not that I would leave AEW, but I didn't want to be there every week. I was in a bad place. Then I went to rehab and all that, and now I'm in a totally different headspace. We're living in Cincinnati, too, which is great. I look forward to going to TV every week. I get to see my friends in the Blackpool Combat Club. I'm not fucked up. I have a clean headspace. My life is completely different than it was a year ago, and all for the better."
