Mick FoleyHere's an update from Mick Foley on his COVID-19 recovery: "Many of you have been asking how I'm feeling after my positive COVID test. All in all, not too bad - but I get fatigued very easily, and my head still feels a little cloudy. PLEASE take this pandemic seriously - the daily death count is staggeringly high.. and climbing."

After appearing on AEW Dark last night, AJ Kirsch confirmed he's no longer with MLW and thanked them for the time and opportunities he received.

This year's New Japan Cup starts on March 5th with the finals to take place March 20th and 21st.

In a statement (in German) on their website, wXw announced they won't have a 16 Carat Gold tournament this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
