Thanks to the NBA Playoffs lead-in, the opening AEW Rampage match of Aussie Open vs. Best Friends peaked at 1.466 million viewers, the single biggest quarter hour segment since CM Punk's AEW debut. (WO) Taking advantage of this news, AO's Mark Davis said he's got the "Wembley headliner" for Tony Khan.

Speaking of Wembley, Saraya talks about returning to the United Kingdom: "I haven't performed in the UK in years. And then to be on one of the biggest stages you can get over there, Wembley Stadium, it's just a very wild opportunity. It does have that WrestleMania 1 vibe where this is something really special. I feel so fortunate that I get to be a part of history. I would love to face Jamie Hayter. That would be amazing, because she's also from the UK - I've had the opportunity to be in a tag and triple threat, but not a singles match, and I would love that opportunity. Do we open that Forbidden Door? Mercedes Moné, I would love to face her there. That would be such a full circle moment. There's so much opportunity there."

The Iron Sheik episode of WWE: Biography on A&E did 452,000 viewers, down only slightly from 461,000 for Dusty Rhodes. The 18-49 demo stayed exactly the same at 0.14. (SBD)

Via social media Hangman Page said reports he doesn't take advice are greatly exaggerated: "The reports that I 'don't take advice' have been greatly exaggerated, perhaps by no one more so than me. Advice and feedback, particularly from those who have come before, have always been and always will be welcomed and appreciate. My self-deprecating and dry insistence otherwise just comes from a place of being more personally interested in wrestling as an art than a sport. It would've been hollow for Picasso to try to paint a Mona Lisa. I kinda thought I'd have been asked about it by now and could've clarified. I just wouldn't want any of the older generation, especially those whose work with us is vital and unknown to fans, to feel that their wisdom is dismissed. I am also still in search of the cheese puffs. Let me know if you find them. Thank you."

Raven says Tommy Dreamer is misinformed about his health: "My health is fine. Honestly, like, I think what the problem was, is in his interview, Tommy lives in a work shoot world. Like it's a half work half shoot to him. And in his mind, Raven and Dreamer really went to summer camp together and fought over Beulah. And he was triumphing because he married her, I guess. I think what he meant to come across and say is, that I can't wrestle, because I just had my knees replaced and I'm gonna have my shoulder replaced this year, so I can't wrestle now. And it'd be at least a year of recovery for my shoulder replacement and then he added the working part, where he's like, you know, I don't know if I gave him a, you know, cause damage in the chair shot heard around the world so half shooting, half working. But if that one chair shot was what gave me brain damage. I mean, if I had brain damage, I'm sure I have some damage. Obviously, I think all wrestlers do from all the chair shots and head and drugs we take. But, you know to make it seem like that I have brain damage, like excessive brain damage where its affecting my life, which it doesn't. And obviously, you can see I'm clear headed. And he started talking about boxers and how boxers, you know, when they start out there, he can't watch boxing movies, because their videos because they start out clear speaking but then they get they start slurring their words at the end of their career. And somehow all that got boxed in together, and it came across like that's what was happening to me. And I know he didn't mean it that way. He was just trying to capitalize on you know, on the story, the storyline that he's telling for Impact, where he's, trying to forsake, hardcore-ness to an extent or something. I'm not sure exactly. I haven't followed it. But I was gonna have him rebuttal it, rebut it, you know, and just retract it. But then I figured he wouldn't be able to explain it as clearly because he doesn't know my life, like I know my life. You know what I mean? Yeah, I'm in good health. I'm just suffering injuries from my career. You know, the shoulder replacement I probably needed for 10, 15 years. I haven't had a lot of big injuries. But I've had a couple, I herniated three discs in my lower back. I had my left shoulder replaced in 2013 and it was so painful that I said that's it I'm not getting the right one either replacing too but I'm like I'm not getting that until i absolutely have to and now I absolutely have to. Then I got to two knees replaced last year. And then I should be a perfectly healthy young man and or old young man. I still feel like I'm 28 inside. I'm 58 but I feel 28 and I probably have the organs of a 78 year old."

Steve Maclin talks about his journey to Impact World Champion: "From dirt holes in Afghanistan to winning the Impact world title, this is something I'll hold on to. I was never a chosen one. I came to Impact and I've worked my ass off. I kept my head down, I kept grinding, and this is only the beginning. The easy work is over. Now the head work begins. Whether you believe in me or not, I'm out there proving people wrong. That's the way it's always been, and it's not going to change now."

Here's a new David Finlay interview.

It seems that WWE and the talent have come to a new agreement about Twitch streaming "with very few limitations" and "the lion's share" of revenue going to the streamers and Twitch as a platform. The only restriction will be that talent need to get WWE approval before taking any sponsorships for their live streams from other companies, which doesn't seem unreasonable. (FF)
